01 - Gavin Shaskolsky: How discomfort breeds success
August 6th 2018
In this, our very first episode of Seedpod, we chat to world-renowned personal development Leadership coach, facilitator, and business owner, Gavin Shaskolsky.
Gavin’s discipline and purpose has seen him not only carve out a reputation as one of, if not the, preeminent coaches in the country, but has also seen him take on incredibly strenuous physical endeavors such as desert marathons as well as several Comrades.
Throughout our conversation, Gavin inspires us with his passion for learning, growth mindset and determination to live a purpose driven life which contributes to the greater good. Enjoy!
