Faith, Family, and Building an Unshakable Legacy
What’s the secret to building a family, a business, and a life that actually lasts? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Willie and Korie Robertson—founders of the Duck Dynasty legacy and one of the most faith-driven families in America—to talk about what it really takes to stay grounded in success, marriage, and purpose. You’ve seen the fame, the show, and the empire, but today you’re going to hear the heart behind it all—the values, struggles, and faith that have held it together.
Willie and Korie open up about what it’s like to build a business as a family and why their faith has always been the cornerstone of everything they do. We get real about what it means to raise kids with character in a culture that’s lost its way, and why success without strong values will never be sustainable. They share how fame tested their foundation, how they stayed united through challenges, and why keeping God at the center of every decision changed everything.
We also talk about marriage—the hard parts, not just the highlight reel. Willie and Korie reveal how they’ve navigated seasons of conflict, learned to communicate through differences, and kept their relationship alive in the middle of raising a big family and running multiple businesses. There’s real wisdom here on what it takes to build a marriage that’s unshakable, not because it’s perfect, but because it’s rooted in grace and growth.
This conversation isn’t just about Duck Dynasty—it’s about what it means to lead with conviction, love deeply, and leave a legacy that outlives you. Whether you’re building a business, leading a family, or trying to figure out your next chapter, this episode is a masterclass on faith, vision, and perseverance. The Robertsons remind us that you can have both success and peace if you’re willing to build on the right foundation.
Key Takeaways:
Why faith is the cornerstone of the Robertson family’s success
How to stay grounded when fame and pressure hit
The keys to building a marriage that lasts through every season
What it takes to raise strong, values-driven kids in today’s world
How to build a business and a legacy that honor God and serve others
If you’ve ever wondered how to build something that truly matters—something that lasts beyond the spotlight—this conversation will show you the way.

The Habits That Shape Your Destiny
What if the life you’re living right now is nothing more than a reflection of your habits—both the ones serving you and the ones sabotaging you? In this powerful mashup, I sit down with three of the sharpest minds in the world—Charles Duhigg, Coach Mike Bayer, and James Clear—to uncover the truth about habits, identity, and the small, daily choices that create extraordinary outcomes.
Charles Duhigg, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Power of Habit, breaks down how every habit runs on a simple loop—cue, routine, reward—and how you can rewire even your most stubborn patterns. He shares the golden rule of habit change and why being in control doesn’t mean eliminating a behavior, but transforming it into something that serves you.
Coach Mike Bayer takes us deep into his concept of living as your “Best Self.” In this conversation, I share my own best self exercise—Superman—and my anti-self—Richard Cabeza. We talk about how naming these identities can give you clarity, courage, and even humor in the middle of stress. This isn’t just theory; it’s a practical, life-changing tool you can use today with your family, your work, and yourself.
Then James Clear, the author of Atomic Habits, drives it home with his groundbreaking philosophy: success isn’t about massive leaps, it’s about getting just 1% better every day. He explains the compounding effect of small improvements, why identity-based habits are the most powerful, and how the two-minute rule can help you master the art of showing up.
Every one of these conversations points back to one undeniable truth: you don’t rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your habits. But the great news is—you can change them, starting today.
Key Takeaways:
How to use the “cue-routine-reward” loop to rewire habits that no longer serve you (Charles Duhigg)
Why naming your Best Self and your Anti-Self can instantly shift your mindset (Coach Mike Bayer)
The compounding power of small improvements: why 1% better every day is life-changing (James Clear)
Why habits aren’t just actions—they’re votes for your identity and future self
The danger of stopping the very habits that created your success—and how to upgrade them instead
Your destiny isn’t shaped by what you do once—it’s forged in what you do daily. The smallest change can set you on the path to the biggest transformation of your life.

