In this episode, Dave Charlson, Executive Coach at IKON Coaching Group, explains his experiences with failure when the mortgage bubble burst at the same time that his personal life was falling apart. Here’s how those dual failures led him to finding authenticity in his business dealings and satisfaction in his life overall.

Wade Myers is the Founder of Boldmore Growth Partners—but that doesn’t even begin to describe his vast experience as an entrepreneur and investor.

But out of that difficulty, Wade developed a predictive methodology to predict corporate failure and success. In this episode, he shares part of that methodology, as well as the whole story behind his failure and the many critical lessons he learned from it.
