How to Avoid Mental Hijacks, Training To Be More Present And Clearing The Mind With Writer & Instigator Kyle Creek, a.k.a, The Captain
Today I’m speaking with writer, creator and instigator Kyle Creek, a.k.a, The Captain. "As a kid, I wanted to be a cowboy. Then, my mom bought me a skateboard and I got on with my life. In college, I decided copywriting was the career move for me and, for the last decade, I’ve held a variety of creative positions both in-house and within agency settings. I’ve also published five books, spoken at events around the country, and educated the masses about shark dating as the host of “Shark Sex 101” for Discovery Channel’s ever-popular Shark Week series. My only regret in life is being just a grammar gunslinger and not an actual cowboy. I don’t even own a horse.” _____ Get your copy of Personal Socrates: Better Questions, Better Life Connect with Marc >>> Website | LinkedIn | Instagram | Twitter Drop a review and let me know what's resonating with you about the show!