A Legendary Life of Faith, Family, and Laughter with Jeff Foxworthy (Part 2)
What if the very things the world tells you will make you happy—fame, wealth, recognition—turn out to be the biggest illusions of all? In this powerful continuation of my conversation with Jeff Foxworthy, one of the most successful comedians of all time, we go beyond the laughs to uncover the faith, humility, and life lessons that have shaped the man behind the jokes.
In Part 1, Jeff opened up about his childhood, the pain of an absent father, and how comedy became both a calling and a gift from God. In Part 2, we go even deeper. Jeff reveals what it felt like to stand terrified behind the curtain of The Tonight Show moments before Johnny Carson called him to the stage—and how that leap of faith launched his career. He shares stories of living as the “underdog,” being mentored by Chick-fil-A founder Truett Cathy, and why he believes encouragement is one of the most powerful forces in the world.
But what struck me most is Jeff’s unwavering commitment to living out his faith. From ministering to the homeless community, to teaching his children and grandchildren that kindness and effort matter more than status, Jeff shows us what it means to use your platform for purpose. This conversation is full of wisdom about letting go of control, trusting God’s plan, and remembering that our true identity is not in what we do, but in who we are as children of God.
This is one of those rare interviews that’s both deeply moving and practical. Jeff talks about how to discover and honor the gifts you’ve been given, why you don’t need to be 100% ready to take a leap, and how suffering can become the soil where your greatest impact is born. I promise you—this episode will stay with you long after it ends.
Key Takeaways:
Why you’ll never feel 100% “ready”—and why you need to jump anyway
How childhood wounds can become seeds of compassion and service
The secret to storytelling and connection that made Jeff a comedy legend
Why encouragement is one of the most underrated superpowers you can give away
How to let go, surrender control, and live with unshakable faith
This conversation isn’t just about comedy—it’s about courage, calling, and living a life of eternal impact. Don’t miss it.

Stop Chasing Balance—Start Living Fully
What if the very thing you’ve been chasing—work-life balance—is actually keeping you stuck, frustrated, and unfulfilled? In this mashup episode, I dive deep into one of the most misunderstood ideas in personal growth and reveal the truth: balance is a myth, and the pursuit of it may be costing you the joy, presence, and fulfillment you’re searching for.
I share the real key to creating a life you love—presence. Whether I’m running multiple businesses, spending time with my family, or in the gym, I’ve learned that the quality of my life isn’t about balancing it all perfectly. It’s about being fully present in the moment I’m in. When I walk through my front door, my phone stays in the car so my family knows they are my top priority. When I’m in business, I’m locked in. When I’m in prayer or observing God’s beauty, I’m all there.
You’ll also hear about one of the greatest superpowers you can cultivate: becoming an observer of your own life. From holding a hug just a few seconds longer, to noticing the details of a leaf, to truly seeing the people around you—these small acts of observation expand your gratitude, your self-awareness, and your ability to connect deeply with others. And connection is the gateway to influence, impact, and true joy.
Finally, I break down the path to lasting fulfillment. Happiness isn’t about money, titles, or things—it’s about finding your calling, your mission, your crusade. Sometimes that’s your career. Sometimes it’s a side cause or a mission that has nothing to do with your job. But it always involves your unique gifts, and it always involves serving others. Wealth, when built on this foundation, gives you the freedom to spend your time on what matters most. That’s where fulfillment lives.
Key Takeaways from this episode:
Why “work-life balance” is a fallacy—and what to pursue instead
The game-changing habit of being fully present in every moment
How observation unlocks gratitude, self-awareness, and influence
Why your calling doesn’t always have to be your career
The true pathway to fulfillment: using your gifts to serve others
How wealth, when built on purpose, creates ultimate freedom
This conversation is not just about living “balanced”—it’s about living maxed out.

