This week on Let Fear Bounce, I’m joined by David Asarnow, an entrepreneur, mentor, and someone who’s built success by focusing just as much on people as performance.

David has helped grow multiple companies to eight-figure revenues, and today, through his work with Business Nitrogen, he helps others do the same by combining strategy, mindset, and human connection.

But what really stands out about David isn’t just what he’s built, it’s how he’s built it. He’s shared his insights alongside names like Tony Robbins and Chet Holmes, earned multiple industry awards, and continues to lead with a simple belief: people come first.

This is a conversation about trusting your instincts, staying open to opportunity, and what it really looks like behind the scenes of success.

Today’s guest has a powerful story about perspective, resilience, and faith. Steve Garraty was a high school senior living fast and heading down a path that really wasn’t sustainable when life suddenly stopped him in his tracks, and God intervened. Life changed with three words no one wants to hear: “You have cancer.”

After a year of chemotherapy and watching his friends head off to college, Steve not only beat cancer—he completely changed his outlook on life, moving from asking “Why me?” to “Why not me?”

Today, Steve has been married to his wife Wendy for more than 30 years, is the proud father of two successful kids, and has spent his career helping others grow as a sales leader and mentor. Steve now shares his story to encourage others to shift their perspective, grow through adversity, and see the glass as full.
