You’ve probably heard the highlight reels. But what about the hard parts people rarely talk about?

In this episode, Brian Truman shares what he's learned from hosting the From Foundation to Fortune podcast. After interviewing countless high achievers from all walks of life, one thing keeps showing up. It's not luck. It's not a perfect background. It's grit.

From being homeless at 15 to building multi-million dollar businesses, many of these guests had every reason to quit. But they didn’t. They found mentors, stayed creative, and kept their batteries included—that inner drive that doesn’t shut off when life gets hard.

Real estate or not, this episode is packed with life lessons that apply to anyone chasing long-term success.

(00:02):
like I shared my origin story,right?
It's kinda like people's originstories of how they got started
and that, but to your point, thebiggest takeaway is that I've
found from people is their grit.

(01:08):
Batteries included.
They have the hustle muscle thatjust keep going, keep going,
keep going.
