Your Limitless Leadership Podcast

You can tell me whether your team hit its numbers, but can you tell me whether you are actually leading them well?

In this episode of Your Limitless Leadership, Brent and Jenny discuss one of the biggest misconceptions in leadership. Great results mean great leadership. With decades of combined experience leading teams, developing top performers and coaching leaders across the country, they know firsthand that a great quarter can hide poor leadership. While a difficult quarter can disguise incredible progress.

Jenny shares her approach to measuring what really matters, while Brent opens up about his own struggles with knowing whether he was actually succeeding as a leader. Together, they break down how to build a leadership scorecard that goes beyond revenue, recruiting and production to measure the behaviors that develop your team.

This conversation goes even deeper. Are you having consistent one-on-ones? Are you addressing problems before they become bigger issues? Are you developing your best people for their next opportunity or holding them back because you don't want to lose them? Brent shares a real coaching conversation with a talented leader who feels stuck, while Jenny challenges leaders to examine the difference between an abundance and scarcity mindset.

They also tackle one of the most important questions in leadership: Are you empowering your people to solve problems or enabling them by doing everything yourself?

People see your results. They see the title, the income and the business you've helped build. What they don't see is you sitting at the kitchen table wondering, "Is this it?" You know you're capable of more. Maybe you've thought about starting your own thing for years. The hard? There's a mortgage, a family counting on you and people you feel guilty leaving behind. So you keep putting it off.

We know that conversation because we lived it. In this episode, we share the emotional moment that pushed us to start Your Limitless Coach and what almost kept us from doing it. Jenny opens up about feeling like she owed it to everyone else to stay. Brent shares the frustration of watching the things he wanted to build keep getting pushed into "someday." We also talk about why successful leaders need someone who will challenge them, ask the uncomfortable questions and help them follow through.

If you've been carrying those thoughts around without saying them out loud, this episode is for you. Listen to Your Limitless Leadership, follow the podcast and connect with us at DNACall.com. You don't have to figure out your next chapter alone.

What if the person you see succeeding today spent years believing they weren't good enough? In this powerful and personal episode of Your Limitless Leadership, Jenny turns the tables and interviews her husband, Brent. The talk about his experiences, failures and decisions that shaped him into the leader, coach and speaker he is today.

Growing up in a Minnesota town of just 463 people, Brent never imagined a career in leadership, coaching or public speaking. After years of changing jobs, chasing titles and believing successful people were somehow born with something he didn't have, he found his calling at 36. Success didn't come quickly. Brent shares the story of delivering 22 workshops without making a single sale, practicing presentations at 4:30 in the morning and questioning whether he'd made the biggest mistake of his career. He reveals the mentors who refused to let him quit, the lessons that finally changed his results and why confidence isn't something you're born with. It's something you build.

This conversation goes far beyond business. Jenny asks Brent some of the questions leaders rarely get asked: How do you keep showing up when life is falling apart around you? How do you balance being a husband, father, son and business owner when everyone needs something from you? How do you know when it's time to stop carrying everything yourself and ask for help? Brent opens up about navigating divorce, raising children, his father's recent health struggles and the discipline that helps him stay consistent even when life gets difficult. He also shares a powerful conversation with a close friend that forever changed how he views vulnerability and asking for help.

If you've ever looked at someone successful and thought they must have something you don't, or wondered how to keep moving forward when life seems to be coming at you from every direction, this episode is for you.

The higher you climb in leadership, the easier it becomes for people to stop telling you what you need to hear.

In this episode of Your Limitless Leadership, Brent and Jenny share personal stories about feedback that stung but how it helped them grow. Jenny overheard a critique of her speaking. Pretty painful. Brent talks about the question from someone he was leading that forced him to confront his own missed goals. Made him frustrated in the moment, but that was pure ego.

They also get after why being busy doesn't mean you're being intentional, how to follow through on your calendar and how taking over can cost your people the confidence they need to grow.

In this episode:

• Receiving tough feedback without letting your ego take over.
• Making it easier for your team to tell you the truth.
• Keeping commitments even when you don't feel like it.
• Seeking accountability when you're the person in charge.
• Developing your people instead of taking over.

Who in your life can tell you the truth? What do you do when they do?

Most are not held back by a lack of talent. They are held back because they are waiting to feel ready.

In this episode, Brent sits down with Amanda Massman, owner and artist behind Burlap and Barnwood. Amanda shares how she went from creating cakes, artwork and handmade pieces at home to building an audience of more than 200,000 people and teaching hat-burning workshops across the country.

Her journey was not built from a perfect business plan. It was built by saying yes to opportunities before she knew exactly how to execute them. Amanda taught herself how to build a website, sell her work online, run workshops, manage instructors and grow a business one decision at a time.

Her message is simple: confidence does not come before action. It comes from doing the scary thing, learning from it and realizing you are capable of more than you thought. You do not need every answer before you begin. Put one foot in front of the other, bet on yourself and figure it out as you go.

