Are you living 90% of your life on repeat? What if the relentless chase for achievement is robbing you of the joy you're working so hard to find? In this conversation with Dr. Tiffany Moon, we unpack what happens when you hit all the milestones, check all the boxes, and still feel something's missing. She's a board-certified anesthesiologist, entrepreneur, mom of twins—and yes, you might know her from The Real Housewives of Dallas—but today, you'll get to see the side of her that's about living fully, not just performing perfectly. Tiffany shares how the pressure to be perfect nearly drained her of laughter and real connection, and what it took to reclaim her joy. We talk about what it's like to break free from family and cultural conditioning that says you're only loved when you're achieving, and how learning to embrace small moments—rolling on the floor with your kids, taking walks, having deep conversations—can transform how you feel about your life without sacrificing ambition. We also hit on the fear of trying something new when you're already “good” at what you do, why we say no to opportunities that could open up our lives, and how stepping out of your lane doesn't mean failure, it means growth. Tiffany shares her experience from the O.R. to the Housewives stage and the mindset shift that allowed her to stop suffocating joy in the name of control. You don't have to abandon your drive to be excellent, but you do need to learn how to find joy while you're achieving, not after. If you've been running on empty while chasing “success,” this conversation will remind you to slow down, breathe, and remember how far you've already come. Key Takeaways: Why achievement alone doesn't equal fulfillment—and what actually does The cost of saying “no” too quickly and how to open yourself to new experiences How to break free from the pressure to be perfect so you can actually live Why small moments of connection can fuel your ambition, not hinder it The power of embracing pockets of joy in the middle of your climb Let's stop running the same chapter over and over. Your life is worth living fully, not just perfectly. Let's get it.

In a world that constantly pushes doubt, fear, and self-criticism, the real growth begins the moment you start believing again—believing in your worth, your potential, and your future. In this uplifting episode, Brendon dives into why faith isn't just a spiritual concept—it's a strategy for personal development and lifelong fulfillment: Have Faith in Yourself – Speak to yourself with intention, power, and kindness—because your words shape your identity. Have Faith in Others – Strengthen your relationships and leadership by choosing belief over judgment. Have Faith in Your Future – Reignite your dreams and take aligned action, even in uncertain times. _____________________________________ Whether you're in a season of self-doubt or looking to reconnect with your inner power, this episode will inspire you to build a deeper foundation of self-trust—and begin your next chapter with clarity and confidence. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!
Remember being little, and how natural it was to dive fully into life? We raised our hands when questions were asked, made best friends with everyone on the playground and were the first ones in and last ones out of the pool. Then we got a bit older. We stopped raising our hands quite as much. We stopped opening up to others. Heck, not only did we stop being the first one in the pool, we stopped even wearing our swimsuits to pool parties! We started making more excuses and stopped being as active. Today's Monday Motivation will remind you of the boldness of youth, the joy of participation and the power of showing up with heart.
On this episode of Great Practice, Great Life®, Steve Riley welcomes Dre Baldwin, former professional basketball player, prolific author, and founder of Work on Your Game Inc. Dre shares how his career was shaped not just on the court, but at home, where his parents modeled daily discipline and quiet resilience that made him “too stupid to quit.” From an early age, Dre watched his parents show up for their responsibilities, day in and day out, regardless of how they felt. That consistency became the foundation of his own mindset: showing up was non-negotiable. It's a lesson he carried into his athletic career and beyond. When he didn't get drafted into the NBA, Dre pivoted. He found another path—one that required just as much discipline, and just as much resilience. Rather than see setbacks as failures, Dre treated them as invitations to grow. He began documenting his process and sharing videos online—before content creation was even a buzzword. As he continued to show up, his audience grew. His approach resonated not just with athletes, but with entrepreneurs, business professionals, and attorneys—anyone striving for consistency in the face of pressure. In this episode, Dre shares how he built a global platform rooted in daily execution and mental discipline. He talks about how a professional mindset—distinct from an amateur one—is the key to long-term results. Dre also introduces key ideas from his latest book, The Third Day, where he breaks down how to keep showing up when motivation runs dry. If you've ever felt burned out, unmotivated, or unsure how to push through, this episode is a must-listen. Dre Baldwin's Work on Your Game philosophy is a reminder that success isn't a moment—it's a practice. In this episode, you will hear: Dre Baldwin's transition from professional basketball player to influential content creator and coach Insights into the distinction between amateur and professional mindsets The role of resilience and creativity in overcoming challenges and achieving success The concept of “The Third Day” and its importance for consistent persistence and professional commitment The application of sports discipline and resilience to everyday life and professional settings The importance of personal development and using setbacks as opportunities for growth Dre's approach to content creation and engaging with a diverse audience beyond sports Catch Dre Baldwin live at this year's Summit! Dre will take the Atticus Summit stage as a keynote speaker with Work on Your Game: Apply the Pro Athlete Mindset at Work & in Life.

