Thank you for joining me for the first ever episode of Influencers. For the past eight years, I’ve made it my career to bring together some of the most extraordinary people in our culture. I started a secret dining experience where twelve people are invited at a time. They are not allowed to talk about what they do or give their last name. They cook dinner together and when they sit down to eat, everybody gets to guess what everybody else does. As a byproduct, I have had the absolute pleasure of sitting and talking to some of the most extraordinary people in our culture, ranging from Nobel Laureates and Olympic medalists to members of royalty and editors-in-chief of the top magazines in the world.


Out of that, one of the things I committed to doing was creating this podcast. I felt that the wisdom of my guests, their experience, knowledge and stories were something that needed to be shared and that hopefully, by understanding what they went through and how their career was created, it could possibly impact the lives of anybody who would listen.
