The Leadership Advantage No One's Talking About Your mornings start with good intentions, but then, it's back-to-back meetings, lunch at your desk answering emails, fires to put out. You're busy all day, but you're not actually in flow or building momentum. By evening, you're exhausted, and the creative work that really matters is still waiting for you. But by then, your brain is already completely fried.  If you think this is just part of the job, think again. It's actually what happens when you're working against how your brain is naturally wired to function. For so many high-achieving leaders, the challenge isn't a lack of skill or drive — it's the invisible misalignment between how you're built to thrive & how you're actually working and living. In this episode of Impact with Ease, Blake Schofield explores what distinguishes transformational leaders in a world speeding toward automation/AI. Many of today's best leaders are secretly running on empty — not because they lack talent or discipline, but because they're leading against how humans are actually wired to thrive. You'll learn a fresh approach that goes beyond systems and tools, and instead focuses on aligning your inner wiring, beliefs, and environment — so you lead with ease, energy, and creativity. Whether you're a C-suite executive, leader, or individual high performer, this conversation will shift how you see burnout, leadership development, and the future of work. Episode Highlights Why Burnout Is Really About Misalignment  [02:30] - Why leaders don't burn out from doing too much  [03:15] - The three domains of performance: wiring, beliefs, environment  [04:00] - How misalignment steals energy, clarity & creativity   Your Internal Operating System  [05:15] - How most leaders work against their natural strengths  [06:30] - Understanding conation & your unique method of operation  [08:00] - Real example: How Blake's wiring as an innovator shaped her leadership style   The Subconscious Rules Running the Show  [11:30] - How subconscious beliefs undermine your best efforts  [12:45] - Why high achievers equate busyness with worth  [13:30] - Client story: Michelle's transformation from perfectionism to confidence   Environment — When Systems Sabotage Success  [15:00] - Why the wrong environment drains you, even when you "know better"  [16:15] - How to optimize human performance through alignment  [17:00] - The ripple effect: team dynamics & organizational impact   Powerful Quotes "Burnout is not about working too hard or too long. It's a chronic misalignment between how you're wired to thrive and how you're actually leading and living." —Blake Schofield "I went from going through the motions and feeling invisible to becoming the kind of leader I've always aspired to be. This program helped me reconnect to the passion I have for business and leaders." —Robin, client "I wish I'd met you 20 years ago. What you have done for me personally outweighs any career or financial gain I could have gotten through this program. I came in thinking the career was a holy grail and you were going to fix my career. But really you fixed me." —Michelle, C-suite leader   Resources Mentioned Kathy Kolbe > http://www.kolbe.com/aboutUs/kathy-kolbe.cfm Conation > http://www.kolbe.com/theKolbeConcept/what-is-conation.cfm   Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

Before credit checks, down payments, or Zillow searches — the first step is deciding. In this kickoff to the 10-step Homebuying 101 series, David Sidoni breaks down the mindset every first-time homebuyer must have before any of the practical steps even matter. If you've been stuck renting, overwhelmed by myths, or waiting for “the right time,” this episode will change how you see yourself — and your ability to buy a home.SynopsisMost people think the first step to buying a home is financial — checking credit, saving money, or finding a realtor. But that's not where it starts. The first step is mental: deciding you're ready to take control of your future.David Sidoni, founder of How to Buy a Home, reveals why every first-time homebuyer's journey begins with a decision — a mindset shift that transforms fear into action. He exposes the biggest myths keeping renters stuck, from “you need 20% down” to “you can't buy with student loans,” and replaces them with real numbers, data, and proof from thousands of successful buyers.Listeners learn that education is the antidote to fear. Sidoni shows that understanding the process, not having perfect finances, is what separates dreamers from doers. Backed by six years of data, he proves that 72% of people who thought they were a year away from buying discovered they were ready far sooner — once they made the decision to start.By the end, this isn't just about houses or mortgages — it's about finally believing you can stop renting forever.Quote“Step one is decide — because none of the other nine steps mean a damn thing if you don't make that choice first.”— David Sidoni, How to Buy a Home PodcastHighlightsThe true first step isn't financial — it's mental. Deciding to move forward changes everything.Myth-busting the biggest fears: You don't need 20% down, a six-figure income, or perfect credit to buy.Mindset = momentum. Confidence comes from education, not from already knowing everything.Proven data: 72% of buyers who thought they were a year away discovered they could buy much sooner.Clarity before chaos. The 10 steps give you a system so you can stop guessing and start planning.Empathy and empowerment. David helps first-time buyers understand that fear isn't failure — it's just lack of information.Referenced Episodes388 - The Playbook VOL. 1 - The Rent Replacement Strategy389 - The Playbook VOL. 2: Your Last Lease Ever382 - 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift Pt 1: Rates383 - 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift Pt 2: Sales, Inventory & Affordability384 - 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift Pt 3: Rent Math & Buying Power98 - Time for A New Game Plan To Buy Your First Home – My Story355 - Real Answers Pt 4: Should I Rent or Buy in 2025?OFFICIAL 2025 EPISODE GUIDEConnect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

