This is the unseen and uncomfortable work required to fundamentally shift who you are at your core.Anthony shares why mindset alone is not enough, how identity dictates execution, and why most people burn out chasing outcomes instead of becoming the person capable of holding them.This conversation explores why identity, not motivation, drives lasting change. It examines why most people quit when things get hard. It breaks down how dark work rewires discipline, confidence, and execution. It also explains why doing the work in silence prepares you to win in the light.If you are in a season of rebuilding, redefining, or reclaiming your purpose, this episode will meet you there.The Purpose Chasers | Align.

Some callings do not push you forward. They pull you home.In this episode of the Purpose Chasers Podcast, Mark sits down with master breathwork facilitator Sal Liberti to explore the journey that led him back to Peru — not to escape, but to serve.Sal shares how years of global travel, personal development training, and hands-on facilitation shaped his expertise in breathwork and why true mastery is built through presence, repetition, and responsibility rather than digital scale or spiritual trends.This conversation goes deep into what separates real facilitation from surface-level wellness, the power of hyperlocal community work, and why breathwork became the bridge between personal growth and embodied healing.If you are a creator, healer, or leader who feels the tension between expansion and alignment, this episode will challenge how you define success — and invite you to listen more closely to where your work is truly needed.What part of this conversation resonated with you most?Was it the moment Sal chose alignment over scale, or the idea of being called back rather than forward?The Purpose Chasers | Align.

Brady Watt joins the Purpose Chasers Podcast to share his remarkable journey from playing bass in New England punk bands at 14 to performing with icons of the music industry. Far from an overnight success, Brady spent years honing his craft and hustling in the New York City music scene. Over the years he has collaborated with legends like DJ Premier and Talib Kweli, and even toured with the rock band O.A.R. – proving that his rise is the result of passion and persistence, not luck.In this episode, Brady unpacks the origin of his viral “Bass & Bars” series – the YouTube sensation where he lays down bass grooves while top MCs drop verses. He reveals how an idea from his team (including DJ Premier and Ian Schwartzman) to promote an album. By calling in favors from a network of rapper friends built over years, Brady created a simple, powerful formula: live bass + elite bars. The result? The first few episodes went viral, and the series has now surpassed 70 installments. Brady explains that when something works, you double-down rather than switch up – one of his key lessons for sustained success.Brady also shares insights into his disciplined daily routine and mindset. He’s played bass literally every day since age 14, exemplifying the dedication behind his talent. He discusses integrating social media into his career while staying sane – from posting music content consistently to deleting the app off his phone to avoid the toxic scrolling habit. This unwavering discipline and focus have helped him prioritize creativity over distractions, ensuring his art always comes first.Most importantly, Brady offers wisdom on building authentic relationships and trusting your craft for the long haul. He credits much of his success to genuine networking and collaboration – leveraging years of friendships to create new opportunities (the “path of least resistance,” as he calls it). He emphasizes sticking to what you do best and continuing to refine it, rather than chasing quick fame or bending to trends. In fact, Brady’s “overnight” success story was over 15 years in the making. From jamming in basements to jamming onstage at Red Rocks with 50,000 fans, his journey highlights the power of perseverance, consistency, and staying true to your vision. The Purpose Chasers | Align.

It's no secret that Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs drives and motivates human behavior. Each stage is the motivating factor behind what you are doing and why you are doing it. When it comes to business, these needs only intensify when it comes to you and your employees.  Suppose you want to create a successful business where the success is mutually beneficial for everyone involved. In that case, you must start with the first level of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. After understanding your employee's needs, you also need to recognize and understand your needs as the entrepreneur and owner of the company.  Purpose Chasers, if you missed last week's episode where I broke down Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and how to fit the company's vision with your employee's driving factors and behaviors, I invite you to go back and listen to part one. Last week, I took a deep dive into recognizing and understanding your employees' needs, specifically how you can help them attain them and how you and your team will reap many benefits, including maximum production, happiness, and self-fulfillment. This week, I'm focusing on you, the entrepreneur. When creating a solid business, four main contributing factors keep any entrepreneur out of the lower levels of the Hierarchy of Needs: Cash Flow, Paying Yourself First, Chain of Command/Leadership, and Systems. While individuals commonly refer to a typical 9-5 job as a rat race, it's easy to fall into the entrepreneurial roller coaster trap. To get off the roller coaster for good, tune in as I help you dial in these four systems to create space for you to do what you do best. The Purpose Chasers | Align. Scale.

