What happens when success isn’t enough?
In this episode of Your Next Best Step, Brek Cockrell sits down with Nick Kennedy, a serial entrepreneur who built and sold three companies, including an airline—before stepping into his true calling as an executive coach.
Nick opens up about:
Growing up with a father in prison and how it shaped his drive.
Building businesses in healthcare and aviation, and what success cost him at home.
The wake-up call from his wife that forced him to redefine leadership.
Why the loneliness of leadership is real, and how vulnerability changes everything.
Lessons from his book The Good Entrepreneur and the practices that keep him grounded today.
Whether you’re a CEO, entrepreneur, or purpose-driven leader, this conversation will challenge you to slow down, stay curious, and take your next best step.
