Rookery Studio, so trying to get as many people in
here as possible, So we appreciate you guys coming out.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Let's start this podcast out true. We are the day
podcast fashion.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Let's get your guys of stories on how you found
out about what and then why you guys decided to join.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So Mo, we've already heard her story, but we'll start
with cy here and then kind of go down the line. Yeah.
So I saw at on social media.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
Back when Jamie launch Group one, and I saw everybody
post about them jumping off the cliff and my app
and honestly, I was like, I'm never joining what.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I was scared dude. But my wife actually was the
one that really researched.
Speaker 6 (01:39):
It and found out about it and liked what it was.
Speaker 7 (01:41):
So I thought, what was like a.
Speaker 6 (01:43):
Business networking platform, and she knew what it really was,
so she kind of planted that seed and then over
time found ways to get me involved. And we went
to the B one conference last year, the one with
ed My let oh yeah all that that was an
awesome event and Jimmy actually met my wife and gave
(02:06):
us both tickets. So we showed up and I just
went to every part of it. I was like, yeah,
my pict pete is when somebody does something nice for
somebody or or gives a scholarship or something like that,
and then you don't take advantage of it. So I
was like, oh, I gave us free tickets and to
buy into this program while we're here. So we did
like the shirtless hike up to Stewart Falls, and this
(02:28):
was my first exposure, like with the water guys, and
I thought they said Brideville Falls, so I was like,
that's like a ten minute walk. We pulled all the
way up to Steward Balls and I was like, this
is nuts. Two and a half hours, right, But when
I decided to go, I was kind of nervous, had
some imposter syndrome. But we met at Harmon's before to
drive up and Ben cars Char Ben Care and Michael
(02:54):
McHenry pulled up in a truck and I was just
standing there not knowing anybody that hey, jump in, we
got you and take ARide it. And they thought I
was in the tribe or something, but I wasn't. And man,
the way they just brought me and made me feel comfortable,
shared their experiences about the group, how both of their
lives had changed, and then hung out with me that
whole time.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
I was like, these are cool guys.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
But so that's how I got into douced And the
next time a leadership group opened up, I jumped in.
So that's how I got involved.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I can only imagine being not even in the tribe
and having mckenry and Ben two people to show up people.
Speaker 7 (03:32):
Man, it made me feel so comfortable. They hiked the
whole thing.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
With men friends.
Speaker 7 (03:36):
There was amazing.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Those are probably the two best people you could run
into in that situation.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
I was also gonna say, at least you only did
the shirtless hike.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
We what are we talking about?
Speaker 7 (03:48):
Well, y, you'll hear about the story eventually. Okay, we
had somebody chose to do it barefoot.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Oh I know that's right. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Yet, great story and y'all have them on the podcast later,
so you might have to talking about that.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I love that guy. I forgot about that.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Dan.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Let's hear your story how you found out why decided
to join. Yeah, Jim did.
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Podcast with Jimmy not too long ago, and we talked
about our origin story at least of our relationship, which
is that I was a solar manager like ten twelve
years ago, so.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
He was he could have done really well in Solar.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
In fact, I still think that maybe he would have
exceeded his real estate income if you would have stayed
in Solar.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Probably not, but yeah, he lasted for just a few months.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
And it's the famous story of him just like ditching
out on the competition and I kept going and we
won the competition because I carried him that day, and.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
He was like, great, Joe, we did great.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
It was awesome. He's like in a movie theater with
his date. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Yeah, when it ended.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
But I've known it for a long time. We've admired
each other from kind of across social media. I live
in California, lives in Utah, and I got to know
what through his social media posting. Was very good about it,
and it looked cool. But I just didn't feel pulled
to Joe in any of the group's Group one, Group two,
group three before it kept going all of a sudden.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
I'm just in a chapter of.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
My life where I've realized that I've had mostly transactional
friendships with men in my life because of business. Yeah,
and I'm just sick of it. I'm just like, I
have no real friendships at all. It's all just like
if I in door to door, when you change companies,
you lose your friends. Yeah, like it's just yeah, it's
just the way it is. So so I went through
(05:27):
that for twenty years and got to point in my
life where I was like, I need a different community.
I need it not based on a business that I'm in, and.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
It seemed perfect. Yeah, that's a fit.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
So I yeah, it was just great timing. I knew
it from Afar.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
He did a great job.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
I also was kind of like selfishly like, yeah, he's
been through four groups, so now he knows what he's doing,
so groups would be awesome.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
That was what I thought.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
Group the same thing. But yeah, yeah, that's how I know.
That's how I know what it's been amazing and I
joined for that reason. I also joined to give back.
I was at a point in my life where like
my cup was running over and I was like, I
need to have like some opportunity to serve. And it's
been a beautiful opportunity to serve and I've been served back.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
And it's funny that you said that, because that was
actually kind of the question that I was going to
tee up from O here. But I think we're seeing
more and more people who just want to give back
into the group. I'll give him a shout out because
I think it makes perfect sense here. Thomas Kdocks Stater,
who's in Group six, Me and him had a conversation.
He's really close friends with Mark McCormack, and Mark invited
him to join Group six and he was kind of
(06:33):
going back and forth on it. He records his podcast
here at the studio, So me and him are having
a conversation one day and he was like, I just
don't know if there's anything that.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I need from it. I was like, well, what are
you looking to give? That's perpot right exactly.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
And he was like, yeah, I'd love a community to
give back to, right to be a part of, to
just pour into. And so that kind of teas up
my question from O is, you know, you've been a
part of so many of these groups, so many of
these men's lives. You've heard a lot of these stories
of why.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
People have joined.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
What does that mean to you to be able to
show up for so many different people and show many
different groups and just be kind of almost a cornerstone
piece of what In that way.
Speaker 8 (07:12):
It feels like I've found why I'm here. Yeah, I've
had a couple of revelations over the last few months
about that around you know why I'm here and you
literally on this planet in this life, and it's to
do this work. You know, it's been shown over and
over again.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
And being able to be.
Speaker 8 (07:28):
Part of WHAT since the inception and really diving able
to Group four, being initiated into Group four, and being
with Group five and Group six.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
It just it feels right.
Speaker 8 (07:35):
Like when I'm not with WHAT, when I'm not doing
this work, I kind of feel lost. And when I'm
doing it, I feel like this is where, this is home.
It just it feels easy and it's comfortable. It's just
a beautiful place to be in. You know, it's cool
too because we started doing these workouts a Jimmy's house
on Wednesday mornings, and I know everybody in never group,
and it's weird to know, like somebody else show up,
(07:57):
like they introduce themselves, like, oh yeah, I forget y'all
don't know each other.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
But it's just such a beautiful community.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
Man, you like you nailed it of I only had
superficial friendships and when you get beyond that, like it's
impossible to have just a superficial conversation.
Speaker 7 (08:13):
You know, I can't do it anymore.
Speaker 8 (08:14):
Yeah, And being able to give back to this and
being able to step into a leadership position and you know,
and run a group. I mean, man like again, this
is why I'm here.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
So I love that, and that's what we're talking about today.
These the reason I wanted to do this podcast is
these are the three guys who are running the next
three leadership groups. It's not a secret anymore. Everyone knows this.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Dan is the next up Dan's Group seven. When does
the group start?
Speaker 5 (08:38):
We open it up August fifth, August fifth, and then
we'll have our first call first week of September.
Speaker 7 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Perfect, So we'll make sure that this podcast goes out
before August fifth.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I'll make sure of that. Please do it goes out
on the form exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
This podcast will go out probably that week.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
But let's kind of dive into this because you guys
are starting the groups and it might be a scary journey,
it might be something that you guys don't know what
you're getting yourselves into.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
But what does your mindset look like going into this?
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Dan your first because you're a first group, what's your
mindset going into this.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
Life's interesting because that there's duality, right, So there's this
on the one hand, on the other hand, Right on
the one hand, Jimmy chose me for a reason, and
I know who I am. I think he chose me
for his reasons. It's like he knows I can lead men.
I've done it before, I've done it for years in sales.
