Podcasts about peak performance

Today’s episode is a special rebroadcast of one of my all-time favorite conversations on the B.rad Podcast! Every so often, I like to revisit episodes that made a profound impact on me personally and delivered tremendous value to listeners, and this conversation with Thais Gibson is absolutely one of those episodes. I am so pleased to introduce a fantastically awesome show with Thais Gibson, creator of the Personal Development School! When Thais first sent me an overview of what she wanted to discuss, I thought, "Sure, let's talk about it." But I have to tell you, I was completely blown away. This became one of my favorite shows I have ever recorded. Listeners, I truly believe this episode has the potential to be life-changing. I know it was for me. It probably helped that I unknowingly became the guinea pig for much of the conversation. What you'll hear is essentially a live coaching session where Thais demonstrates her expertise and methods using real-life examples from my own experiences—particularly the disconnect between my stated goals and some of my behavior patterns. We focused on the pursuit of wealth and financial security, an area where I occasionally feel frustrated or deficient, perhaps because of subconscious patterns operating beneath the surface. Thais explains the causes of self-sabotage and how to reprogram limiting thought patterns. One of the most fascinating parts of the discussion is when she explains that we're operating from our conscious mind only about three to five percent of the time. If you're someone who listens to podcasts, reads books, and continually educates yourself, your conscious mind may be doing a great job acquiring the knowledge and skills needed to succeed. But your subconscious needs and programming can still interfere and pull you off course. So in this episode, it's time for Brad to get processed, dig deep, and explore what's really happening when self-sabotage kicks in. Thais Gibson is a counselor, bestselling author of Learning Love, and co-founder of the Personal Development School. She holds a Ph.D. and more than 13 certifications in modalities including CBT, NLP, somatic experiencing, Internal Family Systems, shadow work, and hypnosis. After nearly a decade running a successful private practice, she founded The Personal Development School—an online learning platform designed to provide a more accessible and authentic way for people to transform their lives. In fact, after we finished this recording, I enrolled immediately. I encourage you to visit her website and explore what she offers. She offers a test run where you can see what it’s all about—check it out at personaldevelopmentschool.com. Enjoy this special rebroadcast with Thais Gibson! TIMESTAMPS: People may not always be aware that they are self-sabotaging because it usually occurs at a subconscious level. [00:53] Your conscious mind is responsible for roughly 3 to 5 percent of all of your beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and actions or decisions. Your subconscious is responsible for 95 to 97 percent. [04:48] We all have subconscious personality needs. [07:54] Thais uses Brad as an example to unpack what needs it relates to. She asks first, what does he do in his spare time? [09:34] Where does he spend his money? What does he like to learn about? [12:10] Our subconscious mind is also the host of all of our limiting beliefs. [19:46] There is a tool for how to pull up what your limiting beliefs are. [21:42] We're scared of something that's hidden in the periphery at a subconscious level of mind [24:29] Reconditioning is a tool for reprogramming. [26:25] Thais identifies characteristics of people who have been in a relationship with a narcissist. [30:41] Look for the things that trigger you. Plan your limiting belief and use its opposite. [33:02] Step one: What is your core belief and its opposite? Step two: what are 10 memories to support? They can be recent memories, really old memories, doesn't matter. 10 memories to support this new idea about yourself. I am, in fact, good enough. Step three: listen back for 21 days. [34:17] When thinking about financial security, many people struggle with their subconscious as in feeling they don’t deserve it or some parts of society that have a distaste for the inequitable distribution of wealth. [43:10] There are seven areas of life that need attention. Career, financial, mental, emotional, spiritual, physical and relationship. To ignore one area, we will pay for it later. [52:45] What specific things or set of things are you going to do on a daily basis to reprogram? [59:13] So much futile energy and effort toward change without addressing these core issues is going to be tough. [01:06:13] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com - 20% OFF Your First Order!

