This episode is an adapted version of a presentation that Adam Barfoot, M.Ed., LPC-MHSP, gave at the 2026 Tennessee Licensed Professional Counselor Association conference in Nashville, Tennessee on May 30, 2026. This episode focuses on helpful insights for therapists and therapy clients from Stoic philosophy. While sharing stories, metaphors, and psychological integration of wisdom from a philosophy that has helped its learners to create meaning from trauma, strength from pain, and to choose virtue over vice for many centuries, Stoic philosophy can be well-implemented by therapists now to help their clients in powerful ways. ||| Adam's website: https://www.adambarfoottherapy.com/ ||| Books mentioned in this episode: Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy by Gerald Corey, The Complete Works: Handbook, Discourses, and Fragments by Epictetus, Mastery by Robert Greene, Resilience by Eric Greitens, Secrets of Exceptional Counselors by Jeffrey Kottler, On Character by General Stanley McChrystal

Wer ist Ryan Holiday – und warum führt für so viele Menschen der Weg zum Stoizismus über ihn? Anne und Alex sprechen in Episode 106 über den Bestsellerautor, Marketingprofi und Stoizismus-Popularisierer. Anne erzählt, wie Ryan Holiday für sie zum Einstieg in den Stoizismus wurde. Alex berichtet von seinem eigenen Zugang über William B. Irvine und The Daily Stoic. Gemeinsam schauen sie auf Holidays ungewöhnlichen Weg: vom Studienabbruch über Robert Greene, Marketing und Medienkampagnen bis zu seinen Büchern, Podcasts, Newslettern und der Buchhandlung The Painted Porch. Dabei geht es auch um die kontroversen Seiten: um Kommerzialisierung, Selbstoptimierung, die Nähe zu Silicon Valley und die Kritik, Ryan Holiday vereinfache die Stoa zu stark. Anne und Alex versuchen trotzdem, ein vielschichtiges Bild zu zeichnen: ein Mann zwischen Philosophie, Selbsthilfe, Marketing und politischem Engagement – und für viele Menschen eine erste Tür zur stoischen Philosophie. Achtung: Bitte entschuldigt die gegenüber sonst schlechtere Soundqualität an einigen Stellen. Es gab leider ein Problem mit einem Mikro.

The fastest way to kill a good initiative inside your law firm is to bring in too many decision-makers and give them no deadline. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill answer listener questions about why good ideas stall inside law firms, when impatience is an advantage versus a liability, and what effective delegation actually requires. Here's what you'll learn: Why reducing the number of decision-makers is the fastest way to eliminate operational friction How setting deadlines and working backwards from a go-live date forces real execution When a high-upside initiative deserves patience and when low returns signal you should move on Why delegating without clear context and constraints puts the outcome outside your control If speed and patience feel like opposites inside your firm, this conversation will sharpen how and when to use both.

Time management will only take you so far. The real edge comes from managing your energy. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Klaus Kleinfeld, the only executive to have served as CEO of two Fortune 500 companies on two continents. Years ago, Klaus watched a founder he knew collapse on the floor just weeks after closing a major funding round. That moment pushed him to put his leadership philosophy into his book, Leading to Thrive: Mastering Strategies for Sustainable Success in Business and Life. Klaus walks through the energy management framework that grew out of moments like that one, and why he's convinced discipline alone is never enough to sustain a career. Here's what you'll learn: Why pushing through exhaustion leads to worse decisions, not better ones How simple breathing techniques help executives stay in control during high-stakes negotiations What separates brutal, effective criticism from criticism that just shuts a team down This episode is the reminder every overscheduled leader needs: energy, not time, is the resource that actually runs out. (00:00:00) Introduction (00:02:51) Why Klaus decided to write his book (00:04:53) Inner game vs. outer game explained (00:06:33) Time management vs. energy management (00:09:25) The four sources of energy (00:15:48) How to recharge and build micro-habits (00:19:27) Reframing stress through breathing (00:22:52) CEO of two Fortune 500 companies (00:28:27) Five pillars of a high-performance team (00:32:43) Leading Alcoa through a commodity crash (00:36:05) What's next for Klaus ---- Links & Resources: Leading to Thrive: Mastering Strategies for Sustainable Success in Business and Life by Klaus Kleinfeld Jeff Bezos Elon Musk Omni Biotic Life Alcoa ---- Learn what sustainable growth can look like for your firm at crispcoach.com. ---- Do you love this podcast and want to see more game changing content?

¿Te gustaría que los clientes vinieran a buscarte a ti en vez de perseguirlos tú? ¿Que un buen trabajo por fin se notara sin tener que estar demostrándolo todo el rato?En este episodio completamos el resumen de Las 48 leyes del poder (1998), de Robert Greene, un libro que ha vendido más de 4 millones de copias y lleva 25 años incomodando a medio mundo. En la primera parte vimos las leyes defensivas, las que te protegen. En esta segunda entrega le toca a las leyes ofensivas, las que construyen ventaja de verdad.Greene da un giro claro entre las dos mitades del libro: en la primera, el peligro son los demás; en esta segunda, el principal obstáculo eres tú mismo, tus prisas, tu timidez, tu miedo a cobrar lo que vales, tu manía de perseguir clientes que no te quieren. De las 24 leyes ofensivas, selecciono 12 y las agrupo en 6 bloques: cómo hacer que los clientes vengan a ti, por qué se gana con hechos y no con discursos, cómo apelar al interés del otro, cómo hacer que tu imagen trabaje para ti, cómo concentrar tus fuerzas y dominar el momento oportuno, y cómo recrearte a ti mismo despreciando lo gratuito.