He also likes the way I think he likes the
way I present myself, et cetera. There's a lot of
(09:28):
different reasons there. So those are encouraging and kind of
a reflection to me.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Great.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
On the other hand, there's this beautiful platform he's built
that's his baby. Yeah, And I feel humbled and I
feel respectful, and I feel we'll see intimidated for sure,
because I want to respect it so much, I want
to honor it so much, and I want it to
I want the legacy to keep going. So it's a
cool balance between the two. I'm feeling both of those
(09:53):
at the same time. And I think what I do
with this one is I'm asking Jimmy for the.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Outlines of it. Recall, I'm studying those.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
I'm asking him for the lutas outlines I'm asking for
like all the you know.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Logistics, Yeah, because I want to follow those.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
And then what I'm excited about is on this hand,
like I know who I am, I know what I
can add to the group. I'm very intent, and I'll
announce it here, like the theme will be like coming
home to yourself, because that's what the group did to me.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
It helped me.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
It's not that Jimmy is this guru that like gives
you all the answers. It's not at what he's great
at is he allows you to find yourself. He allows
you to find yourself in a group exactly. And so
that'll be the theme of group seven is is a
homecoming to yourself.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
And I've been talking to this to this point with
several perspective members of the group, and they're all just
completely resonating on that, like they're in a chapter of
their life where that's like the key for them. They
almost didn't have words put to it, but that that
made sense.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, Well, in your mindset gone into this.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
I'm excited. I'm ready for it. Yeah. I've been wanting
to do so like this for quite a while. And
when the opportunity was presented.
Speaker 8 (11:03):
I mean it was a one armed cent hell yes
you know, you know, in to echo what you're saying, Dan,
Like Jimmy's laid the foundation's created the groundwork in the
beautiful part about what is you get to be who
you are? You know, we don't ask you to be
anyone different, and it's being able to discover you throughout
these processes of what version of you shows up when
you jump off a rope, swing and moapp what version
(11:24):
of you shows.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
Up when you walk over hot coals?
Speaker 8 (11:27):
What version of you shows up when you get to
look at another man in his eyes and tell him
what you really think of him and get to receive
that feedback, you know, And that's where you find out
the like who actually gives a shit about you? Because
it takes a man to do that stuff. And so
for me, I've actually had somebody when we were in Spain.
Actually he was like why would you do this?
Speaker 7 (11:45):
And I almost get it. Almost it kind of pissed
me off, like what are you talking about? Why would
I not do this?
Speaker 8 (11:50):
I have the gift, We have the gift of serving
men like you guys know as well as I do
Like this program has saved human beings lives.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
Literally, Why I not want to do this?
Speaker 8 (12:01):
Mike, My god, I wake up every day waiting for
may to happen to start group aid, you know, Like
it's just it's just such a beautiful process that we
all get to do because we are leaders of men
by example. You know, we didn't ask for this. We
were chosen for this by design, Like we were put
on this planet.
Speaker 7 (12:18):
To do this, and now's our time. And I'm like,
I'm beyond elady for it.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
I love that ZI mindset going into this.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
Yeah, I'm really excited. This group has changed my life
and I love what what stands for. I mean, the
the core values are integrity, vulnerability, and authenticity, and each
one of those principles is something that I'm still learning,
but I didn't understand until we started doing this work.
(12:48):
And so everybody says they want to join this group,
ninety percent of the guys I've heard, it's like I
want to be around like minded people. Well, like minded
people create a mirror, and that mirror is really sharp,
and it's hard to find that it just anywhere today.
And so that's one thing I love about the group.
(13:09):
And one thing that I'm excited for is to not
lead from the top of a mountain, to not lead
because I'm this, that or the other, but to lead
from a place where I'm standing next to these guys.
I'm holding up a mirror and they're holding up theirs.
You know, we're climbing up this mountain and learning and
driving together. So, like Dan, I am intimidated with this task,
(13:31):
and I know it's going to force me to grow
in a lot of ways that we'll be new and
I'm I'm excited for that. So a lot of excitement.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Yeah, I think that's going to kind He says something
earlier too, that and he just said it again, like, well,
he said it earlier, specifically about this being a business
networking opportunity potentially, Like that's how you saw it, and
then your wife saw something else. I think this is
like the most unintentional bait and switch, like the most
perfect bait and switch possible, Like I do jesus.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I don't think he did this on purpose. I think
like I saw it as the same.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
Thing, like I'm gonna have some business opportunities all make
my money back, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
It's nothing like that.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
I mean that's that's a side effect maybe, but I
want I want WAT to now be seen I think
that's cool to pull some people in, but I want
it to be seen as what it is, too, like,
I want it to be seen as more.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Because it is.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
It's not just rope swings, it's not just business networking.
It's it's coming home to yourself. It's getting fully aligned
back to who you are. And it's very difficult to
do that without a group of men reflecting back the
mirrors climbing up the mountain.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
That's beautiful to and.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
What Jimmie's done so well is every one of these
things you see on social media, from the cliff jump
to you know, the the military training and the torture stuff. Yeah,
people see these crazy things we're doing, but every one
of these is like beautifully curated to show you a
part of yourself that you may have forgotten there. And
you know, some things, like some things that we've done,
(15:01):
what ever challenging for other people, really easy for me.
And there's some things that are really easy for other
people have been really challenging for me. And so just
having that group and that network and that support system
where everybody's got each other's back. Our ultimate goal is
to be better men, husbands, fathers, citizens. Like it's it's
(15:21):
a really cool environment. And that's why I'm so excited
about it, is everyone needs something like this.
Speaker 8 (15:27):
Yeah, yeah, we're doing There's such a deeper meaning behind
all that stuff like the rope swing, the the pre
and before the ropes swing and with the rope swings
signifies You're not going to say it to people that
aren't remember, but like that's a beautiful process. The firewalk,
all these things, like everything. It's not like we just
go do all these fun and venture stuff. You know,
people see that stuff, they see it on social media,
(15:48):
they're like, oh, you guys do all these cool things.
Like if you only knew the depth of why we
did that and the conversations that were had and the
growth that was had, and you know, like being able
to be part of three different groups actively and watching
one hundred and fifty grown men break on a regular
basis is the most beautiful process because in that break
(16:08):
is their growth, you know, And that's.
Speaker 7 (16:10):
What we're here for. We're here to watch.
Speaker 8 (16:12):
We're here to allow them the space to not to
take off the mask, to let go of the facade
and be like, here's who I really am. I'm fucking
scared as shit right now. I don't like myself, my
wife doesn't like me. I hate my job. Welcome because
that beautiful thing when that the most beautiful you guys
know this one of the most powerful processes is the
(16:32):
stepping in the circle and when you see other grown
ass men that are millionaires whatever, successful and like, yeah,
I thought about killed myself last week. Actually yeah, like
wait what or you know I was you know, molested
as a kid or whatever it was like that. I've
been able to witness it every time I watch a
group and it's just really cool to see the faces
(16:54):
in that room go oh yeah, yeah, man, we're all broken.
There's not a man on this planet that can step
in front of another man sec I'm good because you're not.
And that's the beauty of it, the beauty of what
is It allows you to be broken. But it's like
the Cansugi, you know, the Japanese are of repairing povery
with gold, platt and silver.
Speaker 7 (17:13):
Yeah, like we get to take those pieces back. Go here,
your buddy.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
Let me keeps coming up on my Instagram fee by
the way, like over over, and over right, nice, that's beautiful. Yeah,
it's it's interesting how this group doesn't allow really for
performative action, like you're not there to impress anybody, You're
not there to you don't feel.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Judged, super judged by anybody.
Speaker 5 (17:34):
I'm speaking for myself. I guess my own experience, but
I think that that Containers said super properly from the beginning.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
Yeah it is.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Yeah, it's There's a couple of things that I wanted
to touch on. One of the things that Dan said
talking about like Jimmy and his role in all this.
One of the things that Jimmy has always said, and
he has said multiple times to whoever can like ask
questions about what is he always says.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I just said a container, right.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
He always talks about how he's just there to set
the container to bring the community together. That's what he does.
So I think talking with other people in the group,
there might be you know, questions or concerns about Jimmy
not leading groups, but this has been Jimmy's goal all along.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
That's what he's wanted out of this the entire time.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
He's wanted men like you guys to come step up
and be able to lead these roles.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
So let's talk about that a little bit.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Talk about that trust that Jimmy has. This Jimmy's baby,
This is Jimmy's thing, right, This is what Jimmy has
put his life into, This is what his calling is.
To now be able to trust you guys. What does
that mean to you to have someone like Jimmy who
looks at you guys and say, hey, I trust you
guys to run this Dan, let's hope.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
You start again. There's duality there. I trust myself. Yeah,
I don't think I think I mentioned this. Yeah, it
was to Group six. I went to Lake Power with
him recently and I mentioned to them in a fire
circle that Jimmy chose me because at this point in
my life, I finally trust myself. There were moments throughout
my adult life where I didn't trust myself subconsciously, I
(19:01):
didn't even know I didn't really trust myself. And then
that came about over the last few years, really like
fully trusting myself. And I tell myself that story that
he probably wouldn't have chose me if I wasn't in
this position. Yeah, because I think there is an energy,
an energy and kind of a vibe you put out
that you can be trusted and that partially comes from
(19:23):
or a lot of it comes from trusting yourself. So
there's that, and that I lost, I lost the original question.
