Anthony Scaramucci has faced bruising setbacks in his career: early Bitcoin losses, a humiliating exit from the White House and going into business with a now-convicted fraudster. Now, the Wall Street investor is passing on his hard-earned lessons to young professionals finding their footing in the workforce during uncertain times.

Scaramucci this month debuted the “Resilience Lab,” an online course that for $49 offers access to short videos focused on building fortitude and surviving failure. The lessons are a result of his decades working in finance, which he says were marked at times by arrogance, failure and ego: “Thirty years of scar tissue,” he says in the videos.