What happens when one of the greatest comedians of our generation sits down to share not just laughs—but the wisdom, faith, and life lessons behind his journey? This conversation with Jeff Foxworthy is more than an interview—it’s a masterclass on humility, purpose, and what truly lasts.
Jeff is known as the best-selling comedy recording artist of all time, with a career that has spanned decades on stage, television, and beyond. But in this conversation, you’ll meet the man behind the jokes. Jeff opens up about his roots, the pain of growing up with an absent father, and how those experiences shaped his commitment to family and faith. He shares how comedy wasn’t just a career—it was a God-given gift, one he’s worked to steward faithfully over the years.
What moved me most about Jeff isn’t just his success, but his perspective on identity and legacy. He reminds us that what you do isn’t who you are. Fame, wealth, and achievements all fade, but character, kindness, and faith endure. As Jeff puts it, attaching your worth to temporary things—whether beauty, muscles, or material success—will rob you of lasting joy. True identity comes from something eternal.
This episode is full of wisdom for the next generation. We talk about living with humility, the danger of bitterness, and why forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. Jeff’s reflections are as real and grounded as they are inspiring, and they’ll leave you evaluating your own life, not by what you’ve achieved, but by the legacy you’re building for those who come after you.
This is one of those rare conversations that’s bigger than entertainment—it’s about faith, purpose, and the timeless lessons that outlive us all. If you’ve ever wondered how to stay grounded in success, how to pass on wisdom to your children, or how to live a life that matters long after you’re gone, you’ll want to lean into every moment.
Key Takeaways:
Why your identity should never be tied to temporary success or circumstances
The power of seeing your gifts as a responsibility, not an entitlement
How childhood wounds can become fuel for building stronger families
Why forgiveness and humility are central to living a free and fulfilled life
How to think generationally and leave a lasting legacy of faith and purpose
This isn’t just an interview; it’s a legacy conversation. Jeff’s words will make you laugh, make you reflect, and make you think about the story you’re writing with your own life. And the best part? This is just the beginning. Stay tuned—Part 2 of my interview with Jeff Foxworthy is coming soon.

What Kind of Legacy Will You Leave?
Most of us are working hard to build our businesses, provide for our families, and maybe even create a little security for the future. But what if the bigger question isn’t about what you leave behind—it’s about what you set in motion?
In this conversation with David Green, founder of Hobby Lobby, and Bill High, CEO of The Legacy Stone, we get real about what it takes to live and lead with eternity in mind. These two men are not just business leaders who’ve created billions in value and impact—they’re men who have chosen to orient their lives around family, faith, and generational change. And trust me, the way they’ve done it will challenge you to rethink everything you thought success was supposed to look like.
David opens up about starting Hobby Lobby with just a $600 loan and how his focus wasn’t on “exit strategies” or building wealth for wealth’s sake, but on being faithful day by day. Bill shares how losing his father at 12 shaped his entire understanding of legacy—and why waiting until “someday” to invest in your family is a mistake you can’t afford to make. Together, they break down practical principles like creating a family vision, crafting a code of conduct, and the power of storytelling to pass down values for generations.
This conversation hit me hard on a personal level. I shared how my own father made one decision to get sober when I was 15, and how that single choice altered the course of my family forever. These stories are proof that it’s never too late to change the trajectory of your life—or your family’s future. Whether you’re a CEO, an entrepreneur, or just someone trying to be more present with your loved ones, you’re going to walk away from this episode with clarity on what matters most.
If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s possible to succeed in business without losing sight of your family or your faith, this interview is living proof that you can. And not just that—you must.
Key Takeaways:
Why legacy isn’t just about what you leave behind, but what you set in motion
How to create a family vision, mission, and code of conduct that lasts for generations
The power of storytelling to instill values in your children and grandchildren
Why financial success alone is never the true measure of wealth
How one small, faithful decision can change your family’s trajectory forever
This isn’t just a business conversation—it’s a life conversation. One that will inspire you to think bigger, live with intention, and build something that outlasts you.

