Change is hard, but it’s a necessary part of leadership and a true sign of The Whole Enchilada Spirit. In this minisode, Mitch Santala talks to financial wholesaler Brad about the clarity he’s gained since the COVID-19 events of 2020.
Gil Moegerle starts this minisode off with an introduction to The Whole Enchilada podcast and its vision of inspiring entrepreneurial leaders to embrace the changes of the current business environment.
Mitch Santala talks about a key attribute of successful leaders and how the attribute truly captures The Whole Enchilada spirit. Gil quotes Dr. James Dobson’s belief on the importance of mental health and Mitch agrees, because 2020 was not just a one-off event. We will always have change in our lives and careers. He further illustrates this concept by sharing a story about stopping in for a coffee at a local shop – and what he was able to leave behind.
Mitch then introduces financial wholesaler Brad, a 21-year industry veteran and leader. He’s been a client with ESA for more than 14 years and is a doer, versus just being a talker.
Erin Pruetz asks Brad about how the pandemic has changed his day-to-day career operations and how it’s stayed the same. Brad surprisingly says that the changes that 2020 brought were refreshing. Erin asks if it’s going to be hard for him to return to his usual schedule one day and Brad makes an analogy between his job and a professional athlete.
Mitch chimes in to talk about change bringing clarity. He discusses an encounter with a homeless man that opened Mitch’s eyes and brought him clarity he didn’t know he needed. Mitch mentions best-selling author Rick Warren and the three steps Rick believes every person should take to refresh their minds and gain clarity in their own lives.
Gil moves on to ask Brad about his relationship with his scheduler and Mitch makes a point about not ignoring the small tasks just because they’re small. Brad likes scheduling about as much as the baker in the 1980s Dunkin’ Doughnuts’ commercial, “Time to Make the Doughnuts,” likes getting up early to bake dozens of different types of pastries.
Finally, Brad talks about his favorite place to get Mexican food – Miguel’s in Tampa. He loves their chicken fajitas with sweet onions, sour cream, and queso and enjoys sharing the experience with his wife.
