Send us a textIf you've ever wondered what toll building a business takes on you as a human being, this eye-opening conversation with serial entrepreneur Elliot Kallen will hit home. After founding and selling multiple successful companies, including financial firms that managed over a billion dollars in assets, Elliot doesn't sugarcoat the profound personal impact of the entrepreneurial journey."You cannot be a great CEO right now and be a great parent and a husband at this very minute," Elliot reveals, challenging the harmful "you can have it all" narrative that sets founders up for failure. He breaks down the entrepreneurial journey into three distinct phases—startup hustle, growth momentum, and mature decision-making—each bringing unique challenges to personal relationships and wellbeing.The conversation dives deep into the physical toll of founder life, from unhealthy eating habits to sleep deprivation, and explores how these patterns can lead to serious health consequences. As Elliot candidly shares, "having a heart attack at 52 is not a good example." His hard-earned wisdom includes practical advice about understanding your cash flow, knowing your strengths, and the importance of hiring for your weaknesses rather than trying to fix them yourself.Perhaps most powerful is Elliot's journey through personal tragedy. After losing his son to suicide, he channeled his entrepreneurial energy into creating A Brighter Day, a foundation providing mental health resources for teens and their families. This transformation of grief into purpose demonstrates how the skills we develop as entrepreneurs can create meaningful impact beyond business success.Whether you're just starting your entrepreneurial journey or leading an established company, this conversation offers invaluable perspective on maintaining your humanity while building something extraordinary.

Motherhood is holy ground. It's also some of the hardest, most heart-stretching work a woman can be called to. In this special Mother's Day episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay welcomes Whitney Newby—author, artist, and founder of Brighter Day Press—for a heartfelt conversation about the beauty and sacred responsibility of raising children to know and follow Jesus.  Whether you're a mom who feels steady in her calling or one who's running on empty, this episode is for you. Patti and Whitney unpack the real struggles moms face—especially the difficulty of maintaining consistent time with the Lord—and speak hope into that tension. With honesty and grace, Whitney shares wisdom from her devotional Lift Your Eyes, reminding moms that God sees, sustains, and strengthens us in every season: from the tear-filled days to the joy-soaked moments and the countless in-between.  Together, Patti and Whitney explore how the promises of Scripture can anchor a mother's heart, how to find life-giving rest in Christ, and how to build rhythms of faith into your family's everyday routine—even when life feels chaotic. You'll also hear encouragement for spiritually leading your children when you feel inadequate or overwhelmed.  This episode is a soul-deep breath of fresh air for moms in every stage.

Note: I want to share a brief content warning to my readers and listeners regarding this episode with guest Elliot Kallen. While Elliot's story is powerful and important, there is discussion of teenage mental health and self-harm. If you or someone you know is struggling, please see below for resources. Elliot Kallen stands as an exemplar of leadership, leveraging a profound wealth of expertise amassed over three decades in entrepreneurial endeavors and financial advisory services. With a commitment to excellence, Elliot is the driving force behind Prosperity Financial Group, Inc., drawing from his experience as a CEO of two other companies and an international business builder. Beyond his prowess in the financial realm, Elliot is a sought-after keynote speaker, gracing platforms for charities, podcasts, and radio shows to share insights on motivation, leadership, charitable initiatives, marketing strategies, and diverse financial topics. Notably, he serves as the President of A Brighter Day Charity, a 501c(3) organization born from personal tragedy—the loss of his youngest son, Jake, in 2015. A Brighter Day Charity's outreach has profoundly impacted numerous families, solidifying its role as a beacon of hope in the lives of teens and parents alike. THE POWER OF EMPATHY IN ENTREPRENEURSHIPA word you don't hear frequently when discussing business and dealmaking is “empathy”. Elliot, however, has made it a goal of his to implement this emotion into his business and dealmaking. In fact, he believes it is a crucial trait for entrepreneurs, as it allows them to truly understand and connect with their clients' needs and aspirations. By utilizing empathy within his business and dealmaking, Elliot is enabled to build some of the strongest relationships with his clients. By genuinely caring about his clients' well-being and success – going so far as to treat them as family – he creates a unique and approachable experience that is unmatched in the financial advisory industry. THE IMPORTANCE OF PERSEVERANCE IN ENTREPRENEURSHIPElliot is no stranger to challenges, not just in his professional life, but also in his personal life. These challenges have highlighted the importance of perseverance for Elliot – and it should be something that all entrepreneurs learn. Perseverance is a crucial trait for entrepreneurs to possess and cultivate. The path of entrepreneurship is often filled with challenges, setbacks, and failures. It requires the ability to keep going despite these obstacles and maintain a relentless pursuit of success. Without perseverance, many entrepreneurs would give up at the first sign of difficulty, missing out on the opportunities and growth that come from pushing through adversity. Frankly put, perseverance is sometimes what separates successful entrepreneurs from those who fall short. A BRIGHTER DAY – RESOURCES TO HELP TEENAGERS IN NEEDMost of us are no stranger to the unbearable weight of mental health and stress. Each year, teenagers face depression and other mental health issues alone, but we need to step up for our youth and let them know they're not alone. That's why Elliot started his charity, A Brighter Day. A Brighter Day is a mental health resource that focuses on providing resources and support for teens and their families who are dealing with stress and depression. The aim of A Brighter Day is to prevent teen suicide, and as such, they have been able to reach thousands of families each month with their resources.