The Real Secret Behind Success That Nobody Talks About
What if success wasn’t about talent, luck, or even hard work—but about who you become in the process? In this mashup, I bring together three powerhouse voices—Jay “Jeezy” Jenkins, Maria Shriver, and Percy “Master P” Miller—to reveal the truth about success that most people overlook. These aren’t theories. These are battle-tested lessons born from pain, reinvention, and the courage to carve your own lane when the world tells you it’s impossible.
Jeezy takes us inside the moment he left the streets behind to bet it all on music—and how life’s hardest hits, from losing his voice to battling Bell’s palsy, forced him to confront who he really was. His story is a raw reminder that success isn’t about avoiding setbacks, but about finding strength and faith in the middle of them.
Maria Shriver opens up about growing up in a legendary family where confidence wasn’t inherited—it had to be earned . She shares the lessons she’s learned about self-worth, identity, and how breaking free from old beliefs can open the door to your true calling . Her honesty is a masterclass in building a life not defined by other people’s expectations, but by your own truth.
And then there’s Master P—an icon who turned “No Limit” from a mindset into a movement. From selling music out of his trunk to building generational wealth, he breaks down why consistency beats talent, why faith without work is dead, and why not all money is good money . His wisdom on integrity, entrepreneurship, and refusing to accept “headache money” will challenge you to raise your standards in life and business .
Every story in this episode points back to one truth: Success isn’t what you think. It’s not a destination, a bank account, or a title. It’s about transformation—becoming your “other self” on the other side of adversity . And that’s a secret most people will never understand.
Key Takeaways:
Why the hardest seasons of your life are preparing you for your “other self.”
How Jeezy rebuilt his life by walking away from the streets and facing failure head-on.
Maria Shriver’s powerful perspective on earning self-confidence and breaking free from limiting beliefs.
Master P’s blueprint for entrepreneurship: consistency, faith, and turning down “headache money.”
Why success is less about what you get and more about who you become.
This is one of those episodes you’ll want to play more than once, because the wisdom in it doesn’t just inspire—it transforms.

Why Who You Surround Yourself With Will Make—or Break—Your Life
In this mashup episode, I sit down with my brother Andy Frisella to unpack one of the most powerful truths about success: your environment dictates your elevation. Who you allow into your circle will determine how far you go, how big you dream, and how much you grow. If you’re serious about reaching the next level in your life, this conversation is going to hit home.
Andy brings his raw, no-excuses approach to growth, and together we break down why surrounding yourself with the right people is the ultimate game-changer. From business to relationships to personal development, we dive into how your inner circle can either fuel your vision or drain it. Andy shares the hard lessons he’s learned about cutting ties with negativity, choosing mentors who stretch you, and building a tribe that forces you to elevate instead of settle.
This episode isn’t just about “networking.” It’s about choosing proximity on purpose. It’s about realizing that average environments create average outcomes—and if you want an extraordinary life, you need extraordinary people around you. Andy and I reveal how to identify who belongs in your circle, who doesn’t, and the kind of habits and standards that keep your group sharp, hungry, and aligned with greatness.
I want you to finish this episode with clarity and conviction about the company you keep. Because if you want to change your life, the fastest and most effective way is to change your circle. Who you surround yourself with will either multiply your growth—or keep you stuck.

It Takes Leaders with Vision to Help People with Dreams
Have you ever stopped to remember that every single person you meet has a dream? Some of those dreams are massive—building companies, creating wealth, impacting millions of people. And some are simple but just as powerful—a dream for peace, joy, or to be truly happy again. In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the most important truths I’ve ever learned: it takes leaders with vision to help people with dreams.
I share how your love—love for your family, your spouse, your children, your team—has to be greater than your fear, your adversity, or your obstacles. Because if you’re not attaching your vision to something bigger than yourself, it’s too easy to quit. I walk you through the difference between being motivational, inspirational, and aspirational—and why only one of these creates lasting transformation.
We talk about the role of vision in leadership, not just in business, but in your home and in your own life. Whether you’re leading a company, raising a family, or leading yourself, your job is to sell the dream—again and again—until everyone around you can see what you see. And here’s the key: it can’t just be words. You have to validate that vision with massive action so others know it’s real.
I share how leaders from Jesus to Martin Luther King Jr. to Steve Jobs created movements because they didn’t just speak dreams, they embodied them. And I give you a roadmap for becoming that kind of leader—the kind whose love and vision make them unstoppable. Because the truth is, your dream isn’t just about you. It’s about the people whose lives you’re meant to change when you finally step into your calling.
Key Takeaways:
Why every person you meet carries a dream in their heart
The difference between being motivational, inspirational, and aspirational
How to attach your love to your vision so obstacles can’t stop you
The importance of repeatedly “selling the dream” in your family, business, and life
Why your actions must validate your vision if you want to inspire others
Your dream is waiting—and so are the people counting on you to lead them. Let’s rise together. Max out.

