Kelly Resendez on Purpose, Parenting, and Power What happens when a high-performing executive hits a wall—and decides to completely rewrite her life? In this powerful conversation, Kelly Resendez joins Jeff Dudan to talk about the wake-up call that shifted everything: her mindset, her career, her health, and how she parents. Kelly is the EVP of GoodLeap, founder of Big Voices, and co-founder of GoBundance Women. She's helped scale billion-dollar businesses while raising conscious, independent kids—and in this episode, she opens up about what it really takes to live with clarity, resilience, and purpose. In this episode: ✅ The bathtub moment that changed everything ✅ Why most people never change (and how to be the exception) ✅ Conscious parenting & raising kids without guilt ✅ From burnout to balance: how she reclaimed her energy ✅ The 4 mindset traps holding women back ✅ Why imposter syndrome can be a good thing ✅ Building powerful communities like GoBundance Women ✅ A real plan for scaling your business without sacrificing yourself Kelly also shares her morning routine, her mindset reset, and what she'd build if she had 30 days to start a brand-new business from scratch.  

In this episode, we explore one of the most powerful mindset tools high performers use: reframing.   You'll hear the inspiring story of Spanx founder Sara Blakely and how her father helped her see failure as a sign of courage and growth.   We break down how reframing allows you to reinterpret challenges with strength and optimism—turning setbacks into comebacks and adversity into fuel.   You'll learn: What reframing really is and why it's essential to high performance. Practical questions and tools to help you shift your perspective in real-time. Everyday examples—from tough conversations to public speaking—where reframing can give you an edge. Whether you're an athlete, coach, educator, or executive, this episode will help you see challenge through a new lens—and move forward with clarity and confidence.   Power Phrase: “I see challenge through the lens of growth. I flip the frame to fuel my strength and stride forward.” Quote of the Week: “When you change your story, you change your power.” – Brené Brown

You've achieved everything you were supposed to: a successful career, a full family life, the ability to get things done. And yet, you find yourself asking… Why don't I feel more satisfied? Why am I still not at peace? In this deeply personal episode of Playing Full Out, I step away from the quick tips and high-performance tools to share the truths we often don't talk about—the emotional toll of always being “on,” the subconscious fear of not being enough, and the secrets we keep even from ourselves in the name of success. I'll share: The silent weight many high achievers carry (but rarely name) Why constant busyness is often a mask for buried emotion The one question my coach asked that cracked open everything for me Why real peace doesn't come from doing more—but from telling the truth about what's driving you The difference between happiness and peace (and why most of us are chasing the wrong one) Whether you're in leadership, parenting, caregiving—or all three—this episode is an invitation to look under the surface, be honest about what you've been carrying, and discover that peace isn't earned... it's uncovered.

Matt Dixon: The Activator Advantage Matt Dixon is Founding Partner of DCM Insights, a global training and advisory firm, and a leading expert in business development and client experience. His first book The Challenger Sale was a #1 Amazon and Wall Street Journal bestseller, and translated in a dozen languages. His newest book with colleagues Rory Channer, Karen Freeman, and Ted McKenna is The Activator Advantage: What Today's Rainmakers Do Differently*. At lot of us know the traits of the kind of person who's successful at attracting new business. What many of us don't know, is that what's working today is actually different than what we traditionally think. In this conversation, Matt and I a take a detailed look at the professionals who are landing the most new business – and what they're doing that works. Key Points The loyalty that once existed between professionals and their clients has changed substantially in recent years. A type of professional called an activator represents the highest performance in business development. Activators assume their best clients will leave at some point and are consistently working to build a pipeline of opportunities. Many professionals tend to protect client relationships. In contrast, activators actively bring colleagues into these relationships. Activators don't wait for inquiries. They meet opportunities happen by building relationships before paid work begins. Activators go way past birthdays and factual knowledge about others. They discover what's important to their clients as individuals. Activators go way past “as is” content and work hard to thoughtfully connect it to a prospect or client's situation.

