Podcasts about high performers

Jim Oliver sits down with Dr. Tracy Gapin, a former urologist who walked away from traditional medicine after nearly three decades inside a system built to manage disease, not build performance. Most high earners obsess over ROI in their portfolio while ignoring the assets that produce the return in the first place: Energy, focus, libido, sleep.  Dr. Gapin explains why modern healthcare is reactive by design. You get a diagnosis, a prescription, and you move on. That model works well in a crisis but it doesn't work if your goal is to perform at a high level into your 80s and beyond. Jim brings it back to something simple: once you realize you're unlikely to run out of money, the real risk becomes running out of health. In This Conversation Why "I'm fine" is often the most dangerous phrase  What's going on with your 2–3 a.m. wake-ups Why sleep is the multiplier for muscle, hormones, and recovery Why sexual performance is often a cardiovascular signal Why most online "research" compounds are a gamble The problem with chasing peptides  Dr. Gapin's perspective on testosterone  The Bigger Idea: If you see yourself as someone who is aging and declining, your behaviors follow. If you see yourself as someone building strength and capability for the next 30 years, your decisions shift. Health is not a side project - it's built on intentionally constructed infrastructure that determines how long you can stay in the game.

In this episode, host Taylor Thomas breaks down why high performers lose their edge, not from laziness, but from tolerated drift. We'll explore the difference between goals and standards, how success can quietly soften urgency, and why what you walk past eventually becomes your culture. This episode is for athletes, founders, executives, and leaders who feel slightly off, not burned out, not broken, just not as sharp as they know they can be. If you've felt the slow erosion of intensity, clarity, or integrity… this conversation will help you reset the standard.

When does "high performance" become a liability? In this episode of The Leadership Hustle, Andrea Fredrickson and Michelle Hill tackle a workplace blind spot that affects nearly every executive team: the protected high performer. These individuals may deliver results or have influential connections, but their behavior, if unchecked, can slowly corrode team trust, culture, and retention. Discover why leaders protect certain people, how bias clouds accountability, and what it's really costing your company to look the other way. If you're protecting someone you think you can't afford to lose, this episode might make you rethink everything. For more resources on developing leadership skills visit us at Revela.

You can look “fine” on paper and still feel like you're constantly bracing for impact. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, clinical psychologist Bryan Gastelle breaks down how evidence-based psychology actually works in day-to-day life, not just inside a therapy room. This conversation is for high-functioning adults, entrepreneurs, and neurodivergent listeners who are tired of pushing harder and want practical ways to understand their brain, spot what's triggering them, and build emotional regulation that feels sustainable, not like another task. About the Guest: Bryan Gastelle is a clinical psychologist and founder of Empower Psychotherapy, a fully virtual group practice serving adults, couples, and families across multiple states. He focuses on ADHD, anxiety, burnout, and relationships. Episode Chapters: 00:05:14 — Meet Bryan: Tucson, time zones, and setting the theme 00:07:39 — When success still feels like overwhelm 00:09:05 — Why high achievers come to therapy: burnout vs. functioning 00:11:04 — Why “push harder” fails: automatic thoughts and perfection pressure 00:12:40 — ADHD patterns: big-picture strengths, execution struggles, and shame loops 00:14:19 — Relationships under pressure: standards, panic, and how couples fight 00:18:38 — Practical tools: vulnerability factors, triggers, boundaries, delegation Key Takeaways: Separate “functioning” from “being mentally well” — they're not the same thing. For anxiety, watch for automatic thoughts like perfection rules or catastrophe predictions. For ADHD, identify triggers like complex, multi-step demands and build supports (reminders, structure). Track vulnerability factors first: sleep, caffeine, diet, and stress load. For burnout, name the real driver and get serious about boundaries, delegation, and after-hours limits. Progress is practice, not perfection: look for what you're avoiding and what it's costing you.