Are You Trading Your Health for Your Hustle? I thought I had to grind nonstop to win, but what if taking care of yourself is actually the key to achieving more? In this conversation with Michelle Bang, we unpack why “self-care” isn't just a buzzword—it's a non-negotiable if you want to live well while you climb. Michelle's journey from landing in the emergency room at the height of her success to rediscovering ancient Korean wellness practices is a wake-up call for anyone who thinks they'll get around to health “later.” Michelle breaks down why something as simple as walking after dinner can transform your energy, why fermented foods like kimchi are more than trendy side dishes, and why traditional Korean bathhouses have been quietly reducing heart attacks for generations. We talk about healthspan—not just how long you live, but how well you live—and how embracing practices like daily movement, mindful nourishment, and building community can give you back the edge you need without burning out your body. She shares how she went from ignoring her gut health and running on fumes to reclaiming her vitality by reconnecting with the wisdom she grew up with in Korea and Hong Kong. It's a reminder that no level of achievement is worth trading your health for, and taking small, consistent steps now will let you actually enjoy the life you're building. I challenge you today: Audit your well-being while you're chasing your dreams. Could taking better care of yourself actually help you climb higher? You are the one person you're going to spend your entire life with—take care of you. Key Takeaways: Why self-care is essential, not optional, for high achievers. How daily walks can improve digestion, reduce glucose spikes, and enhance creativity. The gut-brain connection and why fermented foods matter. The impact of “healthspan” versus just living longer. How traditional Korean practices like “jjimjilbang” and the cultural value of “Jeong” can be applied to your life now. If this hits you where you're at right now, share this episode with someone who needs the reminder, and let's start taking care of the one person who's with us for life: ourselves.

Are you addicted to “more” and missing your life? I brought Courtney Carver on not just for you, but for me too. Because if you're like me—a climber, a high achiever—you probably feel that slowing down means you're falling behind. But what if I told you that you're not broken, and you don't need “more” to be enough? In this conversation, Courtney and I get honest about what it really means to rest first, to stop chasing a finish line you can't even define, and to start living here instead of waiting for “there.” We talk about the moments when your body starts rejecting your pace, your aggression, and your addiction to constant movement. I share what it felt like to sit by the ocean yet never look at it because I was glued to my phone, and how leaving that phone inside during a cigar break changed everything for me. Courtney shares the small, practical shifts that allowed her to simplify her life without blowing it up—and why rest isn't just sleep, but the small choices that allow you to reclaim your energy without guilt. We also get into why so many of us—especially achievers—avoid slowing down, and how we attach our identity to “more.” Courtney's take? You're not broken, you just need to redefine what enough looks like for you. We also talk about the hidden cost of constant advice-giving and how letting go of regret can unlock the energy you're leaking into the past so you can move forward with more clarity and peace. Why rest should come first—not last—and how this fuels better performance. How to take small, practical steps to simplify without losing your edge. Why your addiction to “more” might be stealing your peace and focus. How leaving your phone behind, even for an hour, can transform your presence. Letting go of regret so you can move forward without dragging the past with you. Listen, I know you're busy. I know you've got goals. I do too. But what if you could climb without burning out? What if you could actually enjoy the life you're working so hard to build?Key Takeaways:It's time to stop living for a “someday” that never comes. This conversation will help you create space to enjoy the life you're fighting for. Share this with someone who needs it—and as always, MAX OUT.
Ever wonder why you still feel unfulfilled—even after a full, busy day? It's not always about how much you're doing, but what you're doing that matters. When your actions lack alignment and meaning, no amount of hustle will make you feel accomplished. True happiness isn't found in checking random boxes—it's found in completing what truly moves the needle in your life. In this episode, Brendon Burchard reveals how productivity is one of the fastest ways to generate happiness, confidence, and forward momentum. When you complete meaningful tasks, you build character. When you follow through, you gain self-respect. And when you stay consistent, you start to believe in your ability to create the life you truly want. If you've been feeling behind, stuck, or mentally heavy, this is your wake-up call to get back in the game—not with pressure, but with power. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the completion of tasks boosts your happiness and emotional well-being How following through strengthens your identity and self-worth The surprising reason why unfinished tasks rob you of motivation _____________________________________ This episode will challenge you to stop overthinking and start finishing. Because when you finish what matters, you become who you're meant to be. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!

HAPPY MONDAY MOTIVATION! Welcome back to another episode of No More Excuses. HALF THE YEAR IS GONE. Are you where you thought you'd be? If not—don't panic. But don't keep playing it safe either. It's time to pivot, simplify, and SHOW UP. This week on the No More Excuses podcast:
BA fam, we’re diving deep into the world of credit cards this week! Mandi, Yaneli (aka MissBeHelpful), and Chris Browning break down the newest updates to premium cards like the Chase Sapphire Reserve, Amex Platinum, and Capital One Venture X. From new streaming perks to rising annual fees (hi, $795!), they weigh in on what’s actually worth it and what’s just hype. If you’re thinking about upgrading your card or just want to travel smarter, this one’s for you.
