What happens when motivation fades, but transformation is still possible?
In this episode of The Asset Mindset Podcast, host Daniel Fielding sits down with Bryan Bush, a former Marine turned corporate leader, to break down why transformation, not motivation, is the real driver of long term success. Bryan shares his transition from military service to corporate leadership, the identity challenges that followed, and how self awareness, accountability, and community became the foundation for growth. Through his work with the Reboot Project, Bryan helps veterans and first responders rediscover purpose, set standards, and build lives rooted in ownership and personal responsibility. This episode is a practical, no, BS conversation on leadership, mindset, and rewriting your story, one day at a time.
