I joined Ken Joslin on Proximity for a conversation about the unseen side of success, what criticism teaches you, and why stillness matters for anyone building something that lasts.

Why this conversation matters

Ken and I talked about the side of success most people never see: the early years of THIRD DAY, a harsh headline the morning after a festival show in front of about 20,000 people, and what it takes to stop living for critics and build real loyalty instead.

We also got into Market Like a Rockstar and why I believe marketing should not end at the sale. Fans are built on relationships, trust, and delightful surprises. And we talked about stillness: limiting phone use, checking your motives, and treating work as vocational worship.

So I have a question for you

Who are you standing closest to, and what are they shaping in you?

If you want to bring that kind of honest conversation to your team, that is exactly what my keynotes, workshops, and leadership sessions are built for.

Originally aired on Proximity with Ken Joslin, October 14, 2026.
