Rise of the Entrepreneur – Episode 44 with Lou Mongello
Lou Mongello is a Disney expert, host, author, speaker and an entrepreneur.
Do what you love and you’ll never have to work a day in your life! That short, but meaning sentence can pretty much sum up the journey that Lou has taken over the past decade plus.

No matter where Lou was working, he was still thinking about Disney and how he could be spending his time and efforts better building something he was passionate about. What started out as a web site and forum about Disney quickly turned into books, dedicated fans, award winning podcasts and much more!
