About this listen

Finding Your Innergator is a podcast about leadership, life lessons, and discovering the strength that already lives inside you.


Hosted by Bryan "Captain R.B." Wright, VP of Retail Sales for one of the top mortgage lenders in America and a licensed Charter Boat Captain, the show blends real-world leadership experience with lessons learned on the water along the coast of Topsail Island.


After more than three decades leading teams in the mortgage industry and a lifetime spent on the water, R.B. has learned that success, resilience, and purpose are built the same way you navigate a boat — by understanding the tides, adjusting to conditions, and trusting your instincts.


Each episode features honest conversations, personal stories, and insights from business leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday people who have learned how to navigate life’s challenges and opportunities.


The idea behind the show is simple:

Inside every person is an Innergator — the part of you that knows you are capable of more.


Finding Your Innergator explores how to recognize that strength, trust it, and use it to move forward in life, leadership, and business.

  • The Internal Conversation That Changes Everything
    May 18 2026

    Send RB a note here


    What if the biggest thing holding you back… is the conversation happening inside your own head?

    This week on Finding Your Innergator, RB Wright shares an unexpected moment that stopped him in his tracks while attending an event in Charlotte, NC.

    Walking through the hotel hallway with Daniel DiGuglielmo (Danny D), RB noticed a hand-written “Growth Mindset” board hanging inside the HR office. What looked simple at first turned into one of the most powerful real-world reminders about mindset, self-talk, growth, discipline, and personal transformation.

    The board contained daily affirmations designed to challenge negative thinking and replace limitation with growth:

    “I can’t do this.”
    - “I am still learning.”

    “I’m afraid of making mistakes.”
    - “Mistakes are how I learn and grow.”

    “This is too hard.”
    - “With more practice, it will get easier.”

    “They are better than I am.”
    -“What can I learn from them?”

    In this episode, RB breaks down why mindset is not motivation — it is the lens through which you interpret adversity, pressure, failure, opportunity, and growth.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why failure is tuition
    • How repetition creates confidence
    • Why growth requires discomfort
    • The danger of negative self-programming
    • How comparison can either destroy confidence or fuel growth
    • Why your internal dialogue becomes your identity
    • The connection between mindset, discipline, and greatness

    This episode is a direct challenge to examine the words you repeat to yourself every single day.

    Because eventually…

    Your thoughts become your actions.
    Your actions become your habits.
    Your habits become your identity.
    And your identity becomes your life.

    If you’ve ever battled self-doubt, fear, comparison, frustration, or limitation — this episode is for you.

    You already have greatness inside of you.

    Now it’s time to let the gator out of the cage.

    This may be one of the most powerful and real conversations we’ve had on Finding Your Innergator.

    In this episode, RB Wright sits down with John Langdon, a loan officer whose story is nothing short of transformational.

    Just a few years ago, John was battling addiction at the deepest level—meth, heroin, and alcohol—living in what he describes as the darkest place imaginable.

    Today?

    He’s building a thriving business, impacting thousands of lives, and living out a mission rooted in discipline, faith, and purpose.

    What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

    • John’s journey from addiction and rock bottom to recovery and purpose
    • How small decisions led to massive consequences—and how new decisions changed everything
    • The role of discipline, faith, and daily habits in rebuilding a life
    • How he went from 14 loans a year → 83+ units → explosive growth in 2026
    • The power of massive action and consistency
    • Why relationships are the true driver of opportunity
    • How clarity and intentional action changed his trajectory

    The Turning Point:

    At his lowest moment, John wrote five words on a dry erase board:

    “Whatever it takes, I want to live.”

    That mindset didn’t just save his life…

    It now drives everything he does.

    Impact Beyond Business

    John is the co-founder of Whatever It Takes Addiction Prevention, a nonprofit focused on educating students about the dangers of addiction.

    • Reaching over 20,000 students
    • Sharing real stories that resonate
    • Helping young people make better decisions before it’s too late

    His message is simple:

    • Small decisions matter.
    • Discipline matters.
    • Your life can change.

    Key Takeaways:

    • You are not defined by your past
    • Growth requires intentional daily discipline
    • Massive action + consistency = massive results
    • Relationships create opportunities
    • When you change your mindset, everything changes

    This Week’s Challenge:

    Ask yourself:

    “Where am I not doing whatever it takes?”

    Is it your habits?
    Your discipline?
    Your consistency?

    Because that’s where your breakthrough is.

    Final Thought:

    Inside every one of us…

    there is greatness.

    But it’s not found.

    It’s built—one disciplined decision at a time.

    May 4 2026

    Send RB a note here

    What separates top performers from everyone else?

    It’s not talent.
    It’s not luck.

    It’s how they see the world differently.

    In this episode of Finding Your Innergator, RB Wright sits down with longtime friend, speaker, and author Zan Monroe to break down the mindset, awareness, and daily disciplines that allow high achievers to recognize opportunity early—and act on it.

    From powerful life lessons to real-world examples in business, fishing, and personal growth, this conversation dives deep into how trends develop, why most people miss them, and how you can position yourself ahead of the curve.

    They also explore one of the biggest shifts happening right now—artificial intelligence—and how to use it as a strategic advantage instead of falling behind.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck, uncertain, or like you’re missing something… this episode will challenge you to think differently.

    What You’ll Learn:

    • Why recruiting, growth, and success all start with identity
    • The difference between chasing opportunities vs. attracting them
    • How the “lily pad effect” explains success and failure trends
    • Why most people miss opportunities—even when they’re right in front of them
    • How to use AI as a thought partner, not just a tool
    • The role of daily discipline and tracking in long-term success
    • Why your comfort zone is the biggest threat to your growth

    Key Takeaway:

    You don’t fall behind overnight.
    You fall behind slowly—until one day it’s too late.

    Top performers don’t wait until the pond is full…
    They recognize the trend early and act.