Are you protecting the lead—or playing to win? In this conversation, I sit down with my brother, Brendon Burchard, and we hit on something that every single one of us wrestles with at some point: how to reignite that competitive fire when it starts to flicker. Maybe you've achieved some success—you got that promotion, built a business, or hit a financial goal—and suddenly you realize, I'm playing not to lose instead of playing to win. That's a dangerous place to be, and Brendon and I break down exactly why it happens and how to flip the switch back on. We get real about what it means to measure up—not against others, but against your own capacity. That's what separates those who keep rising from those who stall out. We talk about how greats like LeBron James keep their edge and how you can apply that same mindset. It's not about the external competition anymore—it's about expanding who you are and setting your own standard. And that, my friends, is where true fulfillment lives. Brendon and I also share the practical steps that have kept us driven—like setting up new challenges on purpose, so you're not just reacting to life but directing it. If you're coasting right now, if you've been going through the motions, this episode will remind you to swing for the fences. Key takeaways from this episode: Why success can actually zap your drive—and how to get it back The danger of playing not to lose instead of playing to win How to shift from competing against others to competing against your own potential The secret power of setting your own challenges to fuel your momentum Why surrounding yourself with the right people can reignite your ambition Let's stop settling. Let's take that big swing. Let's chase those God-sized dreams together. Max out. And hey—if you want to experience this energy in person, come join us in Napa this July or in Scottsdale this fall. Go to growthday.com/Ed and grab your spot while you still can.
Are you feeling utterly drained, believing it's just the relentless pace of life? What if your burnout isn't about working too hard, but about hiding—hiding your true self, your assertiveness, and your inherent worth? In this powerful episode, Brendon Burchard uncovers the subtle ways we diminish ourselves, leading to exhaustion that no amount of rest can truly fix. It's time to stop shrinking and start shining. Brendon shares how to reclaim your power, assert your true value, and build an unshakeable sense of self-worth. You'll discover: Why if you don't assert yourself, you can't see what you're worth. We'll dive into how speaking your truth and standing for your value isn't aggressive—it's essential for self-recognition. How to stop judging yourself on your circumstances instead of your character. Your external situation doesn't define your inner strength or capabilities. It's time to shift your internal compass. Why worthiness is not guaranteed 100% of the time unless you're working towards it. This isn't about being perfect; it's about consistent self-acknowledgment and intentional action to build and maintain your sense of deserving. _____________________________________ If you're ready to stop the cycle of hidden burnout and step into your full, asserted power, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in now and start building a life where your worth is evident and your energy is abundant. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!
BA Fam! We’re back at the Brown Table with your faves—Yaneli (aka MissBeHelpful) and Chris Browning catching up on all the things. Mandi shares some big news: her dad got a kidney (!!) and the story behind it will have you in your feels and thinking hard about health in our communities. Then we get into the heavy stuff—yes, the U.S. bombed Iran and what that could mean for your wallet (gas, inflation, cyberattacks... fun times). Plus, why financial content during global messes can feel icky real quick. We wrap with some NYC political tea and why we keep picking trash mayors. It’s giving heart, humor, and hella perspective—like we do.
Are you holding yourself back from leading at your highest level? In this incredible conversation, I sit down with my good friend Craig Groeschel—someone I admire deeply, not just for what he's accomplished, but for the man he is at his core. We get real about leadership—what it means to empower others, to listen, to ask better questions, and to build a culture that thrives whether you're in the room or not. Craig shares candidly about the lessons he's learned over nearly 30 years leading one of the largest churches in the country and launching the YouVersion Bible App that's impacted millions.One of the things that really hit home in this episode is how Craig talks about the shift from thinking leadership is about you to realizing it's about what happens when you're not there. We break down how great leaders give authority, not just tasks, and how that's the key to developing other leaders rather than creating followers. And yes, we go into the hard stuff—the criticism, the self-doubt, the moments where you feel like playing it safe. Craig doesn't shy away from those moments, and neither do I in this conversation. We also talk about something that's been huge for me this year—surrender. Craig shares what it really means to give up control where it's not ours to begin with, and why trusting God with the things we can't shape frees us to lead with greater courage and faith. This episode isn't about theory—it's about real tools you can put into practice starting today. How to shift from controlling to empowering so you can build leaders, not just followers. Why your effectiveness as a leader is measured by what happens when you're absent, not present. The habits that anchor Craig's leadership and how to create your own keystone habits. A fresh approach to giving and receiving feedback that builds trust and fuels growth. The difference between showing love and showing belief—and why your team (and family) needs both. How to handle self-doubt and stop playing it safe in your vision and leadership. What true surrender looks like in your leadership and life. Here's what you'll take away from this episode:If this conversation moves you the way it did me, do yourself a favor—share it, take action on it, and let it change the way you lead. Max out your life, my friends!

