Anthony Vicino joins Brian for a powerful conversation about the invisible labels that shape our lives—and how they can quietly become the very thing holding us back.
From being told ADHD was a limitation, to building a $100 million real estate business, to navigating the fallout of a devastating business failure and bankruptcy, Anthony shares hard-earned lessons on identity, responsibility, resilience, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are.
Together, they discuss why victim mentality is so dangerous, how successful people navigate failure, the importance of vulnerability, and why the labels we accept often become the limits we live within. If you've ever felt stuck, underestimated, or defined by your past, this conversation will challenge the way you see yourself.
