Chris Hermann: An Attorney and Winemaker on Relentless Curiosity, a Pioneering Spirit, and Never Living Passively (#15)

This episode is for you if:

You feel like you’re stuck in a rut or routine

You’re tired of going along with the crowd

You’re capable of more excellence

You’re considering a career shift

You want to start a new business (and keep your current job, or not)

You love wine

My conversation with Chris Hermann, founder of 00 Wines, is a life lesson in what it takes to excel by choosing your own path — and doing things differently from everyone else. Chris has been practicing law for almost 40 years, and is now also at the helm of the award-winning 00 Wines; a business he started with his 90-year old father several years ago.

Along the way, we see how a relentless curiosity and pioneering spirit drove him to choose different paths than most people around him, and how these choices led to a richer experience of life, which led to different ways of thinking… and ultimately one of the most exciting new wine businesses in America.

Many talk about purposeful change, but true examples are rare. I strive to be one of those examples and invite you to join me on this journey.

With over 30 years of experience working with everyone from Fortune 50 executives to college students, I've learned that no one has all the answers. The key is finding the approach that resonates with you.

I challenge myself and others to rethink the scripts we've inherited and design lives that are uniquely our own. I'm passionate about connecting with change-makers who are living differently and showing us what's possible.