In today's powerful episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros expose the raw truth about effort, expectations, and the lie most people tell themselves about wanting “more.” They break down why chasing level-10 results with level-5 effort will always leave you frustrated, and how being brutally honest about your goals can change everything. This isn't about balance, it's about alignment, ownership, and the courage to live by your own scale. Keep leveling up, press play, and own your scale.Learn more about:

What does it really take to lead through uncertainty, and turn life's disruptions into momentum? For Dr. Patrick Leddin, author, professor at Vanderbilt, former U.S. Army Ranger, and co‑author (with James Patterson) of Disrupt Everything, it started with a simple question: “Are you living a good life?” From elite military jumps to boardrooms and classrooms, Patrick maps how purpose, relationships, and the right roles help leaders navigate chaos and create impact. We unpacks the research behind “positive disruptors,” the five roles leaders can choose in any moment, and the practical moves that keep teams calm, clear, and effective when stakes are high.In this episode, you'll learn:

Have you ever noticed how your phone or computer slows down when it's been running for too long? Eventually, you get that “restart required” alert, and everything works better once you do a reboot. It's almost become a joke–if something isn't working properly, we just turn it off and turn it back on again. But that simple restart usually does the trick. A reset brings things back into alignment–and not just with technology, but in your life.A life reset is one of the most powerful ways to realign your life when you feel off balance. Whether it's a daily reset achieved through rest, or a deeper life change after you've been running on autopilot for too long, realigning will help you restore your peace, focus, and overall well-being.In this episode, we'll explore the signs that indicate it's time to pause and do a life reset, as well as what the actual process looks like. I'll guide you through questions to help you discover where things may be lacking or disconnected in your life, and how to close the gap between where you are and where you want to be.If this topic resonates and you want to dive in even deeper, I have two amazing opportunities coming up that will allow you to do so. I'm offering a live, 4-week Life Mastery Reset training, where we'll come together as a group to reset, realign, and shift the trajectory of your life, your peace, and what's possible for you. I'm also hosting the Deep Reset Retreat with Melanie Fay, and there are just a couple of spots left! It's going to be such a phenomenal experience, and I would love to support you there.Remember, needing a reset is not a failure. A life reset is an intentional recalibration–an essential part of life mastery and personal growth. As you notice where your life–or yourself–might need a little attention, I hope you honor that awareness and give yourself the gift of a reset.You can read the full show notes here.What you'll learn:Why it's normal for everyone to need a reset regularly or at certain points in life4 specific signs that can indicate you're due for a life resetHow constant stress and drained energy signal that it's time for a life changeHow to use the core four areas to identify where you may need to realign your lifeHow to recognize when you've lost clarity or your sense of purpose and what to do nextConnect with Molly ClaireJoin a 4-week Life Mastery Reset live training with Molly for just $27 (valued at 2k)!The Deep Reset Retreat: A Soulful Autumn Experience for Clarity, Healing, and Bold Self-Trust with Molly Claire and Melanie Fay: https://www.mollyclaire.com/retreat Get the book: She Rises: Insights and Wisdom from the Women of The Masterful Coach CollectiveMolly's Website:

