Podcast Summary
🎙️ Podcast Summary: “Change Breaks You. Transformation Builds You.”
In this deeply moving and inspiring episode of The Security Circle, Yolanda Hamblen sits down with Dr. Grant Van Ulbrich — a man who has turned adversity into action, fear into fuel, and personal change into a global framework for transformation.
From growing up in conservative Kansas and serving in the U.S. Navy, to finding himself homeless — not once, but twice — Grant’s story is one of extraordinary resilience and reinvention. He shares how every setback became a stepping stone, leading him to a 25-year career at sea and ultimately to founding SCARED So What, a model for managing personal and organizational change.
Grant and Yolanda explore what it truly means to transform rather than just change, the power of vulnerability in leadership, and why transactional leaders fail while transformational leaders thrive. Together, they challenge listeners to rethink resilience, embrace uncertainty, and find courage in their own chapters of transformation.
