Success can make you dangerous. But comfort can make you weak. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the poison of complacency and why staying hungry after the win is what keeps empires alive. Let's be real… Hitting a milestone is not the finish line. Making more money is not permission to get lazy. And yesterday's win does not protect you from tomorrow's competition. In this episode, you'll learn: Why yesterday's success does not guarantee future results How comfort can quietly destroy the habits that built your business Why founders must keep evolving even after major wins How relentless hunger protects your empire from decline The truth is simple: The market does not care what you did yesterday. Your competitors are still moving. Your clients still expect value. Your expenses still need attention. Your systems still need improvement. And your company still needs leadership. Most founders get a taste of success and start protecting comfort. High-level operators reset the standard. They stay humble. They keep auditing. They keep innovating. They treat every milestone as the starting line for the next mountain. Because comfort is a beautiful place… But nothing grows there. Do not let success make you soft. Stay focused. Stay aggressive. Keep climbing. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

In this episode, I sit down with Justin Ebert, hitting coach and recruiting coordinator at Greensboro College, to talk about what it really takes to develop as a hitter at the college level and what high school players and families should be doing right now to prepare.Justin shares how his background in psychology shapes the way he communicates with hitters, why mental resilience matters just as much as mechanics, and how he builds individualized routines that set guys up for success from day one.We also get into the recruiting side of things, how Greensboro evaluates players, what intangibles they look for beyond tools and stats, and how the transfer portal has changed the landscape for high school showcases.This conversation is especially valuable for high school players and families who want to understand what college coaches are actually looking for and how development, attitude, and fit can matter more than rankings or division level.Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 0:53 Justin's origin story and path from player to coach 3:46 Why psychology changed how Justin coaches and communicates 4:45 How he helps hitters manage failure and stay mentally even 6:10 The biggest gap for incoming freshmen, building a routine 7:31 How Justin builds individual drill routines for each hitter 8:30 Tee work and underhand toss philosophy at Greensboro 9:55 Where Justin learned his hitting philosophy and who influenced him 11:13 Using visual cues instead of mechanical adjustments 11:48 Batter's box positioning and two-strike approach 14:38 Justin's experience playing travel baseball with the Canes 16:31 What Justin learned coaching travel ball with Team Elite and the Canes 18:34 How the recruiting landscape has changed since he played 19:46 Players who surprised him during the recruiting process 21:10 How the transfer portal has changed showcase baseball 21:17 When Greensboro starts recruiting and how they build their classes 25:37 The type of player and person Greensboro looks for 26:58 Why Greensboro College baseball is a family and what makes it different 29:03 Life in Greensboro, the city, campus, and culture 30:16 Best local food spots in Greensboro 32:10 Campus life, housing, and living situation for players 33:46 Facilities and why coaching matters more than resources 35:27 What Justin will do differently in his second year as hitting coachFollow Greensboro Baseball: Twitter/X: @GCPrideBaseball Instagram: @GreensboroCollegeBaseball TikTok: @GCBaseballCheck Out Patrick's Stuff:•
You've hit milestones that once felt huge - and somehow, each time you got there, the feeling you were chasing had already moved on to the next thing. Anna Lundberg explores why hitting your goals never feels like enough, what's actually driving the pattern, and the slower work that changes it. Key takeaways: The milestone treadmill is real - and almost universal. This pattern runs through nearly every established independent Anna has worked with. The arrival keeps not quite arriving, across very different businesses and very different definitions of success. Milestones are solving for a feeling. The implicit deal - once I hit X, I'll feel Y - doesn't pay out, because the feeling doesn't come from the achievement. It comes from somewhere more internal, and slower. The goalpost moves because of a belief, not a lack of evidence. The question running underneath every milestone ("I'm legitimate, I belong here, I'm enough") predates the business. Stacking more proof doesn't resolve a belief. Plateaus are part of the pattern - and not what they feel like from inside. They're usually where the real integration work happens, not where everything stalls. The work that shifts the pattern is slow and usually needs outside support. Self-awareness helps you describe it. Getting outside of it is a different thing. Read more about Atelier, Anna's one-to-one coaching, at onestepoutside.com/atelier.
Falls Prevention After Stroke: What the Latest Research Reveals About Staying Safe and Mobile For many stroke survivors, the fear of falling is a constant companion. It’s there when you get up from the couch, when you navigate the kitchen, when you try to walk further than you did yesterday. That fear is rational, falls after a stroke are common, and their consequences can be serious. But according to Associate Professor Kate Scrivener, a stroke rehabilitation researcher at Macquarie University, that fear doesn’t have to define your recovery. In Episode 409 of the Recovery After Stroke podcast, Kate returns to the show where she first appeared in Episode 257 to discuss her HiWalk walking program and share the results of two major research projects: the published Phase II results of HiWalk, and a new systematic review focused specifically on exercise-based falls prevention after stroke. Who Is Kate Scrivener? Associate Professor Kate Scrivener leads stroke rehabilitation research at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. Her work sits at the intersection of real-world clinical practice and rigorous research. She doesn’t just study stroke recovery, she designs and tests the programs that can change it. Kate first appeared on this podcast to talk about HiWalk, a high-dose walking intervention designed to push the limits of what long-term stroke survivors can achieve. Now, with the results published, she’s back to talk about what the data actually showed and what it means for survivors who want to reduce their fall risk. The HiWalk Results: What Happened When 47 Survivors Walked Hard HiWalk was built on a straightforward but ambitious premise: what happens if stroke survivors, who have been living with their disability for years, are given a truly high-dose walking program? Not a gentle weekly session, but 43 hours of structured walking across just three weeks. The Phase II randomized trial enrolled 47 participants and produced results worth paying attention to. Attendance was 91%. Retention was 98%. For a physically demanding trial involving chronic stroke survivors, those numbers are remarkable, and they tell their own story about what survivors are capable of when given a real opportunity. For participants who were not already in active rehabilitation at the time of the trial, walking speed improved by 0.24 metres per second, a clinically significant gain. Self-efficacy, a measure of how confident participants felt in their own ability to walk and function, also improved significantly. The overall group walking speed trend was positive but did not reach statistical significance across the full cohort, partly because HiWalk was a Phase II feasibility trial, designed to test whether the program could be delivered safely and whether participants would complete it. It was not powered to detect large group-wide effects. What it demonstrated is that this kind of high-dose program is feasible, achievable, and produces real gains for the right participants. Why Falls Prevention After Stroke Is Harder Than It Sounds Falls after stroke are not simply a balance problem. They involve fatigue, reduced sensation, spasticity, cognitive changes, and the interaction between all of those things in the unpredictable terrain of daily life. Most stroke survivors are told to be careful. Very few are given a structured, evidence-based program designed specifically to reduce their risk. Kate’s systematic review, published in Clinical Rehabilitation in 2026, searched the global literature for exercise-based trials targeting falls prevention in community-dwelling stroke survivors. Only three trials worldwide met the inclusion criteria. That number alone says something significant. Falls after stroke are widely acknowledged as a major problem. The research base for solving it is thin. Of the three trials identified, exercise trended toward reducing the rate of falls, but the effect on the total number of people who fell was less clear. The standout result came from the FAST trial, which reduced fall rates by 33%. All three qualifying trials were conducted in Australia, raising important questions about whether these findings can be replicated in different healthcare systems with different levels of access to physiotherapy and structured exercise. What This Means for Stroke Survivors Right Now Kate’s research points to two things survivors and their families can act on. First, walking intensity matters. The HiWalk results suggest that long-term survivors who have plateaued in conventional rehabilitation may have more capacity than they or their clinicians assume. High-dose, structured walking appears to produce gains that lower-intensity programs don’t reach. If you’re a survivor who has been told to keep active but hasn’t been given a specific, progressive program, that’s worth a conversation with your physiotherapist. Second, exercise for falls prevention works, but it needs to be the right kind, delivered consistently. Gentle movement is valuable. But the evidence base Kate’s review maps out points toward structured, progressive exercise as the mechanism that shifts fall rates meaningfully. The FAST trial’s 33% reduction didn’t come from telling people to be more careful. It came from changing what they were physically capable of doing. Bill’s book, The Unexpected Way That A Stroke Became The Best Thing That Happened, explores the tools and mindset shifts that underpin a recovery built on action rather than waiting. You can find it at recoveryafterstroke.com/book. The Gap Between Research and Practice One of the most important threads in this conversation is the distance between what the research supports and what most survivors actually receive. Kate’s systematic review found only three qualifying trials globally. HiWalk’s feasibility results are published, but the next step, a large-scale Phase III trial, requires funding, time, and institutional will. For survivors, that gap can feel frustrating. The science is pointing in a clear direction. The programs aren’t yet widely available. Kate’s work is part of closing that distance.

