Brendon Burchard

I’d avoided him for years based on my perception of who he was.

High Performance Habits

And it turned out I was totally off.

I’d seen Brendon Burchard‘s videos all over Facebook, heard his name in big circles, and seen his bestselling books at the top of the charts.

But for whatever reason, I felt like there might be something fake about him.

So I never bothered to find out.

Until we spoke at the same event and I met him in person.

And I realized there was more to the story.

When he came by the studio to record a conversation about his newest book, we got to really connect.

And I was amazed.

Brendon is an incredibly successful high performance coach, speaker and author. He’s advised some of the top executives and performers in the world.

It turns out we were totally on the same page about greatness, service, life purpose, and leadership.

Brendon gave tons of awesome wisdom in our conversation — I loved talking to him so much that at the end of the interview, I asked him to come speak at the Summit of Greatness this year.

And he said yes ๐Ÿ™‚

This conversation is powerful, authentic, and a game changer in Episode 538.
