What does it mean to master your craft—and yourself—in service of others?In this episode of The Purpose-Focused Advisor, I’m joined by John Terry, Black Belt Leadership founder, leadership coach, and three-time Martial Arts Hall of Famer. John's journey began with pain—bullied in a new town—and evolved into a lifelong pursuit of purpose through practice. What followed was a transformation from student to teacher to a leader committed to raising up others.We explore what real mastery looks like—not titles or credentials, but consistency, belief, and the willingness to do the hard things, even when it’s not fun. We talk about developing the muscle memory of excellence, why self-work always precedes business growth, and how advisors can turn conversations into transformational experiences for clients.John doesn’t just teach technique. He teaches transformation. He doesn’t push perfection—he preaches persistence. And for financial advisors who want to lead with lasting impact, his story is a masterclass in purpose-driven growth.If you've ever wondered how belief, practice, and purpose intersect in leadership, this episode will inspire you to keep showing up—and keep leveling up.Key Takeaways: The Black Belt Is Just the Beginning (03:28) – Earning your black belt isn’t the finish line; it’s the moment you’ve earned the right to truly begin learning and leading.Grow the Business by Growing Yourself (07:14) – The quality of your thinking limits the quality of your outcomes—personal development is the best business development.Clients Want Solutions, Not Products (09:45) – Advisors who lead with empathy and curiosity uncover real problems and offer meaningful strategies—not just financial tools.Mastery Requires Reps and Resistance (18:10) – Becoming world-class means doing the hard, unglamorous work daily—even when it’s uncomfortable or boring.Leadership Is Preparing Others to Lead (25:45) – The ultimate role of a leader is to equip the next generation to take your place and lead even better than you did. John Terry: "Everybody has an opportunity to become a world-class black belt master of who they are and what they do—but it requires that they discover what that is, develop it, and then ultimately deploy it to make a difference where they are."Rob Brown: "I work with a lot of really outwardly successful financial advisors who have reached levels of assets they never thought possible—but the real successful ones are always asking, ‘What can I do next to get even better at what I’m doing?’"About John Terry: Why just be a leader when you can be a Black Belt Leader?
