How often do we grip tightly to outcomes, attaching our happiness to specific results? In this episode, Grant Mitterlehner (a.k.a. Grant Mitt) shared the transformative wisdom on the power of detachment. True detachment isn’t about not caring. It’s about releasing the rigid attachment to having things unfold in only one way. What I found most touching was Grant’s perspective on family influence. His parents instilled in him unwavering positivity and self-belief. While many parents project their fears onto children, his encouraged possibilities. This conversation reminded me that adversity isn’t punishment — it’s preparation. When moving from point A to B, our weaknesses and insecurities will be exposed, pulling us toward growth.  Connect with: Listen to "The Grant Mitt Podcast" on all your favorite platforms!

We all carry moments that shape us sometimes from people we barely know. In this episode, I sat with Douglas James, a former Marine turned Inc. 5000 CEO, who shared a story that stopped me in my tracks. At 21, he witnessed an elderly woman die alone in a hospital ward with no family, no flowers, just him. Her final smile and words, “I lived a long, hard life,” became his lighthouse. Most of us drift through life assuming time is endless until it isn’t. His story cuts through that illusion with a fierce, loving clarity. He’s built a life as a dad, husband, and leader around one truth: you don’t want to die alone. That’s not morbid; it’s a call to connection, to living with integrity now. 📱Connect with Douglas James: Website: https://bit.ly/41L2qYq YouTube: https://bit.ly/41ZuzLt Instagram: https://bit.ly/4hipfby Facebook: https://bit.ly/4iG79Bt TikTok: https://bit.ly/4iEDqbX X.com: https://bit.ly/4ii2Qwi LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4kTdSKj ⏰Timestamps:  00:00 ​Intro of Show and Guest 1:57 - Douglas shares his deepest fear 3:19 - The moment that reshaped his life 8:17 - Douglas’s lesson in love and isolation 10:17 - Universal journey of death 11:31 - Douglas opens up about his traumatic upbringing 18:48 - The woman’s gift of wisdom 23:13 - Making peace with his past 29:56 - The moment he forgave his father 31:48 - Douglas unpacks the mindset shift 44:48 - Looking ahead and pulling out a fresh sheet of paper 46:35 - Quote from Virginia Satir 📕Meg Tuohey is a renown expert in relationships, leadership and personal growth.
