Our conversation kicks off with Doug sharing his journey, from business challenges and personal struggles to becoming an expert in breaking habits. He emphasizes the significance of habits in our lives, both positive and negative, and how being intentional about them is crucial for change.
Doug opens up about a challenging period when his business faced legal issues due to another company's misconduct, which deeply affected him and his family.
