\u201cNils knew all about me and knew what would motivate me. He knew his craft, but he knew me and that\u2019s a recipe for success.\u201d \u2014 Brian Buffini
Like many successful people, Brian takes time away from his business to rest, recover and recharge. In this episode, he shares a story of taking a trip to the Comox Valley in British Columbia with his then-15-year old son to rest, think, bond and hike. At the urging of his son, they hired a guide named Nils to lead them up one of the tallest mountains in the Canadian Rockies. With Nils\u2019 coaching and advice, Brian learned a valuable lesson that reconnected him with why he enjoys coaching in the first place. You\u2019ll learn why mountain climbing is a lot like life, the importance of having experts on your side and what motivates Brian to coach people to succeed.
