Summary
As we move through the first quarter of 2026, the Unlocked trio—Chad from Loc-Doc Security , Tony from Assured Security , and Lars from Calgary Lock & Safe —flip the script on traditional goal setting. Instead of focusing on what to add to their lives, they dive deep into what they need to quit . The conversation gets raw as Lars opens up about the danger of "ruminating" on past mistakes and his journey toward finding a partner and prioritizing health. Tony discusses the "nice vs. kind" paradox, committing to stop seeking consensus at the expense of doing what's right for the business. Chad reveals his radical approach to reclaiming focus by locking his phone down for 19 hours a day. From battling the "amygdala's" loud voice to ending the cycle of vague priorities, this episode is a blueprint for simplifying your life to amplify your results.
