    A single phrase drives this episode: I'll finally be happy when. Mike and Kevin unpack the trap of someday thinking and the quiet cost of postponing joy in service of a future milestone. From stories of dreams deferred to the empty feeling that can follow achieving a monster goal, they explore why the finish line so often fails to deliver what we expect.

The conversation moves from insight to action, asking what it would look like to choose happiness now rather than waiting for a future version of life to begin. Are you delaying joy for a milestone that may not change how you feel?

    Failure Is the Best Teacher

    Step inside The Inner Circle, where Kevin Dahlstrom and Mike Brown speak freely and honestly without judgment, challenging each other in pursuit of truth. In this first episode, we unpack one of Mike's controversial statement: “I wish upon everyone a failure that brings you to your knees.” We’re not talking about pain for pain’s sake, but about what failure can teach us that success never will. We unpack: • Why the wins don’t teach you nearly as much as the losses • The identity trap we fall into and how to escape it • Why letting go of control can be the most liberating move you make • How to teach your kids resilience without manufacturing pain • The shift from fixed identity to fluid self-definition • What it really means to redefine wealth, purpose, and alignment as fathers, and entrepreneurs If you’ve ever wished for a place to bring your real questions and hear unfiltered truth, this is it. The Inner Circle is where iron sharpens iron and honesty inspires growth.
