  • The Price You Paid Made You Who You Are - Bob Donnell

    The Price You Paid Made You Who You Are - Bob Donnell
    Oct 16 2026
    Join Coach Dan Gordon as he sits down with Bob Donnell, founder of Everything Next Level and a longtime student of human behavior. Bob shares how devastating loss, great mentors, and decades of studying people shaped his belief that the price you pay in life can become an investment in who you become. They explore better questions, deeper connections, resilience, strategic action, and what it takes to align your behavior with the results you actually want.

    Five Badass Q&As
    Q1: What first sparked your interest in human behavior?
    A1: As a teenager, Bob was told that if he learned human behavior, he could apply that understanding to any product, service, or industry. That idea shaped the direction of his life and work.
    Q2: Why are better questions so important?
    A2: Bob believes the quality of your connection depends on the quality of the questions you ask. Better questions reveal how people think, what they value, and whether they are truly aligned with you.
    Q3: How did Bob keep moving forward after devastating personal loss?
    A3: Bob developed a simple three-step process: acknowledge what you feel, put a time limit on staying in that state, and then turn your attention toward doing something positive for someone else.
    Q4: Why do people struggle to align their behavior with the results they want?
    A4: Bob says people often are not specific enough about what they actually want. When the desired result is unclear, it becomes difficult to choose the behaviors that will create it.
    Q5: What is the mission behind Everything Next Level?
    A5: Bob wants to impart vision and inspire strategic action by helping people align their behavior with the results they want to create.

    Five Badass Quotes
    1. “Whatever becomes acceptable becomes inevitable.” — Bob Donnell
    2. “Every next level demands a different you.” — Bob Donnell
    3. “You have to be more resourceful than your resources.” — Bob Donnell
    4. “It’s better to learn how to think than what to think.” — Bob Donnell
    5. “Everything we’ve ever been through, good or bad, is the price we’ve paid to be who we are today.” — Bob Donnell

    Five Badass Takeaways
    1. Turn Pain Into Purpose: What you have lived through can become an investment in who you become and how you serve others.
    2. Ask Better Questions: Strong questions create stronger relationships, better sales conversations, and deeper understanding.
    3. Get Specific About What You Want: Clear outcomes make it easier to align your behavior with the results you want.
    4. Learn From Everyone: Mentors, peers, clients, and difficult experiences can all teach you something valuable.
    5. Take Strategic Action: Vision matters, but results come when your behavior consistently supports that vision.

  • Tobacco Heir Uses Family Name to End Smoking - Patrick Reynolds

    Tobacco Heir Uses Family Name to End Smoking - Patrick Reynolds
    Sep 18 2026
    Join Coach Dan Gordon as he interviews Patrick Reynolds, a unique guest who transformed his family's dark legacy into a mission to save lives. As a member of the RJ Reynolds family, Patrick faced the harsh reality of a business responsible for millions of deaths. Instead of hiding from his past, he chose to stand against the tobacco industry. Patrick, now the Executive Director of Tobacco Free Earth, shares his journey from witnessing his father’s death due to smoking to becoming a prominent advocate for tobacco control. Learn how Patrick’s passion and resilience led to significant policy changes and a decline in smoking rates, and hear about his heartfelt efforts to help those affected by tobacco addiction. Don’t miss this inspiring and courageous story of redemption and advocacy.

    Five Badass Q&As
    Q1: What was your first memory of recognizing that your family name was part of a dark history?
    A1: My first real awakening was seeing my father lying down, gasping for breath, saying he had asthma. When I asked if it was related to his smoking, he denied it, even as he smoked a cigarette.
    Q2: When you started your advocacy, did you face any accusations of being insincere or seeking publicity?
    A2: I was often accused of seeking publicity because I was an actor. My response was always that my father died from smoking, and that’s why I care deeply about this issue.
    Q3: What motivated you to testify before Congress against the tobacco industry?
    A3: Initially, I was hesitant, but the more I learned about the tobacco industry, the angrier I became. The tipping point was realizing I could make a significant difference and honor my father’s memory.
    Q4: How did you handle the mixed reactions from the public and your family?
    A4: I focused on the mission. While some saw me as a hero and others as a traitor, I knew I was doing the right thing. I remained authentic and continued my advocacy despite the criticism.
    Q5: What has been the impact of your efforts in the fight against tobacco?
    A5: Our combined efforts in raising tobacco taxes, implementing smoking bans, and educating youth have led to a decline of over 50% in the smoking rate in America. This is a significant achievement in public health.

    Five Badass Quotes
    1. My only memories of my father are of him dying from smoking. That’s why I do this work.
    2. Raising the tobacco tax could save millions of lives.
    3. I chose to stand in the fire of judgment to make amends for my family’s past.
    4. If I can get a little altitude as an actor, think of how much more powerful I can take this message.
    5. Doing the right thing is always a lonely, uncertain exercise.

    Five Badass Takeaways
    1. Face your family’s dark past with courage and transparency.
    2. Use your platform, no matter how small, to advocate for change.
    3. Authenticity and passion can turn criticism into impactful action.
    4. Persistence in advocacy leads to significant public health improvements.
    5. Combining personal experience with public activism creates powerful change.
