Description
Today’s show is a special one as Darius Mirshahzadeh shares his incredible backstory, and his big WHY that has inspired him to launch The Greatness Machine.
Back in 2006, Darius was riding on a high as his first business, Twin Capital Mortgage became the 40th fastest growing company in the United States. However, the economic crisis of 2007 wiped out all his hard-earned gains. The next five years were particularly tough. And by the end of 2011, Darius was distraught, in a bad place, and in a business that he did not love.
That’s when he decided to pivot to do something that did not involve chasing dollars for once.
He talks about curating the TedX Golden Gate Park in 2012-2013, and how this experience changed his life forever.
In 2014, Darius got sucked into the business world once again as he devoted his energies to The Money Source – his new venture which he scaled up from 30 to 1000 employees in 36 months.
Wanting to relive the TedX experience, Darius has once again taken a sabbatical to launch this new show which is designed to have inspiring conversations with folks who are following their passions and aspiring for greatness