Uh just it just did trust. Yeah, just Jimmie Truss, Okay,
I'm talking about it.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
There's that. And then.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
So I think that's why he trust me because I
trust myself. And then the fact that he's willing to
trust others to take his baby on. It's I was
just talking to him this morning in the song about this.
He's he knew this had to happen, like you said, Yeah,
he wants it to happen. The it's a natural evolution
of really any successful business or un taking is that
(20:00):
it can survive without you.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Of course, so.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
He's infused his his intention, all of his logistics, all
the stuff that he's done to build this right. It's
now going to be proven that it was built right
by us car carrying the torch on. And so my
main job, honestly, guys, is like to not get in
the way. Yeah, that's my main job. I'm going to
bring my flavor, I'm going to bring the setting of
(20:24):
the container. I'm gonna I'm really good at asking questions.
So I'm gonna bring that socratic method to the table,
but and then I'm just gonna get the hell out
of the way. I love that.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yeah, all your thoughts on that.
Speaker 8 (20:35):
Trust Honestly, it's a it's an affirmation and confirmation that
I'm on the right path. Yeah, that's really it. You know,
I've done a lot of stuff in life. I've been
privileged to do a lot of really cool things a
lot of cool people. And when we had the conversation,
he asked me if I would be open to running
a group. I mean it was it was literally like check,
(20:57):
this is why I'm here. So for me, man, it's
just it solidifies my role in life and everything I've
learned up to this point has gotten me here.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
Yeah, this is really cool.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Yeah, I love that. Sigh your thoughts.
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Yeah, I'm I was just honored, Like and Jimmy and
I spoke about it. I just I felt very honored
that he thought of me like that. So yeah, other
than that said, it's an honor for me to do it.
(21:30):
I think I've been the reason I am who I
am today is it was all forged in fire, Like
there's there's it's all from making it through difficult things
and difficult times and men we go through that alone,
and so what was a big deal because I could
(21:52):
go through that with other people and it made a
big difference for me. I think Jimmy cen that growth
and I just want to honor the container that he's
created because it did that for me. And like Dan said,
get out of the way. Just let these guys experience
this for themselves. Exactly help themselves through this fire, because
everybody's going through it.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, that's what it's for. Here's real quick.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
Here's the humbling part, Nick, is if you wouldn't have
made those decisions in the fire that you did, you
wouldn't have had this opportunity.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
That's the coolest shit I think is like everything you
did to choose correctly, Well, we make mistakes, of course,
but you know, the choices you made to lead you
up to this point is very humbling to think of
it that way in retrospect.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
So yeah, agreed, agreed.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
One of the things Connor Delane said this on this podcast,
and it's really resonated with me. He always said, he
said that I can't attribute everything that's happened in the
last two years to what, But I can't imagine what
it would be like without it. And that's exactly what
you're talking about. Yeah, setting it up, getting the container
set up, and then kind of just being there and
(22:56):
being out of the way and just letting the journey
experience itself.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Right sid you have something on that you look like, Yeah, I.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
Mean, what is fantastic And I'm complimented Tommy a million
times on it.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
But you get out of it what you put in exactly.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
And I mean, I'll be very honest. In our group,
I've seen guys that have poured into the group and
they are you can't even recognize them from a year
ago when we started.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
And I've seen the opposite too, guys that you know,
they're paying an expensive fee, an expensive for you to
for it, and then they're not getting the same out
of it. And there's no judgment attached to me saying that.
But this really is a space where we come to
do work, where we come to be better, and it's
(23:42):
ultimately to experience this life better. I mean, when none
of us are going to find peace and calmon happiness
when everything's easy, we're going to find it, or we're
going through stuff, and frankly, the age from you know,
maybe upper twenties to mid forties fifties, that there's a
lot of different struggles that we go through in that time.
(24:05):
That's this group is meant for it for people to
come pour into it and get everything they can out
of it during this hard You know.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
It's cool too because you I don't know if you guys,
you probably have this, but it always happens when usually
when I'm going through something, somebody will randomly reach out
just to check in, you know, like this week has
been relatively tough, and one of guys from Drew five, Yeah,
Grew five reached out like, hey man, thanks for doing
what you did yesterday.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
I really appreciate you pouring into us. I'm like, you
have no idea. Wasn't it forty five minute mark?
Speaker 8 (24:44):
I love you two guys, But no, dude, it was
like it was at the perfect moment. I was like,
oh my god, dude, I needed to hear that.
Speaker 7 (24:51):
And you're your points. I like, we we we love
to suffer in silence as men. Got to hold that
stuff in. I'll put it down here.
Speaker 8 (24:58):
But when you have other dudes just only checking on you,
like it's a beautiful thing, you know. I shared with
the guy last night at the event who When I
first met him, he was like I introduced myself. He's like, hey,
I'm so and so, so what do you do? And
I looked at him, was like what do I do?
And I kind of I didn't mean to, but I
probably sound like a dick, we I said. I was like,
what do you mean what I do? Like do you
(25:19):
mean like what? Because it's such a suit, but that's
what we do, you know, as a man, especially like hey,
so what do you do?
Speaker 7 (25:24):
How do you who's your team? I don't care.
Speaker 8 (25:27):
But it's just such a beautiful thing that we get
so much deeper than that. It's not all about like
you know, I don't want people that darn and want
to hear this and be like it is it just
all touchy feeling.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
No.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
But I've said I Love you to more grown men
in the last two years than I have probably my
adult life. And I guarantee you in a weekend we
say I love you and get more hugs in a
forty eight to seventy two hour period most grown men
do in their entire life.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
And that's the beauty I.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
Was a phone call last night with the prospective guy.
I've only I've never I've only met him once and
I've i've had never had more than like two three
comas with him. But I was telling them I was
pour my heart out about what to him last night.
At the end of the conversation, he said, I love you.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
I was like, I don't even know, Scott.
Speaker 7 (26:07):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
But it was cool because and he explained why.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
He's like, listen, I learned long ago he had a
mentor that he lost. He was like twenty six years
old when he died. And he's like, I just learned
to if I feel it, I say it now.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I just don't hold back. It's really cool.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not sure that it was cool.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Yeah, that's Awesome's let's let's ask this question because you know.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
We talk about the leadership groups on this podcast a lot.
Speaker 4 (26:33):
Why you know, we want guys from the tribe to
be in the tribe, be a part of it, pour
yourself into it. Just like say said, you're going to
get what you give, right, There's a lot of guys
who have been in the tribe for a long time
who get so much out of this group.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
They don't necessarily need to be in a leadership group.
But let's ask the question, why go from the tribe
to the leadership group? What makes that different and what
makes that difference for you guys.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
What is your guys' goal in that and make that
experience its own different thing from the tribe.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Dan, we'll have you go first. Yeah, the tribe is cool.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
The tribe's a thing in and of itself that shouldn't
be seen as because I think there's a mistake we
can make, like, well, that's like a training ground. Then
you go to leadership, that's not it. So it's a
thing in and of itself. It's perfect for.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
What it is. If you feel pulled, if you feel
called to have a more intensive experience.
Speaker 5 (27:23):
Yeah, that's what I would say the leadership group's about.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
And it's called leadership group for a reason.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
If you feel called to be a leader, or if
you're already leading in your life and you want to
just level up as a leader, that's what it's for. Yeah,
So if you're looking for a more intensive experience, more
leadership ability, and it's not just about leading other people,
it's mostly about leading yourself. Okay, let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
And if you're.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
Looking for a greater investment in all ways in yourself
that you're going to be putting out there to then
get back again. It blows my mind why people would
invest in without like putting their all into it. Yeah,
I think the leadership group's right for you. There's also
going to be I mentioned this, but there's like this
(28:09):
underlying element to it, where there's this this poll in
your life and I think it's just a convergence of
events that have happened to you where you're either at a.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Low or you're at a high.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
There's some kind of extreme maybe that's happening in your
life right now to somebody that's listening, and you're like,
well what do I do with this? Where can I
go from here? Yeah, it's a new horizon that you're
looking for, and that's that's good. Airship group would serve
you very well.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 8 (28:34):
Well, I'll try to think of fun analogy. Nodada came
Tom's anchorman when he's logged in the last case of Emotion.
Speaker 7 (28:43):
I don't know why it comes up, but is what
happened perfect? Yeah? Right, I mean it kind of is though.
If you think about it.
