Friendship with God Chapters 12-13 "Cleansing Grace, The Drama of Friendship" Brad Johnson 4132025 by Evangelical Fellowship Church

Ten years ago, I thought success was all about the numbers — AUM, revenue, production, etc. But after two decades in the industry and thousands of conversations with advisors, I've seen behind the curtain.I've met advisors making millions who are secretly miserable… and others earning far less who are truly winning in every category that matters.In this short solo episode, I'm sharing the 5 hard truths I wish someone told me earlier — the same ones we now teach inside Triad. These are the lessons that helped me (and the advisors we coach) grow faster, lead better, and actually enjoy both the business and the life we're building.5 Lessons to Succeed as a Financial Advisor …1.) Relationships Beat RevenueEarly on, I was chasing numbers — production, AUM, call volume. But the most fulfilled advisors aren't chasing clients; they're building real relationships. The kind that go beyond the portfolio and into family, values, and legacy. When you lead with service, the business takes care of itself.2.) Simplicity Sells. Complexity RepelsTop advisors take complex ideas and make them simple. Visuals, frameworks, and analogies aren't gimmicks, they're how you create clarity. And clarity builds trust. If a prospect doesn't understand your value, they won't pay for it. Clarity creates confidence3.) Growth Without Alignment = BurnoutYou can build a business that looks great from the outside and be miserable on the inside. I've seen it too many times. Growth only works if it aligns with your life. If your business doesn't support your values, family, or well-being, it's just a matter of time before burnout hits.4.) Proximity is PowerYou don't need all the answers, but you do need the right people around you. I've seen entire businesses transform because an advisor got in the right room, asked the right questions, and stayed curious. Proximity accelerates growth. Don't go it alone.5.) Advisors Are Leaders (Not Just Planners)Advisors aren't just here to give advice. You're here to lead. To guide families through fear, change, transitions, and uncertainty. If you only give advice, you inform. But when you lead with vision and empathy, you transform. That's the difference between a commodity and a category of one.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/111FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: 30 minute 1:1 coaching call with BradAre you a financial advisor who feels stuck, needs help, or simply wants to have a conversation with Brad?