How Do You Keep Going When Life Hits You Twice?
Today’s guest, Austin Hatch, is a living, breathing miracle—and one of the most inspiring men I’ve ever had the privilege to sit across from. Austin survived not one, but two plane crashes. The first claimed the lives of his mother and siblings. The second, just eight years later, took his father and stepmother and left Austin in a coma, fighting for his life. Yet somehow, against all odds, he not only survived—he found a way to thrive.
In this conversation, Austin and I go deep into what it takes to get back up when life knocks you down harder than you ever thought possible. He shares how he rebuilt his body, his faith, and his identity after losing almost everything—and why gratitude, not bitterness, became his anchor. Austin’s story is not about avoiding pain; it’s about choosing purpose through it, believing that God can still write a story of victory even when tragedy has stolen so much.
We talk about what it means to carry grief without letting it define you, to forgive life for what it’s taken, and to find meaning in the middle of unimaginable suffering. Austin’s journey to eventually fulfill his dream of playing basketball for the University of Michigan is a testament to what happens when resilience meets faith.
This episode is about more than survival—it’s about transformation. If you’ve ever wondered whether you can rise again after devastation, Austin’s story is living proof that you can.
Key Takeaways:
How Austin survived two plane crashes and found the will to rebuild his life
Why gratitude—not bitterness—became his greatest weapon against despair
The role faith plays in turning unimaginable tragedy into testimony
What it means to carry grief without being defined by it
How to keep moving toward your dreams even when everything says it’s over

The Unstoppable Power of Resilience: How to Rise Above Every Obstacle
What does it really take to keep moving forward when life feels impossible? In this mashup episode, I bring you the raw, unfiltered stories of Nick Vujicic, Colin O’Brady, Danny Lee Clark, and James Lawrence—four individuals who have redefined what it means to push past pain, doubt, and impossibility. These are men who didn’t just talk about perseverance—they lived it, they bled for it, and they came out the other side with lessons that will inspire you to never back down.
Nick Vujicic, born without arms or legs, shares how faith, gratitude, and service transformed his life from despair to impacting millions across the globe. Colin O’Brady takes us inside the mindset that allowed him to cross Antarctica solo, proving that the limits we face are often the ones we place on ourselves. Danny Lee Clark—best known as “Nitro” from American Gladiators—opens up about his battles both in the arena and in life, showing how purpose and passion can keep you fighting long after most would quit. And James Lawrence, the “Iron Cowboy,” reveals what it took to complete 100 triathlons in 100 consecutive days, teaching us all the power of adaptation, grit, and unshakable belief in what’s possible.
Each of these stories is a reminder that adversity doesn’t disqualify you—it equips you. These men show us that struggle isn’t a sign of weakness, but the very soil where strength, character, and resilience are grown. They prove that pain can become purpose, and setbacks can become the setup for the greatest comeback of your life.
I want you to walk away from this episode with the conviction that no matter where you are, no matter what you’re facing, you already have what it takes to rise. It’s not about avoiding obstacles—it’s about facing them head-on, learning, adapting, and choosing to keep going when everything in you wants to stop.
Key Takeaways:
Nick Vujicic on choosing gratitude and faith over despair, even when life feels impossible
Colin O’Brady’s mental strategies for pushing through isolation, fear, and physical limits
Danny Lee Clark’s powerful reminder that passion and purpose fuel perseverance
James Lawrence’s lesson on adaptation: why the mind can carry you when the body wants to quit
How to turn pain into purpose and setbacks into fuel for growth
Why resilience is not about never falling—but about always getting back up
This episode is a masterclass in grit, faith, and the unstoppable spirit of the human heart.

