    The Nurse to High Performers & NBA Players - David Nurse

    The doctor may not be in but in this case, I think you'd probably prefer to see the Nurse. The LaunchDad is joined today by his friend David Nurse, a coach, author, and keynote speaker who is widely renowned as one of the top mindset specialists in the world and specializes in helping CEOs, athletes, and high performers maximize their talent. The boys chop it about about leadership, speaking, their incredible wives, mindset, and as fate would have it, they discover that David's love of the Utah Jazz and George's love of the Chicago Bulls makes them mortal enemies.  Visit David Nurse on his site: https://www.davidnurse.com/ Buy David's books: https://www.amazon.com/stores/David-Nurse/author/B08618J5LC?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true Book David to speak: https://www.davidnurse.com/book-david-nurse Hosted by entrepreneur and keynote speaker George Andriopoulos.

    The Unfragile Redemption - Alphonso James

    WE'RE BACK and season 5 is in full swing. What's changed? The theme of The Launchcast has gotten more specific with stories of Leadership & Turnaround at the center of everything. Same deep dive interviews, just different perspectives. On today's show, the Launchdad sits down with the incredible Alphonso James for a story you're not going to believe. Alphonso James was a 17-year-old child in 1985 when he was arrested and falsely convicted of 1st Degree Intentional Homicide for the murder of a man he’d never seen or met. After a brief two-day trial, he was sentenced to Life plus 5 years in prison. Although he was physically confined and dealt with seemingly impossible obstacles to his release, Alphonso found freedom and liberation within himself. He went from a 3rd grade reading level to earning degrees in theology and culinary arts and authoring a memoir. Alphonso worked faithfully and with courageous belief on his own process of inner healing, and today he walks in a hard-earned spirit of love and forgiveness. With tireless persistence, and the work of the Wisconsin Innocence Project, Alphonso was finally freed in 2017 after 32 years of confinement for a crime he did not commit. Besides righting the wrong of his conviction once and for all, Alphonso is committed to inspiring others to break free of the prisons within themselves and pursue their own journey of healing. Find out how Alphonso was able to perform his own turnaround miracle and how he became a leader to those in his community. Hosted by entrepreneur and keynote speaker George Andriopoulos.

    An Idiot’s Guide to the Comeback - A Tiny Soapbox Show

    We're back from a brief holiday hiatus and what better way to come back  than to discuss the art of the comeback? In this tiny soapbox show episode, the LaunchDad briefly dives into the mindset behind a comeback. George looks at the comeback from an optics perspective, a leadership perspective and from a personal perspective. A famous quote once read, "the comeback is always greater than the setback." If you were to accuse us of that famous quote coming from Jersey Shore's "The Situation," well...no comment. Hosted by entrepreneur and keynote/TED speaker George Andriopoulos.
