The Tension

If you’re a builder, leader, or change-maker, you already know the tension: the push and pull between where you are and where you want to be. It’s the moments when success doesn’t feel like you expected, when growth forces hard decisions, or when challenges test your limits.

Hosted by Travis Penfield, The Tension explores how high-performing leaders navigate these pivotal moments. You won’t find simple solutions here—because the tension isn’t something to be solved. Instead, you’ll hear stories, strategies, and insights to help you manage the tension and turn it into fuel for your personal and professional success.

Brandon Lanz

For the past six years, Brandon has helped with the development of advisors in the Dallas office, both while working in the Austin office and full-time after moving to Dallas in 2019. Mentorship has been a huge aspect of his development as a leader, and he hopes to continue fostering that same culture of learning and growth for the office.

The Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex has nearly 8 million residents, making it larger than 39 states in the US. Brandon and the team are driven to take advantage of this opportunity to impact people’s lives in their neighborhoods.

You can find Brandon spending quality time with his wife and son while also cheering on the Aggies in all sports.
