You’ll discover: Why consistency isn’t about perfection—it’s about keeping your word.How even the most confident leaders navigate doubt without letting it stop ...
Send us a text What if the real secret to extraordinary success isn’t in grand gestures or viral moments—but in embracing what most people consider boring? In this episode, I break down how the best in the world use routine and repetition to their advantage. Mark Zuckerberg wears the same gray t-shirt every day. Steve Jobs stuck to his black turtleneck. Kobe Bryant spent hours shooting the same free throws. Tiger Woods drilled three-foot putts over and over again. These habits weren’t random—...

Nick’s journey from a self-described “jock” who avoided books to a thriving entrepreneur built on reading is both inspiring and practical. What sets Nick apart is his systematic approach to reading for results: Ho...

Send us a text “Confidence isn’t something you’re born with—it’s a skill you can train.” Do elite athletes ever doubt themselves?

This conversation bl...
Send us a text Failure might be the most misunderstood concept in our success-obsessed culture. The world’s best innovators—from Booking.com to Jeff Bezos to Michael Jordan—have shown that failure isn’t something to avoid, it’s the very foundation of success. In this episode, I unpack powerful stories that reveal why doubling your rate of “unsuccessful attempts” might be the most important move you make toward growth. Key Takeaways: Failure and success are inseparable twins—every miss is a st...

His STEP framework (Support, Trust, Energy, Persistence) has since helped countless people take their first step toward recovery after trauma. 3 Takeaways: Your mindset shapes your recovery more than your prognosis.Focus only on what’s right in front of you to...
Send us a text On December 4th, I’ll run over 200 miles across South Carolina to raise a goal of at least $20,000 for families battling cancer through Breaking Ribbons, an initiative born from deep personal loss and a desire to do hard things for those going through even harder things. This challenge isn’t about running—it's about choosing voluntary suffering to serve those who don’t have that choice. Tune in, share the mission, and ask yourself: what hard thing is calling you? 3 Key Takeaway...
Send us a text What does it really mean to win? Lately, I’ve been sitting with this question—and the more I observe high performers, the more I notice a common thread: the most successful people aren’t doing everything. They’re obsessed with one thing. This episode was inspired by my time at the Aspire Tour, where leaders like Ed Mylett, David Goggins, and Jesse Itzler laid out their blueprints for success. What stood out? Simplicity. Focus. Depth. Whether it’s Bezos building everything arou...

Send us a text Your words don't just reflect your reality—they create it. A lesson I learned early in my career taught me that saying "I'll try" invites uncertainty, while commitment begins with decisive language. The words we use—especially those that signal doubt or limitation—shape how we think, act, and pursue goals. As we hit the year’s midpoint, focus on upgrading your language and watch how it improves your state of being plus welcomes in new opportunities. 3 Key Takeaways: Elimi...
Send us a text Waist-deep in freezing water, questioning everything, I faced the brutal reality of the 2025 Spartan Death Race—72 hours of nonstop, unpredictable suffering. From bear encounters to barbed wire crawls and cement hauls, the experience shattered comfort and tested my mental limits far more than my physical ones. What I learned is simple but powerful: the body rarely gives out before the mind does, and most people quit not from fatigue, but from belief. This race wasn't about fini...
Send us a text Ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish, it's never enough? You're not alone. Ambition—that driving force behind achievement—can sometimes lead us into what I call "the unintentional abyss of ambition," where periods of stillness or rest become sources of self-criticism rather than rejuvenation. In this deeply personal episode, I share my own recent struggles with feeling insufficient despite evidence to the contrary. Drawing on Dr. Ben Hardy's powerful concept of "th...
Send us a text The sweet spot of human potential often lies just beyond where most people are willing to venture. What happens when we deliberately seek out our limits, not just to discover them but to push past them? This profound question sets the stage for my upcoming participation in the 2025 Spartan Death Race—one of the world's most extreme and unpredictable endurance challenges. My journey toward this event began in 2011 when, as a high school wrestler, I stumbled upon footage of part...
