Episode description
In this episode you’re going to get an inside look into Kelly’s personal bookshelf, the things he reads to run his businesses and to build his empire so to speak. If you’re familiar with Kelly’s story, you’ll know it’s one of these rags to riches types of story where he didn’t grow up with wealth or any advantages. He grew up in a lower middle class American family in a small cabin in the woods of Alaska. He had a very loving family and good upbringing with parents who did well enough in their own careers, but Kelly wanted something more and these books that he lists today are, from the bottom of his heart, how he built the structure on which he resides today.

They are not brought to the precipice where they are made to face the pain points in their life. Some of us are brought there through things like trauma, like an accident or assault…those issues continue to influence people to the present day.” 41:35
