Master Your Mindset | Daniel Spencer | 94 Nov 16, 2022

Show notes

Inspiration is the word that instantly comes to mind after hearing Daniel's story. Once upon a time, he was 300 lbs and addicted to alcohol. Sober and well on his way to becoming a healthy man, he was involved in an electrical flashover while working in a vault in Hollywood. The incident left his face severely burned, with a long road to recovery staring back at him. This could send even the strongest of men back into a downward spiral, but not Daniel. He recovered stronger than ever. As I said, inspiration is the word that comes to mind. Daniel is now healthier than ever with a strong, fit body and clear mind ready to help others master their own mindset.

Put in the Work | Mackenzie Gillan | 93 Nov 07, 2022

Show notes

Mackenzie Gillan is a lineman apprentice from Ontario, Canada. I recently met her in person at the International Lineman’s Rodeo, where she cleaned house, taking home three awards in the apprentice category. I’ve followed Mackenzie for the last couple of years, and one thing that I’ve noticed is that very few people outwork her, and I believe this is what sets her apart. Enjoy the conversation.

Milwaukee Tool | Mike Dumoit & Steve Sarnocinski | 91 Aug 26, 2022

Show notes

This is way more than just a podcast about tools, though we do dive into that. Mike and Steve have led interesting lives. Mike is from Texas and grew up with a passion for music, and Steve is an East Coast-born and raised US Army veteran. Both of these guys open up to me, sharing their stories and lessons learned in life. We also go in-depth about the history of Milwaukee Tool and the things Milwaukee has done to put itself on top of the tooling industry. You definitely don’t want to miss this one! Oh, and p.s., we had a ton of fun and lots of laughs.
