From High Achiever to Authentic Leader: The Path Beyond Performance | Tripp Lanier
Description
Tripp Lanier is the author of "This Book Will Make You Dangerous" and host of The New Man podcast, which has garnered millions of downloads. He coaches high-achieving men—from small business owners to startup founders to Navy SEALs—helping them escape the rat race and build meaningful careers aligned with their authentic selves. Tripp lives a quiet, simple life with his wife and daughter near the beach in North Carolina.
In this episode, we explore:
- The "finish line" trap - Why successful men often feel empty despite achieving their goals and how the "religion of careers" keeps them stuck in unfulfilling patterns
- Moving from performance to essence - The critical shift from asking "who am I?" to "who am I really?" and how to shed the false identities that no longer serve you
- Fear, integrity, and taking up space - How catastrophic thinking paralyzes high achievers, the importance of developing relationship skills, and what it means to live with true integrity
- From purpose to meaning - The evolution from self-focused achievement to generative contribution, and why meaning trumps purpose in the second half of life
