What does it actually mean to pursue excellence without losing your peace, your family, or yourself in the process? In this episode, I sit down with New York Times bestselling author Brad Stulberg to unpack the tension so many driven men feel: the desire to achieve at a high level while still living a meaningful and grounded life. Brad shares insights from his book The Way of Excellence and explains why humans are wired to strive — but not necessarily wired to feel content once we achieve. We dive into the trap many high-performing men fall into: constantly chasing the next milestone, promotion, or accomplishment while never feeling satisfied. Brad also shares powerful insights for fathers on how to help their kids develop a healthy relationship with effort, competition, and self-worth. If you're a driven man who struggles to slow down and enjoy the journey — or you want to raise kids who value effort and character over outcomes — this conversation will challenge how you think about success. Timeline Summary [0:00] Introducing Brad Stulberg and the idea behind The Way of Excellence [2:29] Why humans are wired to strive but not wired for contentment [8:57] The trap of "heroic individualism" and chasing achievement [11:04] Why success alone often leaves people feeling empty [20:08] The mountain metaphor for achievement and fulfillment [26:04] The importance of pausing to appreciate the journey [29:00] Helping kids avoid tying self-worth to results [34:46] Why youth sports should focus on development over winning [41:01] Separating identity from performance [48:55] The real goal of youth sports: helping kids want to play again next year Five Key Takeaways Humans are wired to strive, which means the next achievement rarely brings lasting satisfaction. True excellence is about pursuing something worthwhile that aligns with your values. Focusing only on outcomes causes us to miss the meaning of the journey. Kids need to learn that effort and growth matter more than results. Fulfillment comes from aligning ambition with presence, purpose, and values.

One of our all-time favorite guests, Daniel Coyle returns for a timely and thought-provoking conversation on human flourishing, belonging, and what leaders often misunderstand about employee well-being. Coyle is widely known for his ability to translate rigorous research into clear, actionable insights for leaders, and seven years ago, he joined us to discuss The Culture Code – an episode that has gone on to be one of the most downloaded conversations in our show's history. Daniel is back with a new book, Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy, and Fulfillment, which challenges conventional thinking about well-being at work. Rather than focusing on individual habits, resilience training, or wellness initiatives, Coyle explores the deeper relational and environmental conditions that allow people to thrive together. The core premise is deceptively simple but deeply disruptive: flourishing is not something people achieve alone. Coyle argues that individuals become their fullest selves through meaningful relationships and through a felt sense of belonging to something larger than themselves. For leaders, this reframes well-being as an outcome of culture—not a program to be managed. Trust, connection, and shared purpose matter more than perks, and leadership behavior plays a decisive role in shaping whether those conditions exist. The discussion also examines a defining paradox of modern work: people are more digitally connected than ever, yet increasingly isolated. Coyle explains how many workplaces unintentionally undermine the conditions required for real connection—and how leaders often reinforce this through excessive control, speed, and over-reliance on hierarchy. Insights are drawn from unexpected places, including a trust-building practice used by a basketball coach at Penn State University, a powerful moment of collective reflection led by Fred “Mr.” Rogers, and a community that consistently produces Olympic athletes. Together, these examples point toward a more humane model of leadership—one centered on humility, shared ownership, and creating the conditions where people can truly flourish. This is a conversation for leaders who sense that something essential is missing in today's workplaces—and who are ready to rethink how connection, trust, and meaning are actually built. It offers a compelling reminder that when leaders focus on creating the right conditions, well-being and performance don't compete—they reinforce one another. The post Daniel Coyle: How Leaders Create The Conditions For Flourishing appeared first on Mark C. Crowley.
Long-term health isn't just about diet, exercise, or supplements, it's about purpose and alignment. In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between intentional living, stress resilience, and sustainable wellbeing. Our conversation unpacks how daily choices, clarity of mission, and nervous system alignment can either drive burnout or build lasting vitality. This is a grounded, practical look at why purpose may be one of the most overlooked health interventions we have.

