The Inspired Way

Tim Douglas @timdouglasinspires (Instagram) - Husband, Father, Friend and Founder and Owner of The Douglas Group, LLC, this podcast The Inspired Way and TimDouglasInspires.com

My mission is to Inspire, Empower and Motivate individuals to live out their highest true potential in life. To live inspired! To go the inspired way by facing tough, challenging or hard situations as storms in life and face them the way buffalo do, head-on, running towards, not away from. We grow stronger and build greater endurance through adversity.

Thi episode, I talk about The Buffalo Retreat I held a couple of weeks ago in the mountains of South Carolina. We had 4 states represented and had an amazing time. We faced challenges and definitely grew as men that weekend. This is something about getting out in nature, taking on challenges and feeling your soul being refreshed!

If you are looking to do some soul training or want to know more about it, email me at [email protected]. I would love to have you out on the next outing.

In this episode, I also talk about building a community and how having the mentality, people over projects can help with that. When we put projects over people, we’re not building deep authentic relationships. When we do not build relationships, others can not receive from us. To impact others we must build relationships, not projects. People Over Projects!

It is a storm we all must face!

Thomas Burleson - Husband, Mentor, Great Man of God

“The first step to confidence is this idea...I can be a buffalo if I want to be a buffalo.” Thomas Burleson

It’s with extreme joy and honor to share my conversation with a young man that is very dear to my heart! I love him as my own. This young man has been in my life for many years and I felt deeply impressed to take Thomas under my wing and coach/mentor/father him. From that, I have seen so much growth in him. I’m extremely proud of him and the man he’s become. I’m excited to welcome him into The Herd as an immense Buffalo!

Thomas and I talk about his early years and how his enter life he was taught and raised to be a cow. He got to a point in his life entering adulthood, honestly not knowing how to face challenging situations. So he just avoided them. We talk about his decision to be a buffalo and realizing he was good enough to be one. We discuss the importance of finding older buffalos as mentors to learn from and how conflicts/storms can create beautiful stories if we allow them to. This episode is one of my favorites so I hope you enjoy it.

Thomas now lives in Laguna Beach, CA serving young adults at Oceans Church, mentoring young men and building his legacy with his newly married wife.