You'll discover: How asking more questions about your life can lead to profound self-discovery and clarity. How asking more questions in your social relationships can build deeper bonds and foster genuine connection.

Are you letting indecision rob you of your destiny? In this episode, I'm getting real about something every one of us faces—but few of us feel truly prepared for: making difficult decisions. I walk you through the exact strategies that have helped me choose clarity over chaos in my life, even when the stakes were high and the path ahead was uncertain. Whether you're wrestling with a career move, a relationship choice, or any other major crossroad, this conversation will help you stop hesitating and start calling your shots. I share personal stories—like the time I chose to stay in California for my family's well-being, sacrificing millions financially, and later, why I made the move to Florida when life's conditions shifted. These weren't easy calls, but they taught me that not choosing is a choice in itself—one that can quietly steal your future. You'll hear how I separate emotion from logic, why stillness is key, and how to stop letting fear, ego, or the opinions of others dictate your path. This episode is all about owning your choices, even when you're unsure of the outcome. I give you practical tools like the “10-10-10” rule, values-based decision making, and the importance of internal alignment over external pressure. And if you're struggling right now, let me remind you: everything's going to be okay. Trust yourself, trust in God's guidance, and know that your destiny is shaped by the decisions you make today. Key takeaways from this episode: Why clarity comes from action, not endless thinking How to separate emotion from true inner guidance when making decisions The importance of aligning choices with your highest values, not ego or external validation Why it's okay—and smart—to change your mind as new information arises How to live with your decisions, learn from them, and move forward with confidence If this resonates with you, I ask just one thing: share this episode. Help someone else take that next step toward the life they deserve.
If you constantly feel overwhelmed, scattered, or like you're running in circles without real progress… it's not because you're broken—it's because you're reactive instead of intentional. In this powerful episode, Brendon Burchard calls out the silent trap that keeps high achievers stuck: getting too comfortable. When we settle, we stop striving. When we avoid discomfort, we disconnect from alignment, service, and true fulfillment. It's time to break free from the ease that's keeping you small—and reawaken the purpose that pulls you forward. Brendon shares how to realign with what matters, reignite your internal drive, and stop chasing tasks—and start chasing impact. You'll discover: How resentment quietly derails your dreams—and how to release it for good Why hope isn't naive—it's a decision that creates forward momentum How taking aligned risks reignites your purpose and positions you for long-term success _____________________________________ If you're ready to stop looking backward and start living forward, this episode will help you realign with your best self and your biggest vision.

At the Brown Table this week, Mandi invites two brilliant voices: Elizabeth Ayoola, host of Smart Money by NerdWallet, and Haniyah Philogene, lifestyle reporter at TheGrio. They dive into the chaotic beauty of career pivots, being Black women in media, and the emotional labor of storytelling. We talk motherhood, dating, the cost of protective styles (spoiler: $400 braids are wild), and the complex feelings around Tyler Perry’s latest Netflix hit. The convo gets real on how Black trauma is marketed—and why we need more diverse storytelling for us, by us. We also chat about: What it really means to be "financially free" in your 30s The evolving landscape of Black journalism in a post-DEI world How social media impacts our timelines—literal and emotional Why storytelling is political, and who gets to shape the narrative Plus, Elizabeth breaks down how she got into personal finance with no journalism degree—and why she wants you to start investing (even if it’s just $5). And Haniyah gives us the inside scoop on Black consumer power, boycotts, and making sense of it all in your group chat. New here?Join us three times a week:
How Do You Turn Tragedy Into Triumph?In this unforgettable conversation, I sit down with Elizabeth Smart—a woman whose strength and grace have inspired millions. Elizabeth was kidnapped at knifepoint from her home at just 14 years old and endured nine months of unspeakable abuse. But what truly amazes me isn't just her survival—it's the extraordinary life she's built in the aftermath. In this episode, Elizabeth shares what it means to reclaim your life, how she's become a fierce protector of others, and the mindset that helped her move forward instead of staying trapped by trauma. Elizabeth opens up about those terrifying moments of captivity and the choice she made every day: don't give up. She shares what it took to move past fear and anger—not to excuse what was done to her—but to love herself enough to not let that pain define her life. We talk about forgiveness, and she explains it in a way that will stop you in your tracks: “Forgiveness is the greatest form of self-love because it allows you to leave the anger behind and move forward.” We also dive into how trauma leaves a mark—not just on your heart, but on your brain. Elizabeth reveals how she's worked to take her power back, from building a loving marriage to creating the Elizabeth Smart Foundation and Smart Defense, where women (and men) learn that they are stronger than they ever imagined. I loved how she said, “You are so powerful. You are much stronger than you think you are.” This episode isn't just about Elizabeth's story—it's about all of us. Whether you've faced your own trauma, or you're standing with someone who has, there's so much here about resilience, purpose, and hope. Elizabeth's courage will change the way you see your own challenges—and your ability to rise above them. Key takeaways from this episode: The real meaning of forgiveness and why it's a gift you give yourself. How to reclaim your power when trauma makes you feel powerless. Why open communication and unconditional love are the most important things you can offer your children. The importance of learning self-defense not just for protection, but for confidence. How to be the kind of person who says, “I believe you. I'm here for you,” when someone shares their pain. Let this conversation remind you that no matter what you've been through, your future can be brighter than your past. Share this episode with someone who needs it. Let's make a difference together.