What if you could actually train your brain to perform better… no matter your age, background, or current memory struggles? This week, Mitch Matthews sits down with 6-time USA Memory Champion, world-record holder, speaker, and bestselling author for a fascinating (and wildly practical) conversation on how to train your brain for peak performance. And here's the surprising part: Nelson says he wasn't born with a "super brain." In fact, he considered himself completely average growing up. Everything changed when Nelson watched his grandmother battle Alzheimer's disease. That painful experience sparked a deep curiosity about memory, brain health, and cognitive performance - and ultimately launched him into the world of elite memory competitions. Today, he helps people all over the world improve their focus, sharpen their memory, remember names, and unlock more of their mental potential. In this powerful conversation, Nelson breaks down the simple (but surprisingly effective) strategies anyone can use to train your brain, improve memory, and strengthen mental performance in the age of AI and endless distraction. This episode is packed with practical tools, fascinating stories, and hope-filled reminders that your brain is far more adaptable and trainable than you might think. And honestly? The timing for this conversation couldn't be better. Read the full show notes: https://mitchmatthews.com/454

Peak season has a way of grinding people down. Not dramatically, but slowly, week by week, until you hit November running on empty and wondering why you do this.In this episode, Sam and Katy talk through four categories of energy — physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual — and what it actually takes to protect each one across a full busy season. Sleep, hydration, client boundaries, scheduling buffers, letting go of outcomes you can't control…all contribute to preventing burnout.You'll learn:How your physical habits directly determine how much mental energy you have at workWhat smart scheduling boundaries look like before busy season locks inWhy emotional over-investment in clients quietly drains you and how to manage itHow recovery rituals at the end of a long day change everything

Most champions start by learning to have fun and letting go of the pressure—to truly unlock peak performance. Elijah and Jeremiah, two top-tier college wrestlers, share how shifting mindset from fear of failure to focus on the process transforms not just their season, but their entire approach to competition and life. In this episode, they reveal the power of treating every practice and match as a step in the journey rather than an endgame. Elijah talks about the importance of mental toughness, having fun, and maintaining a growth mindset—even through injury and setbacks. Jeremiah shares how surrendering expectations, focusing on daily improvements, and building team culture can elevate both individual and collective success. Together, they discuss practical tactics like visualization, staying present, and leading by example—lessons that go beyond wrestling and resonate with anyone striving for excellence under pressure. Timestamps: 00:00 - Welcome and episode overview 00:12 - Introducing guests Jeremiah Larson and Elijah Almarinez 01:02 - Reflecting on Elijah's season and experience as a true freshman 01:54 - Jeremiah's journey to becoming an All-American and final season reflections 03:04 - Jeremiah's mindset shift: letting go of expectations and focusing on the process 04:21 - The significance of surrendering outcome anxiety during competition 05:27 - Jeremiah discusses maintaining a daily mindset and consistency 07:29 - Insights into team culture: bonding, rituals, and leadership in wrestling 08:33 - Elijah's transition from high school to college wrestling 09:32 - The importance of self-reliance and routines during college sports 10:39 - The role of trainers and recovery routines in athletic performance 11:33 - The humility of being humbled by college competition and embracing growth 12:00 - Overcoming the top-dog mentality and staying motivated 13:53 - Elijah's approach to summer training and injury recovery 15:50 - The value of steady, consistent effort and self-tracking 17:09 - The development of team culture in college wrestling 19:17 - Building bonds through shared hardships and team support 21:06 - Leading by example: the importance of small acts for team unity 22:14 - The significance of collective effort and shared sacrifice 24:14 - Academic success as part of mental resilience 25:06 - Intrinsic motivators and maintaining flow through purpose 28:29 - Elijah's perspective on having fun and enjoying each match 30:55 - Recognizing and avoiding mental traps: burnout, outside distractions 31:42 - The importance of seeking help and mental health awareness 33:41 - Self-worth, identity, and the impact of wins and losses 35:52 - The concept of being 'optimal' rather than perfect in training and diet 37:57 - Using mental preparation strategies like visualization and affirmations 39:55 - Overcoming injuries and dominating in high-pressure moments 42:00 - Patience and focus in clutch situations, avoiding overthinking 44:52 - The power of visualizing success and staying present 45:17 - Final motivational advice: enjoy the college experience and stay positive

Does your dog ignore commands, pull on the leash, or seem like they just do not respect you? What if the problem is not respect at all? In this episode of Dog Works Radio, Michele Forto breaks down one of the most misunderstood ideas in dog training: the belief that dogs misbehave because they are trying to dominate, challenge, or disrespect their owners. This episode explores: Why dominance-based thinking still affects modern dog training What your dog is actually learning in difficult moments Why dogs behave differently in new environments How clarity and consistency improve obedience Why yelling louder rarely works The truth about reliable recall and dog behavior How real-world dog training builds trust If your dog listens perfectly at home but struggles outside, this episode will help you understand why. You will learn: How dogs make decisions Why reinforcement matters more than authority The role environment plays in dog obedience How to create more predictable behavior Why trust matters more than "respect" Other Episodes You Will Love ·      Zombie Dogs Support the Show This episode was recorded on the Shure SM7B and a Rodecaster Pro II Like this episode?

