"Do Business. Do Life." is a weekly podcast dedicated to helping the independent financial advisor create unlimited growth and freedom in their business AND life.

Having been a coach for the top 1% of independent financial advisors for 15+ years, Brad Johnson has seen far too many leaders in financial services sacrifice their marriages, health, relationships, and everything else that matters to walk across an industry stage recognizing their "success." That model is broken, and Brad's on a mission to fix it.

Join Brad as he distills the best advice from top thought leaders and applies it to the world of independent financial advising. Get actionable tips/tactics on sales, marketing, entrepreneurship, business growth, lead generation, hiring, training, team building, company culture, core values, work/life integration, family, relationships, and more!

"Do Business. Do Life." is way more than just another podcast for financial advisors. It's an experience. It's a community. And more than anything, it's a movement. #DBDL

  • 135: Garrett Gunderson - Comedy, Rockefellers, and Tax Secrets Used by the Ultra-Wealthy
    Sep 24 2025
    Garrett Gunderson has worn a lot of hats—New York Times bestselling author, financial educator, entrepreneur, and even stand-up comedian. And in this episode, he connects the dots between all of them to give advisors fresh tools for both business and life.We explore what advisors can borrow from stand-up comedy to level up their presentations, how the Rockefellers built a system to preserve wealth while the Vanderbilts lost theirs, and the advanced tax strategies that capture the attention of entrepreneurs and high-net-worth clients.3 of the biggest insights from Garrett …#1.) How Comedy Translates Into More Engaging PresentationsAdvisors face the same challenge as comedians: keeping an audience engaged. Garrett explains why presence matters more than polish, how to handle disruptions with confidence, and why the best connection often comes from the unplanned moments.#2.) The Rockefeller Method in ActionTwo wealthy families took very different paths: the Rockefellers built a system that preserved wealth for seven generations, while the Vanderbilts lost theirs in just three. Garrett unpacks the specific tools—like trusts, family constitutions, and insurance—that made the difference.#3.) The Tax Plays That Make Affluent Clients Lean InEntrepreneurs and high-net-worth families don’t want surface-level advice—they want strategies they’ve never heard before. Garrett shares advanced ideas like reclassification of income, overlooked deductions, and even how donating art can unlock surprising tax advantages.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/135FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: Get a free digital copy of Garrett's book, "What Would the Rockefellers Do?

  • 134: Marisa Messana - How Advisors Can Build Trust & Win Clients on the Golf Course
    Sep 17 2025
    If you’re an advisor who loves golf, here’s the truth: the game teaches more about winning clients and building lasting trust than most people ever realize.That’s exactly what I dive into with today’s guest, Marisa Messana. She went from leading Clemson’s women’s golf team to the national championship, to competing as a professional golfer, to now coaching Fortune 100 companies, investment firms, and business owners.Through her work, Marisa helps in two ways:First, through her High Performance Training, where she equips people to perform like “corporate athletes.” This is the work that helps advisors shift from solopreneur to CEO, lead with more clarity, and create the space they need to actually grow.Second, with her Golf Experiences, she shows how to turn a round of golf into a trust-building, referral-generating opportunity. She blends fun on the course with growth-focused conversations off the course, creating the kind of experiences clients never forget.In this episode, Marisa shares how golf becomes more than a pastime, it’s one of the best ways for advisors to build trust, win clients, and grow their business.4 of the biggest insights from Marisa Messana…1.) Winning On Paper, Falling Apart InsideAt Clemson, Marisa hit the pinnacle of success—leading her team to nationals and winning the Elite 90 Award. But behind the accolades, she was overwhelmed, burned out, and holding back tears. Her story exposes the danger of chasing external success without the systems and self-awareness to sustain it.2.) Self-Awareness Is What Separates Amateurs From ProsIn golf, pros track every stat after a round to find patterns and improve. Marisa realized she wasn’t doing the same for her life. That’s when she built her “mental gym,” a process of auditing habits, energy, and emotions. By tracking patterns and adjusting, she turned awareness into action—and that’s what creates real, repeatable growth.3.) New Game, New Rules: Solopreneur to CEOMost advisors start as solopreneurs, where success depends on sheer hustle. But scaling a firm requires a different identity: leader, coach, CEO. Marisa shares how this shift mirrors her journey from athlete to business builder—and why so many advisors get stuck when they keep playing the old game by the old rules.4.) How to Host Golf Events That Drive ReferralsGolf is more than just a pastime for advisors—it’s a powerful business tool. Marisa breaks down how to design unforgettable golf experiences that combine fun on the course with meaningful, growth-oriented discussions. By pairing the “golf component” (18 holes, a clinic, or even a simple range session) with a “growth component” (roundtable conversations, workshops, or keynotes), advisors can break down barriers, connect as equals, and build deep trust with prospects & clients.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/134FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWMarisa is offering a FREE 1:1 coaching call to the first 3 listeners who reach out with a specific business challenge they want to solve.Text “134” to 785-800-3235 and we’ll share the details with the qualifiers.

  • 133: Tim Grover - Mental Mastery: Lessons from Training Michael Jordan & Kobe Bryant
    Sep 10 2025
    Michael Jordan. Kobe Bryant. Two of the greatest to ever play the game.But what set them apart wasn’t just physical talent, it was the mental game. The mindset that pushes past pain, silences doubt, and wins long after the body wants to quit. They had an obsession to improve, to compete, and to dominate at the highest level. Where exactly does that come from?Well, one guy who had a lot to do with it is Tim Grover — the world-class performance coach who trained Jordan, Kobe, and a long list of other legends.And here’s why this matters to you as a financial advisor: the mindset that creates champions on the court is the same mindset that creates champions in business. Effort and skill will only take you so far. To break through to that next level, you’ve got to master your mental game.Today, Tim joins the podcast to share some incredible stories from his days training with Jordan and Kobe — and more importantly, how you can take their winning mindset and apply it to your own life and business to go from good, to great, to mastery. 5 of the biggest insights from Tim Grover…#1.) The Hidden Power of Brutal Self-HonestyKobe Bryant kept a private notebook of self-critiques—every weakness, every flaw, every mistake. The willingness to confront hard truths gave him the mental edge that separates legends from everyone else.#2.) How Michael Jordan Chose His TrainerTim’s career changed forever when Michael Jordan gave him a shot. The story of how he landed MJ—and kept him as a client for 15 years—shows what it really takes to earn the trust of the best.#3.) Why Mastery Requires Constant EvolutionGoing from good to great isn’t the finish line. The greats keep deleting old habits, adding new skills, and reinventing themselves in pursuit of mastery.#4.) From ‘I’ to ‘We’: The Real Leadership ShiftJordan and Kobe both had to learn that championships aren’t won by a single star—they’re won when leaders elevate the entire team to play at their level.#5.) Your Most Valuable Commodity: HeartbeatsTim says the true measure of wealth isn’t money, it’s how you spend your finite heartbeats. Once they’re gone, they’re gone—so where you invest them matters more than anything.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/133FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: Get copies of Tim’s book, "Relentless" OR "Winning" [while supplies last]To get access to today's free gift AND become a DBDL Insider with VIP access to future resources and exclusive content, text "133" to 785-800-3235. *Message and data rates may apply.
