Winning The Moment
Hosted by Cody Adent · EN
Would you walk away from a game of checkers after being jumped one time? Of course not. You still have eighteen pieces left and plenty of opportunities to win. But as adults, we lose sight of life's entire board. Once we mess up, we think the game is over. Winning the Moment is a guide to living the life you want and becoming the person you want to be.
On this podcast, Cody will interview different people from all walks of life and backgrounds. Cody will be asking what is their biggest win, biggest lost, routine, mentor, and most importantly how do they define success?