If you constantly feel overwhelmed, scattered, or like you're running in circles without real progress… it's not because you're broken—it's because you're reactive instead of intentional.

When we avoid discomfort, we disconnect from alignment, service, and true fulfillment. It's time to break free from the ease that's keeping you small—and reawaken the purpose that pulls you forward. Brendon shares how to realign with what matters, reignite your internal drive, and stop chasing tasks—and start chasing impact.

Welcome to another short and empowering episode of Monday Motivation, giving you a dose of inspiration as you head into your week... Today, we explore the inspiring quote by Chris Brogan that challenges us to define success on our own terms: "The goal isn’t more money. The goal is living life on your terms." Three key takeaways you can expect from this episode: How to define what "living on your terms" truly means for you — not based on society, family, or social media. The power of micro-adjustments: how small daily choices lead to big transformations. Why investing in support, tools, and community can accelerate your journey toward freedom. Listen in and discover how even one small action today can bring you closer to your dream life — however you define it. As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonates with you from this episode and what you plan to implement after listening in. So please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here. Have a wonderful week
Brace yourselves, BA fam—this week’s Brown Table gets deep into the dollars and the drama. Mandi is joined by not one, not two, but three first-time Brown Table guests: Alexa Claire from The Financial Diet, JQ (aka Jonquilyn Hill) from Vox’s Explain It To Me podcast, and Yvie Saint-Louis from Blavity. They’re diving into the news, the nonsense, and the real-life mess of navigating finances, friendships, and fairness—especially when rent’s due and tensions are high.
Are You Thinking Your Own Thoughts… Or Someone Else's? Let me ask you something—have you ever stopped to wonder if the thoughts you're thinking are actually yours? In this conversation, I sat down with Rebecca Lemov, a Harvard professor and author of The Instability of Truth, and what unfolded was a real eye-opener. We didn't just scratch the surface—we went into the guts of how we get conditioned to believe things about the world… and about ourselves… without even realizing it. Rebecca laid out something that really hit me: brainwashing doesn't start with someone else taking control of your mind—it begins when you stop asking questions. That moment when you stop challenging your beliefs, when you're scrolling, liking, agreeing without even knowing why—that's where it starts. She walked me through a chilling example: a Facebook study where they manipulated nearly 700,000 users' moods without their knowledge. That's real. That happened. And if that doesn't wake you up, I don't know what will. We also got personal. I shared how trauma—whether from rejection, heartbreak, or failure—can create space for a mind virus to take root. That voice in your head saying, “You're not good enough,” “You'll never succeed,”—that's not truth. That's programming. And unless you confront it, question it, and replace it, it'll trap you in a version of your life that's far smaller than what you were made for. Rebecca made it clear: being educated or intelligent doesn't make you immune—it might even make you more vulnerable. This episode isn't about conspiracy theories or pointing fingers—it's about ownership. About reclaiming your identity, your voice, your individuality. Don't go through life unknowingly living in someone else's version of who you're supposed to be. Don't meet God at the end and realize you lived someone else's life because you never questioned your own thoughts. You want to change your life? Start by challenging what you assume to be true. Start asking better questions. Key Takeaways: Brainwashing often starts from within—when you stop questioning your own thoughts. Trauma can open the door for limiting beliefs to become your internal truth. Social media algorithms are designed to manipulate your mood and feed confirmation bias. There are 8 classic signs of brainwashing, but the key one? Control over your environment. Intelligence doesn't protect you from mind control—it can deepen the illusion. Challenge your assumptions, and you can change your entire life trajectory. Let this be your wake-up call. You don't have to be part of a group to have value. You're not your past. You're not your trauma. You're an individual—and your thoughts matter.
If you've been feeling unmotivated, unfocused, or like you're just going through the motions… it might be because comfort has quietly replaced your purpose. In this powerful episode, Brendon Burchard calls out the silent trap that keeps high achievers stuck: getting too comfortable. When we settle, we stop striving. When we avoid discomfort, we disconnect from alignment, service, and true fulfillment. It's time to break free from the ease that's keeping you small—and reawaken the purpose that pulls you forward. Brendon shares how to realign with what matters, reignite your internal drive, and stop chasing tasks—and start chasing impact. You'll discover: Why comfort leads to misalignment—and how to get your focus and motive back How to stop task-chasing and shift into a mindset of meaningful service How saying goodbye to avoidance can unlock the momentum and clarity you've been missing _____________________________________ If you're ready to shake off the comfort zone and step back into the meaningful pursuit of your purpose, this episode is your wake-up call. Listen now to reignite your clarity, courage, and calling. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!
