152: How to become the best version of yourself | with Frank Canace

Frank Canace simultaneously worked as a police officer by night and defense attorney by day, giving him a unique perspective of both sides of the Constitution. In my conversation with Frank, we discover how he considered both jobs to be a “labor of love”  and the lessons he learned from these professions help him in his current career of life coach. His is an amazing story.
