    From navigating burnout and career pressure to facing his daughter’s leukemia diagnosis and nearly losing his marriage, Brian shares the raw, real experiences that forced him to redefine leadership — starting with himself.

  • EP 208 - Why Modern Relationships Are Failing (And What to Do Instead)
    Apr 24 2026

    We’ve never been more connected… yet so many of us feel completely alone.

    In this powerful episode of the Finding Better Podcast, John Suzuki sits down with Keith Spurgin to explore one of the biggest paradoxes of our time — how technology is bringing us closer together while quietly pulling us apart.

    From social media to AI companions, this conversation dives deep into why real human connection is fading — and what we can do to reclaim it.

    Inside this conversation, you’ll learn:

    1. Why technology creates a false sense of connection 2. The concept of “pseudo community” and why it leaves us empty 3. How social media and AI can increase loneliness instead of solving it 4. Why relationships — not success — are what truly matter 5. The danger of constantly “restarting” relationships instead of growing them 6. How conflict, when handled right, actually deepens connection 7. Why the future of AI makes human relationships more important than ever

    💡 Key Takeaways:

    1. Life is relationships — everything else is just details 2. Real connection requires effort, discomfort, and sacrifice 3. Loneliness is rising despite unprecedented digital access 4. Conflict is not the problem — avoiding it is 5. Human connection is a skill, and it can be learned

  • EP 207 - AI Isn’t Replacing You… You’re Using It Wrong | From Fear to Freedom with Wes Towers
    Apr 15 2026

    What if the thing you fear the most right now… is actually the thing that could change your life forever?

    What if AI isn’t here to replace you… but to reveal who you really are?

    In this episode of the Finding Better Podcast, John Suzuki sits down with Wes Towers — founder of Uplift360 — who faced a moment most people never see coming:

    His business… his identity… his life… all shaken at once.

    Because here’s the truth: AI doesn’t just disrupt industries… it exposes them.

    And sometimes… it exposes you too.

    Just a few years ago, Wes was running a successful digital agency. But when AI entered the picture, everything changed.

    His industry was suddenly under threat. His company was labeled “uncertain”… even “worthless.” And at the same time — his personal life was falling apart.

    He went from building a business… to sleeping under his office desk.

    From stability… to complete uncertainty.

    But instead of running from AI — he made a decision most people avoid:

    He chose to understand it. He chose to adapt. He chose to rebuild.

    And what happened next… changed everything.

    This conversation isn’t just about artificial intelligence. It’s about resilience, identity, and what happens when life forces you to start over.

    Because in a world where AI is getting smarter every day… your humanity matters more than ever.

    Inside this conversation, you’ll learn: -Why AI is not your biggest threat — but your biggest opportunity -How to adapt when your entire industry is being disrupted -The real reason most businesses fail in the age of AI -How to use AI without losing your authenticity -Why trust and human connection are becoming more valuable than ever -How Wes rebuilt his business after hitting rock bottom -The shift from “doing more” to focusing on what actually matters -Why AI should enhance your life — not replace it

    💡 Key Takeaways: -AI will amplify who you are — not replace you -The businesses that win will be the most human -Your lowest moments can become your turning point -Adaptation is no longer optional — it’s survival -Connection will always outperform automation
