If you’re building at a high level—but quietly running on empty—this episode is for you.

On this episode of The Tim Castle Show, I sit down with Kerrie Lee Brown — Editor-in-Chief of SUCCESS Magazine, founder of RedLily, speaker, and author.

At 39, Kerrie had a heart attack.

Not because she didn’t know success.
But because she was chasing it the way most people do—relentlessly, externally, and at a cost.

Missing out on family moments, living for work, in the thick of the rat race and not able to give self care to herself.

This conversation goes far deeper than business.

It’s about the truth behind achievement.
The unseen pressure.
And the moment life forces you to redefine what success actually means.

If you’ve ever felt driven but disconnected… ambitious but exhausted… successful on paper but questioning everything underneath—this will hit home.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why learning to say no might be the most powerful move you ever make
• How to actually listen to your body before it forces you to
• Letting go of negative energy, expectations, and outdated definitions of success
• What real self-care looks like (beyond the clichés)
• How to enjoy life while building something meaningful
• The mission behind RedLilyLife.com—and why storytelling is a path to healing and clarity
• A new definition of success that doesn’t cost you your life to achieve

Kerrie shares her story with rare honesty.

No performance.
No filters.
Just truth.

And a reminder that success without health, presence, and connection isn’t success at all.

This isn’t just an episode.
It’s a recalibration.

Listen now—and remember what really matters.

Kerrie shares her story so authentically, she gives back and shows us how to not take life for granted, and to stop and smell the roses.

You’re not just negotiating with people anymore.

You’re negotiating with machines…
trained on more data than you’ll ever see in your lifetime.

They know your pricing.
Your patterns.
Your pressure points.

And here’s the uncomfortable truth…

Most people are about to become predictable.”

But the winners?
They won’t be the smartest.
They’ll be the most human.

This is the shift most people are missing.

What if the thing you’re searching for… isn’t success—but connection?

In this deeply personal and powerful conversation, Tim Castle sits down with bestselling author Jon Gordon (The Energy Bus, The Power of Positive Leadership, 3M+ copies sold) to explore the role of faith, healing, energy, and our relationship with God in shaping how we live, lead, and connect with others.

Before the books, before the global impact—there was struggle.

Debt.
Uncertainty.
A life that felt like it was falling apart.

And in that moment… a decision.

A decision to move toward faith over fear.
Connection over isolation.
Light over darkness.

This episode goes beyond leadership.

It’s about what it means to be human.

🌿 In this conversation, we explore:

• How to rebuild your life through faith, belief, and spiritual connection
• What it really means to have a relationship with God in everyday life
• The power of prayer and how it increases your capacity
• Why energy, love, and presence are the foundation of healing
• How to navigate anger, frustration, and conflict with awareness and grace
• The role of optimism, beliefs and actions in leadership
• How small acts of kindness and connection can change everything
• What it means to “be a light” in a world that often feels heavy

As the world becomes faster, louder, and more driven by technology…

This conversation is a reminder:

That healing is found in connection.
That strength is found in faith.
And that the most powerful force we have… is love.

This is not just a conversation about leadership. It's about wholeness, getting teams to be more connected.

It’s about coming home—to yourself, to others, and to God.

This is how you raise the standard.
