    Schedule Your Grief

    Two people can face the same loss and walk away with completely different lives. The variable was never the circumstance. It's the innerstance. In this solo episode, Alan tells the story of the 17 minutes between learning his mentor Jim Hesseman had passed and sitting down to coach a couple who were counting on him — and the two reframes that turned him from a man owned by grief into one who could choose his way through it. Reflective questions for the listener What emotion have you been waiting on your circumstances to give you permission to feel? Is there a grief, or a hard feeling, you've been bracing against instead of giving an appointment to? Which of the three levers — what you see, what you say, what you do — is easiest for you to reach for first? Chapters  00:00 The text at 3:43 00:29 Who Jim was 04:41 When grief used to own me 07:13 Schedule your grief 08:27 Choose your emotion 09:42 The 17 minutes 14:04 Innerstance over circumstance 15:32 You are what you feel 15:47 Feel it first (Dispenza) 17:41 The Triad (Robbins) 22:11 Tribute to Jim and how to help   Frameworks and sources credited Jim Hesseman — Air Care Alliance President, founder of White Feather Flight, 2023 National Aeronautic Association honoree.

    The Email That Took His Kids: Dan Brault on the Conversation That Never Came

    Dan Brault had built a real estate empire and watched it collapse — $800,000 gone in a single quarter. Then his wife ended their marriage by email, took the kids across state lines, and refused the one thing he asked for: a conversation. In this episode, Dan tells the story he's rarely told publicly — and names the one thing that actually heals when time alone can't. A masterclass in flow, presence, and the conversation you've been avoiding. About the guest Dan Brault is a business advisor and the founder of LeaderOS, where he coaches small business owners who've built something successful on the outside but are still trapped by the work on the inside. He's also a partner at Greenstone Ventures, where he operates self-storage, industrial, and multifamily assets with AI-driven underwriting. A husband, father of two, and former top-of-state powerlifter, Dan has spent the last five years rebuilding both a business and a life from the ground up.