Speaker 8 (28:52):
So the tribe is a beautiful it's a beautiful entry
point to really start learning about self development. And you
get to hear other like minded man. You get to
hear great speakers. And then if you really want the
immersive experience, it literally is it's like you're standing behind
this class wall, but I can't touch you. I can't really,
I can't physically put my hands on you. I can
see you, I can hear you. But then as soon
as the call is done, it's like this veil comes
(29:13):
up and it's black again until next Tuesday at one pm.
Speaker 7 (29:16):
The senter time.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
Whereas the leadership group allows you the opportunity to immerse yourself,
literally immerse yourself into the culture on a regular basis,
not just with calls, but with the accountabilities and in
the in the at the Lootis weekends. You guys know
this man like, that's where the magic happens. You know,
the growth happens, the brotherhood happens, the friendships everything, and
when you get to be in a room with forty
(29:40):
nine other grown men that are again you because we
can all put on a facade behind a zoom screen,
but when we're face to face one on one and
you really want to elicit change your life, but you're
scared as hell, don't know how to do it, but
you've got a wall of warriors behind you.
Speaker 7 (29:56):
That's what the Leadership Group is about.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Ye I love that.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Yeah, I come from an athletic background as a football player.
I'd been on teams the majority of my life. That's
what the Leadership Group is to me. Is I would
call the lotises like a game, right, But.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, the tribe's great.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
You're gonna learn great things and like most said, you're
gonna get the calls, all the local stuff, and it's
a fantastic network. It's better than anything out there, flat
out sure. When you join the Leadership Group, you're on
a team with those guys, and it's just like going
to practice, going to battle with teammates. Iron sharpens iron,
(30:41):
get a back to the mirror thing. You have all
these guys holding up a mirror. This is who this is,
who Sai is. We know the authentic, vulnerable version of Si,
and he looks like this. And now I have a
standard of living that these guys know. And so when
I go home to my family, when I go to work,
when I go out in the world. This is the standard.
(31:03):
It's what we created on these lunases. That's what I
created with these teammates. So I think that's the difference.
I think the tribe is amazing. I think you can
have a ton of growth from the tribe. But if
you want to step that growth up and have tons
of accountability, tons of mirrors and a team that's supporting
you through that, that's where the leadership group is necessary.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
And I'll tell you this and you guys know this too.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
Man, if you're in a relationship, man, the amount of
you know, girlfriends, wives that we've heard that I know
I've heard like this is save my husband and change
our marriage for the better. Yeah, you're a different he's
a different human because of what Yep, you know.
Speaker 7 (31:38):
And that's the thing.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
It's like, it's just you can't It's it's almost indescribable.
You know, Like if you you could imagine when you
see a group of your best friends every three months
and everybody's.
Speaker 7 (31:50):
So excited to see you.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
You know, it's like that that camp field when you're
a kid, you see your boys want a summer or
something like that. Imagine that as a grown man every
three months.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Yeah, I actually want to talk about that.
Speaker 5 (31:59):
It's a different level of growth, like I think is
what the theme is here to get into the leadership group.
But I thought at first maybe the three months was
like not enough for whatever. But it's the perfect amount
of time. It's like perfect it is. It really is
like leading up to it, there's all this excitement after it,
there's a tale and then there's a muddy metal where
you're like having to integrate and figure things out on
your own little bit, and then you come back up
(32:19):
to it again and it's it's beautiful and there's more
work that's done in those in those three days at
the loutises. Then then I.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Don't know what to compare it to. It's just more
work than I expected. It's more work than some people
doing their entire life.
Speaker 6 (32:32):
So correct, every single one changes my life in some way. Yeah,
you leave every single one with a massive download. That's
like okay, that's that's the next mark happening.
Speaker 8 (32:42):
I mean again, I've been too everyone with three groups now.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Literally everyone, Yeah, you're about to go to this.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
This one's special, that's the thing.
Speaker 8 (32:57):
Man, Like this it never gets old because it's your
beautiful process.
Speaker 7 (33:01):
Like every weekend, like I know what's going to happen.
Speaker 8 (33:04):
I do, and it's still amazing. It's like, you know,
I know, I know what, I know what the gift
is on the tree, but I'm still so excited to
open it and lose.
Speaker 7 (33:13):
It's a different color graft. It's a little bit different
and with the loss.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
We talked about the container that Jimmy creates, but honestly,
what it is is it's a container that is so
safe that you can take a masculine man that has all.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
These shields, that has worries about his.
Speaker 6 (33:29):
Reputation and looking dumb, and insecurities about income or whatever.
It could be like the man. We come in with
thousands of different things, but the container is so safe
that you feel okay to let go of all that
for a second and lean into you know, your feelings
and things that as masculine men we kind of suppress
(33:49):
them push away, and then you have a team of
guys supporting you and doing it like that's why every
single time you leave, it's like, man, I needed that exactly.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
It's It's changed my life, It's changed all of your
guys' life.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
It's changed everyone's life. Who's been a part of it.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
Right, I joined the tribe, it would summer Fest two
years ago, So it's almost two years basically to the
day that I joined the tribe and I went into
it and I said, I'm just going to experience this.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
I'm gonna dive in one hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (34:17):
I don't think I've done a lot of things one
hundred percent my entire life, but to your point, say,
I'm going to pour myself into this. Right, that breath
work session that Summerfest changed my life.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
The Olympics was so.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
Much fun, Like everything that was just a part of
it was just so much fun. I was like, I
need more of this, just get this injected into my veins,
Like I need more of this. I sign up for
the leadership group like the next day after Summer Fest.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
So what I'm saying here is exactly good job.
Speaker 4 (34:42):
What I'm saying here is pour your art into this,
and if it's the right thing for you to do,
take advantage of it.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Join the leadership groups. You guys.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
It's very special to see how this has evolved and
to see more people being able to take over responsibilities
like the leadership groups. And these are three guys right
here in front of me, who are incredible human beings,
incredible men who can lead groups like this incredibly And
I'm super excited to see how that goes for you guys.
Hopefully you'll recommend people to come on the WA podcast
when you guys have your own groups, that would be
(35:12):
that would be a huge of course, exactly, thank you
guys for doing this that you guys are coming on
the podcast. In true what podcast fashion, one of the
things that we do is we give a shout out
at the end of every podcast to one of the
brothers in the group.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
You guys got someone in mine?
Speaker 5 (35:28):
Yeah, a lot of people in mind, man, just one,
just one that's so tough. But I'll pick Alec from
l G five. Alex the young Buck reminds me of myself.
He's got some quirks like I did and do, and uh,
he's just a good He's just a good guy. He
wants to do the right thing always. He's always looking
(35:48):
to level up while dealing with his like like all
of us, have his.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
Distortions, his his challenges.
Speaker 5 (35:55):
Yeah, he's got a lot going for him and but
he he's super super humble. So I just love the guy.
I just want to give him shout out.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
Love that mouth Dallas all Phil, my boy, he stole mine.
Speaker 8 (36:11):
Yeah, dude, Dallas, Like you know this nick like watching
him grow over the last couple of years. Like you
see Dallas and you see all the things he does.
Like the dude just he just tied himself to his
wingsuit on the top of his corvette and drove it
across the salt flats at one hundred and thirty miles
an hour. Yep, to be the first person ever to
wing suit over his corvette.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Oh wow, Yeah, how did he stop?
Speaker 7 (36:32):
How did I mean? He just kind of comes down.
I guess I asked that question.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
He figures it out.
Speaker 7 (36:37):
Yeah, he just figures it out.
Speaker 8 (36:38):
But you you have this guy who does all this
crazy stuff but also is intimidated to speak to people.
Speaker 7 (36:43):
Yeah, and now he's putting himself out there.
Speaker 8 (36:45):
He's he actually you know he led the tribe call
and just dude, watching his growth and that guy has
such a huge heart that is now.
Speaker 7 (36:53):
He is seeing it.
Speaker 8 (36:54):
He's seeing his potential as a leader, and it's just
a beautiful thing to watch.
Speaker 7 (36:58):
It's like watching this flower blossom. It's so cool. Love
him so much.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Way before, so I goes all because I was going
to say doll like Dallas was the first person game
in my mind too, because it's seeing him. The leadership
groups are cool because we do all these crazy stuff.
We jump off cliffs, we do hockhole locks, and it's
like I see Dallas as not having fear and just
going into it with everything and he wants to experience life.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
And to see him go from that where it's just
like this unrestricted.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
Badass that he still is but now wants to do
so more as a part of the group is so
cool to see as a development.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
So yeah, huge shout at the Dallas side.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
Who you got My buddy Nick Johnson came to mind.
Nick sa do you guys got to have on this podcast?
His story is incredible. I tell him every time I
see him, you got to write a book. Man can
inspire the whole world. But yeah, man, Nick has made
like he's one of those guys that if you were
to look at him now versus a year ago, he's
(37:53):
just a completely different dude. Yeah, he's got a new
light about him. He seems happy. So love you Nick,
Love that good guy.

