In this powerful and heartfelt episode, I sit down with Mike Brown—former Navy fighter pilot, founder of a wildly successful investment firm, and now a transformational coach helping entrepreneurs redefine wealth on their own terms.
Mike shares his deeply personal journey of achieving everything society says will make us happy—wealth, status, success—only to find himself asking, “Is this it?” From the disorienting silence after the deal closes to the pressure of figuring out what’s next, Mike opens up about the emotional reckoning, identity crisis, and eventual healing that came through creating space.
If you’ve ever wondered who you are without your business, or what a meaningful, joy-filled life looks like beyond the hustle, this one’s for you.
