The Ethical Evolution Podcast

Last time we caught up with Brian Bogert was in Episode 170 in October 2023. Brian is a heart surgeon without a blade. He does not start outside with what you need to DO, he starts inside with who you ARE. In a world that is disconnected, Brian is revolutionizing how organizations and entrepreneurs deeply connect with their authentic selves to achieve the highest levels of wealth in monetary riches, time, relationships, and health. At just 7 years old, Brian was faced with a traumatic injury that most of us can barely even imagine. He was run over by a truck and his left arm was severed from his body. After years of intensive rehabilitation and over 24 surgeries, Brian has a deep lived understanding of how physical, emotional, and mental pain can keep people buried, regardless of what their initial trauma was. His belief that everyone’s story is as important as his own is what makes him one of the most accessible, relatable, and authentic individuals you will ever meet. Brian is back by popular demand on The Ethical Evolution to help bring us a masterclass in taking out our trash, connecting with ourselves and unlocking the secrets to resilience.
