In this raw and vulnerable third annual birthday episode, Krista turns 47 and challenges everything we think we know about success, timing, and being "behind" in life. Spoiler alert: If you're in your 40s, 50s, or beyond and feel like you haven't hit your stride yet, you're not late...you're right on time.   Using the metaphor of the oak tree, which doesn't hit its prime acorn production until ages 50-80, Krista makes the case for embracing being a late bloomer and why your most productive, impactful years may still be ahead of you. Listen in for: The hard questions of midlife: "What am I doing this all for? Are my dreams really possible?" [06:58] How this past year looked different than any other in 15 years of entrepreneurship [11:04] The major life events that forced constant hustling and why there was never space until now [13:28] Why hustling hard was actually a mask for not pursuing the real dream [18:34] The statistics that prove you're not alone in feeling behind (hint: 57% of workers feel behind on retirement) [22:13] The oak tree metaphor that will change how you think about your timeline [24:19] Why years 50-80 are the oak tree's PRIME producing years (not 20-40 like society tells us) [26:49] How optimizing your "acorn production" creates a legacy that lasts 300+ years [29:28] Famous late bloomers who didn't hit their stride until their 40s, 50s, and 60s [31:46] Krista's late bloomer goal and why she's reclaiming the narrative [35:54] Whether you're questioning your timeline, feeling behind on your dreams, or wondering if it's too late, this episode is your reminder that life is long and your best work may still be ahead of you.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery As we head into the final quarter of 2025, I can't help but reflect on how quickly this year has passed. For some it has been a year of breakthroughs, for others a season of struggle, and for many it has been the same repeated cycle with no real progress. I know that space well because I spent years stuck there, constantly comparing myself to others, replaying the same broken record of frustration and disappointment. What I learned is that when you remain in that weakened state and do nothing, it always makes things worse. There is no positive outcome that comes from inaction. It took me years of turmoil, fights at home, depression, and setbacks before I finally said enough was enough. I had to let go of arrogance, become a student, and follow a proven model with absolute discipline. That model taught me to take care of my body, grow my mind, and improve my business every single day. Eleven years later, that same discipline has carried me through highs and lows, created stability, and given me the responsibility to teach others to do the same. Last week, I interviewed one of our top producers, Felipe. His story hit hard. His mother in law is battling a terminal illness, and his family is carrying that weight every single day. Yet he continues to show up, smiling, working, and leading his family. He's able to remain strong because he follows the same model he built in times of peace. He makes his power deposits, his purpose deposits, and his profit deposits, even in the middle of heartbreak. That discipline allows him to stay strong when most would break. And that is the lesson. Discipline is what steadies you when the storms of life hit. Without it, you ride an emotional roller coaster that everyone around you feels your family, your clients, even strangers on Instagram. But with discipline, you create stability. You show up the same way whether life is good or life is breaking apart. You keep moving forward regardless of fear, anger, or doubt. I've lived this through every season of my business and my life: from financial ruin, to injuries, to losing agents, to being told the company wouldn't survive. And each time, I kept showing up, making my deposits, holding to the model. You wouldn't know my fear or my doubt because I refused to let it dictate my actions. That is what built this company, that is what built my family, and that is what continues to build my life today. So as we close this year, ask yourself: are you operating from feelings, or are you following a standard? Are you making deposits every day, or are you hoping that things just work out? Because without discipline, you don't stand a chance. With it, you create a foundation that allows you to not only survive but thrive no matter what comes your way. Reader Engagement Questions Where in your life do you need to raise your standard so discipline guides you instead of feelings? How do your family, clients, and peers experience you when things fall apart do they see strength or instability? What daily deposits can you commit to right now that will keep you steady through both success and hardship? Notable Quotes “If you are in a weakened position and you do nothing, it makes things worse. There is no positive that could come out of that.” “Discipline allows you to remain strong in moments of tragedy, in moments of weakness, in moments of doubt and fear but you wouldn't know.” “Regardless of where I am in life, I show up the very same way day in and day out. But again, you wouldn't know.” Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery I reflected on the way we often sabotage ourselves after hitting milestones in life, marriage, or business. What I discovered is that success is not the final destination. It is only proof of what we are capable of, but if we stop doing the things that got us there, erosion sets in. That erosion often shows up as stress, frustration, and even conflict in relationships. The Upper Limit One of the biggest lessons I shared is the idea of the upper limit. When things are going too well, we unconsciously put a ceiling on how far we can go. Instead of celebrating a win and building on it, fear creeps in. We start asking questions like, “What if I can't do this again?” or “What if this was just luck?” Those thoughts slowly break down our momentum. I have seen it in my business and in my marriage. A great month in sales, or a great season at home, would unknowingly trigger fear that it could not last. Instead of making more deposits into the relationships and actions that created those wins, I would rest on the belief that things should just stay good on their own. The truth is, success only multiplies when we continue doing the work that got us there. Deflection and Spite Another pattern I noticed is how easy it is to deflect blame when things start breaking down. It is easy to say it is my clients, it is the market, it is my spouse, it is my kids. But weeks or months before, when everything was flowing, I was not saying those things. The problem was not them. The problem was me. I stopped showing up the same way. I stopped making deposits. And eventually the energy dropped, leading to spite and disconnection. Breaking the Dysfunction The dysfunction shows up when we start believing that joy, peace, or prosperity cannot last. We tell ourselves that if things are too good, something bad must be around the corner. That thinking erodes the very progress we worked so hard for. The real challenge is to catch it early. To identify when fear is sneaking in after a big win and to remind ourselves that success is repeatable. Prosperity has no ceiling. When I look back at my own life, both in business and in marriage, the times that desperation took over were the times I failed to catch those upper limits. The key is to take full responsibility. To audit where I stopped making the daily deposits. To remember that success is not luck, it is the result of intention and consistency. Conclusion The upper limit is not the end of your progress unless you allow it to be. Wins are not meant to be one-time events. They are proof of what is possible when you stay committed and consistent. Stop deflecting, stop doubting, and stop fearing that success will disappear. Put in the deposits daily, and prosperity will keep multiplying in every area of your life. Reflective Questions Where in your life have you unconsciously placed an upper limit after a big win? What deposits did you stop making in your marriage, business, or personal growth that once fueled your success? How can you shift your mindset today to see prosperity as limitless rather than temporary? Notable Quotes “The moment you start to fear that it is never going to happen again is the moment you are already eroding your progression.” “Success is an obligation and a responsibility, and it requires daily deposits to keep multiplying.” “It is not about your clients, your spouse, or your kids. It is about what you stopped doing.” Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery I connect three threads that shaped my week leadership work ethic and faith. I walk through a real conversation with my leaders a hard look at my own past and a shocking video that forced me to lead my family with clarity instead of emotion. The lesson is simple. When I keep my work ethic and my faith in place the results I call favor follow. When I chase favor without doing the work or I let distractions run me I lose my edge and I lose my peace. What Happened We met with a small group of team leaders at the office. I reminded them and myself that leadership is stewardship. It starts with how I lead me. It extends to how I lead my family and then my team. I shared my own story from 2018 when the business felt like it broke me. The economy shifted deals fell through agents left and