John Bielinski Jr. built a life many people chase. Marine. Emergency medicine clinician. Endurance athlete. Respected teacher. On paper, everything looked right. Inside, everything started to fall apart. In this episode of The Authority Company Podcast, Joe Pardavila sits down with John to talk about what happens when discipline outruns emotional truth. John opens up about building a life driven by ego, ambition, and achievement, then watching it collapse through burnout, addiction, and the slow breakdown of his marriage and health. He shares how losing control forced him to face a harder question. Who was he becoming when no one was watching? You hear how John learned to stop blaming circumstances and start owning his choices. From getting fired early in his medical career to confronting his drinking, John explains why responsibility, not motivation, became the turning point. The conversation also goes deep into leadership, masculinity, and balance. John explains why strength without humility turns destructive, and how real leadership shows up through service, not dominance. He breaks down how high performers drift into imbalance, where work wins while family, health, and happiness quietly suffer. John also talks openly about fatherhood, missed moments, and the fear of passing broken patterns to the next generation. He shares how he rewrote old narratives rooted in trauma and learned to respond to life instead of reacting from old wounds. This episode centers on one clear truth. You do not change your life by working harder. You change your life by taking responsibility for who you are, how you show up, and why you do what you do. John's book, How to Correct Your Life: Practical Tools for Those Who Lead, Fight, and Build, grows out of this journey. This conversation gives you the real story behind those pages. If you lead, build, or carry the weight of responsibility, this episode speaks straight to you.

His business is growing. He's just become a dad. And everything feels harder. Not because he's disorganised. Not because he lacks discipline. Not because he needs better time management. But because he's internally divided. In this episode, I break down the hidden psychological conflict that shows up when ambitious founders become fathers — the tension between performance, partnership, fitness, and identity. We look at: Why “doing more” won't fix this The baseline anxiety most new dads never name How people-pleasing habits quietly sabotage high standards And how integrating your competing internal parts restores clarity and capacity High performance isn't about squeezing more into your day. It's about increasing your capacity to handle more — without resentment, guilt, or internal chaos. Elite mental fitness is a sets and reps game. Put the reps in.

Complex problems don't require complex leaders.They require clear thinkers and humble decision-makers.In this episode of the Olympic Minds podcast, Sherry Winn speaks with Edgar Escobar, COO of ALTO, about why the most effective leaders stop trying to be the smartest person in the room—and start building teams that think, learn, and solve together.Here are some Key Highlights from this episode:- How to break massive challenges into manageable wins- Why ego is the fastest way to stall growth- How real leadership multiplies capability across a teamThis is a masterclass in modern leadership without ego.Listen now and ask yourself: Am I building my team—or competing with it?Guest: Edgar EscobarHost: Sherry WinnSound: Mahesh R.Producer: Archita Puranik#TALRadioenglish #leadership #capability #touchalife #TALRadio

Pressure. If you let it, it'll OWN you. Hijack your mind. Speed up your heart. Leave you spiraling before you even make a move. Ever think you can just "gut it out" in pressure situations? That rarely works. And the truth is, pressure isn't the problem. Your perspective is. That's why I brought mental performance expert, Dr. Cory Shaffer, onto the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show. Cory has trained Navy Special Operators, pro athletes, executives, and the nation's top athletic programs. He's made his mark teaching elite performers how to shrink the pressure moments down to size and manage the moment before the moment manages them. So if you're tired of pressure fueling your doubt, and you're ready to step into those high-stakes moments with calm, clarity, and COMMAND, then lock into this episode! In this episode, you'll hear: How to manage pressure by shifting your perspective instead of letting it control you Why meditation is a practical tool for presence and preparation Simple reflection practices busy executives and athletes can use to separate work from home life The dangers of "bro science" and how to filter out bad advice from true performance principles The power of the 20-Mile March and why consistent effort beats unsustainable sprints How small daily habits add up to long-term growth, confidence, and sustained success KEY QUOTES "The better you understand the variables that were present when you had success, the more likely you can replicate that success." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "The tortoise won the race because he stayed disciplined to the task at hand." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Leverage your technology to work for you instead of against you." – Dr. Cory Shaffer CONNECT WITH CORY X: https://x.com/coryshafferphd LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cory-shaffer-1a09816/ Website: https://www.youandkin.com/ CONNECT WITH J.R.