Whew… this week’s Brown Table is packed, y’all. Mandi is joined by not one, not two, but three first-time Brown Table guests: Alexa Claire from The Financial Diet, JQ (aka Jonquilyn Hill) from Vox’s "Explain It To Me" podcast, and Yvie Saint-Louis from Blavity. We dive into the news, the nonsense, and everything in between from pop culture and politics to the real-life messiness of being Black, brilliant, and bold in America. This week, we get into: -Beyoncé in London: the rain, the glow, and yes, ugly tears were shed. -Trump and Elon’s billionaire beef… is it all just a stunt? -ICE raids, National Guard in LA, and why peaceful protests keep being met with force. -Why Black women are *still* expected to be the mature ones and what happens when we just want to clap back. -From Coco Gauff to Simone Biles to a teenage track star with flaming feet (literally): why the world can’t handle confident Black girls. Plus: The Tonys, the audacity of Patti LuPone, and whether Hamilton still goes hard (spoiler: it does). New here? BA fam, don’t forget—we’ve got three shows a week now:
What if the secret to longevity isn't luck—but how you show up? In this episode, I sit down with someone I've been wanting to interview for a long time—actor and now wellness entrepreneur, Josh Duhamel. You've seen him in everything from Transformers to Las Vegas to his latest hit Ransom Canyon. But this conversation goes beyond the screen. It's about the truth behind staying relevant, thriving in your 40s and 50s, and what it really means to lead—whether that's in your home, on set, or in your company. Josh opens up about the moments of self-doubt early in his career, the grind he still embraces, and how testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) helped him regain not just his energy, but his edge. We got real about aging, fatherhood, emotional strength, and the quiet confidence that comes from people believing in you—not just loving you. There's a big difference between the two. And whether you're leading a team or raising a family, that distinction can change everything. We also talk about masculinity in today's world—the evolving definition of what it means to be a man, and how important it is to stay grounded in spiritual connection. Josh talked about his circle of men who hold space for honest, vulnerable conversation and how that's shaped the way he leads and lives. He's not afraid to let people know he needs them, and that simple truth might just be the unlock for building loyalty, excellence, and connection in your team. This episode isn't just about fame or fitness—it's about the values that sustain you: humility, work ethic, emotional intelligence, and the courage to evolve. Josh proves that longevity in any field is earned through consistency, intention, and the willingness to stay coachable—even when you've “made it.” Key Takeaways: Why being emotionally accessible is a strength, not a weakness How testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) helped Josh reclaim his drive The importance of belief—how it's more powerful than love in leadership Creating a work environment where everyone feels needed and valued Josh's definition of masculinity and the role spiritual connection plays in his life How leaders like Steve Jobs and Mark Wahlberg modeled greatness through humility and discipline Don't just listen—share this one with someone who needs to remember what showing up with purpose really looks like. MAX OUT.
If you feel like giving up because the journey is hard, remember: you're not stuck—you're being shaped. In this empowering episode, Brendon Burchard shares how the power of never giving up isn't just about grit—it's about having clear aim, the resolve to evolve, and the mental toughness to honor the struggle. When things go sideways, most people quit. But those who win in life are the ones who shift, pivot, adapt—and still press on. You'll discover: Why Strong resolve + clear outcomes are the foundation of your perseverance. How to shit, not shut down - pivoting isn't quitting, it's strategy. How amplifying your (and owning your weaknesses) leads to momentum and mastery. _____________________________________ If you're ready to stop flirting with defeat and start leaning fully into your power, this episode is your mindset reset. Listen now and stop letting the wrong habits limit your future. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!
What if the pain you're facing right now is just preparing you to meet the strongest, most fulfilled version of yourself? In this special episode re-release, I'm reminding you of one thing: you were born to do something great with your life. Not just in big, visible ways—but in the quiet, meaningful moments that the world doesn't always see. If you're in the middle of tough times, I want you to hear this—everything you're going through is temporary. And on the other side of that struggle? That's where your “other self” is waiting. In this episode, I talk straight with you about how your thoughts shape your emotions, and how your emotions shape your reality. I share a lesson from Think and Grow Rich that helped me stop quitting and start innovating when life got hard. You'll hear what it means to change your “emotional home,” and why peace, not chaos, is the fuel for a life of joy and meaning. Plus, I break down the four ways you can show up in 20 years—and challenge you to choose the version of yourself who becomes the one that changes everything. This isn't just motivation—it's a call to action. You're not invisible. You're not a victim. You're the one. Take the floaties off. Jump into the deep end of your life. Key Takeaways: Why all pain is temporary—and how to outlast it How to recognize and reset your emotional home The six basic fears that keep most people stuck Why your dreams are closer than you think The four identities you'll choose from in life—and how to become the one How to move from invisible to hero to servant leader You were born for greatness. Let this episode be the reminder you needed. Now, jump in. Max out.
