When I first met Philip "PT" Taylor a few years ago at a meet up during BlogWorld LA, I immediately thought of the phrase "salt of the earth". He's so darn nice! Now that I know he's originally from Louisiana, I can also chalk it up to southern hospitality.

Why did Philip move from Louisiana to Texas? What band does PT love listening to? What is Philip's favorite sport and team? What is his household's favorite movie? Where is Philip's favorite travel destination? Where does he want to visit? When we get down to business with Philip, you will learn How did PT get into blogging? Who did he follow, emulate, and partner with? Why did Philip start his podcast? Why did PT start FinCon? Finally, we wrap things up by throwing some curve balls to find what makes Philip unique. What advice would PT give someone wanting to leave their 9 to 5? Does he fear failure? Why does PT want to sit down with Gary Vee (Vaynerchuk)?