It and found out about it and liked what it was.
Speaker 7 (01:41):
So I thought, what was like a.
Speaker 6 (01:43):
Business networking platform, and she knew what it really was,
so she kind of planted that seed and then over
time found ways to get me involved. And we went
to the B one conference last year, the one with
ed My let oh yeah all that that was an
awesome event and Jimmy actually met my wife and gave
(02:06):
us both tickets. So we showed up and I just
went to every part of it. I was like, yeah,
my pict pete is when somebody does something nice for
somebody or or gives a scholarship or something like that,
and then you don't take advantage of it. So I
was like, oh, I gave us free tickets and to
buy into this program while we're here. So we did
like the shirtless hike up to Stewart Falls, and this
(02:28):
was my first exposure, like with the water guys, and
I thought they said Brideville Falls, so I was like,
that's like a ten minute walk. We pulled all the
way up to Steward Balls and I was like, this
is nuts. Two and a half hours, right, But when
I decided to go, I was kind of nervous, had
some imposter syndrome. But we met at Harmon's before to
drive up and Ben cars Char Ben Care and Michael
(02:54):
McHenry pulled up in a truck and I was just
standing there not knowing anybody that hey, jump in, we
got you and take ARide it. And they thought I
was in the tribe or something, but I wasn't. And man,
the way they just brought me and made me feel comfortable,
shared their experiences about the group, how both of their
lives had changed, and then hung out with me that
whole time.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
I was like, these are cool guys.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
But so that's how I got into douced And the
next time a leadership group opened up, I jumped in.
So that's how I got involved.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I can only imagine being not even in the tribe
and having mckenry and Ben two people to show up people.
Speaker 7 (03:32):
Man, it made me feel so comfortable. They hiked the
whole thing.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
With men friends.
Speaker 7 (03:36):
There was amazing.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Those are probably the two best people you could run
into in that situation.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
I was also gonna say, at least you only did
the shirtless hike.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
We what are we talking about?
Speaker 7 (03:48):
Well, y, you'll hear about the story eventually. Okay, we
had somebody chose to do it barefoot.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Oh I know that's right. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Yet, great story and y'all have them on the podcast later,
so you might have to talking about that.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I love that guy. I forgot about that.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Dan.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Let's hear your story how you found out why decided
to join. Yeah, Jim did.
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Podcast with Jimmy not too long ago, and we talked
about our origin story at least of our relationship, which
is that I was a solar manager like ten twelve
years ago, so.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
He was he could have done really well in Solar.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
In fact, I still think that maybe he would have
exceeded his real estate income if you would have stayed
in Solar.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Probably not, but yeah, he lasted for just a few months.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
And it's the famous story of him just like ditching
out on the competition and I kept going and we
won the competition because I carried him that day, and.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
He was like, great, Joe, we did great.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
It was awesome. He's like in a movie theater with
his date. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Yeah, when it ended.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
But I've known it for a long time. We've admired
each other from kind of across social media. I live
in California, lives in Utah, and I got to know
what through his social media posting. Was very good about it,
and it looked cool. But I just didn't feel pulled
to Joe in any of the group's Group one, Group two,
group three before it kept going all of a sudden.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
I'm just in a chapter of.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
My life where I've realized that I've had mostly transactional
friendships with men in my life because of business. Yeah,
and I'm just sick of it. I'm just like, I
have no real friendships at all. It's all just like
if I in door to door, when you change companies,
you lose your friends. Yeah, like it's just yeah, it's
just the way it is. So so I went through
(05:27):
that for twenty years and got to point in my
life where I was like, I need a different community.
I need it not based on a business that I'm in, and.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
It seemed perfect. Yeah, that's a fit.
Speaker 5 (05:39):
So I yeah, it was just great timing. I knew
it from Afar.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
He did a great job.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
I also was kind of like selfishly like, yeah, he's
been through four groups, so now he knows what he's doing,
so groups would be awesome.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
That was what I thought.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
Group the same thing. But yeah, yeah, that's how I know.
That's how I know what it's been amazing and I
joined for that reason. I also joined to give back.
I was at a point in my life where like
my cup was running over and I was like, I
need to have like some opportunity to serve. And it's
been a beautiful opportunity to serve and I've been served back.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
And it's funny that you said that, because that was
actually kind of the question that I was going to
tee up from O here. But I think we're seeing
more and more people who just want to give back
into the group. I'll give him a shout out because
I think it makes perfect sense here. Thomas Kdocks Stater,
who's in Group six, Me and him had a conversation.
He's really close friends with Mark McCormack, and Mark invited
him to join Group six and he was kind of
(06:33):
going back and forth on it. He records his podcast
here at the studio, So me and him are having
a conversation one day and he was like, I just
don't know if there's anything that.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I need from it. I was like, well, what are
you looking to give? That's perpot right exactly.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
And he was like, yeah, I'd love a community to
give back to, right to be a part of, to
just pour into. And so that kind of teas up
my question from O is, you know, you've been a
part of so many of these groups, so many of
these men's lives. You've heard a lot of these stories
of why.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
People have joined.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
What does that mean to you to be able to
show up for so many different people and show many
different groups and just be kind of almost a cornerstone
piece of what In that way.
Speaker 8 (07:12):
It feels like I've found why I'm here. Yeah, I've
had a couple of revelations over the last few months
about that around you know why I'm here and you
literally on this planet in this life, and it's to
do this work. You know, it's been shown over and
over again.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
And being able to be.
Speaker 8 (07:28):
Part of WHAT since the inception and really diving able
to Group four, being initiated into Group four, and being
with Group five and Group six.
Speaker 7 (07:34):
It just it feels right.
Speaker 8 (07:35):
Like when I'm not with WHAT, when I'm not doing
this work, I kind of feel lost. And when I'm
doing it, I feel like this is where, this is home.
It just it feels easy and it's comfortable. It's just
a beautiful place to be in. You know, it's cool
too because we started doing these workouts a Jimmy's house
on Wednesday mornings, and I know everybody in never group,
and it's weird to know, like somebody else show up,
(07:57):
like they introduce themselves, like, oh yeah, I forget y'all
don't know each other.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
But it's just such a beautiful community.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
Man, you like you nailed it of I only had
superficial friendships and when you get beyond that, like it's
impossible to have just a superficial conversation.
Speaker 7 (08:13):
You know, I can't do it anymore.
Speaker 8 (08:14):
Yeah, And being able to give back to this and
being able to step into a leadership position and you know,
and run a group. I mean, man like again, this
is why I'm here.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
So I love that, and that's what we're talking about today.
These the reason I wanted to do this podcast is
these are the three guys who are running the next
three leadership groups. It's not a secret anymore. Everyone knows this.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Dan is the next up Dan's Group seven. When does
the group start?
Speaker 5 (08:38):
We open it up August fifth, August fifth, and then
we'll have our first call first week of September.
Speaker 7 (08:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Perfect, So we'll make sure that this podcast goes out
before August fifth.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I'll make sure of that. Please do it goes out
on the form exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
This podcast will go out probably that week.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
But let's kind of dive into this because you guys
are starting the groups and it might be a scary journey,
it might be something that you guys don't know what
you're getting yourselves into.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
But what does your mindset look like going into this?
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Dan your first because you're a first group, what's your
mindset going into this.
Speaker 5 (09:07):
Life's interesting because that there's duality, right, So there's this
on the one hand, on the other hand, Right on
the one hand, Jimmy chose me for a reason, and
I know who I am. I think he chose me
for his reasons. It's like he knows I can lead men.
I've done it before, I've done it for years in sales.
He also likes the way I think he likes the
way I present myself, et cetera. There's a lot of
(09:28):
different reasons there. So those are encouraging and kind of
a reflection to me.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Great.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
On the other hand, there's this beautiful platform he's built
that's his baby. Yeah, And I feel humbled and I
feel respectful, and I feel we'll see intimidated for sure,
because I want to respect it so much, I want
to honor it so much, and I want it to
I want the legacy to keep going. So it's a
cool balance between the two. I'm feeling both of those
(09:53):
at the same time. And I think what I do
with this one is I'm asking Jimmy for the.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Outlines of it. Recall, I'm studying those.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
I'm asking him for the lutas outlines I'm asking for
like all the you know.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Logistics, Yeah, because I want to follow those.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
And then what I'm excited about is on this hand,
like I know who I am, I know what I
can add to the group. I'm very intent, and I'll
announce it here, like the theme will be like coming
home to yourself, because that's what the group did to me.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
It helped me.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
It's not that Jimmy is this guru that like gives
you all the answers. It's not at what he's great
at is he allows you to find yourself. He allows
you to find yourself in a group exactly. And so
that'll be the theme of group seven is is a
homecoming to yourself.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
And I've been talking to this to this point with
several perspective members of the group, and they're all just
completely resonating on that, like they're in a chapter of
their life where that's like the key for them. They
almost didn't have words put to it, but that that
made sense.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
Yeah, Well, in your mindset gone into this.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
I'm excited. I'm ready for it. Yeah. I've been wanting
to do so like this for quite a while. And
when the opportunity was presented.