I kept asking when things would turn. The answer was not out there. It was in my daily work and my faith in a bigger purpose than my next commission check. I also revisited an older wound. Years ago I opened my playbook to someone I brought in. He used that access to compete with me. I blamed him. The truth was I took my eyes off my path. I stopped studying. I stopped answering calls. I got complacent. Competition was a gift. It pushed me to evolve rather than gatekeep and stall. After the meeting I saw a graphic video of the killing of Charlie Kirk. It shook me. It brought back the day I was shot and almost bled out. That memory used to carry anger at a friend who froze instead of helping. Today I see his fear for what it was. I chose to lead my daughters through what they saw. I asked them how it made them feel. We talked about fear anger empathy and being human. The point was not to feed rage. The point was to feel the pain and still choose to do good and be good. The Lesson Results are not random. Favor is the byproduct of two things I control every day. Relentless work ethic and real faith. Work ethic means I show up with intention focus and persistence whether it is my health my marriage my clients or my team. Faith means I trust a bigger purpose while I do the work. If I chase favor without those two I become entitled and easily distracted. If I keep those two in place I can face setbacks and even public chaos without losing who I am. How I Apply It I audit my effort before I complain about results. If I am tired have I stopped doing the work to take care of me. If my marriage feels off what actions and attention did I drop. If business is slow where did I cut corners on calls study and skill. I choose conversations that build agency in my home and in my team. I lead through questions and action not through outrage. I keep moving with gratitude and conviction. That is how favor shows up. Conclusion The world will hand you distractions and hard moments. Your response will either drain you or grow you. Keep the standard. Do the work. Hold the faith. Favor follows. Lead yourself first. Lead your home. Then lead your business. That is how you live this message not just hear it. Reader Questions Where have you taken your eyes off your own path and started watching someone else What specific action today would prove your standard in your health marriage or business What conversation do you need to start with your family or team to turn emotion into leadership Notable Quotes “Leadership is a stewardship.” “Work ethic plus strong faith will create the favor.” “Something greater than your next commission check.” Follow A.Z.

Have you ever had one of those days where the tiniest thing completely unravels you? That was me this past week. What started as a simple Flodesk login issue spiralled into a full-on meltdown — dramatic library trip and all. But underneath the chaos, I realized it wasn't about technology at all. It was about fear, control, and what happens when our nervous system is stretched in the unknown. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my very real, very human spiral — and the surprising lesson that only landed once I finally let go.  We'll explore: Why small changes can trigger big nervous-system responses. The difference between panic + presence when you're stretched. How surrendering opens the door to clarity and flow. Why challenges aren't blocks but invitatations into expansion. If you've ever found yourself spiralling about money, business, or even life's little curveballs — this episode will help you shift from gripping to receiving.

Serena gets real about the ups, downs, and unexpected turns of entrepreneurship—like losing a corporate job at seven months pregnant, launching her own agency, and growing it over the past ten years into a thriving business that now supports a full team.  Key Takeaways:  Clarity Creates Confidence: Serena shares how shifting from confusion to clarity with her finances gave her the ability to make calm, strategic decisions in her business. The Right Support Team Matters: Finding a bookkeeping and accounting team who actually listened and provided her with timely numbers while communicating what they mean changed the game for her and her business.  Numbers and Intuition Go Hand in Hand: Serena explains how she balances gut instincts with financial data to steer her business forward. Growth Requires a Mindset Shift: Hiring a team and stepping into the visionary role required Serena to let go of old ways of working and embrace new levels of leadership. Financial Knowledge Equals Freedom: Knowing her numbers didn't just improve her bottom line, it gave Serena peace of mind and the confidence to make decisions and take calculated risks.

