As a child Justin Kan’s mother told him that he could do anything in life as long as he did it well, and that laid the foundation for the path he’s been on since his early 20’s. As a child, Kan says that he was inspired by his entrepreneur parents and would tell them that he wanted to be a CEO when he grew up. While his path to get there hasn’t been at all conventional, and for a time included him broadcasting a 24-hour live stream of his own life, the Twitch co-founder seems to have gotten his wish. Special thanks to our sponsor LMNT! Get your free sample pack here:DrinkLMNT.com/BryanElliottSupport the show

I think you’re really going to like this episode with bestselling author Greg McKeown. He’s a Brit and seems like a deeply spiritual man with strong convictions for his family and faith.That is what he credits for a recent health scare with one of his children who had a serious undiagnosed illness but eventually regained her health. Greg talks about the idea of Essentialism, which is not like minimalism where you pair down your belongings to the bare bones… No, Essentialism is about keeping only the things, ideas and beliefs that serve you well. This resonates with me as I’ve shared my story when I felt like a victim 10 years ago during a really dark time in my life. I was able to swap that story and adopt a new one of being a survivor —that was my essential keepsake. I would also like to thank our sponsor LMNT — and speaking of essentials…it’s a good segue into this amazing drink that’s improved my health in a big way. Some of you know I’ve been battling migraines for a while and my doctor hasn’t found any solutions for me. I’m so sick of taking medicine so I talked to several pro athlete friends and their trainers who told me I was probably missing important electrolytes. I ordered some LMNT [spelled with the 4 letters LMNT] which as essentials like magnesium, potassium and sodium and over a 30 day period I saw my headaches decrease by about half. I am hooked and so I reached out to the folks at LMNT HQ and we’re now working together to help more of you. Electrolyte deficiency or imbalances can cause headaches, cramps, fatigue, and weakness. For those FASTING meals or working out for fitness: electrolytes can make the difference between feeling great and feeling like garbage. When you sweat, the primary electrolyte lost is sodium - athletes can lose up to 7 grams per day. When sodium isn’t replaced, it’s common to experience muscle cramps and fatigue.  Anyway, I drink one before working out in the morning and one later after dinner to hydrate for the next day. Want to try a free sample pack? Goto: DrinkLMNT.com/BryanElliott and they will send you all of the flavors to try, shipping is 5 bucks.My personal favorite is the chocolate because I put it in my protein shake. I also love the Orange Salt. There’s a new watermelon flavor and I’m excited to try it!  Support the show

In my opinion Malcolm Gladwell is a one-in-generation kind of writer. Like F. Scott Fitzgerald or a more virtuous, thoughtful and gentle Hemingway without all the drinking, cavorting and tragedy. He is Canadian after all, and very proud of it.In this episode of Behind the Brand I convince Malcolm to reveal something personal about himself that most people do not know about him.His new book, the Bomber Mafia chronicles the history and rivalry between an elite group of chemists vs physicists who competed during WW2 to see who could help the allied forces, specifically the United States win and end the war against Japan. Malcolm is a prolific writer and the author of several of my favorite books, including David and Goliath, Outliers, The Tipping Point and many others. He’s also the host of The Revisionist Podcast, which I also recommend checking out. He has an uncanny way of finding the story behind the story and pointing out the important lessons often hiding or undocumented in fascinating true stories in history. I know you’ll enjoy this episode with the incomparable Malcolm Gladwell.Support the show
