Turn Setbacks into Success w/ Adam Marburger

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, “Am I the problem?” Or perhaps you"ve felt that inner urge to redefine what success means for you, but didn’t know where to start. In this episode of The Dealer Playbook, I sit down with Adam Marburger—CEO at Ascent Dealer Services-Co founder at Dental Protection Group-Best Selling Author-Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt. He’s here to talk about something we all face but rarely admit: sometimes, we’re our own worst enemy. Adam’s journey from self-destruction to success is nothing short of a playbook for breaking through your own barriers. In this episode, Adam pulls back the curtain on what it took for him to stare in the mirror and say, “You’re the effing problem.” And trust me, it’s not the kind of conversation that ends there. This is about taking radical ownership, redefining success, and letting go of the toxic voices in our lives. This one’s raw, unfiltered, and straight from the heart. If you’re feeling stuck or just need a reminder that setbacks don’t define you, this is your episode. Thanks, Adam Marburger!
