Talking to important people can feel intimidating, so in this edition of the 5 Minute Pick Me Up, we decided to talk about why it’s actually easier than most people think.

Sergei tells a story of how he navigated a conversation with a billionaire, and we dive into some of the things we learned in our recent conversations with leaders of major companies in our Scaling Mentorship series, to hear their thoughts on approaching seemingly unapproachable people.

Part of it has to do with understanding real vs. perceived risk, a topic we talked about in more detail this Friday on the Jordan Harbinger Show.
