The team at Building Momentum has done a LOT of different things over the past few years: We created 34 different prototypes during the height of the Pandemic, We built an entire community education platform, We taught over 3000 active duty service members in ALL branches of the military, and, we made a podcast. We went out and searched for some of the most interesting people we knew and invited them on to talk with us. We laughed, we cried, we made something special that we were excited to share with the world...
We recorded the bulk of these conversations in the fall of 2021 and spring of 2022. A lot has changed since then, my children are older, I'm older, and our company has grown in so many ways.
I’m Allen Brooks, this is Build Mo, and this is our podcast, Breadcrumbs
I'm the Chief Storytelling Officer at Building Momentum and we are a creative problem solving agency. Build Mo does so many things, building amazing tech, designing solutions to the biggest problems we come across, and teaching problem solving to Kids, Grownups, Executives, Service-Members - and much like the people we talk to on Breadcrumbs, we aren't just one thing and we wanted a show that reflects our far reaching interests.
At Building Momentum we love just siting down with people and asking them to tell us a bit of their story. This is where the most important connections come for us. It's the first step in working together, is learning about who our clients are, and where they come from. Sometimes we end up working with them for a long time, and sometimes we find a lifelong friend. However it ends, it always starts by sitting down and talking. So it made sense that this show would be built on that same model.
We thought a podcast would be an ideal platform to have these conversations and celebrate those who are following their true north. So join us for the release of this new and exciting podcast! Let’s break some bread together.

Brad Halsey
We have one final episode for the season, and what better finale then with Building momentum CEO Brad Halsey! I can tell you from personal experience that this man CANNOT slow down. After from Vanderbilt through ROTC, he had about 2 hours to himself before becoming a Lieutenant in the Navy. Since then he's done nothing but solve problems and create positive human impact. He started Building Momentum in his basement and developed (IMO) the greatest training organization in the world.

Bjarke Penderson
Bjarke Pedersen has been creating worlds ever sense he was given a copy of The Hobbit by his local librarian. He’s since left his own shire behind and traveled the globe working on the forefront of an emergent theater; Live Action Role Play (LARP) except, in Nordic LARP, players don’t just run around fields throwing pretend thunderbolts at each other (though that does happen). Instead, players create the very worlds they inhabit in real time. This is participative theater. When Bjarke started down this path, he didn’t know where it would take him, but the route he’s been on has been incredible. You can find out all about his work at http://participation.design - and check out more from Building Momentum at www.buildmo.com and you can find our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and if you like what we’re doing – hit the subscribe button!

Adrian Todd
Adrian Todd Zuniga is truly a writer’s writer. He loves the process of taking an idea from the ether, moving it through his own experience and background and putting it on the page. And he’s done so in practically every medium you can imagine, going so far as being nominated for a Writer’s Guild Award for writing the story mode of Madden ’18 – Did you know that Madden even had a story, let alone a WGA nominated one? NO? Well, that’s on you. Currently Adrian Todd is writing his second novel, but this interview was conducted shortly after his debut novel, Collision Theory was released.
