In this rich conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Barrett Brooks — executive coach, former COO of ConvertKit (now Kit), host of The Good Work Podcast, and steward of Presence-Based Coaching.

Barrett shares openly about:

The power of curating experiences and “hosting the party” (everyone wants to attend, few want to host)
Date nights at Nostrana and what they reveal about intentional leadership
The shift from false self (superhero, achievement-driven) to true self (enough, presence, “that’ll do, pig”)
Lessons from burnout at Kit and acquiring Presence-Based Coaching
How to create meaningful entry and exit rituals in group coaching
Building the organization he’s always longed for — one rooted in autonomy, wholeness, and long-term stewardship
Why the coaching industry needs both deep skill and entrepreneurial clarity

A thoughtful, practical episode for leaders, coaches, and creators who want to lead from wholeness rather than hustle.