What do Tony Robbins, Russell Brunson, and Mandy Keene have in common? They're all high-level thinkers—but Mandy's the one helping the other two level up. In this enlightening episode, Tyler Jorgenson sits down with long-time friend and legendary performance coach Mandy Keene to explore the invisible roadblocks holding even the most successful entrepreneurs back. From imposter syndrome to misunderstood personality types, Mandy breaks down the truth behind what really drives high performers—and what secretly slows them down.With over 25 years of coaching experience, Mandy shares how growing up in a “self-help household” led her to become a coach at just 21. She dives into her work with understand.me, a platform that layers multiple personality assessments to help entrepreneurs lead better, build stronger teams, and operate in full alignment with their core strengths. Tyler and Mandy swap insights, jokes, and truths about the mental games entrepreneurs play—and how knowing your strengths isn't just self-help fluff, but an actual business advantage.The episode also takes a heart-centered turn as Mandy opens up about her recent divorce and how she reframed it not as a failure, but a graduation. She discusses the power of support systems, why even coaches need coaching, and how vulnerability and leadership go hand-in-hand. If you've ever wondered why success sometimes still feels unfulfilling, or how to finally lean into your unique genius, this conversation will absolutely resonate.------Top TakeawaysEven high performers battle fear and shame. Imposter syndrome isn't a beginner problem—many seven- and eight-figure entrepreneurs still face it daily.Personality isn't the whole picture—but it's a powerful starting point. Mandy explains how tools like DISC, Myers-Briggs, and Enneagram layered together give a holistic view of someone's “entrepreneurial avatar.”Your biggest growth might be in the place you're resisting the most. Whether it's leadership, team building, or confronting personal setbacks, the real magic happens when you lean into the discomfort.------Chapters00:00 Introduction to Performance Coaching02:45 The Journey to Becoming a Performance Coach04:52 Understanding Imposter Syndrome08:37 The Importance of Personality Assessments11:57 Leveraging Strengths for Success20:59 Leadership Challenges for Entrepreneurs24:14 Redefining Failure and Seeking Support27:47 Personal Aspirations and Future Goals

In this episode of Brokers of Secrets, William Lam reveals how your brain filters the world through a narrow lens shaped by subconscious programming, past experiences, and limiting beliefs. Most people live within these invisible boundaries, never realizing that their so-called “reality” is completely malleable. But once you understand the mechanics of your perception, you can consciously shift your mindset, unlock abundance, and begin designing a life that reflects your true potential.William breaks down the “design and resolve” method: a transformational process for reprogramming your internal filters. You'll learn how to clearly define what you want across health, relationships, and purpose, and how to resolve the emotional resistance and feelings of unworthiness that block you from alignment. From activating your Reticular Activation System (RAS) to recognizing emotions as signals for growth, this episode gives you practical tools to move beyond scarcity thinking and build a life of intentional, holistic abundance.

Sleep is one of the most powerful tools we have—but it's also one of the most overlooked. In this session, I shared how treating rest with the same discipline as business or athletics can create real, lasting results. The truth is, you can't give what you don't have. When you show up tired, you show up at half your potential. But when you prioritize sleep with intention, you increase clarity, energy, and emotional control. I broke down the simple habits that have helped me sleep better and live better—because how you go to bed determines how you show up tomorrow. Sleep isn't a reward for grinding hard. It's a responsibility to your future self. To join my next free Friday Training sessions, email me at david@dmeltzer.com

Great players want the truth."  It is not a company's job to give work-life balance to someone. And he is not balanced. He's on 24/7. It was refreshing to hear the real story from someone who is running a company. As Dr. Julie Gurner said on episode #538, “People will tell you in books that you have to live a 'balanced life,' but if we are completely honest, almost all great things are born from periods of imbalance.” Make the most of your 2% moments. 98% of the time, life is just happening… But every once in a while, you'll have the 2% opportunities. Like when he met his wife, or interviewed with Kendra Scott. It's on us as leaders to be ready to make the most of those 2% moments. Tom's relationship with Kendra: “We've been through so many hard things together.” Those hard times can forge a strong relationship, or they can break you. Remember that the next time you're going through something tough with someone else. It's an opportunity to fortify a relationship. Hiring - Play your position well. Know what you're good at. Don't have to like teammates, but do need to love them. Learn from mistakes. Work is like family. But you don't fire your family... Discipline comes from a place of love. Read: The Way of the Shepherd Goal maniac - After failing at his first job interview, he asked for another shot and showed up the next day with pages of goals. Tom's Strengths - immediate urgency, insatiable need to win, good problem solver, better when things are hard. How do you navigate slow walkers? It's hard. Need patience and thoughtfulness too. What are the must-haves to be hired as a leader with Tom? Good human. Win + Kindness + Compassion. Tom claims that he is not a good interviewer. Gets help from the team. It is a rigorous process. He wants people who have gone through hard things. "Living through struggle makes people better." Grit.