Want to know the quiet rules that high performers follow — even when life is fighting back? After 20 years and over 5,200 episodes, I've watched successful people up close. They're not always the smartest or the most talented. But they follow a simple set of rules that most people skip right past. In this episode, I break down the rules I keep coming back to — the ones that show up in every winning life I've ever seen. They're not complicated. You've probably heard them before. Now it's time to actually do them. Featured Story Saturday afternoon, I walk in at 3:30 for rehearsal, and everything is still in the boxes. I run audio for the church I go to — it's a portable setup that breaks down after every service and lives in a trailer until the next one. I never assume it's going to be ready. Never. So I always show up early. That day, it was a three-person job and I had 30 minutes. But because I never assumed, I was there in time to get it done. That one habit — never assuming — shows up everywhere in a winning life. And once you see it, you can't unsee it. Important Points Find your strongest why, make it personal, and you'll outwork, outlast, and outperform almost anyone in your path. Showing up consistently is the one rule that creates legacy — 5,200 episodes prove it works every single time. Taking ownership of everything in your life — even the mess you didn't make — puts you back in the driver's seat. Memorable Quotes "I showed up for 20 years, did over 5,000 episodes, and AI tells new listeners every day that I'm the real deal." "Accept responsibility for everything, even the stuff you didn't want — then you're back in control, and you win." "When your why is stronger than the next person's, you win — it doesn't matter what the competition looks like." Scott's Three-Step Approach Get crystal clear on your strongest why — it becomes the fuel that drives every decision from this point forward. Commit to showing up consistently and on time — it signals seriousness and separates you from almost everyone else. Never give up total control to others and accept full responsibility for everything — that's how winners think.

Ever feel like you're winning on the scoreboard… but losing in the locker room? You're productive. Disciplined. Respected. You execute at a high level professionally. But at home? You're distracted. Short-tempered. Mentally checked out. Present… but not really there. Here's the hard truth: Performance without alignment creates internal friction. And friction, over time, costs you the very things you say matter most. In this episode of the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show, we break down what's really happening when high-performing men dominate in one arena of life but drift in another. Because this isn't a time-management issue. It's an identity issue. And until you close the gap between who you are at work and who you are at home… you'll keep feeling that low-grade tension you can't quite explain. If you're serious about building a thriving family without sacrificing excellence — this one's for you. In this episode, you'll hear:   Why compartmentalizing your life is silently draining your energy and impact The real reason high achievers struggle to "turn it off" at home How identity leakage creates disconnection in marriage and fatherhood A practical framework to transition from performance mode to presence mode The leadership standard your family actually needs from you KEY QUOTES "Pressure becomes overwhelming when the moment controls you instead of you controlling the moment." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Just because someone claims they're an expert doesn't mean they are. There's a difference between science and bro science." – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Do you want it to look good, or do you want it to work?" – Dr. Cory Shaffer "Winning isn't about sprinting. It's about showing up tomorrow with enough energy to do it again." – J.R. CONNECT WITH DR.

This Mindset Debrief episode is a short-form reflection on personal accountability, discipline, and self-leadership for people navigating pressure, responsibility, and growth. In this episode, we focus on: how tying your identity to your performance slowly erodes your sense of self.If you've ever wondered who you'd be without your job title, your results, or your reputation as the one who fixes everything, this episode is for you. It starts with a simple pressure test: take away the role, the output, and the constant problem-solving, and see what's left. A lot of high performers don't just do the work, they become the work. That's role engulfment: when one role consumes your entire self-concept and everything else gets pushed aside. The provider. The leader. The rock. The expert. The person who's always “on.” And when you confuse what you do with who you are, uncertainty starts feeling like failure, not information. This is where the performance trap shows up. If you're constantly producing, leading, and fixing, it can feel like you're disappearing the moment you stop. The episode pushes on that fear, and it separates presence from output. People don't just need results, they need you to actually be there. It also hits the guilt that shows up when you try to rest. When “doing nothing” feels wrong, recovery turns into weakness, and exhaustion starts getting treated like a badge. This episode reframes rest as a requirement for doing the work well, not a reward you earn after the work is done. The thread that ties it together is accountability without control. Own standards and actions, but stop tying identity to outcomes you can't fully control. The goal isn't to quit your roles. It's to stop letting them swallow you.Share this episode with someone who could benefit from the information.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.com

Why high performers burn out quietly is something many leaders don't think about until it suddenly shows up as disengagement, lost energy, or unexpected turnover. The most dependable people rarely raise their hand to say they're overwhelmed, which makes their burnout easy to miss and expensive to ignore.

