Today on the podcast, Brandon and I are talking why your 20's matter so much, and what you can be doing now to groove good habits, get yourself around people who can help jumpstart your success and the importance of getting a little serious earlier in your life than you might want. We also share a few of our favorite (and not so favorite) nicknames.

This week we're talking about attending events as a way for you to grow and stretch, as well as connect with other people who can help you reach your goals. Brandon spoke last night in Glendale, AZ at the Impact Players Tour and we share our thoughts about what we learned from some amazing speakers we heard while there.  Something to think about this week: Would you pay $1000 to spend a day with someone who has been where you currently are, but has transcended that to accomplish 10X more? What are your thoughts on this? I'd love to hear them in the comments below! 

On today's episode, Brandon surprises me with an accent that I didn't know he had.. and we recount the bad advice we received in our 20's. This was one of my favorite podcasts so far!

From visualization to asking the right types of questions, this week we're giving you our Tips for Kickstarting Your Career. Brandon joins me on the show.  How about the fact that this is our 20th episode of the podcast? Thank you so much for all of your feedback, ratings and reviews, as well as your questions via Instagram. Brandon always jokes that you are MY listeners, but just know that we both sincerely appreciate each and every one of you for having given our podcast a listen. Keep your comments coming, we love to read them!

Age is a popular topic around here on the podcast, but today we're talking about it in a different way. People use their age as a way of excusing themselves for not doing being able to do something. I've been guilty of this as well! Brandon calls it "a crutch" and he's right. Today we're sharing some tips for helping you feel empowered at ANY and how to stop apologizing for your age.

I'm taking questions and sharing your feedback on today's show! And as teased in the last episode, I'll be addressing some of my thoughts on the direction of the show.

Welcome back to the podcast! This week the intersection of Age Gap Realness and The B DAWSON Show is strong, with a personal component AND a business one. We're talking about The Three T's (Transactional, Transitional and Transformational) and how they apply to not only your business but also your personal relationships. We also pay homage to Jay Z, a favorite of ours, who recently was named by Forbes as the first billionaire rapper!

This week we are talking about the FOUR F-WORDS of Dating -- Fun, Fitness, Finance and Family (not necessarily in that order, which is the basis of our conversation). Brandon joins me on the show to talk about how these priorities are often different depending on age.

Welcome back to the podcast you guys! Today we're in Miami, Florida and are taking a moment to celebrate and reflect on the Cardone Ventures 10X Executive Strategy Summit! It was such a pleasure and honor to speak with so many forward thinking business leaders who want to 10X their businesses and lives. It was also transformative for us in a number of ways, all of which we talk about on the show! From realizing our goals to start a new business, to getting back into public speaking, Brandon and I talk about the many ways you can (and should) be cheering on your spouse or significant other!

We are back this week talking about a topic which has me feeling feisty and spicy! The topic for today's show is Judgement. How should you treat people who judge your relationship, especially when they are people you know and have called friends? Brandon joins me to discuss.

Today we are changing up the conversation a bit. What does it mean to be a "Plus One" and how does it relate to age gap relationships? Of course, you don't need to be in an age gap relationship to feel like (or be) a plus one, but there are many parallels. And, is Brandon a "plus one" for Grant? Brandon joins me on the show to talk about it.

Today we're going to be talking navigating relationships when you have step-children that are your age! This was a challenging podcast to record as I am sure you will see. Brandon joins me on the show.

Today we are going to talk about living life without regret. It's an important topic, especially given the news that Brandon's stepmother Anni passed away this past week. Recording a podcast today was hard, but it's part of our grieving process. Brandon joins me on the show.

We're back this week with my favorite CO-HOST to talk about staying goal oriented as a couple. Now we know that our listeners are already goal oriented people, but the challenge is STAYING goal oriented. Brandon and I discuss how we push and challenge each other to stay on track. And we tease a few upcoming projects! Hey guys? We'd love to hear your opinions on the show. And if you've listened to AGR before, you know we read them! If you loved the show, drop us a review and rate us 5 stars! 

If you've been around us you know, we tend to bicker, argue and yes, even fight! But it's all love, so we wanted to share some of our tips and techniques for getting over those differences faster! Brandon joins me on the podcast.

This is the second week in a row where we have a special guest! Michael the Pickle is in the building! If you don't know who Michael the Pickle is, he is the father of two, most specifically me. He's my dad!  The family part of the age gap relationship is what I'm asked about most. So today my dad joins the show to discuss our family's experience with my age gap relationship.

This week we have a special guest, Elena Cardone, on the Age Gap Realness podcast. Elena talks about how she’s navigated her 15 year age gap with Grant, dealt with haters, and created her empire. For more information on Elena, check out her on Instagram @elenacardone or buy her book at elenacardone.com Note: There were some audio issues with this one, but they get better as the show goes on!

Today's topic is a fun one! Let's talk about the presumption that some people have that I'm Brandon's daughter. How do you handle this awkward situation in an age gap relationship? How should you respond? How would YOU respond? Brandon joins me on today's show to talk about it.