According to Abraham Maslow, all humans operate inside a Hierarchy of Needs. The Hierarchy of Needs includes Physiological Needs, Safety, Love and Belonging, Esteem, and Self-Actualization. These needs are what drive and motivate human behavior. When it comes to business, creating a vision for your employees to align themselves with is the key to recruiting and maintaining employees.  This week, I'm sharing a quick overview of the 5 Stages of the Hierarchy of Needs and how to fit the company's vision with your employees' driving factors and behaviors. Once you recognize and understand your employees' needs and how you can help them attain them, you and your team will reap many benefits, including maximum production, happiness, and self-fulfillment. The Purpose Chasers | Align.

This week, I'm sharing the lessons learned from terminating two individuals who are near and dear to me. Terminating employees who are like friends and family is one of the most challenging decisions I've ever had to make in business. But one of the most valuable takeaways is the importance of asking how YOU can do better. How can you be a better leader and team leader? What areas can you improve on to future-proof the relationships in and out of your company?  While entrepreneurs and team leaders don't regularly ask this, it's important to instill it into your team. When you own up to your mistakes and treat others equally, you create a strong accountability structure moving forward that everyone can pick up on. On the flip side, just as owning up to your mistakes is necessary for team success, so is praise and appreciation. Ensuring that you point out the achievements of your team members lets them know that you're investing in their growth and security.  Purpose Chasers, be sure to tune in next week as I share how Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs applies to business, specifically how it applies to your employees and team members.  Topics Discussed: The Number 1 question to ask yourself when facing adversity in your business Why owning your mistakes makes you a better leader Finding mutual ground and equality with your team Establishing a solid accountability structure Understanding the balance between praise and demand Ready to stop working for your business and have your business start working for you?

If you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or industry leader, then you’ve more than likely heard the phrase, “cashflow is king” or “cash is king.” Just because you make millions of dollars a year doesn’t mean you pocket millions of dollars. On paper, it may look like you’ve made tons of money per job, but in practice, you may be losing more money than you even realize. But what if I told you there’s a better strategy? One that can ensure you’re getting paid first while also paying your employees and paying off any surprises along the way. (i.e., renting equipment). This week, I’m sharing the formula that I’ve created within my own companies to ensure each business is in a healthy financial state. One of the biggest pieces of this formula is recognizing that your finances can’t be a guessing game. There has to be an effective mathematical equation put in place to predictably hit your margins every time. Once the needs of the customers are met, and the job is completed, then you can start paying yourself first. But only after accurately calculating every step of the process.  Topics Discussed: The TRUTH behind the notion “cashflow is king”  Gamifying the financial state of your business Why you should NEVER spend money that you don’t have in your pocket Expenses most business owners never consider until it’s time to pay the bill The Purpose Chasers | Align.

In 2020, I went inward. In a pursuit to tap into my deer calling, I paused Purpose Chasers®, put my head down, and went all in on doing the inner work. With the growing rise of Covid-19, I removed the pressure and noise from my life, both online and offline, to limit the negative space around me and fulfill what I had been called to do. In a span of fewer than two years, I’ve gained incredible insight, made strong relationships, scaled businesses, and, the best part, my second son was born.  This week marks the first solo episode I’ve recorded since July of 2020. Back in 2020, I shared my gratitude with the Purpose Chasers® community and all the lessons I learned along the way. Now, I’m going all in helping individuals grow and scale their companies with no end in sight. By putting the systems in place, growing the right team, and tracking your metrics, it has never been a better time to scale out of your company and take back your most precious asset: time.  The Purpose Chasers | Align.

What do your calls currently look like? What does your schedule currently look like? If you were to look over the last month of networking calls, Zoom meetups, and “get to know you” follow-ups, what would they look like to you? Truth is, many individuals are bound to their calendars and taking calls they don’t actually want to be taking. Lesson #14 of what I have learned in entrepreneurship over the years is this: Stop showing up for the “Takers”, your calendar opens us to serve the “Givers”! How many calls and meetups from your calendar actually moved the needle for you and your business? When was the last time you truly connected with someone else over the phone and not because they were trying to sell you something?  This lesson has been a tough one to learn and one that I have had to learn time after time. Don’t make the same mistakes I’ve made. Stop penciling every hour of every day to calls that don’t serve you or your business. Unless you truly value the relationships you have already cultivated online, it’s not worth it to show up for the “takers”.
