In this episode of Beyond the Pitch, Tim Roper sits down with Danny Li, host of The Danny Li Podcast, to explore leadership through the lens of military wisdom and real-world practice. Danny shares his journey from immigrating from Ukraine to building a fast-growing show that features generals, admirals, and public servants. He opens up about how mentorship from senior officers shaped his five- and ten-year goals, why true leaders put team and mission first, and how humility, discipline, and trust translate directly into business.

You will hear how Danny booked his first two-star general, built systems for consistent production, and grew his audience from a few hundred to over 20 thousand. Tim and Danny dig into the overlap between military and business leadership, handling pressure without panic, creating shared values, and starting with self-awareness before leading others. They also talk about love of country, unity across differences, and the legacy Danny hopes to leave as a storyteller who brings people together.
