Cut to Coach | Brandon Burns Part 1

I recently had the pleasure of diving deep into an enriching conversation with Brandon Burns, an elite athlete, viral influencer, and two-time Big 10 Championship-winning coach. Brandon shared his incredible journey from being repeatedly cut from his gymnastics team to becoming a celebrated coach for the same team. His story is a testament to resilience, dedication, and the power of authentic leadership. We explored the nuances of coaching, the importance of adapting communication styles to individual needs, and the parallels between athletic and business leadership. Brandon's insights on the significance of trust, commitment, and understanding individual motivations in coaching were particularly enlightening. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone aspiring to lead, coach, or simply make a significant impact in their field. #RickJordan #Podcast #Coaching We Meet: Brandon Burns, Keynote Speaker & High Performance Life and Business Strategist Episode References:  Connect: Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordan Connect with Brandon: http://www.iambburns.com/ Universal Rate & Review: https://lovethepodcast.com/allinwithrickjordan Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLIN About Brandon: Brandon Burns is an international keynote speaker, elite athlete, viral influencer with over 50 million views on social media, 2x B1G Ten Championship-Winning Coach; serial entrepreneur; and right-hand man to the world’s #1 motivational speaker - Dr. Eric Thomas.
