Brad McNamara has created companies, built teams, and learned how to lead differently at mid-career.
We start this episode by diving into Brad’s unlikely journey from on-air personality at Boston’s top station to becoming an agency owner, to serial entrepreneur, and current CEO of a truly innovative healthcare startup.
We talk about the difference between running hard and running smart in mid-career, the power of improv, and how the mental game of sports shows up in life and business.
Brad shares lessons learned through agency life, startup growth, building in healthcare, and why he thinks influencers may eventually play a key role in the future of "food as medicine."
We also get into what it’s like to lead while raising a family, and how open communication with your partner becomes a critical part of navigating mid-career life.
If you're leading a team (or thinking about your next big move), this one is full of practical insight and encouragement.
Thanks for being here.
