“If you want to be extraordinary, you have to do extraordinary things.” – Vinnie Tortorich
Join Niiamah Ashong and Vinnie Tortorich for a live coaching conversation. Vinnie’s challenge: he grew up on a bayou in southern Louisiana, became a celebrity trainer in Hollywood without knowing a soul, and created a book, a documentary, a podcast and his own vitamin and coffee companies by going around every gatekeeper. After all those leaps, he’s looking for the point one percent difference that moves him next.
You’ll walk away with:
- Why choosing for the long game at 18 still pays off decades later
- How the safest advice around you can be built for someone else’s game
- What your failure quotient says about the game you’re ready to play
