Exploring Blind Leaps Through Experience: The Story Of Two Who Transformed Their Lives



Bradley and Jennifer are the hosts of the Blind Lead podcast, which used to be called the NBS by BSF podcast. The podcast has gone through a transformation and will now focus on self-development, finding one's voice, and hearing from people who have taken massive blind leaps. Over the last 18 months, both of them have gone through personal shifts, which is what inspired the name of the podcast. Bradley and Jennifer have gone through career and personal transitions, and now the two of them will kick off the new season of the podcast by talking a bit about their own stories.



Jennifer is vice president of development at NBS, a nutrition startup. She left a nonprofit fundraising job after 18 years and is passionate about helping their clients with weight loss and nutrition. She explains how the first of the month can be a scary time for a small business as everything resets to zero. Bradley and Jennifer didn't know what they were doing when they first got together but overcame the obstacles and are now in a loving and fulfilling relationship.



Jennifer and Bradley are an example of making a bold decision to pursue a relationship despite the risks. They are in a long-distance relationship, living in two different states, but also not long-distance due to them having homes in both locations. They talk about how making decisions in life comes with consequences, and how they are aware of both the good and the bad that came from their decision to be together. They are both very fulfilled in their partnership, which is the most fulfilling of any relationship either of them has been in. They talk about shooting each other straight, and how Jennifer is the more eloquent and polished of the two. They emphasize taking personal responsibility for their decisions and the consequences that come with it.



Jennifer and Bradley have a unique and difficult story of leaving their marriages in order to find true happiness. Bradley explains that the decision to leave was not for Jennifer, but for himself, and that it was a blind leap with no safety net or guarantee of success. Jennifer adds that if you wait for a sign or an exit strategy, you will never be ready for the leap of faith. They both agree that taking that blind leap was terrifying, but ultimately the only way to find true happiness. Bradley also emphasizes that there was a cost to leaving, both financially and emotionally, but that it was worth it to take a chance on happiness.