You've read the books. You've hired the coaches. You've binged the podcasts (including this one). So why do you still feel stuck?In this powerful solo episode, George Bryant calls himself out—and calls you forward. This is not a strategy dump. It's a soul-level wake-up call to stop collecting information and start embodying what you already know.This episode dives deep into the Knowing Trap—that frustrating gap between awareness and action. George unpacks why we stay stuck even when we “know better,” the identity illusions that sabotage our growth, and how to break free with simple, embodied action. You'll walk away with a three-part framework, reflection questions, and a challenge to move forward today—not someday.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy more knowledge isn't the answer to your stucknessThe real cost of “almost” launching, starting, healing, or leadingA 3-step spiral that keeps entrepreneurs frozen in placeHow identity clings to the past and resists your next levelWhat it really takes to embody what you already knowKey Takeaways✔️Awareness doesn't equal embodiment. You can know better and still not do better.✔️Avoidance is sneaky. We often gaslight ourselves by calling procrastination “processing.”✔️Action is the only way out. You must choose to do what you already know you need to do.✔️Your identity must evolve. The next version of you can't live with the old version's beliefs.✔️Pick one thing and do it today.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I break down a simple truth I live by every day. Attitude is the foundation. Enthusiasm is the expression. When I move with purpose even on the mornings I feel stiff, tired, and anything but motivated, my actions create the energy I need. People read my face, my voice, my posture, and they respond to what I carry. If I choose purpose, others feel it and follow it. Introduction I did not wake up inspired. My back hurt. My shoulder was tight. I shuffled to the bathroom like a slow old man. Then I walked into the gym and a guy told me I always move with purpose. That compliment reminded me of the standard I set for myself. I do not wait for motivation. I act first. The energy shows up after. Body Awareness creates advantage I know eyes are on me. Clients, team, family, even strangers at the gym read my body language. They decide how far to push, whether to trust, and if they want to work with me based on what I show. When I smile, stand tall, and speak with conviction, I transmit certainty. Certainty moves deals forward. Action before motivation I never count on feeling ready. I get moving and let the movement warm up my mind. Action builds motivation. Motivation builds inspiration. Then I stack more action. That cycle is how I keep momentum, even when my body hurts or my schedule is heavy. Enthusiasm is a skill Enthusiasm is not fake. It is a decision to express what I believe. Shoulders back. Eye contact. Strong handshake. Clear tonality. Words that lead. I do this with my family so they can believe in me. I do it with clients so they can make confident decisions. If I carry worry, they mirror worry. If I carry certainty, they mirror certainty. Lead the room with your presence At the gym I skip every other stair. At the coffee shop Carla and I visit, we are met with smiles and service because we bring the same energy. People respond to the way you enter a space. Move like you have somewhere to be and something to build. Smile first. It opens doors. Say you are the best and then deliver Big claims force big delivery. When I say I market the best, negotiate the best, and deliver the best, I give my subconscious direct orders. Then I back it up with preparation, presence, and follow through. Clients already believe you are the best when they call you. Do not talk them out of it by being timid, worried, or slow. Protect client experience with your tone Problems happen. Appraisals come in low. Inspections get messy. Your job is not to transfer panic. Your job is to take on the worry and lead with solutions. Calm tone. Clear path. People want to feel they made the right decision when they chose you. Practical cues to switch on enthusiasm Smile before you call. Stand up when you negotiate. Use your hands when you explain. Nod to confirm understanding. Keep your voice steady. Dress with intention. If you feel yourself fading, lean your shoulders forward and let your body pull your mind into motion. Forward momentum beats hesitation. Conclusion Attitude sets your standard. Enthusiasm shows the world your standard. Stop waiting to feel ready. Take the action that moves you. Smile with purpose. Speak with conviction. Walk like you mean it. When you do, people feel safe making decisions around you. That is leadership. That is how you produce. Reader Questions Where in your day do you usually wait for motivation, and what action can you take first to spark it instead Think about your last client meeting. What did your face, tone, and posture communicate before you said a word What bold claim about your service are you willing to make today, and what specific action will you take to back it up Notable Quotes Attitude is the foundation and enthusiasm is the expression. Do not wait for motivation. Take the action and let the action create the energy. Clients already believe you are the best or they would not have called. Do not talk them out of it. Follow A.Z.

Have you ever felt like slowing down might cost you everything? Like if you take a break, the momentum will disappear, the clients will stop coming, and the money will dry up? You're not alone.

