Today, I am going to share with you a conversation I had with serial entrepreneur, author, podcast host, and inspirational speaker Ed Mylett. In this interview, I talk about why we should build and practice a morning routine to help incorporate positivity in our day, the two opposite sides of ego that we don’t know about, and how being in service of others is a reflection of inner self.
