Today, I’m chatting with Brooke Martin – an incredible human being and very talented Executive Assistant who has worked with me for the past 3 years. While Brooke manages my calendar with exceptional skill, her impact goes way beyond scheduling. Brooke allows me to excel not just in my business, but also as a husband, father, and in every other aspect of my life.
In fact, here’s what she said on the pod…
My goal as an EA is to make sure that Brad shows up the best that he can. I want other people to look at our time together, however long it is, and say Brad was a better husband, he was a better father, he was a better founder, and teammate, because Brooke was his EA. I want him to be the hero to his family and the company. That's really my heart, that's my goal in this whole thing.
That is the type of person you want in your corner and I feel so grateful to have her in mine!
In this episode, we’re going to break down exactly what Brooke does for me, why this role is so critical to building a business, and how getting the right person for this role will completely transform how you do business and life.
