"Always struggle to get on top in life – because the bottom is overcrowded!" These are the parting words of motivational speaker Les Brown in an episode of Living The Red Life that will leave you gasping for breath!Put down whatever it is that you're busy with and listen to the story of a twin born in an abandoned building in the poor section of Miami Florida, Liberty City, and grew up being labeled "DT" (Dumb Twin). The liberty Les Brown did find was freedom from not letting that story of how other people perceived him come to define him. A former member of the Ohio House of Representatives, Les is extremely well-read and has used his thirst for knowledge to empower other people to share their stories.Packed with inspiring wisdom from some of life's greatest philosophers, Les is sharing how to go from 'brick and mortar to click and order' and reveling with Rudy in the joys of having a strong work ethic and mindset. "People don't buy from you, they buy into you." Well said, Les Brown. More pearls of wisdom this side of Wonderland. Please join us. "I believe that you're never too old to learn.