Not because you're fragile - but because your nervous system interprets social evaluation as threat.In this episode, with Dr Amen Kaur we unpack:Why one public mistake can trigger shame, overthinking, and loss of confidenceThe neuroscience of social-evaluative threat (prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and status perception)Why high-achievers are more vulnerable to spiraling after mistakesThe hidden link between competence, identity, and fear of judgmentWhy trying to “think your way out” often makes it worseHow regulation - not self-criticism - restores clarity and decisive actionYou'll learn why your brain reacts so strongly to perceived status loss, why reassurance rarely fixes it, and how internal regulation is the foundation for confident leadership.This episode is for high-performers, founders, leaders, and capable women who are tired of losing momentum after one mistake and are ready to move forward without outsourcing their confidence.If this resonates, and you're looking for a space to stabilise this process long-term, there are deeper ways to work together.

Have you ever noticed that subtle internal shift before you speak up?The quiet bracing.The self-editing.The sense that your truth might cost you something.For many high performers, this pressure shows up before the conversation even begins. Not because something is wrong, but because your nervous system learned to stay safe by managing yourself in moments of authority, hierarchy, or relational power.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly introduces the Recognition stage of Identity-Level Recalibration. This is the stage where nothing needs to be fixed, solved, or optimized.This episode explores:Why high performers often feel pressure or tension before speaking, even when they're capable and prepared.How the nervous system responds first, and the story follows to explain the sensation.Why bracing and self-editing are not weaknesses, but once-useful strategies.How managing yourself quietly became a form of safety in leadership relationships.Why paying attention to your body can feel vague or unprofessional, and why that reaction makes sense.How body awareness is a legitimate form of data you may not have been taught to read yet.What Recognition really means inside Identity-Level Recalibration.Why awareness alone creates movement, even without immediate action.Season 4 is focused on integration, not information.Earlier seasons explored the psychology and nervous system science behind this work. This season walks the recalibration pathway in real time, through daily micro moments, so insight becomes embodied rather than intellectual.This episode is especially relevant if any of the following feel familiar:You feel pressure before conversations that matter.You notice yourself bracing or self-editing around authority.You are successful on paper, but sense an internal strain you can't explain.You are navigating leadership relationships without final authority.You want sustainable alignment rather than another strategy.Today's Micro Recalibration:The next time you notice yourself bracing before a conversation, ask quietly:What did my body notice before my mind explained?No fixing, just awareness.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Burnout isn't a weakness—it's often the side effect of carrying responsibility under constant pressure. This episode explores how high performers can protect their mental health without lowering their standards. If you work in conflict-heavy environments (law, leadership, business, high-stakes roles), you'll learn how to shift from outcome-chasing to process mastery, build boundaries that improve efficiency, and borrow recovery habits from sports psychology. About the Guest: Jane Muir is a Miami business law attorney and managing shareholder at Jay Muir & Associates. She shares lessons from her own burnout recovery and her work in high-conflict legal environments. Episode Chapters: 00:03:00 Burnout from responsibility, not weakness 00:04:24 Is burnout “the price of ambition”? 00:06:22 The boundary that changed everything: laptop closed at 6pm 00:07:47 Stop outsourcing happiness to outcomes 00:09:12 “With Winning in Mind”: how top performers get in the zone 00:12:08 Early burnout signs: negativity, frustration, inner critic 00:16:04 Reset after setbacks: reflect, move forward, take breaks, gratitude Key Takeaways: Set a hard stop time to force focus and efficiency. Train for process consistency, not emotional rollercoasters of wins/losses. Use daily self-talk and affirmations to stabilize self-image under pressure. Create simple work-start rituals to enter a flow state faster. When setbacks hit: reflect on progress, then re-engage with “what's next.” 5.

When you're a high performer, you learn to endure. You adapt, take on more, carry a lot for others, and figure it out. And because nothing breaks, you keep going on momentum and autopilot. But there's a moment that quietly determines your next decade, one that doesn't look like failure or feel like a crisis. It's when the internal alignment between your life and who you are today has quietly expired, and you're still living by rules you wrote for yourself 20 years ago. In this episode, I'm sharing why 'success drift' is far more dangerous than failure for high performers, and the strategic reset that helps you recalibrate before the cost gets higher. This isn't about fixing what's broken, but examining the gap between who you were when you started and who you've become, then updating the internal operating system that's running your life. You'll learn how to recognize the subtle signs that you're drifting instead of intentionally leading, why great leaders pause early before misalignment becomes painful, and the questions that reveal what still fits and what no longer does. Because you don't need a new goal, you need a clear relationship with the life you're already living so you can assess what you're ready for today, not ten years ago. Our mission is to help you become unstoppable, enabling you to do your best work of your career while enjoying more inner peace and freedom.

