What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Meet Rhonda and Brian Swan, a couple who embody the spirit of living life on their own terms. In this engaging episode, Rhonda, the CEO of the Unstoppable Branding Agency, and her husband Brian, a former robotics engineer turned 'unstoppable surfer,' share their incredible journey from corporate America to building a multimillion-dollar brand while travelling the world.
They discuss the ups and downs of their path, including losing everything during the 2008 financial crisis and choosing to sell all their possessions to start anew. The Swans reveal how their resilience and determination helped them create a life that aligns with their values. Rhonda's decision to quit her corporate job was driven by her desire to be the primary influence in her daughter's life, refusing to put her in daycare.
This bold move set the stage for a life of adventure and entrepreneurship. Brian shares his experience of learning to live with an expiration date after witnessing his father's battle with AIDS, which instilled in him a sense of urgency to live fully. Their story is not just about financial success but about prioritising family, embracing fear, and finding balance. The Swans emphasise the importance of storytelling in branding, believing that authentic human connections are what truly matter.
With humour and heart, they inspire listeners to challenge the status quo and create their own path. Ready to rethink your approach to life and business? The Swans' story is a reminder that sometimes losing everything can lead to gaining so much more.
