Welcome back to Behind Greatness. Today we are speaking with Dimitry from his office in Estonia. In this conversation we are treated to a battle-ridden, caterpillar to butterfly story. Dimitry brings us through his ideas formed through his experience living under a Communist regime to a zealous video gaming obsession to selling books door-to-door to building a truly international bespoke fashion house. Along the way, we learn about the power of “being delusional”, the skills learned to diffuse a bomb and how to make yourself allergic to shrimp. We discuss growing up in a system where lying is the tool of ruling , the predictability of seduction, being more interesting, the right dose of desperation, creativity of the entrepreneurial mind and the power of being at chaos’ edge.

Warning: hard lessons to be learned here.

Have a listen to a bad-ass who lived under incarceration in a communist regime: Luis Zuniga (ep 115).

See here other entrepreneurial luminaries: Alex Rechichi (ep20), Matt Rizzetta (ep43), Anthony DiIorio (45), Ryan Albright (ep50), Mike Fata (ep77), Edoardo Ghignone (ep91), Doug Putnam (ep119), Anthony Scilipoti (128 ), Werner Barkhuizen (ep162)