In this episode of PivotMe, April challenges entrepreneurs and high performers to face a universal truth: you will either pay in preparation or pay in recovery — but you will always pay. With her signature energy and straight talk, April uses real-world stories, from business consulting to FEMA disaster studies, to illustrate how preparation always beats scrambling in recovery. Through an engaging story about her client Dan, April highlights the importance of shifting the conversation from “cost” to “value” and, most importantly, articulating the cost of inaction. Key Takeaways Preparation vs. Recovery: You don't escape either, but preparation is far cheaper, calmer, and puts you in control. The Cost of Inaction: Indecision still carries a price tag. Not preparing or delaying decisions creates bigger, more expensive problems later. Selling on Value: Don't sell price alone; articulate what inaction will cost your prospects. Universal Truth: This applies in every area — compliance, real estate, marriage, even FEMA studies. Prepare now and avoid exponential pain later. Perspective Shift: It's not $50K or nothing — it's $50K and peace of mind vs. $120K+ in headaches and penalties. Quotes from April “Not deciding is still a decision — and that indecision has a price tag.” “Preparation is cheaper. Recovery is messy, expensive, and always takes longer than you think.” “Your numbers are data, not damnation.” Actionable Items Identify where you're waiting instead of preparing in business or personal life. Reframe your perspective — ask, “What will inaction cost me?” Schedule a “money date” or prep time weekly to get in front of problems instead of cleaning up after them. Preparation isn't a luxury — it's your best defense against chaos, wasted money, and sleepless nights. Whether in business or in life, the choice is clear: pay upfront in preparation, or pay later with interest in recovery. April urges listeners to choose wisely and pivot toward preparation. ______________________________________

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I talk about why supplements are not just vitamins. They are the extra inputs that help you operate at peak levels in every area. The lesson started at home with our dogs. Training them myself worked only up to a point. Real progress came when we added expert guidance. That same truth applies to business, health, faith, marriage, and parenting. If you want to last and not just compete for a moment, you must supplement your life. What happened Our dogs used to run wild the moment they got excited. Walks turned into chaos. Vet visits were embarrassing. We brought in a trainer and learned a simple command. Place. This morning both dogs stayed on their beds while Carla and I moved through the house. It was a visible shift. The right supplement changed the entire environment. The bigger idea Supplements are not only in a bottle. They are the people you ask for advice, the coaches you hire, the habits you choose, the food you eat, the books you read, the prayers you make, and the actions you repeat. I used to think all my problems were business problems. I kept hitting the wall until I invested in my faith, my marriage, my kids, and my health. When those deposits increased, my business followed. Ask the right people Many get crushed because they ask the wrong people the right questions. Do not ask for business direction from someone who has never built a business. Do not ask parenting advice from someone who is not involved with their kids. Respect people for what they do well and ask within that lane. I hired coaches for health, faith, business, and family. Carla is my spiritual supplement. I go to her because she lives in the Word and shares from experience. Own your decision Advice is input, not a verdict. If your soul says move and someone says wait, you must decide. Do not hide your fear behind someone else's opinion. When you outsource your choices, you erode your certainty. Take the guidance, measure it against your values and your vision, then choose. How to apply it today Audit your sources. Write down who you go to for business, for marriage, for parenting, for health, and for faith. Match the mentor to the category. If they do not live what you want, find someone who does. Make daily deposits into the Prime 3 power. Health and fitness. Mental and spiritual fuel. Family and profits through marketing, sales, systems, and leadership. Tighten the basics. Eat better. Move your body. Read daily. Pray daily. Set clear standards at home and at work. Check your environment. Simple commands changed our home. Simple standards will change your business. Conclusion The right supplement replenishes, energizes, and repairs. If you want a life that lasts, stop searching for a single fix in business and start strengthening every area that feeds your purpose. Ask better people better questions. Make your deposits. Then own your decision and move. Reader Questions Who are you asking for advice in each area of your life and do they actually live the results you want What is one deposit you will make today in your Prime 3 power that would raise your standard this week Where have you outsourced a decision out of fear and what choice will you own before the day ends Notable Quotes “It replenishes you, it energizes you, it repairs you.” “Make your deposits every day. The Prime 3 power.” “At the end of the day, you have to own your decision.”   Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery... I looked around at our momentum and realized how far we have come. But here is the truth. Growth is never without pain. The market will expose those who do not adjust. It will reveal who is willing to adapt, learn, and push through. I had to remind myself that the grind never stops. And even in the tough moments, I cannot forget the promises I made to myself when I was down. That is where the fire comes from. The story This week I reflected on how the tide of the market exposes everything. When the tide is high, everyone wins. But when the tide goes low, you find out who has the mindset to keep going. I compared it to my own journey. From being recognized as a top agent, to building teams, to running one of the largest brokerages in the state, every level required me to change. It required me to sharpen my skills, build new systems, and keep showing up even when the industry shifted. And that is exactly what is happening now. Many agents are walking away, but many of us are growing faster than ever because we stay in the fight. What shifted The shift happened when I stopped wishing someone else would fix my problems. I used to want someone to run my ads, handle my follow up, or even train my agents for me. But no one is coming to save you. The moment I took full responsibility for my business was the moment everything changed. I became a better trainer, a better communicator, and a better leader. I learned to simplify the game and help new agents close quickly. That ownership made all the difference. The same goes for how we handle trauma. Pain can keep you stuck, or it can push you to grow. I call it post traumatic growth. I lived it after surviving a shooting. Paulina lived it after hitting rock bottom and then selling fifteen million in one year. The difference was a decision to flip the switch. The lesson The lesson is simple. Stop waiting for someone else to fix your life or your business. Take the pain, take the pressure, and use it as fuel. The growth will come when you own every part of the process. Put it to work Track the only KPIs that matter: appointments, commitments, escrows, and closings. Stop wishing for help and start building your own process. Decide today to flip the switch and turn pain into power. Conclusion The market will always test you. It will expose who you really are. Do not waste years wishing someone would come fix things for you. Take ownership and swing the pendulum in your favor. The power is already in you. The only question is what you will do with it today. Reader engagement questions What promises did you make to yourself during your toughest moments, and are you living up to them? Where in your business are you still waiting for someone else to take responsibility? How can you turn your current pain into the power that fuels your next level of growth? Notable quotes "No one is going to come in and fix your business. No one can run it better than you." "The power came when I stopped asking why me and started asking what now." "Pain is no longer pain when you decide to turn it into purpose." Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery... We just got back from a family trip that we had been talking about for months. For us, planning usually means speaking it into existence, not locking in every detail months ahead. This time was different because Carla and I made a conscious choice before we left. We decided this would be our best trip yet, and we were going to plan not only for the good moments but also for the things that could go wrong. That decision changed everything. What happened Before we even left, Carla and I sat down and set the tone. We talked about how we would handle frustrations so they would not ruin the experience. That mattered because the trip tested us right away. Delayed flights, missed connections, lost luggage, and canceled plans could have derailed everything. Instead, we kept our focus on the bigger picture. There were moments where my old habits almost kicked in. When my daughter's bag went missing with some of her most valued belongings, my instinct was to ask why she packed certain things that way. But I checked myself. Carla and I gave her the space to feel upset and reminded her it was only material things. That shift in energy kept the trip on track. We also made last minute changes that cost us money. Instead of forcing ourselves to stick to the original plan, we adapted and chose what was best for our family in the moment. The result was a better trip than we could have imagined, even though it did not go according to the script. What I learned A vision will always come with challenges. The dream is the easy part. The real test is how you respond when things go sideways. Too often we obsess over the task or the setback instead of keeping our attention on the outcome we want. In business, this is the same as losing a deal and letting it destroy your momentum. If you have enough conversations, enough follow up, and enough people in your pipeline, one lost client will not shake you. The problem is never just the deal that fell through. The problem is not having enough opportunities in play to absorb that hit. We need to plan for the setbacks as much as we plan for the wins. That way, when the delays, lost luggage, or tough negotiations come, we can pivot without losing our composure. How it applies to you Whether it is a trip, a relationship, or your business, the way you handle challenges will decide if you ever reach your vision. If you let every problem become the center of your attention, you will lose sight of what you were chasing to begin with. Your job is to keep the vision bigger than the current problem. Plan for the good. Plan for the bad. And when things go wrong, remind yourself the result you want is still there as long as you keep moving toward it. Conclusion I am proud of how Carla and I handled this trip because it was more than just about having a good time. It was about showing our kids how to respond when life throws a curveball. That is a skill they will use for the rest of their lives. The same is true for business. You can choose to stay stuck on the setback, or you can check your mindset, refocus, and get back to building the life and results you want. Reader questions How do you usually respond when something throws your plans off track? What steps can you take now to make sure one setback does not derail your entire vision? Are you focusing more on the tasks and problems, or on the end result you truly want? Notable quotes “Your job is to keep the vision bigger than the current problem.” “We need to plan for the setbacks as much as we plan for the wins.” “If this is the worst that can happen, I need to check myself and remember what really matters.” Follow A.Z.

