Ep 429 Living Authentically with Brian Bogert

Living Authentically

 

In this episode of Richer Soul, we welcome Brian Bogert, a human behavior and performance coach, business strategist, and speaker. Brian’s journey is one of resilience, transformation, and intentionality. After a traumatic injury at age seven, he learned how to embrace pain to avoid suffering—a philosophy he now teaches to help others unlock their full potential.

 

Brian challenges the traditional norms of success, pushing individuals and leaders to connect with their authentic selves rather than simply chasing external achievements. His work is about building a life of sustainable growth, personal mastery, and deep fulfillment.

 

Key Takeaways:

1. Embrace Pain to Avoid Suffering. Brian believes that pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. By facing challenges head-on and learning from them, we can avoid prolonged suffering and grow stronger. His own experience of recovering from a traumatic injury taught him that leaning into discomfort can be transformational.
2. Identity Over Actions. Success isn’t just about what you do but who you are. Many people chase financial or career success but feel empty inside. Brian encourages people to focus on identity first, ensuring their external success aligns with their internal values and purpose.
3. Rewriting Your Money Story. Growing up, Brian’s relationship with money was shaped by his father’s experiences—avoiding financial discussions and feeling undeserving of wealth. These subconscious beliefs impacted his early financial decisions, but he learned to reframe his mindset around self-worth and value.
4. The Power of Intention and Self-Awareness. To create meaningful change, you must be intentional. Brian shares that self-awareness is the first step to transformation. Whether in personal relationships, business, or finances, being clear about why you do what you do can unlock greater fulfillment and success.

 

Money Learning:

Brian’s early experiences with money were shaped by contrast—earning his own money versus watching others have wealth given to them. He worked hard to save for his first car, while some of his peers had luxury vehicles bought for them. His father’s unspoken scarcity mindset led to moments where Brian was told to return money he earned because it was “too much.”

These experiences shaped his financial beliefs, creating a mix of hard work, self-worth challenges, and scarcity programming. Over time, Brian realized that earning money is not about taking from others but about delivering value—a key shift in perspective that allowed him to thrive financially and professionally.
