Every episode of Influencers, we meet two inspiring and influential people who are shaping our culture and changing their industry. Together we will discover what lead to their success, and how you can impact yours. But there is a catch. The second interview is anonymous. And if you can figure out who it is before we reveal it in the following podcast, you can win a coveted invitation to the Influencers Salon. The winner will have an opportunity to spend an evening meeting the most important tastemakers and thought leaders in our culture. Now, prepare to be Influenced.

Welcome to Influencers! For those of you who listened to the last episode, you know that we have Brian with us.

April 25, 2017 08:21 - 10 minutes - 12.2 MB

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.