In this episode, our returning guest expert (and favorite friend of the podcast!) Dr. Nacchi Felt joins us to unveil the brand-new Cycle of Accountability—the life-direction loop that helps ADHD brains point their power at the right targets.Inside the loop:Alignment — Name your values (think truth, responsibility, gratitude) so decisions stop feeling random.Accountability — Drop the “shoulds.” Hold yourself to what you care about.Attention — Your attention is your presence. Reclaim it as your birthright.Attachment — Safe relationships supercharge the loop and keep you present.But here's the deeper truth: safety and acceptance are the foundation that make this loop possible. Being “safe” means you can be fully seen and still contained—someone can sit with you in your hardest moments without pulling away. That's a rare experience for many ADHDers, and therapy or coaching can provide a version of that safety while you learn to build it yourself. From playful co-regulation with a child to a friend's honest reassurance, relationships that combine honesty and containment create fertile ground for growth. When you experience that kind of attachment, it not only soothes your nervous system—it also strengthens your alignment with your values and makes accountability feel natural, not forced.

When it comes to leading a team, there's no such thing as too much information.Good leadership is about good communication. And for General Stanley McChrystal, that means creating a culture of free-flowing information: “The goal is to have everyone know everything all the time,” he says.McChrystal is a retired four-star general, former commander of US and international forces in Afghanistan, and a renowned leadership expert. In his experience building cohesive teams in complex environments, he's discovered that successful teams are built on a “shared consciousness [where] all have a common contextual understanding of what the situation is.” The key to creating that kind of culture, he says, is radical transparency — from leaders and subordinates alike. Whatever your position, “You are responsible for informing other people of things that they need to know,” he says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, McChrystal and host Matt Abrahams discuss how to build shared consciousness within teams, how to communicate across cultural divides, and how to lead with clarity, context, and character.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:General Stanley McChrystalGeneral McChrystal's Books: On Character / Team of Teams155.

Clarity Is the Secret Weapon of Agile!We often mistake transparency for clarity. Transparency just means the information is available. Clarity means you can actually see. Clarity is not dumping everything on the table. It's making sense of it. It's vision. It's seeing...How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

In this episode, Swamiji continues his exploration of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 2, illuminating how Shree Krishna's teachings offer timeless clarity in today's age of digital overload. Listeners will discover how spiritual knowledge (jnana) and realized wisdom (vijnana) serve as anchors amidst the distractions of modern life, guiding us toward inner peace and divine connection.  Swamiji draws a compelling parallel between the Gita's wisdom and the need for a “digital detox,” urging seekers to turn inward and prioritize spiritual discernment over sensory stimulation. This episode offers practical insights on how to cultivate focus, deepen devotion, and experience God—not through information, but through transformation.  Building upon our previous episode about the twin keys of knowledge and devotion, this discussion deepens your understanding of how divine wisdom can be lived, not just learned. Tune in to enrich your journey through the Gita and elevate your quest for clarity, surrender, and spiritual fulfillment. 

In episode 112 of Going Forward, Eric Elliott is joined by Michael Scarpati, co-founder and CEO of RetireUS, to expose the hard truths behind financial planning today. From the myth of “set it and forget it” retirement accounts to the hidden toll of financial stress, he explains why doing nothing may be the most dangerous decision of all.Together, they unpack why 85% of financial professionals aren't required to act in your best interest, how trust in big-name institutions can leave families vulnerable, and why financial wellness is really a form of mental wellness. As Michael shares, financial stress doesn't stay in your bank account, it bleeds into your health, relationships, and leadership.Eric and Michael dive into how fintech is opening access for the 98%, how independent fiduciaries are reshaping trust, and why clarity with money is the key to leading with confidence in uncertain times.