Host Dr. Tarryn McCarthy speaks directly to high-achieving healthcare professionals and dedicated women in dentistry who are used to pushing themselves harder than anyone else ever could. The same drive that builds successful careers often brings constant self-criticism, quiet guilt, and the pressure to always do more. She offers a perspective that reframes how high performers think about perfection, leadership, and the voice inside their own head. When that internal dialogue shifts, confidence, energy, and fulfillment begin to change with it.This episode is for the provider who shows up for everyone else but rarely extends that same grace to herself. Press play and politely inform your inner critic it is no longer running the practice.Show notes:(1:41) Why guilt and shame hurt growth(3:02) Self-criticism in dentistry and medicine(5:05) How perfectionism creates self-shame(8:33) Shame drains confidence and energy(13:07) Two leaders with different self-talk(19:12) Awareness and self-compassion practice(20:47) Outro________________IMPORTANT LINKS:Connect with Dr. MacCarthy:Email: tarryn@drtarrynmaccarthy.comBook a call with Tarryn:https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/bookings/happiness-and-prosperity-strategy-callUnlock your inner peace and reclaim joy in your profession with the Nervous System Regulation For Dentists Course: https://www.thebizofhappiness.com/calmPlease join my Facebook group, Business Of Happiness Hive, so we can all take this journey to find fulfillment and happiness together.

Everyone says to follow you passion, but what if you're passionate about cupcakes and walking? It's only half of the equation to a fulfilling career and life so we need to discuss the other half.

We discuss his upcoming book ‘Find Your X Factor' which helps high performers escape impressive BUT draining careers.

In this thought-provoking episode of The Quiet Warrior Podcast, I talk with Christian Schnepf, founder of The Science of Good Times and creator of the Good Times App — the world's first data-based navigation system for life.Drawing on years of cross-cultural exploration and PhD-level research at Shanghai University, Christian shares his mission to make the conscious pursuit of good times the number one priority in human life. Blending philosophy, physics, and psychology, he reveals how we can cultivate more flow, joy, and fulfillment — not by doing more, but by learning when to let go, relax, and be fully present.Key TakeawaysThe turning point: Christian's personal crisis led him to question conventional success and seek a more meaningful design for life.Defining a “good time”: A moment when you feel fully attracted to your experience — who you are, where you are, what you do, who you're with, and what you receive.The five life areas:SelfSocial relationshipsActionsRewards (money, love, acknowledgement)EnvironmentThe flow of energy: Good times occur when energy flows freely; bad times signal energy blockages.The art of doing nothing: True rest means surrendering control — not performing, producing, or even trying to relax.Fear vs. love: We either move away from fear or toward love. Living consciously means walking toward what attracts and nourishes us.The role of awareness: Checking in with ourselves helps reveal what truly feels good, rather than what society or algorithms dictate.The Good Time Ratio (GTR): A simple metric to track how often you feel attracted to your experiences — a practical step toward more conscious living.Connect with Christian SchnepfWebsite: https://chrisw.coGoodTime App: https://goodtime.appYouTube: https: //www.youtube.com/@chriswgtInstagram: https: //www.instagram.com/chrisw.gt/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chrisw.gt/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisw-gtConnect with SerenaIf you're a quiet woman leader ready to be visible without performing extroversion or burning out, the Visible Introvert community has the solution.

Author and entrepreneur Luke Burgis joins us to explore the invisible architecture of human desire — and how understanding it can radically change our choices, ambitions, and sense of self. Drawing on his book *Wanting* and the mimetic theory of René Girard, Burgis unpacks how most of what we "want" is shaped not by independent reasoning, but by models — people we unconsciously imitate.From adolescent identity formation to startup culture, self-improvement traps, and curated social media personas, Burgis reveals how easily our values can be hijacked. He discusses the destructive loop of rivalrous desire, the myth of the autonomous goal-setter, and how most of us never pause to ask *why* we want what we want. The conversation also dives into the difference between thin vs. thick desires, how to build a life rooted in fulfillment rather than status, and the importance of discovering what only *you* can do. For anyone seeking clarity in a noisy, comparison-driven world, this episode is a wake-up call — and a blueprint for reclaiming your inner compass. Hosted on Acast.

