What if the reason you can't articulate what makes you different isn't a communication problem, but a nervous system trained by decades of fitting in?
 Today's guest is the man Simon Sinek credits with helping him find his why. 
Mark Levy has spent 25 years uncovering the ideas hidden within people that make them not just different but unmistakable. He went from a bookstore clerk in Queens to a publishing executive who moved over a billion dollars in books, to a New York Times contributor, to the author of Accidental Genius (translated into eleven languages), to a co-creator of Chamber Magic, New York City's highest-rated live show. 
 In this conversation, Mark and Dov unpack why the most capable people in the room so often have the hardest time saying what makes them unmistakably themselves, and what it costs them in fees, impact, and meaning to keep it all buried. Topics include: 
<ul>
 <li>The Leaning Tower of Pisa and the economics of anomaly</li>
 <li>Why passion blinds you to what you are looking at. </li>
 <li>The four-into-four technique that unlocked a New York Times bestseller.</li>
 <li>Why marketing works better without hyperbole. </li>
 <li>The actual origin of the elevator speech.</li>
 <li>How one client went from lighting himself on fire in theme parks to building courage in Fortune 500 organizations.</li>
 <li>How a magician became the Millionaire's Magician. </li>
 <li>The single concrete action Mark gives listeners to start pulling their real ideas to the surface. CONNECT WITH MARK LEVY