If you feel like you're working hard but still not breaking through to the next level, you're probably stuck in a cycle you don't even realize you're in. In this powerful episode, Brendon Burchard dives into how to stay calm amid chaos—not by chance, but by conscious choice and trained habit. You'll learn why calm isn't something that just happens—it's a skill you build, especially when life tests you most. Brendon unpacks how your upbringing and social conditioning shape your response to stress, and how to rewire those patterns so you can face anxiety, hurt, and overwhelm with resilience and clarity. You'll discover: Why setting low-level survival goals is sabotaging your growth How the F.A.D.E. framework can help you pinpoint what's holding you back How to identify the level of performance and experience you truly desire—and finally reach it _____________________________________ If you're ready to break free from autopilot and activate your full potential, this episode is your wake-up call.

Are You Speaking to Their Greatness or Their Deficiencies? This conversation challenged me in the best way—and I think it will challenge you too. I sat down with relationship coaches Jocelyn and Aaron Freeman, and we didn't hold back. We got into the real, unfiltered truth about what makes a relationship thrive and what quietly breaks it down over time. And I'll be honest—I learned a lot about myself in this one. We talked about why most couples argue the same way every time, how we start talking to our partner's flaws instead of their potential, and how easy it is to stop being curious about the person we love the most. That hit me hard. Because curiosity? It's not just a phase when you're dating—it's a choice. When you stay curious, people become more interesting. And when you stop being interested, they stop showing you who they really are. One of the most important takeaways: the “5 Rs” the Freemans teach—Reflect, Responsibility, Reconnect, Remind, Reconcile. It's a practical framework that helps couples come back from conflict stronger. But what stood out even more was this mindset they kept coming back to: we're on the same team. That phrase alone has the power to stop an argument in its tracks and realign a relationship that feels like it's drifting apart. This episode is packed with real tools, honest moments, and a whole lot of heart. If you're in a relationship—new or decades deep—there's something here for you. You're either training your partner that this is a safe space to share… or you're teaching them to keep it all inside. That's the choice. And I want you to choose connection. Key Takeaways: The most damaging part of conflict isn't the argument—it's the lack of repair after. Learn the 5 Rs to recover and reconnect after a disagreement. “Speaking to your partner's greatness” builds them up and strengthens your bond. Curiosity is the secret to keeping relationships alive and engaging. One person can spark change, but both have to sustain it. You don't have to end the relationship to end the version of it that isn't working. Let this episode be the spark. Listen with your partner. Talk about it. And remember—you're on the same team.
When everything feels like it's falling apart around you, how do you stay grounded, focused, and calm? In this powerful episode, Brendon Burchard dives into how to stay calm amid chaos—not by chance, but by conscious choice and trained habit. You'll learn why calm isn't something that just happens—it's a skill you build, especially when life tests you most. Brendon unpacks how your upbringing and social conditioning shape your response to stress, and how to rewire those patterns so you can face anxiety, hurt, and overwhelm with resilience and clarity. You'll discover: Why staying calm is a proactive choice you must train daily How to understand and reprogram the way you were conditioned to handle stress The power of calm routines that help you stay grounded in any storm _____________________________________ If you're ready to stop reacting and start leading your emotions with purpose and peace, this episode will show you how. Listen now and reclaim your calm. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!
Are your goals driving you—or draining you? In this month's sit-down with my brother Brendon Burchard, we break open something rarely talked about but absolutely critical if you're chasing success: the difference between being committed to your goals and being attached to them. We're not here to dish out motivational fluff—this is a raw conversation about mastering presence, building true rhythm in your life, and not letting your need for results rob you of your ability to perform at your best. Brendon and I talk about how most people get lost in the micro—obsessing over metrics, routines, and outcomes—while completely missing the bigger picture. Goals aren't the problem; attachment is. I share the metaphor of a pro golfer who misses an easy putt—not because he lacks skill, but because he's mentally fast-forwarding to what it means if he makes or misses. And in life, just like on the course, the moment you get needy, you drop your frequency. We also dive into what I've learned through experience and faith—how the real shift came when I started surrendering the harvest to God. Your job is to plant the seeds, do the work, show up—but the outcome? That's not yours to control. I want you to think about this: who are you becoming? Because your state of being will take you further than any checklist or protocol ever will. Brendon and I just wrapped an unforgettable Ultra VIP event in Austin, where we went deep with a small group of high achievers on topics like these. If you're ready to experience this level of connection and transformation in person, check out Ultra.VIP for more details. Key Takeaways: Why presence matters more than pressure in moments of execution The difference between being needy for a goal and committed to a vision How “working the rhythm” can outperform chasing the result Why surrendering the outcome increases your ability to perform The identity shift from achiever to warrior—and how it changes everything What it really means to move in a direction instead of chasing random goals If this hits home for you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. Max out.