Success isn't just about how hard you work. It's also about who's advocating for you even when you're not in the room. In this episode, Debbie talks with Rosalind Chow, an associate professor at Carnegie Mellon University, about her new book, The Doors You Can Open A New Way to Network, Build Trust, and Use Your Influence to Create a More Inclusive Workplace.  They get into the real difference between mentorship and sponsorship, why both matter, and how having the right sponsor can completely change the game for your career.  Rosalind shares her perspective on the challenges of systemic racism and inclusion and how being intentional about sponsorship can actually create real opportunities for people who need them. Concluding the interview, Debbie and Yael give their take on what it means to build relationships that open doors, not just for ourselves but for others, too. Listen and Learn:  When systemic solutions fade, what can individuals do? How sponsorship, not mentorship, breaks barriers for marginalized professionals How power dynamics in mentorship can shape careers and why sponsorship may be the real key to success Rethinking networking and how shifting from power moves to collective problem-solving can build real influence Sponsorship vs. mentorship: why trust flows differently, and why sponsors take the biggest career risks Can sponsorship fight bias, or does it reinforce it? How Kristin became the unlikely leader of a program for Black professionals and won over skeptics How sponsoring a colleague led Kristin to a Harvard Business Review article and a career boost Resources:  Rosalind's website: https://www.rosalindchow.com/ The Doors You Can Open: A New Way to Network, Build Trust, and Use Your Influence to Create a More Inclusive Workplace: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781541702752 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosalind-chow-6b25541b0/ About Rosalind Chow Rosalind Chow is an Associate Professor of Organizational Behavior and Theory at Carnegie Mellon University, where she studies the power of social hierarchy and its impact on diversity and inclusion efforts within organizations.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Dr. DeVries' research focuses on farm-level decisions and modeling. The University of Florida dairy has implemented the use of beef semen. Dr. DeVries describes some of the factors that go into a partial budget for this system as well as details some of the factors involved in implementing beef on dairy. The UF dairy genomically tests all their cows and the panel discusses some differences in beef and dairy selection based on genomics. (5:58)Dr. Felix asks how the beef sires are selected for the UF dairy. Calving ease and fertility are key, as well as low cost. Dr. Johnson asks if spending a little more on beef semen might pay off in the longer term regarding beef quality. The panel agrees that in the current market, dairy producers are getting $800-$1000 for a day-old calf regardless of the beef sire, so perhaps beef sire selection has not been a major focus. (15:07)Dr. DeVries describes some of the data he evaluates when deciding how many cows to breed with sexed dairy semen. Given the current beef prices, heifer retention has not been as high in either the beef or dairy sector as previously predicted. (19:22)The panel discusses the importance of cow longevity in the dairy sector. Dr. DeVries explains the pros and cons of keeping cows in the milking herd longer. Dr. Nelson reminds listeners of the current cull cow market and how that also plays a role in decision-making for dairy and beef producers. (24:16)Dr. Nelson describes the heifer development program for the UF dairy. Week-old heifer calves are shipped to Kansas for development and return to UF at about 200-220 days pregnant. This approach is very common in the southeast. Many of the beef on dairy calves will also be shipped to calf ranches out of state. (30:59)Dr. DeVries' model concluded that switching from conventional dairy to beef-on-dairy resulted in about $150 advantage per cow per year. On top of that was another $50 per cow because of the switch to sourcing your heifers from your best cows. (34:13)The panel discusses the idea of transferring beef embryos into dairy cows. Could there be a day when this approach creates beef calves less expensively than the cow/calf sector can? They also delve into whether there will be any long-term negative impacts of breeding dairy cows with beef semen. (38:44)Dr. Johnson mentions another paradigm shift of the beef-on-dairy system is feeding dairy-influenced heifers in the feedlot, which has not happened before. Technologies used to promote growth in the feed yard can induce spontaneous lactation in some of these heifers. Milk is considered an adulterant in the packing plant and requires trimming if it splashes on a carcass. Dr. Nelson suggests that until there is a discount for heifer beef on dairy calves, there won't be a shift to using sexed male semen to create predominantly beef on dairy steers. (48:33)The panel wraps up with their take-home thoughts.

