#57 Breaking Free: Redefining Family and Building Healthy Relationships

The focus of this episode of The BAM Podcast, is being held hostage, a concept Jayson explores in various contexts. In the business realm, being held hostage can mean tolerating inappropriate behavior from an employee or being manipulated into making decisions against your will. 

He clarifies that being held hostage doesn't necessarily involve a gunpoint situation or kidnapping but takes different forms. Jayson emphasizes the importance of building bench strength within an organization to avoid being held hostage by relying on a single salesperson or key employee. He draws parallels with sports teams that draft replacements to avoid contract negotiations or salary cap constraints. Beyond the business aspect, Jayson expands on being held hostage in other areas of life, such as toxic relationships, both personal and professional!