In this episode of Success Leaves Clues, hosts Robin and Al sit down with executive leadership coach and strategic advisor Christine Farrugia for a deeply grounded conversation about success, fulfillment, and decision-making in complex leadership roles. Christine shares why so many high performers feel empty despite doing “everything right” on paper, and how chasing inherited definitions of success quietly erodes energy, confidence, and clarity. The conversation explores the powerful concept of “the gap versus the gain,” why comparison steals momentum, and how leaders can reconnect with progress by recognizing daily wins instead of endlessly moving goalposts. Robin, Al, and Christine also unpack how leaders make decisions when data is incomplete, stakes feel high, and ambiguity is unavoidable. Christine offers practical insight into trusting intuition, distinguishing reversible versus irreversible decisions, and stepping out of fear-based paralysis. The episode weaves together leadership, values, customer-centricity, and personal growth, emphasizing that clarity comes from alignment, not achievement alone. Christine also shares how leaders can identify misalignment between personal values and organizational culture, and why many perceived conflicts are stories worth examining more closely. You'll hear about: Why high performers often feel unfulfilled despite outward success The difference between chasing success and defining it for yourself The “gap versus the gain” framework and how it changes motivation How comparison quietly drains confidence and joy Daily wins as a leadership discipline, not a productivity trick Making decisions when data is incomplete and pressure is high Reversible versus irreversible leadership decisions Trusting intuition without abandoning logic What customer-centricity really looks like beyond metrics Values alignment, culture, and leadership integrity Navigating perceived misalignment between personal and company values Strategic influence as a leadership superpower We talk about: 00:00 Introduction and welcome 01:00 Christine's leadership background and coaching work 02:30 Why success often feels empty for high performers 04:30 Defining success for yourself at different life stages 06:30 The gap versus the gain and how comparison steals momentum 09:00 Recognizing progress and celebrating daily wins 11:30 Gratitude, habits, and leadership energy 14:00 Decision-making in ambiguity and high-stakes environments 17:00 Reversible versus irreversible leadership decisions 20:00 Trusting intuition when data is incomplete 23:00 Customer-centricity beyond dashboards and metrics 26:00 Values, culture, and perceived misalignment at work 29:00 Strategic influence and getting things done through others 32:00 Leadership growth through self-awareness and inner work 35:00 The signature question, planting trees for the future Connect with Christine LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinefarrugia/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachwithchristine/ Website: https://www.christinefarrugia.com/ Connect with Us LinkedIn: Robin Bailey and Al McDonald Website: Aria Benefits and Life & Legacy Advisory Group

In today's episode, I sit down with Josh Zolin, CEO of Windy City Equipment Service, to talk about why even high performers feel stuck despite success. We unpack how the meaning we assign to our past quietly limits potential, fuels imposter syndrome, and creates interference through fear, separation, and the need to be right. I share how presence and ambition coexist, why non negotiable daily behaviors matter more than goals, and how surrender is really about stopping what interferes. We also explore values over outcomes, asking for help as humility, and why consistent habits remove resistance faster than motivation ever will.

What if pushing harder isn't strength—but the start of disconnection? This live episode explores the hidden cost of “powering through” and why endurance without awareness can quietly erode well-being. Hosted by Yusuf on Healthy Waves, this conversation is for leaders, founders, and high achievers who look strong on the outside but feel stretched within. You'll hear how redefining strength can restore clarity, connection, and sustainable resilience—without killing ambition. About the Guest: Alain Luxembourg works with leaders and high performers to rethink success, identity, and family integration. Based in the Netherlands, he brings lived experience of rebuilding identity after pressure and loss. Key Takeaways: Mental strength without awareness often leads to burnout and emotional absence Real resilience begins with honest conversations and asking for help Progress works best when goals are broken into small, achievable steps Relationships thrive when attention and gratitude replace comparison Ambition and mental health can coexist with intentional pacing How to Connect With the Guest: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alainluxembourg/    Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

