146: Life and Leadership Lessons at 49 That I Wish I Could Tell My 29-year-old Self

How much time do you spend reflecting on your past? Do you wish you could go back and talk to your younger self? In this episode, Andrea shares five big lessons he has learnt in the past 20 years, in the hope that it can help and provide insight to those earlier on in their career.
