This special bonus episode is a little different. Today, we’re sharing an episode from another podcast — Shut Up and Thrive! — where our very own Brandon Styll was the guest.
Over the past year, Brandon has experienced profound personal loss. Within a single month, he lost his cousin Blake, his grandmother, and his beloved cat, Mr. Business. While he hasn’t talked much about this journey on Nashville Restaurant Radio, the emotional weight of this season has undoubtedly influenced the way he’s shown up — both on the mic and in life.
In a previous episode of Shut Up and Thrive!, co-hosted with transformational coach Debra Sunderland, Brandon opened up about how the grief was overwhelming and affecting him daily. That conversation became a catalyst — one that led to him booking a trip to California to face the pain head-on, visit the crash site of his cousin’s plane, and begin truly processing the loss.
This episode is the full story — a raw, honest reflection on the past year and what healing has looked like so far. If you’ve noticed some ups and downs with Brandon lately, this might help explain a bit of what’s been going on beneath the surface.
Loss is something we all face, and sharing stories like this helps remind us that none of us are alone.
We hope you’ll give this one a listen — and if you enjoy it, check out more episodes of Shut Up and Thrive! on Spotify with Debra Sunderland.
