Using Life Lessons in Business | Ely Santos

Ely Santos is an amazing entrepreneur with an amazing and somewhat scary story, but I think that scary story really evolves into showing who Ely is. He’s an international business success working with B to B tech companies and he’s really making waves here in the US market. Being from and in Brazil, he has agreed to come onto this podcast and talk to me about a fantastic story that happened when he was just 10 years old. Ely is wonderful at painting this picture for us and at the same time, I think it’s important for us to contextualize what’s happening as these stories of youth often translate into what causes us to be successful and tenacious now.

“ I remember there were certain things that I didn’t expect to change, but it did, like the way people treated me, it totally changed, especially my friends. Their parents didn’t want them hanging out with me because I was a son of a prisoner. I was the son of a criminal.” 5:31
