Do you ever feel like emotionally you're on thin ice? As leaders, we feel a lot of pressure to present ourselves as having everything together.

We have fears, anxieties and hurts and dreams that often, no one else is aware of. Things we never share with anyone, maybe with the exception of our spouse or therapist. And yet, when we do share that stuff with other leaders or peers we trust, what we almost always find, is that we're not alone in those things. In many ways, we're all the same. 

Brandon and I get into those head games and struggles during this episode. Join us in the conversation- you may find you're less alone in your own struggles than you think.

Many would say we’re in an era in our industry where the primary way we’ll compete as business owners, is in our ability to attract and retain talent. And certainly recruiting partners will play a huge role in helping all of us do that. 

Today we talk with Mitchell from OPS Staffing, a recruiting firm focused on the restoration industry. We talk about the state of the industry, what to expect when hiring a recruiter, and how to approach the relationship to get the best results.

This is a new show type we're experimenting with called "Rabbit Trails" where Brandon and I pull back the current, and essentially record a convo between he and I. We don't come with a pre-determined theme or topic, and we see where the Muse leads us. Then we name the theme at the end. Today's session turned into a rad conversation that ultimately kept us coming back to mindset. Let us know if you like this more impromptu show style. We plan to make this a regular show type that we mix in. - Chris

Today’s show is essentially a dress rehearsal for the keynote speech Brandon and I recently delivered on the main stage at the Collective by CORE. 

We talk about how as leaders, our reactions, attitudes, behaviors and decision-making are subconsciously anchored to events and experiences in our past. 

Listen in, and learn how shining a light on these past experiences and events can increase your awareness and transform your leadership, influence, and the quality of relationships you have around you. -Chris
