The Future of Leadership: Are You Ready for What’s Coming? Most people think leadership is about telling others what to do—but what if that’s completely wrong? In this episode, I sit down with my great friend Brendon Burchard to challenge everything you thought you knew about leadership. The world is changing faster than ever, and the old way of leading just won’t cut it anymore. If you’re still leading the way you did five years ago, you’re already falling behind. Brendon and I break down what it really takes to lead in today’s world, from how to get people to buy into your vision to why energy is your most valuable leadership asset. We’re talking about what separates great leaders from those who struggle to keep their teams engaged—and trust me, it’s not what you think. Brendon shares his game-changing insight: “People support what they create.” If your people don’t feel like they have a stake in the vision, they’ll never be all in. We also get into the biggest leadership mistake holding most people back—clinging to old ideas instead of adapting. Even legendary leadership expert John Maxwell told me that he used to believe consistency was the key… until he realized that in today’s world, great leaders must be willing to change their minds when new information comes in. The companies and leaders who refuse to evolve? They won’t survive the next five years. This conversation is packed with real, actionable leadership strategies you can start using today—whether you’re leading a team of two or two thousand. And if you’re not thinking about energy, emotional connection, and adaptability as core leadership skills, this episode will shift your mindset forever. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✅ The #1 mistake leaders make that kills engagement ✅ How to create buy-in so your team is all in on the vision ✅ Why AI is forcing leaders to change how they lead—NOW ✅ The real reason people quit (it’s not what you think!) ✅ How energy and emotional connection separate great leaders from average ones This is the leadership conversation you didn’t know you needed to hear. Let’s get after it.

Are You Living in a Prison Without Bars? Some of the most locked-up people aren’t behind steel bars—they’re trapped in their own minds. My guest today, my friend Damon West, knows this better than anyone. Once a promising college quarterback, he spiraled into addiction and crime, ultimately sentenced to life in prison. But Damon didn't just survive—he transformed. He found a way to change his environment from the inside out, becoming what he calls a "coffee bean"—a force for change rather than a victim of his surroundings. Damon’s story is unreal. He was sentenced to life but earned his way out by changing himself first. Today, he’s one of the most sought-after speakers in the world, sharing the same message that saved him. He went from practicing speeches in his parents’ spare bedroom to standing in front of NFL teams, Fortune 500 companies, and thousands of students. He’s proof that no matter how far you’ve fallen, you can rewrite your story. This conversation is filled with raw truth and real strategies. We break down what it takes to overcome mental prisons, fear, and limiting beliefs. Damon shares how he got his first big break by refusing to take “no” for an answer and the lessons he’s learned from some of the world’s greatest leaders. And in a moment that will stay with you, he reveals a forgiveness letter from one of his victims—proof that redemption is possible. This episode is about hope. It’s about getting back up when life knocks you down. And it’s about understanding that your past doesn’t define you—your decisions do. Key Takeaways ✅ The coffee bean mindset—how to change your environment instead of letting it change you ✅ How Damon went from seven years in maximum security to becoming a top speaker ✅ Why you must ask the question—and how one bold move got him in front of Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney ✅ The power of gratitude and giving—how a simple keychain changed his entire life ✅ The life-changing impact of forgiveness—including the letter that changed everything If Damon West can rebuild his life from a prison cell to flying private, what’s stopping you from making a change today? This is your wake-up call. Let’s go!
