Description

“I believe that we all must choose our pain, or our suffering will choose us. I'd rather have influence and control over which one I live in.” - Brian Bogert

In today’s episode, Brian Bogert shares his unique story that became a turning point in his life. Looking back at the struggles, he highlights the importance of asking for help and internalizing our narratives. He discusses his awakening moment throughout his life facing suffering and learning to embrace pain to gain control.

There is a sleeping giant in every human. Brian’s purpose in life is to awaken those giants within and turn them into legends by helping them grab what they believe is just out of their grasp. Brian is a heart surgeon without a blade. He does not start outside with what you need to DO, he starts inside with who you ARE. In a world that is disconnected, Brian is revolutionizing how individuals, leaders, and entrepreneurs deeply connect with their authentic selves to achieve the best version of themselves.

As a human behavior and performance coach, speaker, and business strategist, Brian disrupts the normative approach on how to create sustainable growth and lasting change personally and professionally. His philosophies on “how to embrace pain to avoid suffering,” “people before profits,” and “who before what” has helped individuals and companies discover and activate their limitless potential. Brian and his team lead with intentionality as they are driven by their vision to impact a billion lives by 2045.
