2. From Hamburger University to CEO: Chris Turcotte

Welcome to a powerful episode of Better Call Daddy, where we dive deep into resilience, authenticity, and the transformative power of embracing our past.

This week, hosts Reena Watts and Wayne Friedman are joined by Chris Turcotte, a dynamic CEO who has turned his challenging upbringing into a source of strength and motivation.

Chris shares his journey of overcoming adversity, from growing up with an abusive father to losing both parents at a young age. He reflects on how these experiences shaped his relentless work ethic and commitment to being a better father and leader.

With raw honesty, he discusses the importance of having difficult conversations and the necessity of being genuine in our relationships—both personal and professional.

In this episode, you'll hear Chris's insights on the black-and-white nature of his personality, his approach to leadership, and how he encourages real feedback from his team. He opens up about his struggles with self-destructive behavior and the pivotal moment that led him to choose life and purpose over despair.
