Bravery Blueprint

Saying Yes, Saying No: How Zack Mower Learned to Follow What Matters


Listen Later

In this episode of The Bravery Blueprint, host Gus Baxter sits down with Drew University alum Zack Mower to explore the unexpected twists and thoughtful choices that shaped his journey from business student to college admissions professional.

In this episode of the Bravery Blueprint, Zack Mowers shares how getting involved on campus—from cross-country to student government—taught him how to build community, develop resilience, and say yes to what lights him up. But just as importantly, he opens up about the power of saying no—to the things that no longer serve you, to old plans, and to expectations that don’t quite fit.

Through stories of career pivots, coaching, failure, and family, Zack reminds us that bravery isn’t always bold. Sometimes, it’s just taking the next step—even when you’re not sure where it’ll lead.

Whether you're navigating college life, considering a career change, or just figuring out what matters most, this conversation is full of honest insight and quiet encouragement.
