In this episode of the We Attitude Podcast, David Brosseau sits down with longtime friend and business owner Scott to unpack what it really takes to build something that lasts. From a CPA buying an auto shop with zero mechanical experience to building a business that services over 1,000 cars a month, this conversation is packed with real lessons on leadership, trust, and getting out of your own way. They dive into why most entrepreneurs hit a ceiling, how culture beats competition, and why taking care of your people might be the most profitable decision you can make.

What you will learn  - Why you don’t need to be the expert to build a successful business  - The real reason most people never scale  - How to create a culture people never want to leave  - Why working more hours is not the answer to growth  - The power of trust, transparency, and long-term thinking  - How to balance business success with real life Big takeaway  You are not in the business you think you are.  You are in the people business—everything else is just the product.

    Eliminate the Noise: This Is What Actually Matters

    Success in real estate rarely follows a straight line. In this episode of the We Attitude Podcast, we sit down with Clayton Cobler and Nathan Pfitzer, two agents whose journeys into the industry couldn’t have been more different.

    The Truth About Accountability That No One Wants to Admit Until Now

    Most people think success comes from talent. In reality… it usually starts with something going wrong. In this episode of the We Attitude Podcast, David sits down with Susan to talk about the unexpected path that led her into real estate — including getting fired from her job, losing money to a real estate “guru,” and discovering the power of personal development. What started as a temporary job quickly turned into a completely different life trajectory. They dive into: • The mentor question she’s still thinking about a year later • Why most people avoid identifying their real “why” • The uncomfortable truth about accountability and coaching • Why personal development changed everything • How small adjustments create massive results • Why many real estate agents struggle with growth • The mindset shift that changed her entire career And toward the end of the conversation, Susan shares a goal that surprised even her… Her plan to travel the world alone. Not someday. But within the next few years. This conversation is about far more than real estate — it's about growth, freedom, and the courage to pursue the life you actually want. If you're building a business, chasing growth, or trying to figure out what drives you, this episode will challenge the way you think about success.

    Growth Always Demands Alignment: Why doing more isn’t the same as moving forward

    Growth Always Demands Alignment Why direction matters more than speed Growth is often celebrated.  Alignment is rarely discussed. In this episode, David sits down with Matt to unpack a truth most leaders don’t recognize until later in their journey: growth without alignment comes at a cost. From living in constant fight-or-flight…  to saying yes to opportunities while quietly saying no to relationships…  to realizing that momentum doesn’t always mean progress… This conversation explores what happens when success starts to outpace clarity. They talk about: Why growth eventually exposes misalignmentThe hidden tradeoffs that come with saying yes to everythingHow small alignment issues compound over timeWhy focus becomes harder — not easier — as you growAnd the difference between moving fast and moving in the right directionThis isn’t a tactical episode.  It’s a reflective one. If you’re building something — a business, a career, or a life — this conversation will challenge how you think about growth, focus, and direction. 🎧 Listen if you’re asking: “Am I growing… or just getting busier?”“Why does success feel heavier than I expected?”“What am I trading without realizing it?”

    How to Bet on Yourself: From the Mailroom to the Boardroom

    Most people talk about betting on themselves. Very few talk about what it actually looks like when it goes wrong. In this episode of the We Attitude Podcast, David sits down with one of his closest friends to unpack a journey that didn’t follow a straight line—from the mailroom, to sales, to failed partnerships, to entrepreneurship, and eventually the boardroom. This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a real conversation about: - Trying before you feel ready - Why failure isn’t the problem—fear of failure is - The difference between being good at sales and actually running a business - How networking becomes powerful when it’s intentional - Why partners matter more than ideas - And how confidence is built after action, not before From junior hockey lessons and locker-room brotherhood to business setbacks, leadership growth, and learning to walk into rooms with purpose—this episode breaks down what betting on yourself really means. If you’ve ever felt stuck, hesitant, or unsure of your next move—this conversation is for you. Watch until the end for the mindset shift that separates people who talk about growth from those who actually experience it.

    Proof It’s Not Too Late: Building a Top Team After 40 with Chad Wilson

    In this first podcast episode, David sits down with Chad Wilson from Keller Williams in the St. Louis / St. Charles area to unpack Chad’s journey from military service to real estate leadership. Chad shares how joining the Air National Guard at a young age and spending decades as an air traffic controller—both overseas and at Lambert—shaped his mindset around preparation, adaptability, and performing under pressure. The conversation connects those lessons to real estate, covering Chad’s early experiences with rental properties, the transition into retail real estate, and how focusing on results, relationships, and “running the math” helped him build credibility with clients and builders alike. They also discuss hiring and leverage, learning through adversity, and how those principles continue to guide team growth as the industry evolves and AI begins to play a larger role.
