Send us a text Have you ever said, “I just have no willpower”? Yeah, me too. But what if the problem isn’t that you’re weak—or that you don’t want it bad enough? What if the real issue is that you’re trying to use willpower the wrong way… at the wrong time? In this episode, I’m breaking down what I learned from Gary Keller’s The One Thing, along wi…

Send us a text Sometimes, the message hits differently. This is a fresh riff on a truth I’ve shared before—but now I see it more sharply, more urgently: You can’t fake consistency. Time is the ultimate storyteller. Where you are right now is the result of what you've done repeatedly, not what you've said, planned, or promised. In this episode, I un…

Send us a text Most people aren’t stuck because they made the wrong decision. They’re stuck because they never made any decision at all.

If you’ve been second-guessing yourself… stuck in neutral…

Send us a text We talk a lot about habits, but what we don’t talk about enough is tolerance—what you let slide, what you justify, what you slowly start accepting. In this episode, I explore the asymmetry of tolerance—how we unconsciously expand our tolerance for destructive behaviors, while simultaneously shrinking our tolerance for the discomfort …

Send us a text Today, I unpack a powerful idea from Ray Dalio’s Principles: “To be effective, your need to be right must not be more important than your need to find out what’s true.” How often are we more focused on proving ourselves right than actually learning something new? This episode explores: The difference between being right and being eff…

Send us a text I've always wondered why some great players struggle to become great coaches—and why good (not great) players, the ones who weren’t always at the top, often turn out to be great coaches. Our personal story, our expectations, and even our success can sometimes get in the way of truly seeing and developing others. If you’ve ever led a …

Send us a text This is probably one of the most important episodes I’ve ever done. We’re talking about the difference between beliefs and believing, and how clinging to old beliefs might be the very thing holding you back from building what’s next. Beliefs can become traps. They can turn into condemnation, regret, and self-sabotage, especially when…

Send us a text What if the fastest way forward… was to slow down? In this episode, I unpack a quote from Tolstoy that hooked me: “Taking slow, small steps forward without stopping is the best way if you want to understand truth and the meaning of life.” If you’ve been feeling stuck, burned out, or like you’re racing through life without a clear dir…

Send us a text I was reading "Born of This Land" by Chung Ju-Yung, the founder of Hyundai, and one passage stopped me, causing me to whip out my legal pad and really think it through. “When a small idea, the size of a grain of rice, is implanted in my mind, I nurture it until it grows into a major project I can visualize in my head.” That’s the key…

Send us a text In this episode, I riff off Catherine Brown’s book How Good Humans Sell and connect it to a powerful point from Mike Weinberg’s conversation with Ahsan Wardak: most salespeople aren’t actually selling—they’re presenting. What separates the pros from the pack? The pause. Pauses aren’t awkward—they’re powerful. However, too many salesp…

Send us a text Most salespeople aren’t actually selling—they’re presenting. And there’s a big difference. In this episode, I break down a powerful conversation between Mike Weinberg and Ahsan Wardak about why salespeople default to pitching features and benefits instead of solving real problems. We talk about: Why presenting is just marketing, not …

Send us a text What if the real reason you're stuck isn’t because life is hard, but because you’re reacting to it instead of leading it? In this episode, I break down a powerful line from James Allen’s Book of Meditations: “Things follow thoughts. Alter your thoughts, and things will receive a new adjustment.” Most people live in reverse, letting t…

Send us a text I just finished Andrea Waltz and Richard Fenton's new book, "Go For No (the sequel)." Cassidy, who is fresh out of college, goes to work with her dad selling, and wasn't prepared for the amount of rejection she was facing.

Send us a text Many people view responsibility as fault. "Who's to blame for this?" But finding blame and fault only keeps you stuck and powerless. Some things may or may not have been your fault. You can't rewrite the past, but you can begin writing your future, but only if you take responsibility from here. Support the show 📣Who needs to hear thi…

Send us a text Recently, I took a week off. I didn't write, read, or work out. The first few days felt good, but the good vibes quickly tarnished. I began to feel purposeless, hopeless, and dark. That is when I realized that separation is a good thing, but too much distance from the things that you care about can be very dangerous. Support the show…

Send us a text John Ruskin wrote, "If you are not happy with your life, you can change it in two ways: change the conditions in which you live or (I say, and.) change your inner spiritual state. The first you cannot always change, but the second one you can." Happiness is a direction, NOT a destination. You will never possess anything that will mak…

Send us a text Let's get it. Today, I unpack the hidden value of productive tension—why it’s not something to avoid but something to embrace if you want real growth.

Send us a text We all say we want success, growth, and impact, but very few of us are willing to wait for them. In this episode, I unpack a short but powerful chapter from Gary Vaynerchuk’s book 12 1/2—the chapter on patience. It’s only four pages long, but it hits like a sledgehammer. Because patience isn’t just about waiting—it’s about who you be…

You might feel like you're working the same job, walking into the same rooms, dealing with the same people and problems.