Speaker 8 (11:03):
I mean it was a one armed cent hell yes
you know, you know, in to echo what you're saying, Dan,
Like Jimmy's laid the foundation's created the groundwork in the
beautiful part about what is you get to be who
you are? You know, we don't ask you to be
anyone different, and it's being able to discover you throughout
these processes of what version of you shows up when
you jump off a rope, swing and moapp what version
(11:24):
of you shows.
Speaker 7 (11:25):
Up when you walk over hot coals?
Speaker 8 (11:27):
What version of you shows up when you get to
look at another man in his eyes and tell him
what you really think of him and get to receive
that feedback, you know, And that's where you find out
the like who actually gives a shit about you? Because
it takes a man to do that stuff. And so
for me, I've actually had somebody when we were in Spain.
Actually he was like why would you do this?
Speaker 7 (11:45):
And I almost get it. Almost it kind of pissed
me off, like what are you talking about? Why would
I not do this?
Speaker 8 (11:50):
I have the gift, We have the gift of serving
men like you guys know as well as I do
Like this program has saved human beings lives.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
Literally, Why I not want to do this?
Speaker 8 (12:01):
Mike, My god, I wake up every day waiting for
may to happen to start group aid, you know, Like
it's just it's just such a beautiful process that we
all get to do because we are leaders of men
by example. You know, we didn't ask for this. We
were chosen for this by design, Like we were put
on this planet.
Speaker 7 (12:18):
To do this, and now's our time. And I'm like,
I'm beyond elady for it.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
I love that ZI mindset going into this.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
Yeah, I'm really excited. This group has changed my life
and I love what what stands for. I mean, the
the core values are integrity, vulnerability, and authenticity, and each
one of those principles is something that I'm still learning,
but I didn't understand until we started doing this work.
(12:48):
And so everybody says they want to join this group,
ninety percent of the guys I've heard, it's like I
want to be around like minded people. Well, like minded
people create a mirror, and that mirror is really sharp,
and it's hard to find that it just anywhere today.
And so that's one thing I love about the group.
(13:09):
And one thing that I'm excited for is to not
lead from the top of a mountain, to not lead
because I'm this, that or the other, but to lead
from a place where I'm standing next to these guys.
I'm holding up a mirror and they're holding up theirs.
You know, we're climbing up this mountain and learning and
driving together. So, like Dan, I am intimidated with this task,
(13:31):
and I know it's going to force me to grow
in a lot of ways that we'll be new and
I'm I'm excited for that. So a lot of excitement.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Yeah, I think that's going to kind He says something
earlier too, that and he just said it again, like, well,
he said it earlier, specifically about this being a business
networking opportunity potentially, Like that's how you saw it, and
then your wife saw something else. I think this is
like the most unintentional bait and switch, like the most
perfect bait and switch possible, Like I do jesus.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I don't think he did this on purpose. I think
like I saw it as the same.
Speaker 5 (14:05):
Thing, like I'm gonna have some business opportunities all make
my money back, blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
It's nothing like that.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
I mean that's that's a side effect maybe, but I
want I want WAT to now be seen I think
that's cool to pull some people in, but I want
it to be seen as what it is, too, like,
I want it to be seen as more.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Because it is.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
It's not just rope swings, it's not just business networking.
It's it's coming home to yourself. It's getting fully aligned
back to who you are. And it's very difficult to
do that without a group of men reflecting back the
mirrors climbing up the mountain.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
That's beautiful to and.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
What Jimmie's done so well is every one of these
things you see on social media, from the cliff jump
to you know, the the military training and the torture stuff. Yeah,
people see these crazy things we're doing, but every one
of these is like beautifully curated to show you a
part of yourself that you may have forgotten there. And
you know, some things, like some things that we've done,
(15:01):
what ever challenging for other people, really easy for me.
And there's some things that are really easy for other
people have been really challenging for me. And so just
having that group and that network and that support system
where everybody's got each other's back. Our ultimate goal is
to be better men, husbands, fathers, citizens. Like it's it's
(15:21):
a really cool environment. And that's why I'm so excited
about it, is everyone needs something like this.
Speaker 8 (15:27):
Yeah, yeah, we're doing There's such a deeper meaning behind
all that stuff like the rope swing, the the pre
and before the ropes swing and with the rope swings
signifies You're not going to say it to people that
aren't remember, but like that's a beautiful process. The firewalk,
all these things, like everything. It's not like we just
go do all these fun and venture stuff. You know,
people see that stuff, they see it on social media,
(15:48):
they're like, oh, you guys do all these cool things.
Like if you only knew the depth of why we
did that and the conversations that were had and the
growth that was had, and you know, like being able
to be part of three different groups actively and watching
one hundred and fifty grown men break on a regular
basis is the most beautiful process because in that break
(16:08):
is their growth, you know, And that's.
Speaker 7 (16:10):
What we're here for. We're here to watch.
Speaker 8 (16:12):
We're here to allow them the space to not to
take off the mask, to let go of the facade
and be like, here's who I really am. I'm fucking
scared as shit right now. I don't like myself, my
wife doesn't like me. I hate my job. Welcome because
that beautiful thing when that the most beautiful you guys
know this one of the most powerful processes is the
(16:32):
stepping in the circle and when you see other grown
ass men that are millionaires whatever, successful and like, yeah,
I thought about killed myself last week. Actually yeah, like
wait what or you know I was you know, molested
as a kid or whatever it was like that. I've
been able to witness it every time I watch a
group and it's just really cool to see the faces
(16:54):
in that room go oh yeah, yeah, man, we're all broken.
There's not a man on this planet that can step
in front of another man sec I'm good because you're not.
And that's the beauty of it, the beauty of what
is It allows you to be broken. But it's like
the Cansugi, you know, the Japanese are of repairing povery
with gold, platt and silver.
Speaker 7 (17:13):
Yeah, like we get to take those pieces back. Go here,
your buddy.
Speaker 5 (17:15):
Let me keeps coming up on my Instagram fee by
the way, like over over, and over right, nice, that's beautiful. Yeah,
it's it's interesting how this group doesn't allow really for
performative action, like you're not there to impress anybody, You're
not there to you don't feel.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Judged, super judged by anybody.
Speaker 5 (17:34):
I'm speaking for myself. I guess my own experience, but
I think that that Containers said super properly from the beginning.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
Yeah it is.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Yeah, it's There's a couple of things that I wanted
to touch on. One of the things that Dan said
talking about like Jimmy and his role in all this.
One of the things that Jimmy has always said, and
he has said multiple times to whoever can like ask
questions about what is he always says.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I just said a container, right.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
He always talks about how he's just there to set
the container to bring the community together. That's what he does.
So I think talking with other people in the group,
there might be you know, questions or concerns about Jimmy
not leading groups, but this has been Jimmy's goal all along.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
That's what he's wanted out of this the entire time.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
He's wanted men like you guys to come step up
and be able to lead these roles.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
So let's talk about that a little bit.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Talk about that trust that Jimmy has. This Jimmy's baby,
This is Jimmy's thing, right, This is what Jimmy has
put his life into, This is what his calling is.
To now be able to trust you guys. What does
that mean to you to have someone like Jimmy who
looks at you guys and say, hey, I trust you
guys to run this Dan, let's hope.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
You start again. There's duality there. I trust myself. Yeah,
I don't think I think I mentioned this. Yeah, it
was to Group six. I went to Lake Power with
him recently and I mentioned to them in a fire
circle that Jimmy chose me because at this point in
my life, I finally trust myself. There were moments throughout
my adult life where I didn't trust myself subconsciously, I
(19:01):
didn't even know I didn't really trust myself. And then
that came about over the last few years, really like
fully trusting myself. And I tell myself that story that
he probably wouldn't have chose me if I wasn't in
this position. Yeah, because I think there is an energy,
an energy and kind of a vibe you put out
that you can be trusted and that partially comes from
(19:23):
or a lot of it comes from trusting yourself. So
there's that, and that I lost, I lost the original question.
Uh just it just did trust. Yeah, just Jimmie Truss, Okay,
I'm talking about it.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
There's that. And then.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
So I think that's why he trust me because I
trust myself. And then the fact that he's willing to
trust others to take his baby on. It's I was
just talking to him this morning in the song about this.
