A lot of people don’t fail because they want too much. They fail because they’re afraid to admit what they want at all.

In this episode, I’m joined by Kenny Ingersoll, entrepreneur and founder of Revolution Financial Management, to talk about something most people quietly struggle with: bottling up their wants and desires out of fear of judgment, failure, or looking foolish if things don’t work out.

We dig into why hiding your goals—even from yourself—creates frustration, stagnation, and resentment over time, and why switching focus can feel terrifying when other people are watching.

In this conversation, we talk about:

Why bottling your wants and desires slowly kills momentum

How fear of judgment keeps people stuck in paths they’ve outgrown

What really happens when you never allow yourself to change direction

The mindset shift that makes “dreaming big” practical instead of reckless

What responsibility for your results looks like in daily life—not just in theory

If you’ve ever felt torn between wanting more and wanting to stay safe, this episode will help you understand what that tension is costing you—and how to move forward without pretending you don’t care.

Real resilience isn’t motivational quotes or overnight success stories. It’s what you do when something stops working—and you decide to keep going anyway.

In this episode, I talk with my brother, Glenn Pearson, about building a career that can bend without breaking. From walking away from a desk job to creating a hands-on inspection business, Glenn shares how he’s navigated uncertainty, made hard pivots, and learned to be smarter with money and opportunity.

We discuss what resilience actually looks like in business, why taking action matters more than waiting for certainty, and how staying flexible can be the difference between getting stuck and moving forward.

If you’re in a season where things feel unstable, or if you’re wondering what your next move should be, this conversation offers clarity, perspective, and a realistic path forward.

Burnout isn’t a motivation problem, it’s a boundaries problem.

In this episode, I break down why most people struggle to reach their goals, protect their energy, and maintain healthy relationships, and how a lack of boundaries quietly destroys pretty much everything important to us.

We’ll talk about boundaries with work, family, and friends, why guilt shows up when you start setting them, and how learning to say no can actually strengthen your relationships instead of damaging them.

If you’re exhausted, resentful, or constantly sacrificing your goals for other people, this conversation will help you reset.
