Ari opens up about the soul-crushing failures that shaped him, why he believes "failure is how we learn to win," and the meditation practices that keep him grounded as he runs a major firm and raises three children. From a single catastrophic week where an ice storm destroyed his Super Bowl event and a Legionnaires' disease outbreak cancelled his Playboy Mansion party to the wisdom he's drawn from Tony Robbins, Dr. Joe Dispenza, and Nelson Mandela—Ari shares hard-earned lessons on resilience, ownership, and the difference between pain and suffering.
If you've ever felt stuck after a setback or wondered how successful people actually think, this conversation will change the way you see your own struggles.
