Moments That Matter. Build core memories while you build your business. In this Impact Effect Podcast episode, host Jim Morris sits down with entrepreneur and family-first leader Brad Draper to talk about how to build your business and your life at the same time. This talk is about impact, not just income. It is about the small choices that stack into core memories and a company you are proud of.
What you will learn:
1. How to make every space and moment better than you found it, from your office to your home.
2. Why integration beats balance when you build your business and raise a family.
3. Simple ways to build core memories with your kids in 15 minutes, even on busy days.
4. A practical check-in script leaders use with their teams and friends, starting with one question, “Where’s your head?”
5. Three paths to deep connection that also grow your business, play together, serve together, or suffer through hard things together.
6. How to use AI as a tool to amplify your work without losing the human connection your brand needs.
7. What high performing founders do to protect family moments while they scale.
Why this matters:
If you only chase growth, you miss the moments that matter. If you only chase moments, the business stalls. This episode shows how to do both. Build core memories and build your business with clear priorities, honest conversations, and repeatable habits.
You will hear:
1. Stories of missed milestones and the decision to change course.
2. Real examples of leaders who left events to coach a game, then returned to the stage.
3. A simple daily lens to spot micro miracle moments and turn them into core memories.
4. A clean way to check on your strongest friends and teammates so no one carries the load alone.
