Adam Edmunds: Why High Performers Secretly Struggle With Feeling Enough

I lost myself in the success and the busyness of that place.

So that, I lost myself in that, um, and it was 2019 was the year where the wheel started to come off [laughs] and, like, the masks and the characters I was playing, I couldn't do it anymore.

My 23-year-old, he's told me, like, "You weren't there from age 13 to 17, 18," you know.

"You were gone." I was gone.

And I was like, "I am going to be rich and dead.

I won't survive this much longer." And so I called Miles Clements, our partner at Excel, the next morning and said, "I'm out."

Welcome back to Case Studies.

Um, I'm here with my what feels like old friend-

[laughs]

... it's actually, like, literally the first time we've actually met in person-

First face to face

... um, with Adam Edmonds, uh, who's currently CEO of Entrada, which is, what I feel is kind of one of the best businesses ever to be built in Utah.

Mm-hmm.

Phenomenal business, um, beautiful business, and we can kinda go through, like, w- why it's such a awesome business, but your, your track, that's what I wanna go into, is kind of how you ended up here, and then just a lot of life stuff along the way.