If you want to do your best, you'd better get your rest.The quality of your sleep fundamentally affects the quality of your communication. Communicating well, Dr. Cheri Mah says, starts with being well-rested.“Sleep impacts nearly every aspect of how you function,” says Mah, a sleep physician, adjunct lecturer at Stanford Sleep Medicine Center, and internationally recognized expert on sleep and human performance. In her research and work, particularly with elite athletes and professional sports teams, she explores the link between getting rest and doing our best. “If you are getting quality sleep, you can think more clearly, react under pressure, make good judgment calls, have more patience, be more empathetic,” she says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Mah and host Matt Abrahams explore strategies for better sleep, from bedtime routines to paying off “sleep debt” to the “nappuccino” — a caffeine-fueled power nap. Whether you struggle to sleep or can nod off at any time or place, Mah's insights reveal why doing our best requires getting our rest.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Dr. Cheri MahEp.183 Rethinks: How Anxiety Can Fuel Better Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:57) - Sleep & Performance (04:11) - Better Sleep Habits (06:16) - Quieting a Racing Mind (07:49) - Dr. Mah's Night Routine (09:19) - Sleep Extension (10:52) - Preparing for Big Events (11:44) - The Nappuccino (13:21) - Managing Jet Lag (15:56) - Chronotypes Explained (18:00) - Starting the Day with Sleep (19:40) - The Final Three Question (23:57) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of "Leadership Moments," hosts Stacy Caster and Tracy Ann Palmer delve into the misunderstood concept of peak performance in leadership. The episode begins by challenging the common misconception that peak performance equals relentless work hours and burnout. Instead, they redefine it as achieving exceptional results within your competence while ensuring sustainability through effective energy management. Drawing upon research from Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz, they emphasize the importance of balancing vision, systems, and people.Through data-driven insights, Caster and Palmer highlight the pivotal role of leaders in team and organizational success, noting that a leader's energy state directly impacts their team's engagement and performance. They introduce the four pillars of peak performance—sleep, movement, nutrition, and mental well-being—underscoring each pillar's contribution to maintaining high performance. The episode warns about the dangers of neglecting these non-negotiables, pointing out the significant business costs associated with leader burnout and depleted performance. Strategies to integrate these pillars are dissected to help listeners transform their leadership approach effectively.Key Takeaways:Redefined Peak Performance: True peak performance emphasizes sustained energy levels, not exhaustion, allowing leaders to consistently perform at their best.Four Pillars of Leadership Health: Sleep, movement, nutrition, and mental well-being form the foundation of peak performance.Energy Management Over Time Management: Managing your energy is crucial for maintaining high cognitive and emotional function.Impact of Leadership Development: Effective leadership development substantially enhances organizational performance and addresses critical issues like burnout.Creating a Culture of Balance: Leaders who model a balanced lifestyle encourage similar behavior among their teams, promoting organizational well-being.Notable Quotes:"Peak performance is not about time management, it's about energy management.""Leaders who normalize healthy sleep create that culture across the whole organization.""A sleep-deprived leader is literally making high-stakes calls with a brain that's not fully online.""It's not progress that matters so much as the capacity.""Peak performance is not a destination you arrive at. It's a practice you commit to every day."Resources:Research by Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz on energy managementGallup Research on team engagementAmerican Academy of Sleep Medicine recommendationsDDI Global Leadership ForecastAll episodes and guest requests can be found at:www.leadershipmomentspodcast.comFollow Stacey Caster on Instagram @staceycaster_Follow Tracy-Ann Palmer on Instagram @tracy_ann_palmer

