In a world filled with uncertainty, leadership isn't about waiting for clarity—it's about finding the next “yes” in the midst of chaos.

In this episode, Adrian and Bri dive into the challenge of building something meaningful when the rules keep changing. From NIL and the transfer portal in college athletics to launching new ventures in economic downturns, they explore what it means to lead, risk, and stay grounded in purpose—even when nothing feels stable.

You’ll hear: 

- How to lead authentically when systems feel unfair or inconsistent - Why fear and apathy are the biggest threats in uncertain times - What “finding the yes” looks like in real-life decision-making - Lessons from launching businesses in economic downturns - How to develop the resilience to keep going when you're exhausted

Reflection Questions:

• What’s one area of your life where you’re waiting for clarity before moving forward?

• Where are you blaming external systems instead of asking “What can I do?”

• What’s one risk you've been avoiding that could lead to real growth?
