Join me on the second part of my interview with Adam Edelman - a long-time entrepreneur, business operator, investor, and personal mentor of mine. If you haven't heard the previous episode, I encourage you to go back and listen to it here. 

In this episode, we discuss some of the most important traits an entrepreneur should have, the role family and friends play in the business world - and whether or not to create partnerships with them - as well as why it's beneficial for new entrepreneurs to surround themselves with people that share their experience rather than their advice. 

Being an entrepreneur requires facing challenges that you don't always expect - and to survive and thrive in this world you need a certain mindset and a desire to follow your passions. Tune in to the conclusion and find out how Adam followed his passions to become the businessman and person he is today.
