SHOW NOTES @DevonLevesque is not your average 30-year-old. At 23, and after 5 years of working in the hospitality sector, he began coaching clients on positive energy and his unique health practices, which quickly led him to start his first company. He is the founder of two companies; The DML Group, which invests in growth-stage health and wellness companies and Creator & Company, a digital marketing agency helping brands partner with the right influencers in the space. Devon and his team have invested and spearheaded marketing initiatives for some of the largest companies in the industry including Super Coffee, Playbook, Promix, ARENA, Gymshark, and more. Devon's success at an early age did not happen overnight, although it may seem that way. His history as an athlete has played an instrumental role in his ability to navigate the world of business, take more risks, and keep a level head in the face of challenging times. Aside from making investments in brands and growing companies in the health and wellness space, Devon is also known as the first person to ever bear crawl a marathon. Now, Devon is focused on building out the All Day Running Company with Jesse Itzler and his new brand Promix with @OBJ . Our conversation with Devon is the exact conversation we wish we had heard when we were 22 years old. If you enjoy this conversation, please share and leave a review!
