“If you’re only ever trying to pay the bills, you’re always filling a void, not building abundance.”

Wealth expert Brendon Burchard shatters conventional thinking about abundance in this transformative conversation. After hitting rock bottom in San Francisco — literally watching his girlfriend sleep under the weight of his unpaid bills — Brendon found his breakthrough moment fighting for someone beyond himself. He reveals how emotions happen to us while feelings are created through meaning, and why most wealthy people transcend survival thinking to build abundance. Through powerful personal stories, Brendon explains why alignment must precede achievement, why assertiveness trumps confidence, and how a particular mindset destroys potential. His journey from broke writer to coaching billionaires offers practical wisdom for anyone feeling stuck, proving that freedom comes not from needing less but from serving more.

And now let’s jump into episode 1770 of The School of Greatness! 

Some Questions I Ask:

  • “I’m curious from your experience, does wealth tend to come with more negative emotions or positive emotions for the people that you interact with?”
  • “When were you able to break free from that survival mindset around money into thriving financially and creating more abundance?”
  • “How do you not go back into self-doubt when something doesn’t work out or people continue to laugh at you?”
  • “What’s more important to our success or our abundance—thinking more positive thoughts or thinking less negative thoughts?”
  • “What if someone doesn’t know their value or their worth? How can someone start to understand what their value and worth is?”
  • “How do you set yourself free in creating that inner abundance and external abundance when things aren’t going well for you?”
  • “What would you say to that person here who just feels stuck?”

In this episode, you will learn:

  • How to break free from survival mindset into abundance by fighting for someone beyond yourself