Raise Your Identity, Raise Your Life
Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work, life somehow snaps you back to the same level—like there’s an invisible ceiling holding you down? That ceiling is your identity. In this episode, I break down why your identity is the thermostat of your life—the unseen regulator that determines how much success, love, happiness, and fulfillment you’ll allow yourself to experience.
I’ll walk you through what I call the “holy trilogy” of raising your identity: faith, intention, and association. These three elements are the most powerful levers you can pull if you want to raise the temperature of your life and start living at a higher level. I share how my faith has been the foundation that allows me to walk with confidence, why giving yourself credit for your intentions can immediately increase your self-worth, and how surrounding yourself with the right people can elevate you beyond what you ever thought possible.
This conversation isn’t just about theory—it’s about practical action. I’ll show you how to evaluate the people you spend the most time with, why emotional maturity is the hidden trait you need to look for, and how to separate yourself from associations that lower your identity. More importantly, you’ll learn how to step into the character you were born to play—the version of you that God created to do something meaningful and great in this world.
You weren’t put here to live small. You were born to contribute, to grow, and to impact others in ways both big and small. And the key to unlocking that life isn’t out there somewhere—it’s already inside you, waiting to be raised.

What if the key to healing isn’t just physical—but spiritual, emotional, and mental too?
In this powerful conversation with my friend Dr. Josh Axe, we dive into what true health really means—and it goes way beyond diet and exercise. Josh has helped millions of people worldwide reclaim their health, but what I love most about him is that he’s not afraid to connect the dots between your body, your mind, and your faith. We talk about how the struggles you face in your health often mirror the struggles in your spirit and why healing starts from the inside out.
Josh opens up about his own journey—the heartbreak of watching his mom battle illness, the setbacks he faced building his career, and the doubts he had to fight through to stay on his calling. What came out of those seasons wasn’t just knowledge—it was wisdom. And today, he’s sharing that wisdom with us in a way that will completely change how you think about your own health.
We also talk about why so many people chase quick fixes and end up more broken than before. Josh and I break down how to build rhythms in your life that actually last—from the food you eat, to the way you handle stress, to the faith practices that keep you anchored. This is about creating alignment in every part of who you are so you can operate at your best.
If you’ve been frustrated with your health, if you’ve been carrying stress or pain that feels heavier than it should, or if you’ve been asking God for healing but not sure where to start—this conversation is going to give you clarity, hope, and practical steps forward.
Key Takeaways:
Why true healing requires more than just treating symptoms
The connection between faith, mindset, and physical health
Josh’s personal story of loss, resilience, and calling
How to break free from the cycle of quick fixes and create lasting change
The daily habits that will fuel your body, mind, and spirit
This isn’t just about living longer—it’s about living better. Lean in, because this one can shift the way you see health forever.