He's he knew this had to happen, like you said, Yeah,
he wants it to happen. The it's a natural evolution
of really any successful business or un taking is that
(20:00):
it can survive without you.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Of course, so.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
He's infused his his intention, all of his logistics, all
the stuff that he's done to build this right. It's
now going to be proven that it was built right
by us car carrying the torch on. And so my
main job, honestly, guys, is like to not get in
the way. Yeah, that's my main job. I'm going to
bring my flavor, I'm going to bring the setting of
(20:24):
the container. I'm gonna I'm really good at asking questions.
So I'm gonna bring that socratic method to the table,
but and then I'm just gonna get the hell out
of the way. I love that.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yeah, all your thoughts on that.
Speaker 8 (20:35):
Trust Honestly, it's a it's an affirmation and confirmation that
I'm on the right path. Yeah, that's really it. You know,
I've done a lot of stuff in life. I've been
privileged to do a lot of really cool things a
lot of cool people. And when we had the conversation,
he asked me if I would be open to running
a group. I mean it was it was literally like check,
(20:57):
this is why I'm here. So for me, man, it's
just it solidifies my role in life and everything I've
learned up to this point has gotten me here.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
Yeah, this is really cool.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Yeah, I love that. Sigh your thoughts.
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Yeah, I'm I was just honored, Like and Jimmy and
I spoke about it. I just I felt very honored
that he thought of me like that. So yeah, other
than that said, it's an honor for me to do it.
(21:30):
I think I've been the reason I am who I
am today is it was all forged in fire, Like
there's there's it's all from making it through difficult things
and difficult times and men we go through that alone,
and so what was a big deal because I could
(21:52):
go through that with other people and it made a
big difference for me. I think Jimmy cen that growth
and I just want to honor the container that he's
created because it did that for me. And like Dan said,
get out of the way. Just let these guys experience
this for themselves. Exactly help themselves through this fire, because
everybody's going through it.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, that's what it's for. Here's real quick.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
Here's the humbling part, Nick, is if you wouldn't have
made those decisions in the fire that you did, you
wouldn't have had this opportunity.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
That's the coolest shit I think is like everything you
did to choose correctly, Well, we make mistakes, of course,
but you know, the choices you made to lead you
up to this point is very humbling to think of
it that way in retrospect.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
So yeah, agreed, agreed.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
One of the things Connor Delane said this on this podcast,
and it's really resonated with me. He always said, he
said that I can't attribute everything that's happened in the
last two years to what, But I can't imagine what
it would be like without it. And that's exactly what
you're talking about. Yeah, setting it up, getting the container
set up, and then kind of just being there and
(22:56):
being out of the way and just letting the journey
experience itself.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Right sid you have something on that you look like, Yeah, I.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
Mean, what is fantastic And I'm complimented Tommy a million
times on it.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
But you get out of it what you put in exactly.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
And I mean, I'll be very honest. In our group,
I've seen guys that have poured into the group and
they are you can't even recognize them from a year
ago when we started.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
And I've seen the opposite too, guys that you know,
they're paying an expensive fee, an expensive for you to
for it, and then they're not getting the same out
of it. And there's no judgment attached to me saying that.
But this really is a space where we come to
do work, where we come to be better, and it's
(23:42):
ultimately to experience this life better. I mean, when none
of us are going to find peace and calmon happiness
when everything's easy, we're going to find it, or we're
going through stuff, and frankly, the age from you know,
maybe upper twenties to mid forties fifties, that there's a
lot of different struggles that we go through in that time.
(24:05):
That's this group is meant for it for people to
come pour into it and get everything they can out
of it during this hard You know.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
It's cool too because you I don't know if you guys,
you probably have this, but it always happens when usually
when I'm going through something, somebody will randomly reach out
just to check in, you know, like this week has
been relatively tough, and one of guys from Drew five, Yeah,
Grew five reached out like, hey man, thanks for doing
what you did yesterday.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
I really appreciate you pouring into us. I'm like, you
have no idea. Wasn't it forty five minute mark?
Speaker 8 (24:44):
I love you two guys, But no, dude, it was
like it was at the perfect moment. I was like,
oh my god, dude, I needed to hear that.
Speaker 7 (24:51):
And you're your points. I like, we we we love
to suffer in silence as men. Got to hold that
stuff in. I'll put it down here.
Speaker 8 (24:58):
But when you have other dudes just only checking on you,
like it's a beautiful thing, you know. I shared with
the guy last night at the event who When I
first met him, he was like I introduced myself. He's like, hey,
I'm so and so, so what do you do? And
I looked at him, was like what do I do?
And I kind of I didn't mean to, but I
probably sound like a dick, we I said. I was like,
what do you mean what I do? Like do you
(25:19):
mean like what? Because it's such a suit, but that's
what we do, you know, as a man, especially like hey,
so what do you do?
Speaker 7 (25:24):
How do you who's your team? I don't care.
Speaker 8 (25:27):
But it's just such a beautiful thing that we get
so much deeper than that. It's not all about like
you know, I don't want people that darn and want
to hear this and be like it is it just
all touchy feeling.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
No.
Speaker 8 (25:37):
But I've said I Love you to more grown men
in the last two years than I have probably my
adult life. And I guarantee you in a weekend we
say I love you and get more hugs in a
forty eight to seventy two hour period most grown men
do in their entire life.
Speaker 7 (25:52):
And that's the beauty I.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
Was a phone call last night with the prospective guy.
I've only I've never I've only met him once and
I've i've had never had more than like two three
comas with him. But I was telling them I was
pour my heart out about what to him last night.
At the end of the conversation, he said, I love you.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
I was like, I don't even know, Scott.
Speaker 7 (26:07):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
But it was cool because and he explained why.
Speaker 5 (26:10):
He's like, listen, I learned long ago he had a
mentor that he lost. He was like twenty six years
old when he died. And he's like, I just learned
to if I feel it, I say it now.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I just don't hold back. It's really cool.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm not sure that it was cool.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Yeah, that's Awesome's let's let's ask this question because you know.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
We talk about the leadership groups on this podcast a lot.
Speaker 4 (26:33):
Why you know, we want guys from the tribe to
be in the tribe, be a part of it, pour
yourself into it. Just like say said, you're going to
get what you give, right, There's a lot of guys
who have been in the tribe for a long time
who get so much out of this group.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
They don't necessarily need to be in a leadership group.
But let's ask the question, why go from the tribe
to the leadership group? What makes that different and what
makes that difference for you guys.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
What is your guys' goal in that and make that
experience its own different thing from the tribe.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Dan, we'll have you go first. Yeah, the tribe is cool.
Speaker 5 (27:05):
The tribe's a thing in and of itself that shouldn't
be seen as because I think there's a mistake we
can make, like, well, that's like a training ground. Then
you go to leadership, that's not it. So it's a
thing in and of itself. It's perfect for.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
What it is. If you feel pulled, if you feel
called to have a more intensive experience.
Speaker 5 (27:23):
Yeah, that's what I would say the leadership group's about.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
And it's called leadership group for a reason.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
If you feel called to be a leader, or if
you're already leading in your life and you want to
just level up as a leader, that's what it's for. Yeah,
So if you're looking for a more intensive experience, more
leadership ability, and it's not just about leading other people,
it's mostly about leading yourself. Okay, let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
And if you're.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
Looking for a greater investment in all ways in yourself
that you're going to be putting out there to then
get back again. It blows my mind why people would
invest in without like putting their all into it. Yeah,
I think the leadership group's right for you. There's also
going to be I mentioned this, but there's like this
(28:09):
underlying element to it, where there's this this poll in
your life and I think it's just a convergence of
events that have happened to you where you're either at a.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
Low or you're at a high.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
There's some kind of extreme maybe that's happening in your
life right now to somebody that's listening, and you're like,
well what do I do with this? Where can I
go from here? Yeah, it's a new horizon that you're
looking for, and that's that's good. Airship group would serve
you very well.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 8 (28:34):
Well, I'll try to think of fun analogy. Nodada came
Tom's anchorman when he's logged in the last case of Emotion.
Speaker 7 (28:43):
I don't know why it comes up, but is what
happened perfect? Yeah? Right, I mean it kind of is though.
If you think about it.
Speaker 8 (28:52):
So the tribe is a beautiful it's a beautiful entry
point to really start learning about self development. And you
get to hear other like minded man. You get to
hear great speakers. And then if you really want the
immersive experience, it literally is it's like you're standing behind
this class wall, but I can't touch you. I can't really,
I can't physically put my hands on you. I can
see you, I can hear you. But then as soon
as the call is done, it's like this veil comes
(29:13):
up and it's black again until next Tuesday at one pm.