No one is coming to save you. The moment you realize that is the moment you step into your true power as a leader. In this episode of Reflect Forward, I explore the life changing power of radical responsibility. As leaders, we all have moments when we wish someone else would fix the problem, make the decision, or show us the path forward. But waiting for someone to rescue us kills momentum. True leadership begins when we stop waiting and start owning. I talk about how to recognize when you have slipped into victim thinking, how to catch yourself in that moment, and how to reclaim your sense of agency. You will learn how to listen for the subtle signals that you are giving away your power, especially when you hear yourself saying “Yeah, but.” That phrase is the telltale sign that you have moved from ownership to avoidance. This episode will help you build the mindset of accountability and confidence that defines great leaders. It is about shifting from “Why will someone not fix this?” to “What is my next step?” and realizing that you already have everything you need to lead yourself and your team forward. As Winston Churchill once said, “The price of greatness is responsibility.” Taking ownership for your choices, your reactions, and your mindset is how you become the kind of leader others want to follow. Research backs this up. A McKinsey study found that companies with leaders who embrace ownership and accountability are 4.9 times more likely to outperform their peers in overall performance. Accountability is not just about personal growth; it is a competitive advantage. Key Takeaways 1. Ownership starts where excuses end. The moment you stop waiting for rescue, you start leading. 2. Catch your “yeah, but.” It is the red flag of victim thinking. Pause, reframe, and act. 3. Ask the three ownership questions: • What part of this situation can I own right now? • If no one else steps in, what is the best step I can take today? • Am I choosing to be a victim or the leader who changes it? 4. Clarity beats control. You cannot control circumstances, but you can always control your response. 5. Leaders go first. When you model accountability, you build a culture that owns results. Mic Drop Moments • “No one is coming to save you. The moment you realize that is the moment you step into your true power as a leader.” • “Leadership begins when we stop waiting and start owning.” • “If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you would not sit for a month.” — Theodore Roosevelt • “You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself.” — Jim Rohn If this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who needs this reminder.

We all know the saying and the truth of how much we judge a book by its cover. I feel it is a dramatic metaphor for much of humanity. And I don't minimize it either. I feel it's our responsibility to address our “book covers.” I feel we are in a culture that gives a lot of attention to physical aesthetics. Whether it's how we look or the car we drive or the phone we have and clothes we wear and on and on. But I amaze myself with what seems a stark lack of attention to what's behind the physical accouterments. A big one is how we talk. How we communicate. My guest is communication expert, Michael Chad Hoeppner. Michael is an adjunct professor at Columbia Business School and the CEO and president of GK Training, a firm dedicated to giving individuals and organizations better communication skills. He is a speaking coach to…a long list of incredibly impressive people and organizations. Michael is alone a leader among a growing chorus of voices identifying the link between the physical aspects of spoken communication and broader issues of health and wellness. He has a new book titled, Don't Say Um: How to Communicate Effectively to Live a Better Life. But as you'll hear, the title is a bit tongue in cheek. The concepts we discuss go far deeper than our cultural propensity to say, “um, er, like, and you know.” How we speak often gets us judged, for better or worse, much more than what we speak. But we don't get it. We are intent on what we are saying and talking about and miss how we are delivering it. But how we are communicating really does bely who we are. Using filler words and not addressing our body language doesn't just make us sound dumb, it honestly questions what level of personal security and confidence we actually have.

In this episode, Jerome Myers, America's Leading Exit Authority, explores the unseen emotional and psychological realities of selling a company.

