Manage episode 478868092 series 1429500
What if the very personality traits people called “bossy” in you are actually your most powerful gifts?
On this eye-opening episode of Thrive Loud with Lou Diamond, we sit down with Andrew Adames—a Brooklyn native turned Floridian on a mission to empower others to become the best versions of themselves. Andrew’s journey moves from humble beginnings and career uncertainty to personal transformation and purposeful leadership, showing how anyone can uncover hidden talents and harness their unique strengths.
Key Highlights:
From Rock Bottom to Empowerment: Andrew recounts moving to Florida with nothing but a suitcase and how his dad’s leap of faith jumpstarted his journey.
Spotting Hidden Leadership: Hear how an insightful supervisor at SeaWorld saw Andrew’s potential, setting him on a path to discover his calling as a leader, trainer, and, ultimately, passionate coach.
The Breakthrough Moment: Andrew shares a moving story of helping a woman realize her “bossy” side was actually raw leadership ability, triggering a life-changing perspective shift for her—and inspiring Andrew to dive deep into personal development.
Built Unstoppable: Learn about the coaching mastermind Andrew runs with Nate Green, focused on helping people and coaches discover their core, long-term motivation (the “fire logs”), and personal “lighthouse” to navigate toward purpose.
Coaching the Coaches: Why helping leaders and coaches clarify their own strengths and stories is key to their impact—and how lingering childhood beliefs often hold back even the most capable adults.
Legacy in Action: Andrew reveals the deeper “why” that fuels his work: leaving a legacy that leaves a legacy, and finding meaning in every connection, big or small.
