At 44, serial entrepreneur Daniel Priestley received a Christmas Eve phone call that changed everything - his doctor warned him about dangerously high pancreas levels, forcing him to confront the health he'd taken for granted while building seven companies. This vulnerable conversation reveals how a successful entrepreneur making millions discovered that true wealth means nothing without vitality, and why he believes comfort is the enemy of greatness in your forties. Daniel shares his raw journey from overlooking health as "self-indulgent" to understanding it as the foundation for everything else, while exploring the deeper lessons he wants his kids to learn beyond money. If you've been coasting in your comfort zone, wondering what skills your kids actually need for life, or feeling like something's off even though your business is doing well, Daniel's brutal honesty will hit you right where you need it.