When did you last go a full day without your phone? Not just setting it down for an hour, but actually powering it off, walking away, and not thinking about it once. If you're struggling to remember, this one's for you. Most of us are running on fumes and don't even know it. The constant pings, the never-ending to-do lists, the back-to-back Zoom calls. It all adds up. And at some point, you stop asking "how do I get more done?" and start wondering "why do I feel so off?" The answer might not be a new productivity system or a better morning routine. It might just be three days in the woods. In this solo episode, I break down something I call the Three-Day Effect. It's the science-backed, real-world-tested idea that 72 hours in nature, fully off the grid and away from your screens, creates a measurable shift in your brain. More clarity. Better decisions. Deeper sleep. And a creative surge that no business coach, conference, or app can replicate. I've spent years studying and living the intersection of high performance and genuine happiness, and I've taken dozens of entrepreneurs into the Montana backcountry through the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventures. I've watched firsthand what happens when driven people finally stop and let their nervous systems breathe. And I'm telling you, the results are nothing short of life changing. Here's why these matters. Burnout is quiet. It doesn't always look like breaking down. Sometimes it looks like grinding harder, staying busier, and convincing yourself you just need one more win before you slow down. I've been there. And I want to call that out directly and give you both the science and the practical steps to do something about it. One of the biggest things I want you to take away is the neuroscience behind why this actually works. Dr. David Strayer, a cognitive neuroscientist out of the University of Utah, found that participants in a multi-day nature immersion showed a 47 percent improvement in creative problem solving. That's not a rounding error. That's your brain genuinely coming back online after being taxed by the demands of modern life. Your prefrontal cortex, the part responsible for focus, willpower, and decision making, gets hammered daily by notifications, stress, and screens. Nature doesn't demand that kind of attention from you. It restores it. I also walk you through what I call the three-day breakdown, because the timeline really matters. Day one feels like withdrawal. You're reaching for your phone, your jaw is tight, your sleep is light. Day two, something starts to shift. You notice the birds, the air, the light. Conversations go deeper. Old ideas start to surface. Then day three is where it all clicks. The prefrontal cortex finishes recharging, clarity sets in about your business, your relationships, your direction, and decisions that felt impossible suddenly feel obvious. I've watched multi-million-dollar deals get sealed around a campfire on day three, and honestly, it happens almost every single time. There's also a hard truth I share in this episode that I want you to sit with. If you can't step away from your business for 72 hours, you don't have a business. You have a job that owns you. The three-day reset isn't just a personal reset; it's also a diagnostic. It shows you what's working and what breaks the moment you walk away. That feedback alone is worth the trip. I also get practical about how to actually do this. You don't need Montana. You just need real nature, no screens, and a commitment to being fully present. Hike, journal, sit by a fire, breathe clean air, talk to people who inspire you. That's really the whole formula. Simple, honest, and free. If this resonates with you, I'd love for you to listen to the full episode at https://caryjack.com/podcastin/. You'll walk away with a clearer head just from hearing it, and maybe the nudge you've been waiting for to finally put that three days reset on the calendar.

Have you ever wondered why top CEOs and world-class fighters use hunger as a secret weapon to sharpen their focus and outwork everyone else? I gathered highlights from previous show episodes about fasting. I chat with Kyle about how he uses a clock to manage hunger. Joel Staley explains the science of fasts that go for days. He breaks down how insulin works so you avoid starvation. I share how aminos keep muscle and help the brain. We look at how Jack Dorsey and George Saint Pierre use hunger to get focus. I explain how giving the gut a break leads to repair. This show gives you a way to build willpower. I want you to see how hunger makes you a hunter Key Takeaways Intermittent Fasting as a Framework: A 16:8 structure acts as a "nutritional insurance policy" to manage cravings and prevent overeating during busy seasons. The 24-Hour Autophagy Curve: Completing a 24-hour fast provides three and a half times the cellular cleaning (autophagy) benefits of a 16-hour fast. The 36-Hour Euphoria: Entering deep ketosis around the 36-hour mark often leads to a state of high energy and mental clarity. Hormonal Growth: Prolonged fasts (48–72 hours) can skyrocket human growth hormone (HGH) by up to 2,400% in men. Brain Health and BDNF: Fasting stimulates Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor, which can increase learning speed and mental sharpness by up to 400%. The Role of Aminos: Utilizing leucine and glutamine during a fast protects muscle mass, supports neurotransmitters, and aids gut repair.

