Quincy Jones. We listen and learn. Inspiring is an understatement!

Quincy Jones mentors while he sleeps with this must listen and learn piece of history. At 50, I can say I’m preparing to be a cancer survivor and thankfully a father, son, husband, uncle, friend, musician, song writer, entrepreneur and it goes on. But, like Quincy, I’m not a quitter. The humble nature by which Quincy articulates this narrative is so endearing it’s as if he is sitting with me and sharing some time. I’m thankful for this audiobook. God Bless!

Paul Van Doren is the founder of Vans - the shoe company beloved by skateboarders, creatives, and fans everywhere for its laid-back, colorful SoCal vibe, and famous for its people-oriented company culture. How did Van Doren establish a family shoe business that evolved into a globally recognized brand with annual revenue of more than four billion dollars? A blue-collar kid with no higher education and zero retail experience, Van Doren leveraged a knack for numbers, a genius for efficiency, and the know-how to make a great canvas tennis shoe into an all-American success story.
