✨Journeys of Empowerment✨ - Episode 38

From pulpit to platform, Daan’s call to speak..again..

What if the story you’ve been living quietly is the one that could set others free?

I had a fascinating conversation with my friend Daan Schmidt, founder of StoryBrand Nederland and Buzzlytics. His journey from pastor to purpose-driven entrepreneur shows how transformation doesn’t erase your past...it gives it new meaning!

In our convo, we explored the defining moments, inner pivots and unshakable values that continue to shape how Daan leads, lives and now prepares to speak from the stage again!

What We Explored:

👉🏾 From pastor to entrepreneur: rewriting identity without losing soul;

👉🏾 Transparency in business: building trust through “They Ask You Answer”;

👉🏾 Living with purpose: how near-death clarity fuels present-day action;

👉🏾 Generosity and excellence: leading with heart in business and life;

👉🏾 Speaking again: why he’s returning to the stage with a deeper story!

Nuggets of Empowerment:

🙌🏾 Excellence isn’t perfection: "it’s presence and intention”

🙌🏾 Trust starts by answering the questions people are afraid to ask;

🙌🏾 Your calling is often hidden in what nearly broke you!