The Blood of Christ and the Courtroom of Heaven – Part 1 | KIB 520 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description In KIB Episode 520, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake address the spiritual intensity surrounding this season (Purim, "blood moon," and heightened occult activity) and then go deep into a foundational subject the remnant must understand: the power of the Blood of Jesus. This is not superstition. It's not a chant. It's not a ritual. The Blood of Jesus is covenant reality—a legal transaction that secures redemption, silences accusation, and anchors spiritual warfare in heaven's courtroom. In this episode: Why the enemy pushes believers toward formula-based "churchianity" Passover blood: covenant protection before judgment falls (Exodus 12) "The life is in the blood" and substitutionary atonement (Leviticus 17:11) The Blood of Jesus: eternal redemption (Hebrews 9:12) Why the Blood "speaks better things than Abel" (Hebrews 12:24) How victory works in warfare: Blood + testimony + covenant fidelity (Revelation 12:11) Why spiritual maturity requires depth in the basics

Does faith in Jesus cancel the Law of God? Or does it actually confirm it? Many wrestle with this question. Some believe grace replaces the Law entirely. Others cling to the Law without understanding its purpose. But Scripture shows us something deeper: the Law was never the means of salvation — it was the mirror that revealed our need for one. In this episode, we walk through Romans and the words of Jesus to understand the purpose of the Law, the power of faith, and how the gospel does not abolish God's standard — it fulfills it. Faith does not make the Law void. It establishes it.
Norman Parker:- This House Pt.5: The Big Story:- From Fulfillment To Completion https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Juo5hc440G79aU-AbKKtUb_F4YmkK4fh/view?usp=sharingKey Themes and Biblical References: Jesus our Apostle and High Priest: The message explores how Jesus is building His house. Hebrews 3:1 encourages believers to "fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest". Questions for reflection include what it means for Jesus to be our apostle and high priest, and what it means to share in the "heavenly calling". Passover and Pentecost: John the Baptist identified Jesus as "the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world". The one who sent John to baptize with water indicated that the one on whom the Spirit descends and remains will "baptise with the Holy Spirit". The Unique Relationship between Jesus and the Father (James Torrance): The center of the New Testament is the "unique relationship between Jesus and the Father". Through the Spirit, Christ presents Himself "on behalf of humankind" and draws people to participate "both in his life of worship and communion with the Father and in his mission". This relationship is interpreted through the Holy Spirit: Jesus is conceived, baptized, led, offers himself through the eternal Spirit on the cross, is raised by the Spirit, and receives the Spirit from the Father to baptize the church. Contrasting Mountains (Hebrews 12): The Mountain of Fear refers to the terrifying sight of Mount Sinai, with fire, darkness, and storm, where Moses trembled. The Mountain of Joy refers to Mount Zion, the heavenly Jerusalem, where believers have come to "thousands upon thousands of angels," "the church of the firstborn," and "Jesus the mediator of a new covenant". The Point of Pentecost (N.T. Wright): The overarching story of Scripture is not about humans going to live with God, but about "God's intention to come and live with us and even in us". Pentecost is the "homecoming of God," fulfilling the promise to "dwell in and with his People".

Our hormones are essential to our mental and physical health, yet we often don't understand (or we minimize) the key role hormones play in fostering our wellbeing. And to make matters worse, many--or dare I say most – medical practitioners are not given adequate training when it comes to understanding the role hormones play in the health of our bones, heart, muscles, and brain. And when our bodily systems are not functioning well – whether we're experiencing issues such as a lack of focus, sleep disruption, weight gain, or low libido – our mental health can be deeply affected. Today, I'm joined by a top medical expert, Carrie Levine, who will help us discover key components of HRT (hormone replacement therapy) and so much more. Topics discussed include mental heath, depression, psychotherapy, support, physical health, hormones, HRT, hormone replacement therapy, estrogen, progesterone, progestin, DHEA, HPA Axis, cortisol, stress, stress management, exercise, resistance training, weight training, carbohydrates, protein, testosterone, Women's Health Initiative, menopause, perimenopause, post-menopause, relationships, A1C, blood glucose, sex, and libido.

