I never liked talking to my barbers, but then I ended up at the new @Floyds99Barbershop in Maitland Florida. I used to sit down, get my haircut and leave without saying much.

Then, three years ago, a stylist told me she wasn’t comfortable doing the fade I wanted and moved me into someone else’s chair. I didn’t know it at the time, but the stranger standing behind that chair would eventually become one of my best friends.

In this episode, I talked to one of my best friends ( @shearbrilliance ) about why conversations with strangers matter, the “good bricks” people can add to our lives and how one unexpected interaction can turn into something much bigger. We also get into anxiety, brotherhood, business, faith and the importance of having people around you who will walk with you through difficult seasons.

**In this episode:**

→ Why I normally avoided talking to my barbers
→ The unexpected chair change that started our friendship
→ What we can learn from the strangers around us
→ The “good bricks” the right people add to our lives
→ Why we can’t allow anxiety to control our decisions
→ The importance of brotherhood during difficult seasons
→ How faith became part of our everyday conversations
