7Hunter Ballew's new book, Make It Count, came about after a serious and unfortunate incident. Hunter was chasing his dreams, moving from serving in the US Marine Corps for six years, to working as a full-time Firefighter and EMT, to exploring entrepreneurship. He was contemplating his move from the fire department to live his passion of owning a business when it happened -- his friend and former partner at the fire department, Jordan, was killed in a tragic car crash. The incident struck Hunter deeply, as he realized that Jordan, who had made such a mark on the lives of those who knew him, wasn't going to be around to do that anymore. His life had unexpectedly ended at the young age of 30, and he had run out of time -- no more memories made with his wife and newborn daughter, no more time with his family and friends, no more chances to fulfill his dreams. So that's when Hunter decided to practice one of the dominating principles he teaches in his new book: help others realize the importance of making the most of the time they're given and building a legacy that will last. With Make It Count, Hunter Ballew empowers high-performing business owners, aspiring entrepreneurs, and everyone in between to fully realize their leadership potential and secure their legacies for generations to come.
