    Getting to the Heart of what Matters, with Bridget Hilton

    We’re back with another inspiring episode of Behind the Armor, this time diving deep into the heart of what matters with guest Bridget Hilton. From growing up in Flint, Michigan with dreams of being a rock star to founding revolutionary sound company, LSTN—Bridget has always been a pioneer. For today’s conversation, Judd sits down with Bridget to talk all things authenticity, the power of a simple change, and how we can all work to get to the heart of what actually matters in life.  Lessons from the Episode:  1. Sit and Think: So often we’re going so full speed ahead in life that we don’t actually take the time to sit and reflect on what matters most. Take the time to answer that question for yourself, it could change your life.  2. Do Something Bigger: This will look different for each of us, but it’s important to remember that life is more than building our own war chests, it’s about leaving something bigger behind for those who will come after us. What "something bigger” are you working to create today?  3. See the Miracles: There are miracles to be seen all around us, not just in the big events of life. Like Bridget witnessing the simple miracle of someone hearing for the first time, choose to see the everyday miracles that are present all around you.  4. Experiences over Material Possessions: The older we get, the more we realize life is not about how much stuff we collect, but rather about the experiences and people we get to interact with. Don’t let the accumulation of stuff or wealth get in the way of prioritizing those authentic experiences and relationships.  5. Don’t let Loneliness Win: We’re lonelier now than maybe ever before, even though we’re more connected. Work to build authentic connections in your personal life, rather than just relying on online friends or followers. Who you surround yourself with matters so much more than you know.  Learn more about Bridget and her work on her website: https://bridgethilton.com/. And her instagram: @bridgetlhilton CHAPTERS00:00 From Flint to Fame: Bridget's Journey03:13 Discovering What Matters: A Personal Reflection06:11 The Birth of LSTN: A Mission to Help Others Hear09:10 Transformative Moments: Hearing for the First Time12:02 Experiential Billionaires: The Value of Experiences14:50 Challenging Toxic Narratives: Redefining Masculinity17:46 Living Authentically: Finding Your True Self21:06 The Importance of Trying New Things23:59 Community Connection: The Power of Belonging26:48 The Ripple Effect: Impact Beyond Measure30:04 Changing Lives: The Hearing Aid Revolution32:54 Nature and Connection: Finding Peace35:49 Final Thoughts: Embracing Authenticity and Joy Follow me:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/juddshawofficial/Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juddshawofficial/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@juddshawofficial For more inspiring episodes and exclusive content, visit https://www.juddshaw.com