The best leaders don't just hit numbers. Brian shows you how.

Brian Coffey has spent 26 years in financial services. His path wasn't perfectly mapped out, not even close. He struggled through college, entered the business chasing money and freedom, and quickly learned that success required something more. He had to develop discipline, resilience and the ability to handle rejection without taking it personally. By turning rejection into a numbers game and borrowing belief from mentors until he built his own, Brian developed the habits that ultimately helped him become one of Prudential's most successful leaders.

This conversation is more than business. He shares how great leaders inspire through example, recruit people instead of numbers and create a culture where advisors feel part of something bigger than themselves. He also opens up about anxiety, imposter syndrome, therapy, coaching and why even the best leaders never have everything figured out. If you want to build a successful organization without losing the human side of leadership, this conversation is for you.

The way you communicate at work should not disappear when you walk through your front door.

In this episode, Brent and Jenny get honest about what marriage has taught them about leadership, How to understand different personalities, manage conflict, listen before reacting, and know when someone needs a solution versus a little grace.

They share personal stories about defensiveness, "seeing red," taking ownership, and learning that every disagreement does not need a winner. Whether you are leading a team or building a life with someone, the question is the same:

Will you respond with grace or pour gas on the fire?

Great leadership begins with self-awareness, patience, and the willingness to understand what might be happening beneath someone's behavior.

You do not want to miss this one.

Most women are not failing because they lack motivation. They are failing because they have been given an overwhelming, restrictive plan they could never sustain.

In this episode, Brent sits down with Pamelyn Rocco, founder of House of Health by Pamelyn, to discuss why lasting transformation is not built through crash diets, perfection or an all-or-nothing mindset. Pamelyn shares her own experience of working out consistently, eating correctly and still feeling frustrated with her body in her 40s. That struggle ultimately led her to discover the importance of building muscle, understanding nutrition and creating an approach that works in real life.

Pamelyn's philosophy is simple: every woman is different, so the plan must fit the person. Don't force the person into a cookie-cutter program. Her goal is to remove the confusion, calm the overwhelm and help women understand the science behind what they are doing. You can travel, enjoy wine, eat tacos and live your life while still becoming stronger, healthier and more confident.

This conversation is about much more than losing weight. It is about getting your energy, confidence and identity back. Building your physical health does not only change how you look, it affects how you sleep, how you think, how you show up for your family and how fully you are able to enjoy the life you are working so hard to build.

It's also the drive and way she has built this business to sustain. She is that leader and owner that has a passion for what she does.

What happens when the career that defined you suddenly disappears?

In this episode of the Your Limitless Leadership Podcast, Brent Widman sits down with James Reuter, Executive Partner at New York Life and former NYPD detective, to talk about rebuilding your identity, your leadership, and your life after a major setback.

After being forced to retire from the police department following multiple surgeries, James found himself in one of the lowest seasons of his life — injured, unemployed, and unsure of what came next. But what followed is a story of grit, discipline, and relentless personal responsibility.

Since joining New York Life in 2019, James has built an extraordinary track record of performance and leadership. Now serving as Executive Partner in the New Jersey General Office, he has led one of the top-performing teams in the country while developing a culture built on accountability, discipline, and growth.

In this conversation, James shares how he rebuilt his career from the ground up, why most people become comfortable once they start succeeding, and what it really takes to build a team that produces at a high level year after year.

This episode is about far more than business. It is about identity, resilience, leadership, and the decision to keep showing up when life does not go according to plan.

In this episode you'll learn:

• How James rebuilt his life after being forced to retire from the NYPD
• The mindset shift that helped him transition into an entirely new career
• Why grit matters more than talent in the early stages of success
• The mistake most people make once they start getting good at something
• How to build a culture of accountability and leadership within a team
• Why discipline, not motivation, is what ultimately drives success

If you've ever had to start over, navigate an unexpected setback, or step into leadership with uncertainty, this conversation will resonate.

Anyone can lead when things are going well. Your character is revealed when the pressure is high, the decision is difficult and people are depending on you.

In this episode, Brent sits down with Steve Larson, Senior Vice President of Club Operations at Life Time to discuss the lessons that have shaped his more than 30 years of leadership. Steve shares how growing up in a small town, working in his family's grocery stores and learning from his military parents taught him the value of preparation, consistency, humility and treating people with dignity and respect.

Steve explains why great leaders do not simply tell people what to do, they lead by example. Leadership means owning the results of your team, having the courage to hold difficult conversations and continuing to develop yourself so you can better serve the people around you. As Steve puts it, leadership is not a reward you receive. It is a responsibility you accept.

This conversation is also a reminder that adversity does not create your character. It reveals it. The obstacles, pressure and difficult seasons are often the experiences that develop you into the leader you are capable of becoming.