Succession Stories host Laurie Barkman, The Business Transition Sherpa(™), welcomes Elliot H. Kallen, President of Prosperity Financial Group, a financial planning and advising firm. Elliot is a three time CEO with a passion for working with family businesses to achieve a meaningful life beyond financial measure. Listen in as they discuss the emotional aspect of family businesses and the hypothetical umbilical cord that's hard to sever. It could be a reason why family business owners want their kids to take over– so they can stay close to the action. Or, they may be reluctant to let go of their company baby and plan to work until they die.  Does the next generation even want to own the business, or do they want the wealth from an exit and the ability to move on?

Hello and welcome to How Did I Get Here? From The Vault! In celebration of 30 years of Jellyfish's classic album, Spilt Milk, today we go back to episode 536 with Craig Dorfman, author of "Brighter Day: A Jellyfish Story"! This show was originally released on 10/24/2016. Below are my original notes form the show.  Are you a fan of the band, Jellyfish? Do you ever wonder why they only released two albums (Bellybutton - 1991, Spilt Milk - 1993) and broke up? Do you ever wonder what ever happened to the members of the band? Well, for episode 536 I talk to Craig Dorfman, the man who wrote the book about Jellyfish. The book is called, "Brighter Day: A Jellyfish Story" Craig just picked up distribution last week, so it should make its way into some stores in the next few months, but for now you can get it the "Brighter Day: A Jellyfish Story" facebook page. I reached out to Craig and got a copy of the book. I absolutely loved it. Jellyfish is one of my favorite bands and it was great to hear the whole story told by the people that lived it and told in a single narrative that keeps you engaged the whole time. Craig and I have a great conversation about finding the dozens of people involved in the story and interviewing them and working on the book for over 7 years, his love of music and these guys and their life story and much, much more. I hope you enjoy getting to know Craig. I sure did. Let's get down! If you feel so inclined. Venmo: venmo.com/John-Goudie-1  Paypal: paypal.me/johnnygoudie

Elliot Kallen, is the the President and Founder of A Brighter Day Charity. Seven years ago, his son Jake, a sophomore at the University of Montana, walked up the highway and jumped in front of an oncoming truck, taking his life. In his suicide note, he wrote that he would have never told his family how he felt or taken their help. They  were devastated and shocked and have since learned that thousands of families had the same experience. None of his friends, family, or his coaches knew that he was struggling with depression. In honor of Jake, they began this charity six years ago by creating resources for teens and parents on stress and depression to stop teen suicide. We have now grown to become a charity that has impacted tens of thousands of families.https://www.facebook.com/uniteforabrighterday/https://abrighterday.info/If you want a speaker in your school, email liz@savethekids.org and we will get you hooked up!
