Welcome to Life & Leadership Connected—a podcast about living and leading with purpose, clarity, and impact.
Today’s episode is one I truly enjoyed recording. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Danny Brassell, an internationally recognized speaker, author, trainer, and storytelling expert.
Danny has spent decades helping people—from classrooms to corporate stages—rediscover the joy of learning, the power of story, and the importance of authentic leadership.
In our conversation, Danny shares his personal journey from journalism to teaching to becoming a globally sought-after speaker. We explore why storytelling is more powerful than statistics, how to lead with humor and heart, and how routines and self-discipline form the foundation of lasting influence.
We also talk about legacy—what it really means to serve others, and why your failures, not just your successes, are the keys to building connection and trust.
Whether you’re a young professional finding your voice, or a leader trying to grow in influence and impact, this episode will give you practical wisdom and fresh inspiration.
So grab a notebook—or just lean in—and enjoy this rich and joyful conversation with Dr. Danny Brassell.
