Imagine having to choose between your career and your faith.
That’s what Cliff Sims was facing as his political career progressed all the way into the Trump White House. After starting and exiting a successful media company, Cliff joined the Trump Presidential campaign and eventually served in the West Wing.
Cliff is a super impressive guy that went from college basketball player to professional musician, to founding a media company (and selling it), to serving president in the White House, to CEO of a huge marketing agency. Oh, he’s done even more crazy shit too and we talk about it all on the pod.
Cliff’s New York Times best selling book ‘Team of Vipers,’ chronicles his time working in the White House and how he was able to navigate some of the most tumultuous moments of his life…. as well as the tough personal decisions he had to employ to compete for the president’s attention. It’s an insane story.
So if you’re curious with an unfiltered look at what life was actually like inside the Trump White House, this conversation is a must-listen.
