199 - From Gangster to CEO — with Ryan Blair

Ryan Blair is an entrepreneur, author, philanthropist, and most importantly, a dad. He is the founder and CEO of Alter Call, a multi-faith spiritual community that helps people accelerate personal transformation. Alter Call members value living a life of service and measurable impact. But before the philanthropy and fatherhood, Ryan had a very different life. After surviving an abusive childhood living in poverty, Ryan’s ability to adapt led him to join a gang. Though he thrived as an illegal entrepreneur, the lifestyle was taxing and dangerous. Miraculously, Ryan was able to leave that life and transition into legitimate entrepreneurship. And through hard work, sacrifice, and perseverance, he built a successful life for himself as a CEO several times over. Ryan lived that luxurious life, pleasurable vices and all until he couldn’t any longer. In this special episode, Ryan shares his incredible story and offers guidance for finding your way out of the wilderness and into a better life.