Interview by Peter Jonathan Robertson in London in 1989 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Dr. Johnson and Dr. Felix begin with brief descriptions of their background. (1:26)Dr. Johnson's presentation at the symposium focuses on beef quality aspects of using beef sires on dairy cows. Using the same Angus semen, his research model compared Angus-sired beef calves raised in a conventional cow-calf system, Angus x Holstein calves, Angus x Jersey calves, and Angus-sired IVF beef embryos transplanted into Holstein and Jersey cows. The model evaluated how the management impacted feedlot performance and carcass quality. (6:37)Dairy-influenced beef is tender and highly marbled. It also has more oxidative fibers prone to lipid peroxidation and higher myoglobin content which gives it a redder hue. When high-myoglobin beef is in retail packaging, it goes through discoloration faster than traditional native beef, and retailers shy away from that. Beef on dairy products have a retail display life more like native beef, and large retailers are embracing that product. (10:12)Ribeye size was not different among any of the cattle groups in Dr. Johnson's study, including straight calf-fed Holsteins. Beef on dairy calves have similar ribeye area and 0.15-0.20 inches less backfat than a straight beef calf, so their yield grades are lower, implying more red meat yield. In practice, however, they don't have increased red meat yield compared to native beef because they give up so much muscle in their hindquarter. (14:14)Dr. Felix asks if the selection criteria of the Angus sire Dr. Johnson used may have limited the findings from a yield standpoint. Dr. Johnson agrees that was definitely the case, as they chose a high-marbling sire on purpose, and he happened to be fairly light muscled. Dr. Johnson feels that improving the plane of nutrition of beef on dairy calves in the hutch for the first 60-70 days could vastly improve hindquarter muscling later in life. (19:39)Muscle biopsies from the ribeye and hindquarter of hutch calves on low and high planes of nutrition found no difference in muscle proliferation in the ribeye. Hindquarter muscle proliferation was improved in calves on the high plane diet. Dr. Felix reiterated that there is a lack of literature in this area. (25:35)If beef on dairy calves have less backfat, does that mean they have better feed efficiency? In Dr. Johnson's study, the best feed efficiency group was the Angus x Holstein F1 cross. Dr. Felix and Dr. Johnson discuss changes in feedlot practices and days on feed and how the industry is moving to carcass-adjusted average daily gain and feed efficiency measures. (31:14)The panelists discussed the impact of gut size on carcass value. In the dairy industry, we want cows to have high intakes for high milk production, which requires a large gut size. Dams of beef on dairy calves may pass on these traits. Dr. Johnson describes a beef calf and a beef on dairy calf out of the same sire where the beef calf was 40 pounds lighter at the end of the feeding period, yet both calves had the same hot carcass weight. That 40-pound difference was gut size. Dr. Felix and Dr. Johnson share their experiences with differences in fat and trim between beef and beef on dairy carcasses. (39:25)Dr. Felix asks Dr. Johnson how the valuation of beef on dairy calves drives marketing decisions. Day-old dairy calves are extremely valuable right now. A high index beef on dairy calf will bring $800-$1100, depending on what part of the country you live in. If a dairy producer only has $200 in that calf, they should take the money and run. There is no way they will make $800 per head feeding out those calves. (47:30)In closing, Dr. Zimmerman urges ASAS and ADSA to bring back Joint Annual Meetings so more cross-species interactions can be fostered. Dr. Felix notes there is a tremendous gap where the dairy nutrient requirements end and where the beef nutrient requirements pick up. We need to fill that gap to better target optimal muscle development in beef on dairy calves. Dr. Johnson is enthusiastic about the amount of progress the beef on dairy sector has experienced in a short period. We're one or two tweaks away from beef on dairy carcasses rivaling native beef in quality. What we're learning in this sector can also be applied to the native beef sector to improve meat quality and red meat yield.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Dr. Felix and Dr. Johnson begin with brief descriptions of their background and interest in beef on dairy research. (3:15)Dr. Felix's first study in this area compared dairy calves with beef on dairy calves of unknown origin. They were placed in the feedlot and fed and implanted the same. Beef on dairy calves grew faster, but they ate more, so there was no difference in feed efficiency. They also had larger ribeye areas and slightly heavier carcass weights. In subsequent studies, calf growers indicated that beef on dairy calves were more hardy and got a quicker start in the calf systems. (9:16)Dr. Johnson and Dr. Felix are both fans of using Charolais sires in beef on dairy systems. Dr. Felix emphasizes that while breed can be important, individual sires within breeds really make the difference when it comes to successful beef on dairy systems. (13:23)The beef and dairy industries speak two different languages when it comes to genetic selection. Dr. Felix encourages education efforts across both segments to speak a common language. Bull studs are heavily invested in this effort. Just 2.5 million units of beef semen were sold in the US in 2017, compared to 9.4 million units in 2024. (16:15)The use of beef sires increased gestation length by two days in one study of over 10,000 dairy records. Dairy producers may have to manage the dry period of beef on dairy cows differently to avoid loss of milk production. (20:46)Last year, the National Association of Animal Breeders published a new category in their annual semen sales report: heterospermic beef, at 1.5 million straws. Genetic companies have started to market straws containing semen from two to three different beef bulls who have similar desired traits. The literature suggests that different cows' reproductive tract environments have different “preferences” for semen. The theory behind heterospermic beef is by putting more than one bull in a straw, we may see increased fertility for that straw. (27:52)Dr. Felix explains her sire selection process from her USDA research. Regardless of breed, she focused on yearling weight, carcass weight, and ribeye area. Because of this, little difference was found between breeds since the same terminal traits were of priority. Dr. Johnson agrees that the growth of beef on dairy has been beneficial to feedlots and that the beef cattle industry can learn from the beef on dairy systems. (32:36)What challenges still exist with beef on dairy? Dr. Felix suggests we need to get past the block of dairy beef “only being 20% of the fed cattle” - why shouldn't that 20% be as high quality as possible? Health will continue to be a challenge, particularly in the areas of liver abscesses and respiratory disease. (41:46) Adequate colostrum intake is critical for successful beef on dairy calves. Dr. Felix describes a project where calves who had adequate passive immunity were heavier at nine months of age than calves who had failure of passive immunity. Dr. Johnson concurs and reminds listeners that colostrum also contains bioactive components that appear to have value beyond immunity, even after gut closure. (44:36)Dr. Johnson gives some perspective from the cow/calf side of the beef cattle industry regarding beef on dairy. He feels that there is much to learn from beef and dairy systems that can be applied to the cow/calf sector. Dr. Felix has received pushback from cow/calf producers that she's trying to “put them out of business.” She counters that we had 20% dairy influence in fed cattle when they were Holstein, and there is still 20% dairy influence now that they're crossbred cattle. We're not changing how many calves come from the dairy industry each year, but we are increasing the amount of beef produced. (47:52)Each panelist wraps up with their take-home messages. Dr. Zimmerman was interested to learn about the longer gestation lengths in beef on dairy crosses and the implications that has for drying off cows. Dr. Johnson reminds listeners not to forget about the maternal side of the beef on dairy industry. He wonders if dairy producers could select for improved muscling without a loss in milk production to make beef-on-dairy crossbred calves even more desirable to the packer. Dr. Felix comments that, at the end of the day, it's about feeding people. The increase in beef production from beef on dairy is something to be proud of, and she hopes some of what has been learned can also benefit the cow/calf industry to improve sustainability for the entire beef supply chain.

