Yesterday I ran my slowest ever IronMan race and I couldn’t be happier.

The course for the IronMan World Championships was tough. The swim was my first ever ocean swim in a race, my goggle fogged up and I had trouble timing my sighting with the waves so I was slower than I wanted to be.

I also accidentally neti-potted the Mediterranean. 0/10 - do not recommend (although my sinuses were clear getting on the bike!)

The bike course in Nice is widely considered to be the hardest in all of IronMan. Nearly 8,000 feet of elevation gain as you ride up into the Maritime Alps.

It was a challenge but it was also breathtakingly beautiful. It was like riding through a post card. Also, we rode the same route used in the Tour de France and when passing through mountain villages, the locals came out to cheer us on so now I know what it feels like to have people cheer you on yelling “allez allez allez” as you ride past just like they do for the tour riders.

And then we got to the run and my stomach decided to give me problems. But, I got to run (and walk) along the Promenade Des Anglais while thousands of people lined the streets cheering for us. I got to watch the sunset on the hills east of Nice. I got to speak with some of my fellow athletes, share stories and encourage each other to keep moving forward and I got to cross the finish line and be called an IronMan for the 6th time.

I am glad I took my time so that I could enjoy this once in a lifetime experience. The world championships are leaving Nice so this was literally the only chance I had to run this race.

As a wise young man once said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” And yesterday, I didn’t miss a thing.

Thanks Becky Langan for coming along on this crazy adventure.

10 years ago I was 36.

I smoked a pack a day. American spirits because they were better for you (at least that was my reasoning).

I had not done any sort of organized athletic activity since I was a senior in high school.

I’d had two surgeries on my left knee to remove cartilage and told by an orthopedic surgeon that I would never run again.

I still ate like a college student, albeit a wealthy one, and drank a ridiculous amount of Diet Coke.

I was overweight and out of shape and I was tired. Literally tired. And figuratively tired of being stuck in an endless cycle of self inflicted poor health.

Now I am 46. And I am sitting on a bench staring at the Mediterranean Sea from Nice in the south of France.

I have become a husband, a father and an athlete.

I am here to compete as an age group athlete in the IronMan world championships along with 2500 other men from around the world.

I am healthy. I am happy. I am proud and I am grateful.

Tomorrow we race through Nice.

Yogi Berra once said, “You can observe a lot just by watching.”

He obviously meant it as a joke but he wasn’t wrong. because your brain is wired with a filter called the Reticular Activating System (RAS) and it’s job is to decide what get’s remembered and what get’s ignored.

What gets through the RAS filter? Experiences that hit multiple senses. As National Geographic puts it, “The more sensory input you have, the stronger the memory trace.”

That’s why video is so powerful. It’s not just content. It’s sight, sound, and emotion colliding to make your message, and your brand, unforgettable.

Attention is scarce, and video is the best way to help your brand cut through, build trust, and create real connections.

That’s why video is the single most powerful tool businesses have at their disposal.

I’m gonna beat the hide off this drum...

Because leading with value should guide everything we do.

When we focus on delivering real value, we build trust, create lasting relationships, and stand out in the best way possible. Being the go-to person for your friends, expert in your field for colleagues or brand for your customers means you will show up with authenticity and purpose every time. Delivering value should always drive our decision making.

Lead with value, and the rest will follow.

If you treat your audience like just another transaction, and they’ll treat your brand like a disposable commodity.

Why? Because your audience isn’t a bunch of pockets full of cash. They’re human beings. With fears, frustrations, dreams, good days and bad ones. If they feel like you see them for who they are, not as numbers on a spreadsheet, but as people worth caring about, everything changes.

Trust grows. Loyalty builds. And suddenly, your marketing doesn’t feel like marketing anymore.
Humanize your brand—marketing that works starts with empathy.

So say it with your content. Say it with your service. Say it with your story.

Show people you see them. Not as leads. Not as data points. As human beings.

As Teddy Roosevelt once said, “no one cares how much you know until they know how much you care.”

So, care louder.

What’s sitting in your drafts right now?

That post you keep editing.
The video you haven’t uploaded.
The idea you keep “refining.”

I’ve been there more times than I can count. Telling myself I’m aiming for quality when really, I’m avoiding vulnerability. It’s easy to confuse polish with purpose. But every time I’ve waited for perfect, I’ve traded momentum for stagnation.

The content that lands with people is never the most rehearsed. It’s the stuff that feels real. The off-the-cuff take. The imperfect frame. The version where I just say the thing and trust it’s enough.

So here’s your invitation. Stop waiting. Post the draft. Share the message. Let people see you in motion, not just in hindsight.

Perfection is a delay tactic. Authenticity is a strategy.

A coupon code never made me feel seen.

But you know what did?

A couple years after buying a hat from Melin, it started showing some staining. I followed their care instructions exactly, but the stains didn’t budge. So I reached out, expecting a canned response or maybe a suggestion to try again.

Instead, they offered to replace the hat. Free of charge. No hassle. Just a brand making sure I had something that looked and fit exactly the way I wanted.

They didn’t just handle a support ticket. They reinforced a relationship. And the end result? I keep buying hats from Melin.

Because in business, the brands that last aren’t the ones that optimize for transactions. They’re the ones that make people feel like they matter.

So if your brand is busy counting clicks but forgetting humans, you’re missing the whole point.

But, there’s a better way to build. One where relationships come first, and trust drives everything else.

That’s the world Legendeering was written for so if that’s the kind of business you’re trying to build, you’re not alone. And you’re already heading in the right direction.

Nobody remembers that Apple’s first iPod had a 5GB hard drive.

But they do remember: “1,000 songs in your pocket.”

That line wasn’t just good marketing. It was masterful storytelling.

Apple didn’t lead with specs or stats. They gave people a story they could see themselves in.

It wasn’t about the tech. It was about the feeling of having your whole music library with you, anywhere you went.

They made the customer the hero of a simple, transformative moment.

Because people forget stats. They remember stories.

They remember what it felt like the first time they clicked that scroll wheel and heard their favorite song, alone on a bus, lost in their own soundtrack.

So if your brand is still leading with “industry-leading” numbers and jargon-packed metrics, ask yourself:

Is it sticky?
Is it human?
Or is it just a stat no one’s going to remember five minutes from now?

Stories win. Every time.
Tell one worth sharing.

Most brands position themselves as the hero.

But, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams didn’t build a cult following by making it about the ice cream.

They built it by making it about you, the customer, the community, the story you step into when you walk through the door to a scoop shop or open a pint.

Look at their Instagram. It’s not focused on the founder, Jeni Britton. It’s not a behind-the-scenes production tour. They regularly spotlight real people sharing how Jeni’s fits into their lives—day to day and for special occasions like family vacations.

The message is clear: this brand belongs to the community that supports it.

That’s the secret (hot fudge) sauce: Make your customer the hero.

Not just in your content, but in your culture. It’s not about your process or your passion. It’s about what your audience feels when they see themselves in your story.

You’re the guide. They’re the story.

Most brands try too hard to sound authentic.

The smart brands don’t try—they actually are.

Because people can smell the difference between “crafted transparency” and the real thing.

Relentless authenticity isn’t a tactit, it’s a discipline. A way of showing up every day without the mask, the polish, or the pitch.

It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being consistent. Being human.

And when you do that?

You build the kind of trust that lasts longer than any algorithm or ad campaign.

Relentless authenticity fosters unwavering trust.

Not because it’s trendy—because it’s true.