Would you die for your kids? Most dads would. But would you live for them? In this powerful episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with Andrew Jax—father of three, Australian natural bodybuilding champion, and founder of the “Ditch the Dad Fat” program. Known as the “6 Pack Dad,” Andrew shares how optimizing your health isn't just about looking good—it's about leading with strength, energy, and integrity at home. We explore the silent leadership of fatherhood, why most men's health declines after marriage, and how to reverse that trend with small, sustainable changes. Andrew breaks down the real cost of saying “I don't have time,” the importance of emotional and physical energy for our families, and how you can enjoy your pizza and beer—and still lose the dad bod. Whether you're already committed to health or just thinking about getting back in the game, this episode will fire you up and equip you with strategies you can use today.   TIMELINE SUMMARY: [0:00] - Would you die for your kids?

[2:10] - Introducing Andrew Jax: father, champion bodybuilder, and coach [3:17] - Why health is a leadership issue, not just a vanity project [5:00] - The “Dad decline”: why men fall apart after marriage [8:22] - Guilt, shame, and why self-care isn't selfish [13:06] - The myth of “no time” and how to make fitness fit your life [17:07] - Why starting small matters—and why most men wait for a crisis [21:22] - Andrew's “Habit Sustainability Formula” explained [25:17] - Daily accountability: the #1 key to long-term success [28:10] - How to stay lean without relying on exercise [31:08] - Why sleep and stress management are crucial to fat loss [34:03] - Finding balance: eating clean without giving up your life [37:04] - Prioritizing protein, carbs, fats, and smart supplementation [43:08] - How Andrew leads his family spiritually, emotionally, and physically [46:10] - Where to connect and get a free copy of Andrew's book   5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Health Is a Legacy Issue Your kids aren't just watching—they're modeling. Leading with health means passing on a generational inheritance of physical, emotional, and mental well-being. They'll follow your example more than your advice. 2. Self-Care Is Not Selfish Skipping your workout may feel noble in the moment, but long-term neglect robs your family of your energy, presence, and vitality. When you take care of yourself, you increase your capacity to take care of others. 3. You Don't Need Hours or Perfection You don't need five workouts a week or chicken and broccoli forever. Andrew's clients are busy dads and business owners who see results with three efficient sessions per week and a flexible, sustainable eating plan. 4. Daily Accountability Changes Everything Forget once-a-week check-ins. Andrew's clients get results through daily guidance and support. If you want real change, don't go it alone—build a system that keeps you on track every single day. 5. Lead at Home Like You Lead at Work Andrew's success isn't just in coaching—it's in how he shows up as a husband and father. He shares how servant leadership, spiritual alignment, and presence fuel his connection with his wife and kids every day.   LINKS & RESOURCES: Free copy of my Ditch The Dad Fat eBook: ditchthedadfatbook.gr8.com Free training on How Busy Dads Are Losing 10-35lbs & Reclaiming Their Health, Energy & Confidence In 6 Weeks Without Exercise or Extreme Diets: ditchthedadfat.com Ditch The Dad Fat Podcast: rebrand.ly/DTDFPodcast Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com Episode Page: https://www.thedadedge.com/538 If this episode gave you fresh perspective or practical tips, please rate, follow, review, and share the podcast.