If you keep telling yourself you're not good enough, not ready, or not capable—your momentum will stall before it ever truly begins. In this energizing episode, Brendon Burchard reveals the hidden cost of always being “on” and why never pausing can actually diminish your creativity, joy, and performance. You'll learn why releasing tension, letting go of mental baggage, and taking time to reflect aren't luxuries—they're essential habits for high achievers. Brendon also walks you through how taking strategic breaks isn't about slowing down your goals—it's about setting higher expectations for the energy, clarity, and alignment you bring to them. You'll discover: How to break free from negative inner dialogue that kills progress Why recalibration and growth require self-awareness and conscious intention How to realign your focus and energy with what truly drives fulfillment and success _____________________________________ If you're ready to silence the self-doubt and reignite your momentum, this episode will help you make that crucial breakthrough. Listen now to activate your best self. _____________________________________ Life-Changing Resources: Become a GrowthDay member to unlock daily motivational audio from Brendon, weekly training from the world's top coaches and experts, exclusive Monday Motivation from Ed Mylett, Brendon AI, and over $5,000 of courses! https://growthday.go.link/hsAqg Download Brendon's famous 1-Page Productivity Guide: https://www.growthday.com/pdf-g ✨ Subscribe now and start your journey to a more fulfilling life! _____________________________________ Follow for more motivation: Instagram: @brendonburchard / @growthday YouTube: @BrendonBurchard / @GrowthDayMotivation Facebook: Brendon Burchard / GrowthDay _____________________________________ Don't forget to leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this!

What if anxiety wasn't the enemy—but the invitation?In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Humble The Poet, and we have a real, raw conversation about one of the most common challenges we all face—anxiety. But we don't treat it like a monster hiding in the closet. Instead, we explore it for what it really is: a signal, not a sentence. Humble brings a refreshing, honest lens to what it means to feel anxious in today's world. He says anxiety isn't about danger—it's about uncertainty. It's not that something's wrong with you. It's that you've been conditioned to believe you can't handle life's hard moments. But guess what? You can. “Anxiety is when your intelligence grows faster than your courage,” he says. That line hit me. We're overthinking ourselves into paralysis, while our bodies are screaming for action, for movement, for breath. We also dig into how society—especially social media—is tricking us into thinking we're not enough. That we're missing out. That our value is tied to our achievements. But your worth? It's not on the other side of likes, lists, or trophies. And when Humble said, “The people that matter most don't care about your achievements,” I thought of my mom, my kids, and how true that really is. You're not broken. You don't need to avoid hard things. In fact, you get stronger by facing them—again and again. The goal isn't to be fearless. The goal is to shorten the time between when fear shows up and when you respond with clarity and grace. That's equanimity. That's emotional fitness. That's the real edge. Key Takeaways:• Why anxiety is not the enemy—it's the alarm pointing to unaddressed challenges.• The difference between reacting and responding—and how to close that gap.• How social media fuels our anxiety and why stepping away might be the best move.• The myth of being “too needy” and the truth about our need for community.• How envy reveals what you truly value—and what to do with that insight.• Why your worth isn't tied to your most recent achievement.This episode isn't just for those battling anxiety—it's for anyone who's ever questioned their worth, struggled with overthinking, or felt alone. You're not. And this conversation will remind you of that. Let's keep growing together. Max out.
What if your life had an expiration date printed on it—and you just couldn't see it? This episode is a wake-up call. Not about chasing more, but about making what we already have count. I introduce a concept that's reshaping how I live: Quality Time Remaining. It's not about how long we live—it's about how we spend the precious moments we have left. I've been on this group text with some close friends—successful, driven guys—and we've started sending each other snapshots of real-life moments that matter. The ones that count. And I realized, I haven't sent one yet. That hit me. We grind so hard for the future that we forget to live today. The trouble is, we think we have time. We plan, we postpone, we sacrifice the now for the someday—and sometimes, that someday never comes. I've had health scares, lost people I love, and seen too many “somedays” stolen by surprise. That's why this message matters. It's not about slowing down—it's about becoming intentional with the time that really counts. You'll hear me share stories—some personal, some painful, all real. This isn't a theory or a mindset hack. It's a shift in perspective that could literally change how you live. If you're waiting for the right time to make memories, it's already here. Start your shorter list. Not your bucket list—the little moments that matter now. Whether it's a walk, a conversation, a game with your kid… they're priceless. The takeaway is simple: your life isn't just measured in years. It's measured in memories. The people around you deserve more than just your time—they deserve the best of you, fully present. So do you. And if you're the kind of person who's been grinding, achieving, and waiting for later… it's time to wake up. Later might not come. The milk of your life tastes better now than it ever will. Savor it. Key Takeaways: How to reframe your life around Quality Time Remaining Why being busy can rob you of what truly matters The difference between intentional living and life drifting How to start your own “shorter list” of moments that matter Why presence, not productivity, is what creates lasting memories You have more time today than you might tomorrow—spend it like it matters. Because it does.