High performers track metrics—but often miss the deeper patterns shaping decisions, resilience, and blind spots. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan explores how astrology can add a practical layer of self-awareness for leaders who've hit an invisible ceiling. Guest Aleksandra Ceho explains what she frequently sees in entrepreneurs' charts—discipline, passion, nervous-system overload—and how these traits can influence risk tolerance, stress responses, and recovery from setbacks. This episode is for founders and executives who want clearer pattern recognition, steadier energy, and a healthier relationship with failure. About the Guest: Aleksandra Ceho is an astrologer with over 20 years of professional practice. She integrates astrology with Hermetic philosophy and works with entrepreneurs and executives to identify strengths, blind spots, and personal development lessons. Key Takeaways: Look for the “invisible ceiling”: strong output can still hide a missing growth key. Discipline often shows as Earth emphasis, Saturn/Mars strength, or 10th-house focus. Passion is a resilience driver—without it, consistency can slide into burnout and apathy. Heavy Mercury/Air signatures may require nervous-system support to prevent overload. Mars-led decision makers tend to take bolder risks; Saturn-led leaders prefer proof and data. After setbacks, don't just “fix it”—identify what contributed so you don't repeat it.

94% of U.S. adults are metabolically unhealthy. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr, internal medicine physician and hyperbaric oxygen therapy expert, to unpack how damaged mitochondria, toxins, mold, and chronic stress trap the body in a sympathetic “spiral of doom,” making true healing impossible. We explore why trying to calm the nervous system without cellular support can backfire, the overlooked role of GABA in mood and sleep, when hyperbaric oxygen actually helps, and practical strategies to finally shift out of survival mode, because taking care of yourself isn't selfish, it's the foundation of real health.

I'm so excited to share today’s episode with you, because this conversation really stayed with me long after we stopped recording. Today, I'm joined by James Laughlin, author of Habits of High Performers, and we dive deep into something that quietly shapes every part of our lives: our habits. Not the big dramatic ones, but the small daily choices that, over time, determine how we live, work and feel. What I love about James’ approach is that high performance is not about doing more. It is about doing what truly matters, consistently and with intention, while still protecting your wellbeing, relationships and sense of purpose. T This conversation felt so aligned with everything I believe in and teach, especially inside our GROW Personal Growth Book Club and DL Coaching programs. In this episode, we explore: Why getting radically clear on what you want is the foundation for everything else How your belief systems quietly shape your decisions, confidence and results The role of purpose in creating sustainable motivation and fulfilment We also talk about journaling, priorities, boundaries, and how to stay focused in a world full of distractions. It's a grounded, honest and inspiring conversation that gently invites you to reflect on your own habits and ask whether they are truly supporting the life you want to create. Listen with an open heart, a notebook nearby if you can, and a willingness to reflect. Sometimes the smallest shifts create the biggest change. As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonated most with you - so please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here. …and remember, it all starts with a dream

In this episode of the Guns & Mental Health podcast, Michael Sodini and Kevin Berry sit down with Charles Anderson, CEO in the firearms media world behind Bleeker Street Publications, Athlon Outdoors, and its family of brands.What starts as a chance bar conversation at NASGW turns into a powerful, honest discussion about what it looks like to live with mental health struggles while building a high profile career. Charles shares his path from growing up poor in a wealthy New York town, to the high pressure brokerage world later portrayed in The Wolf of Wall Street, to venture capital, and eventually to becoming one of the most influential voices in firearms media.Along the way, he breaks down the reality of imposter syndrome, why “success” does not protect anyone from dark moments, and the coping framework that helped him survive when nothing else felt believable.

What does it really mean to be "successful" as a high performer… and still feel well? In this episode, I'm joined by Cherylanne Skolnicki — founder and CEO of Brilliant Balance, speaker, and former Procter & Gamble executive — for a rich, honest conversation about ambition, energy, and the seasons of life we all move through. We talk about how the pursuit of more can leave high performers feeling maxed out, even when things look good on paper and how redefining success through the lens of energy, relationships, and life alignment is key to building something sustainable. Cherylanne shares the pivotal moments that took her from corporate leadership to entrepreneurship, how she teaches women to curate their calendars (instead of letting them run the show), and how perfectionism and outdated expectations are silently draining us. You'll hear us explore: What it looks like to honor your current life season Why many women feel disconnected, overextended, or stuck How to manage your energy with clarity and intuition The role of ambition, rest, and recovery in high performance Permission to rewrite what success looks like for you in this season If you've been feeling out of sync or wondering why success doesn't feel the way you hoped, this episode will help you reconnect to what matters most and move forward with more purpose, peace, and clarity.