Because Life is Short… “So be careful how you live. Don't live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.” Ephesians 5:15-16 (NLT) “Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.” Psalm 90:12 (NLT) “Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” James 4:14 (NIV) “Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered—how fleeting my life is. You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.” Psalm 39:4-5 (NLT) Life at its longest point is short. “I am still not all I should be, but I am focusing all my energies on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead,, I strain to reach the end of the end of the race and receive the prize of God…” Philippians 3:13 NLT Here's What Lasts Forever: God- Isaiah 40:28 God's Son- Hebrews 13:8 God's Word- Isaiah 40:8 God's Faithfulness- Psalm 117:2 God's Kingdom- Psalm 145:13 God's Kindness- Isaiah 54:8 God's Love- Jeremiah 31:3 Salvation- Isaiah 51:6; 1 Corinthians 9:25; 1 Peter 1:4 Heaven- Psalm 23:6 Here's What Doesn't Last Forever: Our Accomplishments- 1 Corinthians 3:15 Everything on Earth- Zepheniah 1:18 WHAT DOES GOD WANT ACCOMPLISHED ON PLANET EARTH? God wants all people, in all places, at all times to come to know and experience His love for them in Jesus Christ. And our response is to love Him back and demonstrate that love through obedience. “The eyes of the Lord search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him.” 2 Chronicles 16:9 NLT “God showed us how much He loved us by sending His only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through Him. This is real love. It is not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.” 1 John 4:9, 10 NLT “Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and His love has been brought to full expression through us.” 1 John 4: 11, 12 NLT What Do We Sacrifice to God So the World Can Come to Know and Experience God's Love? First, Give God Your Influence. Second, Give God Your Affluence. You let His work be the focus of your life. And when great focus and great sacrifice are combined, then the world will be changed. “And the Good News about the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, so that all nations will hear it; and then, finally, the end will come.” Matthew 24:14 NLT

“Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. 15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.” Hebrews 12:14, 15 Our spiritual enemy wants to plant small, seeds of offense that will grow into a root of bitterness. You can't control what people think about you, what they say about you, or what they do to you, but with God's help you can control how you respond. What is the Problem with Bitterness? BITTERNESS HAS A DANGEROUS ROOT See to it that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble. Hebrews 12:15 Love keeps no record of wrongs. 1 Corinthians 13:5 BITTERNESS HAS A POISONOUS FRUIT See to it that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many. Hebrews 12:15 “God, please reveal anything that is growing beneath the surface of my soul, that needs to be pulled up by the roots and healed by your Spirit.” How Do We Kill a Root of Bitterness? Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. Ephesians 4:31, 32 Kill Bitterness with Compassion. Do not be overcome by evil, overcome evil by doing good. Romans 12:21 Jesus, “Bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.” Luke 6:28 Kill Bitterness with Forgiveness. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ, God forgave you. Ephesians 4:32

November 24. 2024 I WANT TO BE BLESSED BY GOD “For he gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and the unjust alike.”  Matthew 5:45 1.  BELIEVE GOD WANTS TO BLESS YOUR LIFE  “And God blessed them.”  Genesis 1:28 “For the eyes of the Lord move side to side, backward and forward throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His.”  2 Chronicles 16:9 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed.”  Romans 8:18 “Blessed is the person who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life” James 1:12 2. THE BLESSED LIFE IS ALGINED WITH GOD'S WORD “Blessed is the person who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law he meditates day and night.  He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither.  IN ALL THAT HE DOES HE PROSPERS.”   Psalm 1:1-3 3. CONSISTANT BLESSINGS COME WITH CONSISTANT OBEDIENCE Deut. 11:8, “Keep the whole commandment that you may be strong” Deut. 11:26-28, “See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse: the blessing if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God…and the curse, if you do not obey…” Deut. 28:1, “And if you faithfully obey the voice of the Lord…God will set you high above all nations' v.3 you will be blessed in the city v.4 your womb will be blessed, your fields, your cattle, your flocks v.5 your food supply v.6 all your coming and going v.7 above your enemies v.8 in all you undertake Extra reading: Psalm 5:12; 25:10; 115:13 Jesus said, “Teach others to OBEY ALL that I have commanded you” Matthew 28:20 “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple.

Put me to the test!”  Malachi 3:10 4. THE DEEPEST BLESSINGS ARE FOUND IN CONNECTION WITH CHRIST “Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing. 6 Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned. 7 But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted! 8 When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my Father. 9 “I have loved you even as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love. 10 When you obey my commandments, you remain in my love, just as I obey my Father's commandments and remain in his love. 11 I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow! John 15:5-11 Galatians 3:9, “So then, those who are of faith are blessed” Ephesians 1:3, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing…”

November 10, 2024 FEELS LIKE HOME pt 2 The Power of Service Jesus said, “For even I, the Son the of Man, came here not to be served, but to serve others, and to give My life as a ransom for many.”  Matthew 20:28 NLT Christian: Those who are like Christ.  “Before the Passover celebration, Jesus…now showed the disciples the full extent of His love…the Father had given Him authority over everything…So, He got up from the table, took off His robe, wrapped a towel around His waist, and poured water into a basin. Then He began to wash the disciple's feet and to wipe them with the towel He had around Him… (He asked )'Since I, the Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other's feet.  I have given you an example to follow…You know these things-now do them! That is the path of blessing.” John 13:1-17 NLT “Your attitude should be the same that Christ Jesus had.  Though He was God, He did not demand and cling to His rights as God.  He made Himself nothing; He took the humble position of a slave and appeared in human form.  And in human form He obediently humbled Himself even further by dying a criminal's death on a cross.  Because of this, God raised Him up to the heights of heaven and gave Him a name that is above every other name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:5-11 NLT WHY SERVE OTHERS HUMBLY: 1. God hates pride “God sets Himself against the proud, but He shows favor to the humble.”  James 4:6 NLT 2. There is no real basis for pride “You will remember your sins and cover your mouth in silence and shame when I forgive you of all that you have done, says the Sovereign Lord.”   Ezekiel 16:63 NLT “So humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God…” 1 Peter 5:6 NLT 3. Humility is the Example of Christ We don't ASCEND UP to greatness, we DESCEND, down to greatness.  4. Humility is necessary to be joyful “Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourself.” Philippians 2:3 NLT 5. Humble service is multiplied “There are different kinds of service in the church, but it is the same Lord we are serving.  There are different ways God works in our lives, but it is the same God who does the work through us.  A spiritual gift is given to each of us as a means of helping the entire church.” 1 Corinthians 12:5-7 NLT TWO WAYS TO GET IN THE GAME: Do What You Love for the God You Love Dive in and swim around to find your sweet spot

