Sometimes the right question reveals more than a thousand answers.

Show Notes: In this insightful Shark Theory episode, Baylor Barbee reflects on a Q&A session with students from the University of North Texas' Professional Selling class—where powerful questions led to powerful realizations. From redefining risk to finding purpose in the moment, Baylor unpacks the wisdom that surfaced during an open conversation about growth, mindset, and meaning.

He also introduces a simple but transformative question—"What was your favorite part of today?"—that can shift your focus, strengthen your relationships, and bring gratitude back into your routine.
