Today's guest is a swerve from last week: our host spoke to a young agent on the rise, Regional Marketing Director Thuan Bui. We had a great talk about how important good leaders and mentors are to an entrepreneur's success — not least because they in turn teach you how to lead and mentor your future teams.

Listen to Thuan's energetic story and hear his great "bow and arrow" metaphor for overcoming setbacks in this insightful episode.
