The David Guttman Podcast

Tanner Chidester spent over $3 million on coaches, masterminds, and mentors, and he has zero regrets. In this episode, he shares how he used to evaluate which investments in himself were worth making, why he fired coaches after 30 days if results weren’t materializing, and how a chance lunch with a family friend changed the entire direction of his life. What’s the one investment in yourself you’ve been putting off that could change everything?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Most people spend their entire lives waiting for others' approval, never stopping to ask what they actually want. Travis Chappell grew up inside a fundamentalist Baptist world so insular that he graduated kindergarten through college on the same 140-acre campus, committed to full-time ministry at age 12. In this episode, Travis and I unpack how radical self-awareness isn’t something you’re born with, but it’s something pressure forces out of you.

There’s no dress rehearsal for the moments that define you, and David Temko has lived that truth more than once. In this episode, I’m with the founder and CEO of C2 Financial to unpack a life shaped by entrepreneurial parents, a starter marriage, his father’s passing, and the unexpected clarity that comes when everything converges at once. David shares how traveling through 20 countries, cutting his teeth in commercial real estate, and eventually building his own commercial lending division prepared him for a leadership role he never asked for but was always being built toward.

Growing up in the shadow of a celebrated father isn’t a head start, it’s a gauntlet. Frank Ioppolo built his legal career largely to prove something to himself, channeling that chip on his shoulder into becoming the youngest partner at Greenberg Traurig and eventually running his own firm, with his father in the office right beside him. The three years they spent working desk-to-desk taught Frank more than his previous two decades of practice combined, and the two are still collaborating today.

In this episode, Seve shares the unexpected journey from philosophy major and volunteer firefighter to founding a payment processing company, and what wrestling, fire scenes, and door-to-door sales all have in common when it comes to building real character. What does it actually mean to stay coachable when you’re already winning?