As we finish up our week-long look at nurturing our kids away from materialism, here are some practical guidelines to help you address this issue in your home. Sit together as a family and read through the Sermon on the Mount. As the passage is read aloud, have each family member jot down anything from Jesus' words that offer insight into how we are to view and manage money and wealth, along with insights into where one finds true meaning and satisfaction in life. Take time to discuss your observations. Tell your children about times in your own life when you had your hopes dashed by something material that did not fulfill as you imagined it would. Evaluate any hopes and expectations for your children and teens that might be pushing them into a lifestyle of materialism. Adjust your hopes and expectations based on this definition of success: “True success in life is faithfulness to God and obedience to his commands, whether your net worth is 10 cents or 10 million dollars.”

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week, I'm thrilled to welcome Daniel Coyle to the show. He has spent the last two decades acting as a performance detective for some of the most elite organizations on the planet. While you may know him as the New York Times bestselling author of The Talent Code and The Culture Code, Dan's real work happens in the trenches. He served as a special advisor to the Cleveland Guardians. And work closely with Navy SEAL teams, Google, and top soccer academies to decode one simple question: why do some groups click while others crumble? He specializes in micro behaviors and the tiny repeatable signals that turn a group of talented individuals into a flourishing ecosystem. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… leaders who want their teams to truly click. This conversation will shift how you think about performance, connection, and culture. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…we tend to believe that if you put talented people together, you'll automatically get a talented team. Daniel challenges that assumption. He says what actually determines whether a group flourishes isn't just individual ability, it's what happens in the space between people. Through real-life examples, Daniel shows the key ingredients to a flourishing team. Key Takeaways: Talented individuals do not automatically create high-performing teams. Status management kills creativity, speed, and collaboration. The best leaders create space for agency and shared ownership. Questions build connection faster than answers do. Flourishing combines performance with meaning and human energy. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Daniel reframes leadership as creating moments where people feel they matter both as individuals and as contributors to something bigger. That simple shift from managing performance to cultivating meaning changes everything.

What if the thing holding you back isn't effort, talent, or discipline, but what's happening inside your mind and body? In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh sits down with high-performance coach and author Brandon Epstein to unpack the hidden inner work behind elite performance. Brandon shares his journey from riding the bench as a college football player to mastering meditation, breathwork, and mental training that transformed his results and his life.

This week I'm bringing back an important conversation from the archives. Dr. Valerie discovered Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and created the only science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment by healing the collective, inherited trauma of oppression. She is also the author of Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment. I met Dr. Valerie at an event late last year. I serendipitously sat at her table and as she was talking about her work and her book, I was enamored. In fact, I invited her onto the podcast on the spot. Her work is important, interesting, and backed by science. When it comes to the patriarchy, as women, there is a deeper issue going on then the blame game. We are not going to heal by pointing fingers. My conversation with Dr. Valerie is just one step of many that will help move women towards healing from the patriarchy. In this episode you'll hear: How Dr. Valerie discovered PSD and how her search began with asking the question, “What is wrong with me?” Oppression is traumatic and it is deep in our DNA Patriarchy does not equal men and men do not equal patriarchy, patriarchy is a system that has been oppressive and disempowering to women PSD is the invisible inner barrier to women's happiness and fulfillment and trauma defenses: mind, body, and action Some of the symptoms or circumstances of PSD (and yes, we all have it) Dr. Valerie's message to men and how to bring them into the conversation and still take care of ourselves Resources mentioned in this episode: Devotion program Andrea's Substack, How Very Human of You Sign up for my emails Instagram reel about men and shame Dr. Valerie Rein's websiteDr. Valerie's 3 Minute Re-Power ToolDr. Valerie on InstagramBook: Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment Dr. Valerie Rein has discovered Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and created the only science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment by healing the collective, inherited trauma of oppression. She holds an EdM in Psychological Counseling from Columbia University and a PhD in Psychology from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Her bestselling book, “Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment” and her cutting-edge mind-body healing programs have helped thousands of women ditch the game of survival, of “how much can I bear?” and master the game of thriving, of “how good can it get?” Dr. Valerie is a sought-after speaker and trainer at conferences and companies committed to setting new standards of excellence in their industry in diversity, equity, and inclusion, employee satisfaction and physical and mental health, and creativity and innovation.

