   Keep Shining with Stuart MacMillan — Episode with Kyle Kimbro

   Welcome to The Lighthouse Collective podcast series Keep Shining with Stuart MacMillan. In this episode, Stuart sits down with entrepreneur, leader, and mentor Kyle Kimbro to talk about learning, mentorship, growth, and the legacy we leave in others. Kyle shares why learning and mentorship should be a lifestyle, the difference between simply consuming information and actually applying what we learn, and how being willing to unlearn, grow, and step into discomfort can transform our lives and leadership. Together, they explore the importance of investing in people, multiplying leaders, living authentically, and leaving a legacy that continues long after we are gone. What you will hear: Why learning, mentorship, and legacy should be treated as a lifestyle and a daily posture. The difference between simply gaining information and actually applying and being transformed by what we learn. Why Kyle believes we should listen with the mindset of, “How can I teach what I’m being told right now?” How growth requires us to unlearn old perspectives and remain open to learning, change, and new ideas. Kyle’s story of a successful entrepreneur who sat down with him and said, “I don’t, but educate me,” demonstrating the humility and hunger required to keep learning. A difficult business lesson that taught Kyle the importance of being present, taking care of what is in front of us, and treating the little things as big things. The qualities Kyle looks for in someone he can mentor: being hungry, coachable, willing to take notes, ask questions, and put what they learn into action. How stepping into uncomfortable situations helps people grow, expand their confidence, and become the person they are capable of becoming. Why authenticity matters in leadership and why people lose trust when leaders do not live consistently with what they say. The difference between an inheritance and a legacy, and why a legacy is what we leave in someone. How faith, prayer, mentorship, and the example of Kyle’s grandfather have shaped his life and the legacy he hopes to carry forward. Memorable lines: "An inheritance is something that you leave to someone. A legacy is something that you leave in someone." "You gotta be hungry and you gotta be coachable. Period." About Kyle Kimbro: Kyle Kimbro is a Registered Investment Advisor and partner in a wealth management company. Together with his wife of 15 years, Joi, he has built businesses in real estate, sales, team building, and coaching. Recent transplants from Texas to Florida, trading in boots for board shorts and bikinis, Kyle grew up in Kyle, Texas, and played football at the Naval Academy until an injury in the Army vs. Navy game ended his career. He moved back to Texas, where he met and married Joi. They love helping people grow, become the best version of themselves, and live a life they once never thought possible. For fun, they enjoy working out, fishing, hunting, boating, and beaching, and they love the outdoors and an active life. Today, Kyle and Joi live in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, with their two children, Ryder (12) and Paislee (10).

   Keep Shining with Stuart MacMillan — Learning & Legacy

   Welcome to The Lighthouse Collective podcast series, Keep Shining with Stuart MacMillan. In this special solo episode for September, Stuart explores the powerful connection between learning, personal development, and legacy. With honesty and vulnerability, he reflects on how his own motivations for pursuing knowledge and leadership were once focused on recognition, and how that perspective changed as he discovered that true leadership is about pouring into people's lives and leaving a lasting legacy. Through stories and lessons from John Maxwell, Stuart challenges us to keep learning, share what we learn with others, and focus less on creating our resume and more on influencing our eulogy. What you will hear Why our motivations matter and why we should regularly ask ourselves, "Why am I doing this?" Stuart's honest reflection on how his early pursuit of knowledge, education, and leadership was motivated by recognition and the desire to show how smart he was. How John Maxwell's 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership changed Stuart's perspective on leadership, showing him that leadership is about pouring into people's lives and leaving a legacy. The importance of continually investing in ourselves so that we can help other people grow and become the best versions of themselves. Two stories about John Maxwell that demonstrate his humility and his willingness to never stop learning. Why knowledge and education can become wasted if our quest for learning isn't motivated by sharing what we learn and pouring into others. The lighthouse as a powerful picture of personal development: if you want to be a light, you have to work at keeping that light. Memorable lines “I've been on a decades-long journey to be a better version of myself, so that I can share what I've learned to help other people be better versions of themselves.” “Think less about creating your resume, and more about influencing your eulogy.” About Stuart MacMillan Stuart MacMillan is a leader, speaker, and co-founder of The Lighthouse Collective. With decades of experience in building people-centered cultures and coaching purpose-driven leaders, his passion is equipping others to shine brightly and lead meaningfully. Through the Keep Shining podcast, Stuart shares insights on leadership, faith, and personal growth, all centered on the core belief that everyone is made to be a light—continually learning, growing, and using what we learn to positively influence the lives of others.

   Keep Shining with Stuart MacMillan — Independence Entrepreneurship

   Welcome to The Lighthouse Collective podcast series Keep Shining with Stuart MacMillan. In this special solo episode for August, Stuart explores entrepreneurship not simply as starting a company or taking a financial risk, but as a way of looking at life. He explains what it means to see possibilities instead of simply accepting what is, to face fear and failure with courage, and to become entrepreneurial wherever God has placed you. Through the story of Benaiah chasing a lion into a pit on a snowy day, Stuart challenges us to stop waiting for perfect conditions, dream bigger, take responsibility, and let our light shine. What you will hear Why entrepreneurship is much bigger than starting a company; it is a way of looking at life and seeing what could be instead of simply accepting what is. The story of Benaiah chasing a lion into a pit on a snowy day, and what it teaches us about courage, opportunity, and running toward the roar. Why courage is not the absence of fear, but deciding that something else matters more than the fear. How entrepreneurship becomes personal development by building resilience, wisdom, communication, leadership, and resourcefulness. Bob Goff's three questions from Dream Big: What do you want? Why do you want it? And what are you going to do about it? Why you don't have to own a company to be an entrepreneur, and how an entrepreneurial mindset can transform the way we work inside organizations. Why entrepreneurship reveals our character and develops qualities such as patience, integrity, humility, discipline, perseverance, empathy, generosity, and faith. The connection between entrepreneurship and shining: helping people see possibilities, creating opportunities, and igniting someone else's light. A challenge to stop waiting for perfect conditions or permission, dream bigger, take the step, and become the person the dream requires you to become. Memorable lines “Success isn't simply what you accumulate—it's who you become.” “Sometimes we think we're chasing the dream—and somewhere along the way we discover… it's actually the dream that has been shaping us.” About Stuart MacMillan Stuart MacMillan is a leader, speaker, and co-founder of The Lighthouse Collective.
