Find Your Awesome with Erik Bergman

“The less we feel anger, the less we’re capable of feeling joy.”

- Erik Bergman  

Erik Bergman is a co-founder of Catena Media, a company that went from 0 to 300+ employees in five years. Under this journey Erik made more money than he will ever need in his life, but at the expense of burning himself out, as well as his business partner and fiancée, who also worked in the company. Now he has started the company Great.com. This time the focus isn't extreme growth but rather well-being, transparency, trust and flexibility for the team and where 100% of the profits will be donated to help the environment.

“A bigger part of my happiness comes from these conversations and these kinds of things, than what would come from money.”

- Erik Bergman

This episode is Epic! I’m so excited to introduce you all to Erik. It’s all here: growth, humility, and the important steps we all take along this path. Erik talks about how he has learned—and continues to learn—from the darkness he has within himself, and how that's helping him work to bring a splash of color to the world.

“So many things in my life have changed in the last couple of years because I learned how to listen.”

- Erik Bergman