What if everything you thought about conventional fitness training was…wrong? In this week's episode of the "Money" Market Podcast, Olya Schaefer, founder of The Athleticus, breaks down the real science behind strength, recovery, and longevity, and why most busy professionals and execs are training completely inefficiently. From her roots in high-pressure tech startups to building a performance studio that's redefining fitness, Olya reveals how a "fail fast" mindset translates directly into peak physical transformation. They lunge into the shocking truth behind injury and aging, including the staggering statistic that up to 30% of adults over 65 won't survive a year after a hip fracture, and why strength training is your best defense. Olya dismantles common myths around bulking, protein intake, and cardio, while explaining the physique most people want actually comes from lifting heavy, not avoiding it. This conversation goes beyond aesthetics. It's about eliminating chronic pain, reclaiming mobility, and building a body that performs under pressure, whether you're an executive, athlete, or somewhere in between. You'll also learn the five core principles that deliver the highest ROI for strength, stability, and longevity. So, if you're busy, sitting too much, or just tired of feeling off, this episode is your wake-up call. Because fitness isn't a hobby. It's a strategy for how you show up for life.   WATCH NEXT: ED MONTANARI: FROM CITY COUNCIL TO JETSTREAM STRATEGIES – SHAPING ST.

When people talk about the Chicago Cubs and their historic 2016 World Series victory — ending a 108-year drought — names including players Kris Bryant, Kyle Schwarber, Ben Zobrist, manager Joe Maddon, and president of baseball operations Theo Epstein typically dominate the conversation. One name you rarely hear? Joshua Lifrak. Yet Joshua played a pivotal role in that championship season as the team's mental skills director — helping players perform under extraordinary pressure. And he has the World Series ring to prove it. Today, his arena has shifted from the dugout to the boardroom. As director of performance and coaching at Limitless Minds, he works with executives and business leaders to build mental resilience, sharpen focus, and perform at their best.

Most people watch the Olympics and see the result. Chari Hawkins lived two and a half decades of work to get there, and almost didn't make it. I sit down with US Olympian and world-class heptathlete Chari Hawkins for a wide-ranging conversation about what it actually takes to build mental toughness from scratch, compete at the highest level with a broken heart, and figure out who you are when the sport is no longer the whole answer.This is not a highlight reel conversation. Chari is honest about the panic attacks, the identity crises, the years of therapy, the breakdowns under a tent at track meets, and the visualization breakthrough that got her to the 2024 Paris Olympics. She's also sharp, curious, and deeply thoughtful about what sport teaches you about life, not the other way around. If you've ever had to do hard things while scared, this one is for you.What we explore:Why tying your identity to a single role, athlete, title, achievement, sets you up for a crisis the moment it ends.How Chari used a three-word visualization framework to silence the fear before the race that got her to Paris.Why mental toughness is not a personality trait, and what the actual work of building it looks like under pressure.What not winning a World Championship medal gave her that a podium finish never could have.How competition-day nutrition, breathwork, and sleep tools function as a performance system, and what happens when you get them wrong.Chapter:00:00 Intro01:35 Why Competing Can Disconnect You From Yourself10:56 Why She Chose the Heptathlon16:49 How to Learn New Skills Faster Than Everyone Else21:31 Sports Psychology Tools That Actually Work36:28 How to Support Someone After Failure49:25 The “See, Feel, Trust” Performance Technique01:00:10 Parenting, Discipline, and Mental Strength01:12:41 Peak Performance and Age in the Olympics01:24:05 Bouncing Back After a Devastating Moment01:34:46 What Losing Teaches You That Winning Can't01:36:54 What Athletes Eat on Competition Day01:47:08 Balancing Training, Recovery, and Performance01:51:05 A 30-Day Plan to Build Mental Strength02:00:22 Sprint Training Mindset and Workouts02:11:17 Overcoming Injury Fear and Recovery02:17:33 Sleep, Travel, and Mental Recovery Tools02:28:46 Future Goals and Final Lessons About Chari HawkinsChari Hawkins is a US Olympic heptathlete who competed at the 2024 Paris Olympics. One of the most mentally transparent athletes in track and field, she has spent over 20 years competing at the world-class level across seven events, from the 100 hurdles to the 800m, and has become as well known for her openness about the mental side of sport as she has for her performance.
