Dive into Dan's riveting 23-year journey, where through grit, vulnerability, and invaluable mentorship, he battles his personal and professional demons and discovers the essence of living with purpose and the transformative power of collaboration.

In this episode, Dan Heuertz shares his journey as an entrepreneur for the past 23 years and how a deep betrayal and health scare led him to be diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis. This rare condition affects the central nervous system. He talks about how he was faced with the decision between open heart surgery or waiting three weeks for a robotic-assisted machine and how it changed his outlook on life. Dan also details his experience convincing 64 entities to agree to his deal in just three days - which was made possible through courage, honesty, determination, and authenticity.
