ABOUT THIS EPISODE
After his college graduation, Mike hit the road in an RV to interview leaders across America about how they got to where they are today. On today’s episode I talk to Mike Marriner, President and Cofounder of Roadtrip Nation, about how that powerful trip led to the development of a social enterprise and the opportunities it creates for students across America to take road trips that empower them to define their own roads in life.
We’re exploring:
- The library of 8K videos over 18 yrs that they have created and 3 of Mike’s most memorable interviews
- How a huge time-out after medical school and one long drive created a movement!
- Why social media as a tool could be holding you back from making connections
- How Mike got past the gatekeepers and got his foot in the door with some important people
- A big lesson he learned about documenting his ideas
- How an opportunity from Nike’s Vice President propelled their enterprise forward
- The release of the book, Roadtrip Nation: A Guide to Discovering Your Road in Life, and what that did for their visibility
- How they have incorporated a project-based learning curriculum and what their non-profit is doing for underserved communities
- One of the MOST IMPORTANT factors in career success and how it is not equitably distributed
- What Mike believes everyone needs on their career journey and how Roadtrip Nation can help make that connection
- And more!
