Join Gregory on this quick 10-minute episode as he gives a hilarious update on what the heck Vinny is up to. You'll also learn why it's important to have a

There is much we can't control in life. But if there's one thing we can control, it's honoring our word.

For many of us, it can feel like where we come from is where we're going to go; that our past defines our future; that how we were raised is by default, how we will raise or kids. It can feel like there are no options to live life differently, be it because of the society we grow up in, the family we come from, the life we're expected to live. But it doesn't have to be this way. On episode #71 of DTD, Vincent chatted with Neha Sonney, an author, coach, speaker and writer, who discusses subjects such