If You’re Not Growing, You’re Falling Behind—Here’s How to Stay Ahead
In this mashup episode, I sit down with Stephen Scoggins and JP Sears to uncover the raw truth about what it really takes to keep evolving in life and leadership. Because here’s the reality: if you’re not growing, you’re dying. The world isn’t slowing down for anyone, and staying the same is no longer an option. Growth is the only path forward.
Stephen Scoggins shares his powerful journey of transformation—from rock bottom moments to building a life of impact—and the systems he’s created to help others break through their limitations. His story is living proof that growth is never about where you start, but about the choices you make daily to rise above the excuses that hold most people back. JP Sears brings his unique mix of humor and depth to challenge us on another level—reminding us that personal growth isn’t just about strategy and hustle, but also about truth, authenticity, and the courage to step into who you really are, even when it’s uncomfortable.
What ties these conversations together is the undeniable fact that growth requires discomfort. Whether it’s building discipline, confronting your fears, or choosing to face hard truths, staying ahead means being willing to grow when others shrink back. These stories will inspire you, but more importantly, they’ll equip you with practical steps to expand your mindset, deepen your resilience, and unlock your highest potential.
I want you to walk away from this episode knowing this: the gap between where you are and where you want to be isn’t as wide as you think. Growth is available to you right now—if you’re willing to lean in and do the work.
Key Takeaways:
- Why growth is the only path forward in an ever-changing world
- Stephen Scoggins’ blueprint for breaking free from limitations and building systems for success
- JP Sears on blending truth and humor to inspire authentic transformation
- Why discomfort is the greatest indicator you’re on the right path
- The daily choices that separate those who evolve from those who stay stuck
- How to create sustainable momentum toward your highest self
This conversation is about more than just success—it’s about staying alive, awake, and ahead in every area of your life.

You Are More Qualified Than You Think
Have you ever felt like your past disqualified you from living the life of your dreams? Maybe it was a failure, a setback, or even a season of just being “average” that made you believe you weren’t enough. In this episode, I want to shatter that lie once and for all. Because the truth is, those very experiences you think disqualify you are actually what qualify you most to make a difference—in your own life and in the lives of others.
I share a deeply personal story about my dad, a man who overcame addiction and transformed his life. And what struck me years later was this—he didn’t do it alone. Someone, in one of his lowest moments, stepped in and helped him. That act of grace created a ripple effect that changed my dad’s life, my life, and now millions of others. The lesson? You are most qualified to help the person you used to be.
In this episode, I’ll show you why your scars, mistakes, and setbacks are not your disqualifications—they’re your credentials. When you embrace your imperfections, you don’t just inspire others, you connect with them in the deepest way. And every time you grow, you expand your capacity to reach back and lift someone else up.
This is not just about believing in yourself—it’s about believing that your story has the power to create ripple effects you may never fully see. Today, I’m asking you to stop holding your past against yourself and instead use it as proof that you are more than capable. Because the moment you decide you’re qualified, your destiny changes.
Key Takeaways:
Why your past failures and mistakes actually qualify you for greatness
How to reframe setbacks as preparation for your purpose
The ripple effect of helping “the person you used to be”
Why sharing your imperfections connects you more deeply than projecting perfection
The decision that instantly shifts your destiny: believing you are qualified
Your past isn’t a prison—it’s a platform. And today, it’s time to step into the life you were born to live. Max out.

How to Lead When Everything Falls Apart
What happens when the bottom drops out—when the game you’ve built your identity on slips away, when your performance defines your worth, and suddenly, it's all gone? My guest today, Jim Murphy, knows precisely what that feels like. As a former outfielder in the Chicago Cubs organization, Jim’s identity—and his life—revolved around how he performed on the field. When he confronted his own fear of failure and the collapse of that dream, he didn’t bail—he embarked on a journey that led him into sports psychology and ultimately to revolutionize how high performers train their heart under pressure. And in this episode, we go deep into what it takes to rebuild when your identity is shattered and discover excellence fused with peace.
Jim and I talk about what it’s like to go through failure that feels public, permanent, and personal. He shares what it took to confront the shame, rebuild from the ground up, and discover that leadership isn’t about titles or trophies—it’s about who you are when everything else is stripped away. His story is raw and real, but it’s also filled with hope.
We dive into the mindset shifts that kept him going when most people would’ve quit, and how he found a deeper purpose on the other side of loss. Jim doesn’t sugarcoat the process—he’s honest about the mistakes, the doubts, and the long road back. But through it all, he shows us that true greatness isn’t found in the spotlight. It’s forged in the shadows, in the moments when no one’s watching, and you still choose to rise.
If you’ve ever faced a setback that felt too heavy to carry, or wondered how to lead when you don’t feel like you’ve got anything left to give, this conversation will remind you that failure isn’t final. It’s often the very soil where your greatest calling starts to grow.
Key Takeaways:
Why leadership is revealed in failure, not just success
How to confront shame and rebuild your confidence after loss
The mindset shifts that allow you to rise when life knocks you down
Why titles and achievements will never define true leadership
How to find your deeper purpose in the middle of setbacks
This isn’t just about bouncing back—it’s about becoming someone stronger, wiser, and more impactful because of the storm. Lean in, and let Jim’s story remind you what it means to lead when it matters most.

