How to Handle What Life Throws at You (Without Losing Yourself) ft. Dayton Leblanc

In this episode of The Alchemy Podcast, host Doug Cartwright sits down with sales phenom and recruiter Dayton LeBlanc to unpack how he transformed a turbulent childhood into elite performance in pest control, alarms (Vivint), and now solar. Dayton opens up about witnessing abuse at home, rewiring his mindset as a teen, paying off debt with his first summer commission, and why conviction, integrity, and service—not scripts—win. They go deep on switching industries, building emotional capacity (“I can handle it”), recruiting through authentic personal branding, leading from the front, and Dayton’s vision for his team, The War Room. Timestamps of Key Moments 00:00 — Intro: Welcoming guest Dayton LeBlanc and setting the table for a vulnerable, high-performance conversation. 02:18 — Childhood Reality Check: Dayton describes growing up scared, witnessing his mom’s abuse, and how those moments shaped his capacity to love and lead. 05:46 — Coping as a Kid: Fear, hiding under the bed, learning to read people early—and realizing later it wasn’t “normal.” 09:12 — $13–15K in Debt at 15: Blows an engine, takes a sales leap, lives off a maxed card—then gets his first wire and pays everyone back. 12:50 — Environment & Belief: First time on a plane, leaders reflect his worth back to him; shifting from “poor me” to “use it as fuel.” 16:05 — Wire Day: The call, the bank, the cash on the table—closing the loop with family and a new identity. 19:40 — From Pest to Vivint: Why he chased leadership over money, set out to break records, and built conviction beyond “the pitch.” 24:28 — Leaving Vivint for Solar: Not fearing the storm, learning longer-cycle sales, and choosing service (grandma-first mindset) over speed. 29:55 — Sales Philosophy Script: “It’s an emotional transaction.” Selfless listening, deeper time with customers, delayed gratification. 34:22 — Recruiting via Personal Brand: Attract, don’t push. Give real value, scale through your leaders’ 100-lists, and keep commitments (5 a.m. texts, answering at 3 a.m.). 39:47 — Lead From the Front: Manage the system, not the emotions. Stack receipts. Build capacity with the mantra: “I can handle it.” 44:58 — War Room & What’s Next: Creating a home for reps when “the industry loves you till you’re gone,” and why this year will be Dayton’s biggest yet.
