He asked me to take this concept of inserting integrated teams into the SEALs,

So I went from the unit that I was stationed at and got reassigned to Naval Special Warfare Unit 10.

What I observed when I did that switch is that in the SEAL teams, there's this concept of the brotherhood that you hear them often talk about.

And I found that in their groups, it wasn't that they just perform well, but they felt unusually alive, which is something that you really capture in Flourish.

And this is fundamentally different from high performance.

And I was hoping you might be able to explain it.

Before we continue, I want to pause for a moment.

Conversations like this often surface a quiet realization.

Flourishing depends on whether people experience their presence as meaningful.

Inside the Ignited Life, each episode in the You Matter series is paired with guided reflection prompts designed to help you examine where your environments support presence and where they quietly drain it.

This week's prompts focus on noticing where people feel psychologically necessary and

identifying where systems reward contribution versus compliance clarifying what helps presence stay alive in your work relationships and communities you can explore them at the unitedlife.net and as we move toward february 24th i want to share something very close to my heart my new children's book you matter luma launches that day a story created to help children learn early that their presence counts before the world teaches them to measure worth through performance or comparison

Now, back to my conversation with Daniel Coyle.

When I think of that, another high-precision team that uses a similar concept is the Blue Angels.

After every single flight, they spend hours going through it.

Same thing, each one of the aviators is asked to evaluate the same three questions.