What If Your Next Shot… Your Next Sale… Your Next Decision… Is the One That Changes Everything? Today I've got one of your all-time favorite guests back on the show, and there's a reason the downloads go through the roof every time he's here. When I sit down with Alan Stein Jr, you get value in every single minute. We're talking about mindset, emotional control, confidence, intensity, and what it really takes to separate yourself from the pack. Alan's new book, Next Play, isn't just about sports. It's about life. It's about what you do after you miss the shot, lose the sale, get knocked down, or make a mistake you wish you could take back. We unpack what Alan calls having a “whiteboard memory.” The great ones erase the miss and step into the next moment like it never happened. Think about that. How many of us drag the last mistake into the next opportunity? How many people let one bad quarter, one breakup, one failure define their identity? Alan and I talk about why attaching your self-worth to outcomes is a trap. Confidence is not built on results. It's built on process, preparation, keeping the promises you make to yourself, and mastering the fundamentals. That's where real separation happens. We also dive into one of the most powerful lessons I've ever heard about excellence. Alan shares the story of working with Kobe Bryant at 3:30 in the morning. Not flashy drills. Not tricks. Just relentless attention to the basics. Kobe told him, “I never get bored with the basics.” That line alone could change your life. The great ones do not skip steps. They do not get distracted by hype. They obsess over mastery. And they stack that obsession for years. That is how you create separation no one can catch. But this episode is not just about performance. It's about fulfillment. Alan challenges the idea that we should chase happiness. Happiness is fleeting. Fulfillment is built. It's built through resilience, emotional regulation, accountability, and learning how to move to the next play without becoming a victim of the last one. We talk about parenting, leadership, business, relationships, and what to do when you're flat on the canvas and need a way forward. If you're in a season where you need a reset, this conversation is your blueprint. I'll tell you this. The most powerful thing Alan said today is that your next play can be your best play. Not because the last one was perfect, but because you learned from it. Your mistakes are not your identity. They are part of your collage. And if you're willing to forgive yourself, adjust, and step forward with intention, your next 50 years can be your best 50 years. This one will hit you right between the eyes in the best way possible. Key Takeaways: Why you must separate your emotions from your performance How to build confidence through process instead of outcomes The power of mastering the basics and stacking consistency over time What to do when you've failed and need to create your next play Why fulfillment beats chasing happiness every time How accountability and emotional regulation shape leaders and families If you're ready to stop replaying the last mistake and start attacking the next opportunity, this episode is for you. Let's go make your next play your best one. Max Out.

What if everything modern culture tells us about fulfillment is wrong? In this compilation episode, we explore the two foundational lies that drive much of our dissatisfaction and drift: the belief that chasing fame, wealth, and power will make us happy, and the belief that if we're comfortable, we're somehow doing it wrong. Discover how these lies shape the decisions we make, the ladders we climb, and the regrets we carry into our final days.We unpack the four idols that distract us from what actually matters, why deliberately choosing discomfort builds the capacity for everything else, and what the dying wish they had known sooner. Learn how to recognize when you're being pulled toward the wrong things, how to build a life around what truly fulfills you, and why thinking about death isn't morbid - it's the tool that helps you live fully right now.

Episode 3914: Kristine Klussman shares two transformative practices to uncover hidden meaning in even the most mundane parts of daily life. By intentionally shifting your emotional lens and capturing snapshots of personal significance, you can reframe ordinary experiences into a rich, joy-filled narrative of connection and purpose. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.kristineklussman.com/2-tips-for-finding-meaning-where-there-is-none/ Quotes to ponder: "At first, I walked around my house looking for things I loved, with just one question in mind: does this person, place or thing feel meaningful to me?" "What had seemed like unworthy objects of photography had coalesced into a beautiful collage of my life, a small treasure chest of cherished moments and beloved encounters that would normally be forgotten." "One of the most important skills in our quest to infuse more meaning and joy into your life is being able to make meaning, especially in activities we don't see as meaningful."
