With the launch of his new book, Captains Wanted, Andres Schabelman tells the story of what happens when people are willing to embark on a new journey. After building an impressive career, he made the courageous choice to redefine success on his own terms—and tells the story of what happens when people are willing to follow a new path.
In this thoughtful and deeply human discussion, Brooks and Andres explore the power of understanding our emotions, the freedom that comes with rewriting old definitions of success, and the healing magic of genuine connection. They remind us that curiosity, collaboration, and a willingness to step into the unknown can be some of life’s greatest teachers.
And in case you’re wondering, here’s just a glimpse of Andres’ fascinating journey (because trust me, there’s so much more to the story):
✨ Earned his Master’s in Public Policy at Harvard Kennedy School.
✨ One of the first 30 employees at Airbnb, back when it was still an experiment in trust and adventure.
✨ A mentor who reflects back the truths we sometimes need help seeing.
✨ A passionate builder of solutions that bring people together in real, meaningful ways.
This conversation is a beautiful blend of wisdom, warmth, and insight—one you won’t want to miss.
