But underneath it, something felt off.“I didn’t feel like I had a lot of purpose.”In this episode, Shane opens up about pressure, people pleasing, and the quiet weight of shame he carried for years. Through therapy, self-awareness, and showing up more honestly, he’s beginning to redefine what it means to lead and live.If you’ve ever felt like you had to hold it all together for everyone else, this conversation will hit home.Join the conversation inside BILD What Matters.Follow @shanecyrofficial on InstagramFollow Victoria:Website - https://victoriacluney.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/victoriacluney/Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/victoriacluney/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/victoriacluney/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoriacluney/BILD What Matters explores Business, Impact, and Life by Design.

Mark Johnson didn't start Johnson Construction with a playbook. He started with grit, poor health, no time for himself and his family....and eventually hit a wall. In this 2 part episode, Mark is joined by his wife and business partner, Josee. They share the honest story of how they moved from survival to stability, and what it cost them along the way.They get into the power of having a strong second-in-command, why trusting your team is harder than it sounds, and how standardizing your processes (even just dress codes and digital signatures) creates clarity that money alone can't buy.Josee brings her own perspective on leading from behind the scenes — and why empathy might be one of the most underrated leadership skills in any business.This is a real conversation about the unglamorous work that actually builds something lasting.🎙️ Subscribe to BILD What Matters and leave a review if this episode hit home. BILD What Matters explores Business, Impact, and Life by Design.

Katie Faloon‑Drew built a life that checked every box: degrees, marriage, kids, asafe government job, the house with the white picket fence. She didn’t realize she was drowning until she broke. After years of chasing “I’ll be happy when,” she hit a full mental breakdown that left her unable to function and terrified to ask for time off. Therapy, medication, and energy work pulled her out. She rebuilt slowly, learning that confidence isn’t a look; it’s a habit. Katie now coaches high achievers through habit change rooted in values, not shame. Then June hit. A virus, relentless output, and “good stress” sent her to the Heart Institute with what they first called a heart attack. The message landed: slow down or be forced down. Today, she teaches a new truth: your brain wants safety, your body keeps the score, and you can rewrite your patterns one small choice at a time.

Why start now? Because hiding hurts. After a two‑day healing retreat, I posted an 11‑minute video and pressed record on Episode 1. I’m done with fluff. I talk about the beach‑ball feelings I tried to hold down, the therapy that turned them into words, and the moment someone asked if I had “trauma” for walking away from an 80/20 white‑label deal. I chose autonomy. I chose values. I share my WILER code (wisdom from adversity, integrity over opportunity, lead with impact, extreme ownership, relentless execution) and set the tone for this show: depth over posturing. If you want leaders who can pull back the curtains, reveal the mess and how they still keep moving forward, you're home. Join the conversation inside BILD What Matters.Some key takeaways:How to name the shutdown: calm can be numb.Choose values when opportunity tests you.Build your own platform if autonomy matters.Why I use WILER to drive all hard calls.Own your role; expect the same from others.Execute relentlessly: press record, refine, repeat.0:00 Why I pressed record today02:10 When the beach balls popped up05:00 “I couldn’t pretend anymore”08:20 The WILLER code explained12:30 When everything fell apart (values vs deal)16:10 What this podcast will stand for18:40 How to leave a review and enter the drawBILD What Matters explores Business, Impact, and Life by Design.