Speaker 7 (29:16):
The senter time.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
Whereas the leadership group allows you the opportunity to immerse yourself,
literally immerse yourself into the culture on a regular basis,
not just with calls, but with the accountabilities and in
the in the at the Lootis weekends. You guys know
this man like, that's where the magic happens. You know,
the growth happens, the brotherhood happens, the friendships everything, and
when you get to be in a room with forty
(29:40):
nine other grown men that are again you because we
can all put on a facade behind a zoom screen,
but when we're face to face one on one and
you really want to elicit change your life, but you're
scared as hell, don't know how to do it, but
you've got a wall of warriors behind you.
Speaker 7 (29:56):
That's what the Leadership Group is about.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Ye I love that.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Yeah, I come from an athletic background as a football player.
I'd been on teams the majority of my life. That's
what the Leadership Group is to me. Is I would
call the lotises like a game, right, But.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, the tribe's great.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
You're gonna learn great things and like most said, you're
gonna get the calls, all the local stuff, and it's
a fantastic network. It's better than anything out there, flat
out sure. When you join the Leadership Group, you're on
a team with those guys, and it's just like going
to practice, going to battle with teammates. Iron sharpens iron,
(30:41):
get a back to the mirror thing. You have all
these guys holding up a mirror. This is who this is,
who Sai is. We know the authentic, vulnerable version of Si,
and he looks like this. And now I have a
standard of living that these guys know. And so when
I go home to my family, when I go to work,
when I go out in the world. This is the standard.
(31:03):
It's what we created on these lunases. That's what I
created with these teammates. So I think that's the difference.
I think the tribe is amazing. I think you can
have a ton of growth from the tribe. But if
you want to step that growth up and have tons
of accountability, tons of mirrors and a team that's supporting
you through that, that's where the leadership group is necessary.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
And I'll tell you this and you guys know this too.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
Man, if you're in a relationship, man, the amount of
you know, girlfriends, wives that we've heard that I know
I've heard like this is save my husband and change
our marriage for the better. Yeah, you're a different he's
a different human because of what Yep, you know.
Speaker 7 (31:38):
And that's the thing.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
It's like, it's just you can't It's it's almost indescribable.
You know, Like if you you could imagine when you
see a group of your best friends every three months
and everybody's.
Speaker 7 (31:50):
So excited to see you.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
You know, it's like that that camp field when you're
a kid, you see your boys want a summer or
something like that. Imagine that as a grown man every
three months.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Yeah, I actually want to talk about that.
Speaker 5 (31:59):
It's a different level of growth, like I think is
what the theme is here to get into the leadership group.
But I thought at first maybe the three months was
like not enough for whatever. But it's the perfect amount
of time. It's like perfect it is. It really is
like leading up to it, there's all this excitement after it,
there's a tale and then there's a muddy metal where
you're like having to integrate and figure things out on
your own little bit, and then you come back up
(32:19):
to it again and it's it's beautiful and there's more
work that's done in those in those three days at
the loutises. Then then I.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Don't know what to compare it to. It's just more
work than I expected. It's more work than some people
doing their entire life.
Speaker 6 (32:32):
So correct, every single one changes my life in some way. Yeah,
you leave every single one with a massive download. That's
like okay, that's that's the next mark happening.
Speaker 8 (32:42):
I mean again, I've been too everyone with three groups now.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Literally everyone, Yeah, you're about to go to this.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
This one's special, that's the thing.
Speaker 8 (32:57):
Man, Like this it never gets old because it's your
beautiful process.
Speaker 7 (33:01):
Like every weekend, like I know what's going to happen.
Speaker 8 (33:04):
I do, and it's still amazing. It's like, you know,
I know, I know what, I know what the gift
is on the tree, but I'm still so excited to
open it and lose.
Speaker 7 (33:13):
It's a different color graft. It's a little bit different
and with the loss.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
We talked about the container that Jimmy creates, but honestly,
what it is is it's a container that is so
safe that you can take a masculine man that has all.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
These shields, that has worries about his.
Speaker 6 (33:29):
Reputation and looking dumb, and insecurities about income or whatever.
It could be like the man. We come in with
thousands of different things, but the container is so safe
that you feel okay to let go of all that
for a second and lean into you know, your feelings
and things that as masculine men we kind of suppress
(33:49):
them push away, and then you have a team of
guys supporting you and doing it like that's why every
single time you leave, it's like, man, I needed that exactly.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
It's It's changed my life, It's changed all of your
guys' life.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
It's changed everyone's life. Who's been a part of it.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
Right, I joined the tribe, it would summer Fest two
years ago, So it's almost two years basically to the
day that I joined the tribe and I went into
it and I said, I'm just going to experience this.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
I'm gonna dive in one hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (34:17):
I don't think I've done a lot of things one
hundred percent my entire life, but to your point, say,
I'm going to pour myself into this. Right, that breath
work session that Summerfest changed my life.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
The Olympics was so.
Speaker 4 (34:27):
Much fun, Like everything that was just a part of
it was just so much fun. I was like, I
need more of this, just get this injected into my veins,
Like I need more of this. I sign up for
the leadership group like the next day after Summer Fest.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
So what I'm saying here is exactly good job.
Speaker 4 (34:42):
What I'm saying here is pour your art into this,
and if it's the right thing for you to do,
take advantage of it.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Join the leadership groups. You guys.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
It's very special to see how this has evolved and
to see more people being able to take over responsibilities
like the leadership groups. And these are three guys right
here in front of me, who are incredible human beings,
incredible men who can lead groups like this incredibly And
I'm super excited to see how that goes for you guys.
Hopefully you'll recommend people to come on the WA podcast
when you guys have your own groups, that would be
(35:12):
that would be a huge of course, exactly, thank you
guys for doing this that you guys are coming on
the podcast. In true what podcast fashion, one of the
things that we do is we give a shout out
at the end of every podcast to one of the
brothers in the group.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
You guys got someone in mine?
Speaker 5 (35:28):
Yeah, a lot of people in mind, man, just one,
just one that's so tough. But I'll pick Alec from
l G five. Alex the young Buck reminds me of myself.
He's got some quirks like I did and do, and uh,
he's just a good He's just a good guy. He
wants to do the right thing always. He's always looking
(35:48):
to level up while dealing with his like like all
of us, have his.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
Distortions, his his challenges.
Speaker 5 (35:55):
Yeah, he's got a lot going for him and but
he he's super super humble. So I just love the guy.
I just want to give him shout out.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
Love that mouth Dallas all Phil, my boy, he stole mine.
Speaker 8 (36:11):
Yeah, dude, Dallas, Like you know this nick like watching
him grow over the last couple of years. Like you
see Dallas and you see all the things he does.
Like the dude just he just tied himself to his
wingsuit on the top of his corvette and drove it
across the salt flats at one hundred and thirty miles
an hour. Yep, to be the first person ever to
wing suit over his corvette.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
Oh wow, Yeah, how did he stop?
Speaker 7 (36:32):
How did I mean? He just kind of comes down.
I guess I asked that question.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
He figures it out.
Speaker 7 (36:37):
Yeah, he just figures it out.
Speaker 8 (36:38):
But you you have this guy who does all this
crazy stuff but also is intimidated to speak to people.
Speaker 7 (36:43):
Yeah, and now he's putting himself out there.
Speaker 8 (36:45):
He's he actually you know he led the tribe call
and just dude, watching his growth and that guy has
such a huge heart that is now.
Speaker 7 (36:53):
He is seeing it.
Speaker 8 (36:54):
He's seeing his potential as a leader, and it's just
a beautiful thing to watch.
Speaker 7 (36:58):
It's like watching this flower blossom. It's so cool. Love
him so much.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Way before, so I goes all because I was going
to say doll like Dallas was the first person game
in my mind too, because it's seeing him. The leadership
groups are cool because we do all these crazy stuff.
We jump off cliffs, we do hockhole locks, and it's
like I see Dallas as not having fear and just
going into it with everything and he wants to experience life.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
And to see him go from that where it's just
like this unrestricted.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
Badass that he still is but now wants to do
so more as a part of the group is so
cool to see as a development.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
So yeah, huge shout at the Dallas side.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
Who you got My buddy Nick Johnson came to mind.
Nick sa do you guys got to have on this podcast?
His story is incredible. I tell him every time I
see him, you got to write a book. Man can
inspire the whole world. But yeah, man, Nick has made
like he's one of those guys that if you were
to look at him now versus a year ago, he's
(37:53):
just a completely different dude. Yeah, he's got a new
light about him. He seems happy. So love you Nick,
Love that good guy.
