April 2026: Frameworks for Starting Your Journey with Brian Stinson

Authenticity Matters is getting close to existing for 7 years, and in each episode I’ve asked every guest what authenticity means to them and what holds people back from being authentic. Overwhelmingly, fear holds people back. But also, figuring out an authentic path takes a lot of independent self-reflection, and often requires effort to change, stopping what no longer serves you and starting something that does.

As the show moves forward, I want to talk more on this show about frameworks, supports, and techniques to make this authenticity path feel more effortless. My guest this month is my Business partner, PEAK Fleet co-founder Brian Stinson, who I love for his structured approach to driving change; perfect wisdom and recommendations to help people with change.

We’ll discuss:

What an authenticity action plan looks like and how to start

How to talk about your authenticity journey with people that matter most to you

How to have constructive conversations about matters in the world in courageous, kind, and productive ways
