Built to Last

Most people think they're bad at sales. They freeze before a call, talk themselves out of following up and don't ask for the sale, convince themselves they're "just not a salesperson" and leave it at that. But being bad at sales is rarely the real problem. More often than not, people are focused on the wrong thing because sales was never about you. It's about the person in front of you and the pro...

Welcome to Kate With Intention, my own space within Built to Last. In these conversations, we'll explore what it means to build a successful business without sacrificing your health, values, home life or yourself along the way. Today, we're talking about the 'shoulds', the conditioning and the stories we tell ourselves that are running the show in our businesses and our lives and how to become mor...

Adrian here, with the first-ever Adrian Unfiltered episode. Same Built to Last podcast, just my solo space to speak openly about the stuff behind performance. The wins, the lessons, the patterns and the pressure. Grounded in lived experience and what it actually takes to build a life that feels good on the inside, not just on paper. I'll be honest, I was nervous recording this one. Which felt like...

Something happens when you finally give yourself space. The noise settles, the clarity arrives and you start to remember who you are. In this episode, we share what we've witnessed across seven retreats and why the people who show up always say the same thing afterwards. From men finding calm they hadn't felt in years to women saying they trusted themselves and each other again, what unfolds in th...

The average woman puts over 200 chemicals on her body before she leaves the house in the morning. Men are carrying a chemical load too, through the aftershave, the deodorant and the synthetic underwear worn all day. Most of us don't think twice about what's in the products we use every day. The washing liquid, the deodorant, the candles and what we cook with. We just buy what we've always bought w...

If you've ever known something wasn't right with your health but couldn't get anyone to listen, you're going to relate to a lot of what we share today. Today, we're sharing our health stories, the full version, from the beginning. Two very different journeys that shaped everything we do today. Body image, hormonal imbalances, steroids, burnout, fatigue, gut issues and years of sitting across from...

Across both of our businesses, we work with a lot of passionate, driven people. And for so many of them, especially when they first come to us, the feeling is the same. Overwhelmed, trapped inside the day-to-day, producing work for clients but never quite getting ahead. The team energy is off, the leadership feels hard and the growth they want keeps getting pushed back because there's just no brea...

Burnt out, overwhelmed and not entirely sure why? Most conversations about burnout stop at the surface. Too much on your plate, not enough sleep, overcommitted and under-rested. All true. But in our experience, that's rarely where the real answer lives. Today, we go a lot deeper than that. We get into the root cause that actually sits underneath the exhaustion, the things we've both had to look at...

Welcome to episode one of Built to Last. We're Adrian and Kate Addamo, husband and wife, holistic performance coach and business mentor and two people who've spent a lot of years figuring out a different way to live and work. In this first episode, we're sharing the story behind Built to Last, how the name came about, what brought us both here and why we decided to do this together. We've both exp...

Before the first episode drops, we wanted to introduce ourselves. We're Adrian and Kate Addamo, husband and wife, business mentor and holistic performance coach. Between the two of us, we've worked with hundreds of men and women in one-on-one settings and we keep hearing the same thing. Life looks fine on the outside but something underneath doesn't add up. The blueprint most of us inherited isn't...
