Wealth expert Brendon Burchard shatters conventional thinking about abundance in this transformative conversation. After hitting rock bottom in San Francisco — literally watching his girlfriend sleep under the weight of his unpaid bills — Brendon found his breakthrough moment fighting for someone beyond himself. He reveals how emotions happen to us while feelings are created through meaning, and why most wealthy people transcend survival thinking to build abundance. Through powerful personal stories, Brendon explains why alignment must precede achievement, why assertiveness trumps confidence, and how a particular mindset destroys potential. His journey from broke writer to coaching billionaires offers practical wisdom for anyone feeling stuck, proving that freedom comes not from needing less but from serving more.

Brendon’s books:

• High Performance Habits: How Extraordinary People Become That Way
• The Motivation Manifesto: 9 Declarations to Claim Your Personal Power
• The Millionaire Messenger: Make a Difference and a Fortune Sharing Your Advice

In this episode you will learn:

• How to break free from survival mindset into abundance by fighting for someone beyond yourself
• Why doubt isn't your problem, and how to use doubt as a signal to learn rather than quit
• The Z.A.P.S. framework that explains how negative thinking sabotages success
• Why preparation for what interests you reveals alignment with your true path
• How to develop assertiveness by believing you'll figure things out rather than needing certainty
• Why alignment precedes assignment, which leads to abundance
