On today’s episode, we are so excited to be joined by Dan Zagorin. Dan was born and raised in Skokie, Illinois, graduated from the University of Iowa with a bachelors in Sociology, and then went on to trade at the Chicago Board of Trade for 25 years with the last 17 years in front of a computer. Dan has four children: 2 older boys from his first marriage and 2 young girls with his wife who now reside in Lincoln Park, Illinois. You can find Dan spending most of his time with his family, whether he’s walking his kids to school, playing bridge, or volunteering in various non profits all while trying to sell a home or 2. Tune in to hear:

• Dan shares insights from his childhood where his fear of failure limited him from trying his best

• Dan talks about his journey of becoming a trader, a career that he loved but decided to walk away from when it no longer sparked joy or fun

• Dan discusses how he finally said yes to going to a men’s retreat and the transformation that occurred from being in a space where he was seen and heard

• Dan now works with the non for profit organization, Victories, to help other men feel seen and to do the work to show up as their true selves
