In this episode of The Success Lift Podcast, host Brian Pannuzzo lays it all out for former athletes and anyone hungry to reclaim their edge. If you've ever caught yourself replaying old wins instead of chasing new ones, it's time for a mindset shift.

Drawing from his journey as a St. Michael's College Hall of Fame inductee turned performance coach, Brian breaks down how to stop living in your highlight reel and start building your next championship run in business, health, and life. He shares raw lessons on letting go of the past, creating systems that drive results, and staying accountable when the crowd's gone silent.

This episode isn't about nostalgia—it's about ownership, growth, and playing the ultimate game: life itself.

 


 

🔑 Topics Covered:
✅ Why clinging to past glory keeps you stuck and how to break free
✅ How ex-athletes can turn discipline and drive into unstoppable momentum
✅ The power of structure, support systems, and accountability in your comeback
✅ How to find purpose when the scoreboard changes
✅ Why having a coach isn't a weakness. It's your greatest advantage
✅ The mindset shift that turns "I used to be…" into "I'm just getting started."

 


 

🎧 Tune in and learn how to rebuild your body, refocus your mind, and reignite your competitive fire—without sacrificing your career or family in the process.
