Forgiveness isn't emotional. It's tactical.

In this episode, Brian breaks down a powerful Jim Rohn framework on the four people you must forgive, or address, if you want to perform at a higher level in life and business. Unresolved resentment doesn't just linger emotionally... it distorts decisions, adds friction, and quietly caps execution.

From forgiving your parents and others, to forgiving yourself, to owning the apologies you owe, this episode shows how hidden baggage shows up as hesitation, overcorrection, and smaller bets.

This isn't about being nice. It's about clearing mental noise, reclaiming focus, and unlocking cleaner decision-making.