Today, I will assume my responsibility for my choices.  I will choose to find Your lessons, tucked into both the successes and failures of my life. Help me learn the lessons that I need so that I might fully walk toward and embrace the future You have wonderfully prepared for me.

What they really are is FAMILIAR. “We fix our gaze on the things that cannot be seen.  For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things that we cannot see will last forever.” 2 Corinthians 4:18 The Christian life is many things, but BORING isn't one of them. “In the Messiah, Christ, God leads us from place to place in one perpetual victory parade.”  2 Corinthians 2:14 (The Message) FAMILIARITY IS NOT A SIN UNLESS… …IT KEEPS ME FROM OBEYING GOD “My life constantly hangs in the balance, but I will not stop obeying the Lord”  Psalm 119:109 …IT KEEPS ME FROM GROWING “We hope that your faith will grow” 2 Corinthians 10:15 “Grow in every way more and more like Christ.”  Ephesians 4:15 “When your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow”  James 1:3 …IT KEEPS ME FROM TRUSTING THE LORD JESUS DESIRES TO LEAD MY LIFE, OFTEN TO THE UNFAMILIAR, BUT ALWAYS TOWARD HIS GOOD PLANS FOR ME. AND MY RESPONSE?   I AM TO FOLLOW! “The Lord had said to Abram, “Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father's family, and go to the land that I will show you. 2 I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others. 3 I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you.” 4 So Abram departed as the Lord had instructed” Genesis 12:1-4 “The Lord is MY shepherd and He LEADS ME…”  Psalm 23:1 “You made me, You created me.  Now give me the sense to follow Your commands.”  Psalm 119:73 “And they left their nets and followed Him.” Matthew 4:20 “Anyone who wants to serve Me must FOLLOW ME.”  John 12:26 Jesus, TODAY, I will trust You more! Today, If You ask, I will step out of my comfort zone, like Abraham.   Today, I will resist my natural tendency to seek sameness, predictability, and control.   Today, I will step out of my rut and routine. Today, I will let go of all the temporary things in which I have sought security and give myself to the wind of the Spirit, and Your leadership, Jesus. Today, I will follow You.

Today's episode is a little different. As many of you know, I'm a member of Front Row Dads – a group started by Jon Vroman, as a way to help men level up as husband's and father's. As a part of their podcast member takeover series, I was asked to interview a Dad of my choosing. I wanted to pick someone I admire and respect in both business and life, so I decided to interview my good friend, Brad Johnson. While this interview will be released on the Front Row Dads podcast, I couldn't help but think our audience would appreciate listening to it as well. For context, Brad is the co-founder of Triad Partners, a business that partners with the top 1% of independent financial advisors, coaching them on how to achieve unlimited growth, freedom, and joy in business and life. Or as they have coined it, “Doing Business. Doing Life.” Brad and I first met years ago at a Front Row Dads event, and he's been a great influence on me both personally and professionally ever since. In fact, he's the reason this podcast exists. He's the guy who talked me into starting The Lifestyle Investor podcast 5 years ago. In this episode, we both get pretty personal as we dive into our non-negotiable core values, practical tips for entrepreneurs chasing the mythical “work-life balance,” and the top lessons we've learned to successfully grow a business without sacrificing family, health, or happiness.In today's episode, you'll learn:✅ How to build a team that wants to do business and do life together – AND a culture that attracts great talent in the process! ✅ Work-life balance is a myth – find out why work-life integration is the secret to making your business serve your life, not become your life.✅ Brad's #1 piece of advice to become a better spouse – and why you should do THIS as early as possible in your marriage to avoid falling into a doom loop.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/198Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.
