In this deeply moving episode of Wealthy Mind, I sit down with Jerry Schemmel, one of the 112 survivors of a devastating plane crash 35 years ago. His near-death experience is nothing short of extraordinary—and it had me in tears within minutes.

Today, both Jerry and I open up about our own brushes with death. Since my own NDE in June, I’ve been reflecting deeply on what it means to be brave. Bravery isn’t just about surviving—it’s about letting go of what we thought life should be and embracing what is. These moments change us, if we allow them to.

Whether you're facing a major challenge or a quiet struggle, Jerry’s story will offer perspective, hope, and inspiration. And beyond his incredible journey, Jerry has a fascinating day job: he’s the radio broadcaster for the Colorado Rockies. His path to that role is a testament to perseverance and passion—especially for anyone dreaming of a career in broadcasting.

This episode is about courage, surrender, and the unexpected ways life can shape us. We hope it speaks to your heart.

Chris Tyrrell is the purpose driven owner of Chris' Garage Doors. I know...garage doors are pretty straight forward. We did have a lot to talk about regardless. Chris' philosophy is rooted in the belief that you can attach your purpose to anything you do and find passion along the way like he did. As I live out my purpose I find this to be very true. Following my purpose always comes with the right passion. If my passion reduces, I know it will come back as I consistently focus on daily tasks associated with my purpose. Thank God, Chris is writing a book about purpose vs passion. Someone sure needs to! The working title is Open The Door. Please make sure to follow Chris on social media for updates on the book's progress.

Rob Whittet is the Principal Partner of The Brokerage Insurance Group, The BIG. Such a great name! Why would a business owner need commercial insurance? In today's episode, Rob fills us in on some not so obvious insurance needs business owners might face. Are you familiar with Key Player insurance? Until Rob and I sat down for our pre-interview, I wasn't. I think it's a great way to care for a business partner or employee. Ultimately it protects the business just in case you or your business partner leaves this life and goes on to the next one. As business owners we need to treat our business as an asset and do everything we can to protect our #1 asset. Having the right insurance in place looks good to prospective buyers if or when you decide to exit. We don't know what we don't know until the right person comes along and enlightens us. Rob sure did that today.

Bret Wickstrom is a trusted bookkeeper in the Denver business community. Most of us don't fully understand the role and function of a bookkeeper. After today, I am certain that will change. I learned so much about the differences between a bookkeeper and CPA in my conversation with Bret. For those of us who want to grow our business to the next level, Bret might be the next step. He can take over simple to complex financial tasks, helping you buy back some time and give you peace of mind. It's time to think about delegating so you can do more of what you are passionate about.
