Summary

In today’s episode, I sit down with entrepreneur and speaker Chad Sanschagrin to talk about the shift from survival to transformation. Chad shares the personal turning points that helped him break free from victimhood, including the night he met his wife and made a decision to become someone he was proud of. We talk about forgiveness, spiritual alignment, and learning to love yourself when the mirror doesn’t reflect the person you’re becoming. Chad opens up about his journey through faith, discipline, and emotional resilience, and why praying for storms is part of growing stronger.

I'm David Meltzer and I'm blessed to be here with an amazing entrepreneur, an amazing coach,

but even a more amazing person. We're here at the Masters. It's an intimate group that we have

0:10.8

a mastermind before we get something that's truly inspirational and experiential because of the

0:16.1

frequency. It doesn't matter the golf. It is its own ecosphere.

0:22.4

And I love watching people.

0:28.1

It's like the people from Michigan, for some reason, they don't leave Michigan and you get to take them to Manhattan for the first time.

The Masters has a different frequency.

0:38.0

And it's not just the community around here during the Masters, but once you enter that gate, everything changes. It's like scuba diving. All of your senses change. And what I try

0:51.2

the awareness of that frequency. Chad Srigan is that type of person.

He speaks around the world, coaches people.

We always want to pull a seat up next to us.

1:00.9

And first, I just wanted to thank you for owning the seat. And your progress has just excited me that we're on the right mission together.

1:19.5

Yeah, I appreciate that. And it's God that put me in the seat first and foremost. So the seat's

1:24.5

only possible through all things to God. And so it's interesting. I think

1:28.7

a lot of times you get invited into a room, but you don't think you belong in the room. And it took

1:34.0
