{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"Why Presence Changes Everything","description":"In today’s episode, I sit down with entrepreneur, speaker, and bestselling author Stephen Scoggins to talk about identity, leadership, and the personal growth that comes from facing hard truths. We discuss why vulnerability creates stronger connections, the difference between authenticity and living from your essence, and how the words “I am” can reshape the way you approach success. Stephen shares lessons from homelessness, business growth, and life after a major exit, while I offer practical frameworks for building trust, evaluating relationships, managing time, and creating a life rooted in purpose rather than hustle. Together, we explore service, devotion, presence, and what it means to become who you’re meant to be.","author_name":"The Playbook","author_url":"https://audioboom.com/channels/4941502-the-playbook","provider_name":"Audioboom","provider_url":"https://audioboom.com","width":480,"height":95,"thumbnail_url":"https://audioboom.com/i/31362891/600x600/c","thumbnail_width":600,"thumbnail_height":600,"html":""}