The Road Less Traveled: Why Struggle Means You’re on the Right Path
If everybody around you is cheering you on, chances are… you’re not playing big enough. The truth is, the journey to greatness isn’t supposed to feel comfortable. It’s filled with resistance, rejection, doubt, and moments of deep loneliness. And as painful as that can feel, those are actually the signs you’re on the right road—the road less traveled, the road to freedom, and the road to becoming the person you were born to be.In this episode, I break down what it really looks like to pursue success—not the highlight reel you see on social media, but the real, gritty, lonely process that comes with choosing to live differently. I share why feelings like fear, anxiety, rejection, and even isolation are not signs you’re failing, but green lights that you’re moving in the right direction. When you feel like giving up, when the yield signs in life tempt you to take the easy path, that’s the exact moment you have to decide: I will not yield.I also tell one of the most powerful stories from my own life—how years of setbacks, rejection, and persistence led to a miracle I never saw coming: helping my sister regain her vision. That moment reminded me that staying the course on the road less traveled doesn’t just change your life—it creates ripple effects you can’t even imagine for the people you love.This conversation is about more than chasing your dreams. It’s about recognizing that the pain, doubt, and struggle you’re experiencing are proof that you’re in the right place. And if you stay on that road—committed, serving others, and refusing to yield—you will not only achieve your dreams, but unlock blessings and opportunities far beyond anything you could picture today.Key Takeaways:
• Why rejection, fear, and isolation are actually signs you’re on the right road• The difference between the crowded, comfortable path and the road less traveled• Why commitment creates freedom—not bondage—in your life• The role of service in lighting the path when the road feels dark• A powerful personal story of how persistence led to a miracle for my sister• How staying the course opens doors to dreams you can’t even imagine yetYou were born for something great. Don’t yield. Stay on the road less traveled—because that’s where the miracles live. Max out.

What If Failing Was the Best Thing That Could Happen to You?
In this powerful conversation with Ryan Leak, we dive into one of the most misunderstood truths about success: failure isn’t the end—it’s the beginning. Ryan is a best-selling author, speaker, and executive coach who’s made a career out of helping people reframe failure as the very path to greatness. And in this episode, he breaks down why most of us are playing it too safe, avoiding the very thing that could unlock our next level.
Ryan opens up about his own journey, including the doubts and fears he had to walk through to get where he is today. We talk about what it feels like to take risks when everyone’s watching, how to silence the inner critic that says you’re not enough, and why your willingness to fail may be the single most important indicator of your future success.
What I love about Ryan is that he doesn’t just talk theory—he lives this stuff. He shares how writing books, building a business, and coaching leaders all started with moments where failure seemed inevitable. And yet, by leaning in instead of running away, he discovered opportunities that never would’ve shown up otherwise.
If you’ve been holding back, waiting until you feel “ready,” or letting fear of failure keep you small, this episode will set you free. Ryan’s wisdom will challenge the way you see setbacks, redefine what winning really looks like, and remind you that courage always comes before confidence.
Key Takeaways:
Why failure is often the best teacher for growth and innovation
How to quiet the inner critic and reframe self-doubt
The difference between failing and being a failure
Why confidence is a result of courage, not a prerequisite for it
Practical steps to start taking bigger risks without being paralyzed by fear
You don’t need to wait until you’re fearless to take action. The truth is, the future belongs to those willing to fail forward. Listen in—you’ll never look at failure the same way again.
