The suit fits, the numbers look great, and the applause is loud—so why does it still feel off inside? We sit down with leadership guide and speaker Chad Brignac to explore the uncomfortable gap between external performance and internal peace. Chad opens up about the tragedies that shattered his autopilot—losing his first wife and later becoming a full-time caregiver after his wife’s stroke—and how those moments exposed a “broken legacy” built on results over relationships.
What follows is a candid road map for men who lead at work but feel like strangers at home. Chad redefines emotional intelligence as clarity, not suppression: notice the trigger, pause, ask why, and deal with the roots—fear, pride, old vows—rather than the surface behaviour.
You’ll hear practical frameworks you can use today. Calibrate your people compass so success doesn’t come at the expense of relationships. Learn how blind spots show up like lane changes. If your legacy feels “off,” this conversation offers a way to rebuild from the inside out and measure success by inner peace, not just titles.
If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the reset, and leave a quick review to help others find these conversations. Your support helps us champion leadership with impact and integrity.
