In this soul-stirring conversation, Dr. B welcomes JM Ryerson, founder of Let's Go Win and a seasoned entrepreneur who's built and sold three financial service companies. Their discussion cuts through superficial success metrics to reveal what truly matters.JM shares his remarkable journey from Montana basketball player to successful Florida-based business leader, highlighting pivotal moments that shaped his philosophy. When a knee injury ended his athletic career, he discovered personal development while traveling through Europe—a transition that forced him to redefine his identity beyond sports. Years later, after writing a book intended just for his sons, JM found himself launching a business dedicated to helping others achieve authentic success.The conversation tackles crucial topics rarely discussed in business circles: the power of vulnerability, especially for men taught that "boys don't cry"; the importance of self-care before attempting to serve others; and the liberation that comes from removing the masks we wear in daily life. JM's perspective challenges conventional wisdom about goal-setting, suggesting that alignment with one's authentic self matters more than arbitrary external metrics.Perhaps most powerfully, JM asserts that "no one can change your beliefs but you," offering a framework for self-assessment through his acronym SELF (Strength, Energy, Love, Freedom). This conversation isn't just about professional achievement—it's about becoming the person you need to be to live a fulfilling life on your own terms.Ready to take off your masks and discover what winning really means?