Hour One In Full
The Edmonton Riverhawks find themselves at 6-11 through their first 17 games and looking to snap a three-game losing streak as they continue a critical road trip before returning home next week. Riverhawks Head Coach Jake Lanferman joins the show to assess where his club stands compared to expectations coming out of spring camp, whether the record accurately reflects the way his team has played and where he's seen the most growth since Opening Day. We'll also discuss the factors behind the slow start, the consistency of the pitching staff and whether a few costly innings have been the difference between several wins and losses. Coach Lanferman shares what the Riverhawks look like when they're playing their best baseball and identifies the areas that still need to improve if the club is going to climb the standings. Plus, we take a look at the ever-changing nature of summer collegiate baseball, including the possibility of roster additions as the season progresses and where the organization may be looking to add depth. We'll also spotlight one of the brightest stories of the season so far, as Easton Andrews continues to tear up the West Coast League. Hitting .404 and leading the league with 23 RBIs, Andrews has been a driving force offensively, and Coach explains what makes him such a difficult matchup for opposing pitchers. Finally, we discuss the importance of this road trip, the leadership voices emerging inside the clubhouse and why Lanferman remains confident that this team has its best baseball ahead of it despite the challenging start.

I came across a video of an owl, and the moment it locked onto its prey, everything changed. Its wide, searching eyes narrowed into pure, locked-in focus. That image stopped me cold because it is exactly what most of us refuse to do when we finally see what we want. In this episode, I break down why staying open to options is actually a form of self-sabotage, why tolerating less than you deserve is a choice you keep making, and how shifting from chasing goals to setting new floors is the only way to stop falling back to where you started. If you have been telling yourself you are not competitive or that killer instinct is not in you, I am calling that out directly. Key Takeaways Locking in on what you truly want requires narrowing your focus, not keeping your options open. Saying you are not competitive is a lie. You have not yet found the opportunity that activates that instinct in you. Tolerating less than your potential is a choice, and every time you make it, you tell yourself you do not deserve better. Hitting a goal and slipping back happens when you treat the goal as a ceiling instead of a new floor. Your apex predator is already inside you. The trigger is finding what matters to you badly enough to go all in. Action Steps Identify the one goal or pursuit that genuinely keeps you awake at night and write down exactly why it matters to you personally. Audit one area of your life where you have been tolerating less than your standard and make a single, concrete decision today to raise that floor. When you reach your next milestone, pause and declare it your new minimum standard before you reopen your eyes to the next opportunity. Notable Quote The second you see what you really want, not just what is available, you have to go for it. When it is go time, it has to be time to go.
