Today's episode is a hard one. But it's also one of the most important I've ever recorded.

Stuart Barnes — one of our original Brotherhood members — is spending his final days in a Macmillan centre after a year-long battle with cancer. He's been with us for five years. A warrior. A father. A man of integrity.

In the face of terminal illness, Stu showed more courage, conviction, and perspective than most will show in a lifetime.

He's reminded us of one powerful truth:

99% of the things we stress about don't matter. The 1% that does — our time, presence, family, health — that's where our energy must go.

In this episode, I reflect on:

• The lessons Stu's taught us over the past year

• How his courage reframed our day-to-day perspective

• Why we're dedicating an annual half-marathon in his name

• And why you must stop wasting time on the things that don't matter

This episode is about legacy, clarity, and making sure that when your time comes — you know you lived well.