Listen now!   Today's Guest  Dr. Julie Gurner  Dr. Julie Gurner is a doctor  psychology and executive performance coach who works with high-level executives, founders, and elite performers in tech, finance, and other high-stakes industries.

Dr. K examines the psychological profiles of billionaires, CEOs, and elite creators to reveal that their success often stems from being "broken in the right way". He challenges the idea that high performance is just about financial advantage, focusing instead on the internal insecurities and psychological pressures that drive exceptional people to outwork everyone else. What to expect in this episode: • The Performance Trap: How growing up with conditional love creates a lifelong insecurity that can only be quieted by achieving at a very high level. • Healthy Entitlement: Why elite achievers have the agency to leave toxic situations and the confidence to ask for help rather than complaining about the world's unfairness. • The Contentment Debuff: Why the biggest difference between high and low performers is the refusal to feel satisfied after finishing a simple taskHG Coaching : https://bit.ly/46bIkdo Dr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3SztHG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQ Learn more about your ad choices.

Most people think attachment is dedication. In reality, it's often fear wearing a productive mask. In this episode, Lori and I talk about why detachment is one of the most powerful skills you can build as a high performer and the 4 areas where attachment quietly sabotages your growth. I share a pivot that could've ended one of our biggest ventures if I had stayed married to the original plan. Lori also opens up about releasing the need to be seen and how that shift changed everything. Tune in and learn how letting go is the fastest way to move forward.   HIGHLIGHTS Why "unattachment" is your greatest business superpower. How detachment saved our $2.5M Fintech mission when we were told we couldn't launch. The leadership shift that comes from letting go of credit. Worrying about what it looks like to others leads to bad decisions. Letting go of timelines so you stop living in waiting energy. How detachment frees you from anxiety, comparison, and "needy" energy.   RESOURCES Apply for the Elite Entrepreneur Mastermind HERE!

If your business dies the moment you take a week off, you have a job rather than an asset, and this is why high performers burn out. They teach a client everything they know for a one-time fee, only for that client to walk away.Because you only got paid once, you try to find another person with the right personality and skills to teach every few months to stay afloat. It also prevents you from sharing the long-term rewards of the success you create in others.But what if there's a business model where you can be a mentor who gets rewarded for the ongoing success of your team?In this Diamond Life Mentor Uncut episode, Balazs W Kardos shares how high performers burnout and what to do to manage it with a dream team where everybody wins.You will hear powerful insights and motivation around:Leveling up your business partnersTargeting high-level business ownersWhy high performers burn outMaking residual income in network marketingFinding the right people with their pain points and skillsCreating a sustainable business modelTwo of Balazs W Kardos' strategies are joining a high-ticket and sustainable business and partnering with people who have relevant skills and community.Once you choose the high-ticket network marketing model and work smart for three to five years, showing up becomes more optional than a requirement because your team duplicates your systems. You earn the right to pick when you want to be visible, and you grow your income from the residual impact you have made on a large group of successful people."Continue that same hustle, work hard, be smart, build your business for three to five years, and then everything becomes optional. - Balazs W Kardos"Your current business model is the reason you have no time.

What if feeling energized, fit, and disciplined on the outside was quietly masking stress, oxidative damage, and long-term burnout on the inside?     On today's Unsolved Health Mystery Case, I sit down with Troy Casey to review his Minerals & Metals Test and uncover what his labs reveal beneath the surface.     Despite a clean diet, consistent movement, fasting, and high-performance habits, Troy's results show clear patterns of elevated stress response, oxidative load, and a more catabolic state, all common in driven, high-output individuals.     Together, we break down how chronic stress, long-term fasting, and constant energy expenditure can deplete mineral reserves, strain the nervous system, and quietly accelerate aging, even when someone appears healthy and symptom-free.     We discuss why mineral ratios tell a far deeper story than individual nutrient levels, how these imbalances impact hormones, brain health, and recovery, and what it really takes to balance performance with longevity.     So join me on today's Cabral Concept 3644 to discover what your own labs may be revealing about stress, fueling, recovery, and long-term vitality, and how shifting from constant output to sustainable balance can protect your health for decades to come.     Enjoy the show!   - - -   For Everything Mentioned In Today's Show: StephenCabral.com/3644 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?