Ever feel like you're chasing success so hard that you forget why you even started in the first place? Or maybe you're hustling day in and day out but still hitting walls of burnout, doubt, or just plain overwhelm? I've been podcasting for six years now—600 episodes, countless conversations with world-class entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and just all-around inspiring humans. And throughout this journey, I've picked up some powerful truths that have not only changed my life but can change yours too. In this special milestone episode, I share six life-changing lessons that will help you put the Happy in your Hustle and create a legacy that matters.Here's a taste of the wisdom packed inside:-Balance beats burnout. The grind without harmony isn't sustainable. That's why I created the S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N system, 10 alignments that help you crush it both personally and professionally without losing yourself.-Relationships are the real ROI. Success isn't a solo sport. The right people in your corner accelerate growth, joy, and opportunity more than any single strategy ever could.-Clarity creates confidence. Without a clear target, you'll miss every time. Knowing your North Star for the next 90 days and aligning it with your long-term vision will give you the confidence to say yes or no with certainty.-Presence is the power move. Whether it's in nature, with your family, or during a podcast interview, being fully present is where true power lies. Presence first, performance second.-Purpose fuels profits. When your mission is bigger than money, the money comes anyway. Aligning impact with income is how you truly thrive.-Consistency compounds into legacy. Six years and 600 episodes prove this: showing up again and again builds not just results, but a lasting impact for generations to come.These aren't just theories; they're truths I've lived, lessons I've witnessed from epic guests, and practices I use every day to stay aligned while chasing big dreams.So, if you're ready to avoid burnout, deepen your relationships, get crystal clear on your vision, live more present, connect purpose to profit, and build something that lasts… tune in to the full episode now.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Decision fatigue drains even high-capacity leaders. In this episode, discover how nervous system dysregulation disguises itself as urgency—and why peace-led conviction, not pressure, is the path to clarity.Decision fatigue isn't just about too many choices—it's what happens when your nervous system is braced in survival mode. High-capacity humans often mistake urgency for clarity, moving fast to keep everyone satisfied, only to end the day exhausted, second-guessing, and wondering if the choices were actually good or just quick.In this episode of The Recalibration with Julie Holly, we unpack why decision fatigue is really nervous system dysregulation in disguise—and how Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) offers a way back to peace-led conviction. Instead of outsourcing clarity to hacks, habits, or urgency culture, ILR anchors decision-making in identity so every choice flows from who you are becoming.Julie shares her own lived story of carrying decision fatigue across family, business, and leadership—and the breakthrough that came when she stopped treating exhaustion as a personal weakness and began recalibrating at the root.We also explore the wisdom of Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett's longtime partner, who modeled calm, peace-led decision-making. From his “invert, always invert” mental model to his commitment to staying within a “circle of competence,” Munger's example shows how presence and patience create clarity that urgency never will.If you've been navigating burnout recovery, role confusion, identity drift, decision fatigue, or performance pressure, this conversation will remind you: urgency is a poor substitute for conviction.Today's Micro Recalibration: Pre-decide 3 non-negotiables that protect presence: time, tone, tempo.Ask yourself:What's one boundary around time that restores me?What's one tone I want to set — in meetings, in conversations, in family life?What's one tempo that honors my capacity, not culture's urgency?Because when you pre-decide from identity, you reduce fatigue. You already know who you are — and every decision flows from that place.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

In this episode with Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh, you’ll discover a balanced perspective on vaccines, especially childhood vaccination, at a time when open, evidence-based dialogue is more important than ever. Drawing on his work as an integrative pediatrician, Dr. Warsh shares insights from his new book Between a Shot and a Hard Place, designed not to fuel division but to empower parents with knowledge, research, and practical tools for making informed decisions. You’ll explore the origins and evolution of vaccines, how schedules have changed, the strengths and flaws of safety testing, the nuanced risks and benefits of individual shots, and the importance of informed consent and medical freedom. By weaving together mainstream medicine and holistic practices, Dr. Warsh highlights where the science is strong, where questions remain, and why open conversation is the path toward clarity, confidence, and compassion—and if you’re interested in cutting through fear and hype to understand this complex topic, you won’t want to miss this episode. Dr. Joel "Gator" Warsh is the creator of the parenting Instagram account @drjoelgator and a board-certified pediatrician in Los Angeles specializing in wellness and integrative medicine. He is the author of multiple books, including his latest Between a Shot and a Hard Place: Tackling Difficult Vaccine Questions with Balance, Data, and Clarity.

Dr. Warsh has published research in peer-reviewed journals on childhood injuries, obesity, and physical activity and has been featured in documentaries, summits, podcasts, and articles.
