  • E68: How Process Attachment Holds Back Innovation
    Nov 20 2024
    Is your attachment to the process holding you back? In this episode, we dive into Process Attachment Disorder—the unhealthy dependence on established systems and methods that can keep us stuck. It’s easy to get so focused on the how that we lose sight of the why. But real progress comes when we’re willing to adapt and stay loyal to the mission, not the method. Adrian and Bri explore the Control Paradox, why we cling to comfort and predictability, and how letting go of rigid processes creates room for transformation and innovation. From leadership strategies to personal growth, this conversation is packed with insights on embracing change while staying mission-driven. Key Takeaways:
    • What is Process Attachment Disorder, and how does it hold you back?
    • The Control Paradox: Why the need for control limits progress.
    • How to stay loyal to the mission while being flexible with methods.
    • Why purpose and values must always guide the process.
    • The power of adaptable allegiance: letting go of personal preferences for collective gain.

    What’s one process or system you’re holding onto that no longer serves the mission?

    Nov 13 2024
    Are you chasing goals that feel just out of reach? In our first-ever live episode, Adrian and Bri tackle the concept of Chasing Smoke—the relentless pursuit of dreams and expectations that often leave us feeling empty.

Broadcasted in front of a live audience, Adrian shares his journey of redefining his personal scoreboard, breaking away from comparison and societal pressures. He reflects on the challenge of balancing ambition with authenticity, explaining how true fulfillment comes not from achieving external markers but from living in alignment with one's calling and purpose. Bri adds insight on sacrifice and faith, emphasizing the importance of trusting that the time invested now will pay dividends in the future. Key Takeaways:
    • The dangers of "Chasing Smoke"—pursuing success based on external expectations.
    • How to redefine success by setting your own scoreboard in life. 🎯
    • The importance of sacrifice and resilience, and why sometimes saying "no" is essential for growth.
    • Practical tips for discovering your purpose and remaining authentic in a world full of comparisons.
    • How to build a legacy beyond the workplace by focusing on values that truly matter. 🌱

  • E66: How Transformational Leaders Leave a Lasting Legacy
    Nov 6 2024
    Are you a leader who simply manages tasks, or are you someone who transforms lives? In this episode, Bri and Adrian dive into the critical difference between transformational leadership and transactional leadership. Too often, leaders fall into the trap of operating in a give-and-take dynamic, where interactions are merely transactions. But transformational leaders aim to create deep, lasting impact across every sphere they touch—whether in the workplace, their community, or personal relationships. Bri and Adrian unpack what it means to lead with purpose, focusing on long-term growth and developing people, rather than just achieving short-term results. They highlight how a transformational approach encourages trust, loyalty, and true engagement from those being led, and why these leaders leave a legacy far beyond the transactional. Key Takeaways:
    • The difference between transactional leadership and transformational leadership.
    • How transformational leaders impact lives deeply by creating meaningful connections and inspiring growth.
    • The importance of purpose in leadership and how to move beyond simply managing tasks.
    • Why transformational leadership drives higher loyalty and engagement from teams, fostering stronger relationships.
    • Practical steps to shift from being a transactional leader to one that truly transforms.
    Are you leading just for results, or are you looking to transform lives? Evaluate your leadership approach this week. Think about where you might be operating transactionally, and identify one area where you can make a transformational shift.
