Book: Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker -
Daniel began his career in M&A law at a large firm and then went to the deal team of a Shark on the TV show, drafting contracts and due diligence. He saw many small companies grow so quickly their people burned out, inspiring a passion for the human side of business. He left law to train as an executive coach and built a few companies in the coaching industry, failing once, and then selling another (which served the legal industry). At Fireside, he leverages his experience with M&A and org psych to build a mental health business without burnout. Daniel studied Law at McGill University and Psychology at Columbia University (Teacher’s College). He is a world traveler and veteran of 2 extreme auto races, driving a Fiat from London to Mongolia and a rickshaw the length of India.
