About this episode

Balancing your career, relationships, and health can be a juggling act for a lot of us, no matter what point we’re at in our lives. Today I speak to Sahil Bloom. Sahil is the Founding Partner at $10M fund SRB Ventures, an angel investor in more than 30 companies, and over the past two years has become viral content creator with his Twitter following growing from 0 to nearly 1 million followers. He’s done all this while being a husband and father to his first child. In the conversation, we talk about how to systemise life so that you can shoot for wealth beyond money, tools for health and relationships, his journey as a content creator and life hacks to help you build a life you love.
