Hey everybody, it's Brian. Before I did this Seahawks stuff full-time, I worked as a manager and senior

leader, so I know how lonely it can be to try to find someone you trust to talk through people

issues, org issues, process issues, as you try to lead an organization. Ryan Cleveland of

Ryan Cleveland.com is someone I trust to have those conversations with.

He specialized in working with CEOs and business owners, and you can get a complimentary free

discovery session to see if it's a good fit for you. Just go to Ryancleveland.com to another episode of Real Hawk Talk. I am Brian M. Hauser. You can find me on

Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Blue Sky, YouTube, wherever you want to find your content, ad hoc blogger.

And this is a special show tonight. We're going to bring on a special guest here in a second.

And hopefully, if you haven't,

if you haven't already figured it out, because it's in the title and it's in the description, and we've been talking about it. I'm going to give a little bit of an intro, see if you can pick it out with that. Before I bring him aboard, let me bring in the fellas Nathan Ernst at Nathan E11. How are you doing, Nathan?

Doing pretty good. How you been, Brian?

I am doing well. How you been, Brian?

I am doing well.

Just still getting like a little discombobulated coast by coastal the last couple days.

It was a little jarring being around all of those NFL people at the annual feeding.

It was an experience.

So, yeah, yeah, it was fun.

It wasn't quite playing pickup basketball with Seahawks players like you've done.

Yeah, that once.

I did that once.

And I'm still like, you know, I'm 99% sure, but I have a chance that it's just wrong. Yeah. Is it true that you dunked on him, though? That's right. Yeah, 100%. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And then Jeff Simmons at real Jeff Simmons. How are you doing? Are you, uh, how's the baby man? Are you surviving? I'm surviving. I might need some tips from you guys about weight management.

I'm surviving. I might need some tips from you guys about weight management.