If your team keeps bringing you problems instead of solutions, the pattern started with you, not them. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle three listener questions that all trace back to the same root problem: staying stuck in reactive mode.

What could your mind do with just a few moments of silence? This week Robert Greene explores the liberation that comes from practicing enlightenment through silence, and how recognition of death tragedy help him manage adversity in his daily life. Listen in as we discuss why manipulation is part of our makeup, why recognizing our failings makes us better people, and how a near-encounter with death changed his perception of adversity. Robert Greene is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction, The 33 Strategies of War, and The 50th Law. His highly anticipated fifth book, Mastery, examines the lives of great historical figures such as Charles Darwin, Mozart, Paul Graham and Henry Ford and distills the traits and universal ingredients that made them masters. In addition to having a strong following within the business world and a deep following in Washington, DC, Greene’s books are hailed by everyone from war historians to the biggest musicians in the industry (including Jay-Z and 50 Cent). Greene attended U.C. Berkeley and the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where he received a degree in classical studies. He currently lives in Los Angeles.

The instinct that built your practice from scratch is the same instinct that's keeping it dependent on you. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Sam Goodner, a former officer in the Swiss Special Forces who went on to build and sell multiple technology companies, including Catapult Systems and Flash Parking. A call about his father's cancer diagnosis once pulled Sam out of his business for five weeks. He came back to find his team running things better without him, and realized he'd been the bottleneck all along. Now the author of Like Clockwork: Run Your Business with Swiss Army Precision, Sam breaks down how founders can build a practice that runs independently of them, from staging decision rights to designing a first day that sets the tone for years. Here's what you'll learn: Why the best predictor of future performance is a candidate's past, not a hypothetical answer What it takes to train your own replacement before anyone asks you to How codifying your best practices lets you step out of the day-to-day without losing quality If your firm still runs through you on every decision, this episode shows exactly where to start letting go.

¿Te ha pasado que, aunque hagas las cosas bien, hay alguien que te la tiene jurada? ¿Te gustaría detectar a la persona peligrosa antes de que te cueste dinero, y no después?En este episodio resumo Las 48 leyes del poder (1998), de Robert Greene, uno de los libros más polémicos, más vendidos y más incómodos de las últimas décadas. Es tan extenso que lo he dividido en dos partes: hoy, las leyes que te protegen.La tesis del libro es que la corte de Versalles nunca desapareció, solo cambió de decorado. Hoy la llamamos empresa, sector o grupo de socios, pero las dinámicas de poder son las mismas. Greene no te dice cómo debería funcionar el mundo, te dice cómo funciona de verdad, y con ese mapa puedes hacer dos cosas: usarlo para emboscar a otros o para que no te emboscen a ti.Este primer bloque son las leyes defensivas: cómo dejar de ser una víctima fácil sin volverte cínico, sin construir un búnker y sin dejar de ser buena gente.En este episodio vas a llevarte:✅ Cómo no eclipsar a quien tiene poder sobre ti sin renunciar a tu talento✅ Por qué cada palabra de más es munición gratis para el otro en una negociación✅ Cómo proteger tu reputación como una muralla y evitar que la envidia te dispare por la espalda✅ Por qué la amistad y la gratitud son un mal criterio para repartir poder en tu empresa✅ Cómo evitar aislarte o depender de un único cliente, socio o plataformaEste es el primer episodio de dos completos sobre este libro: la semana que viene cierro con la segunda mitad, las leyes que te dan ventaja. Además, esta semana tienes dos episodios de Power Skills los miércoles y uno de Pasa a la Acción el viernes, todos extraídos de este mismo libro. Hosted on Acast.

What if not wanting to be a leader is exactly what makes you a good one? In this AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle three questions law firm owners keep sending in: why good employees walk out the door even after a raise, whether leadership can really be taught, and what to do when you catch yourself repeating the exact behavior you swore you'd never repeat. It's a candid conversation about what it actually takes to lead people, even when leading was never the plan. Here's what you'll learn: Why turnover in your firm rarely comes down to one cause How to lead your team when management never came naturally What it takes to stop repeating the leadership habits you swore you'd avoid The best leaders never stop asking whether they could be better.

Eddy Arriola has built and sold multiple companies, and by his own account, he did it without ever being the smartest person in the room. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Eddy Arriola, founder of Apollo Bank and author of It's All About Relationships, to talk about the real driver behind his companies' success: the people around him. Eddy walks through the six categories of relationships every leader has to manage, why pausing before you react can save a partnership, and how trust is what actually holds a growing business together, more than authority ever will. It's a grounded, practical look at how the best leaders build the kind of teams and networks that carry them through hard times. Here's what you'll learn: Why relationships, not strategy or capital, are what actually scale a business How to build trust with your team instead of just demanding compliance Why pausing before reacting can save your most important partnerships Your business will only grow as fast as the relationships holding it together, so start building the right ones today.

Most entrepreneurs are surrounded by people who love them and still have no idea what they're going through. In this AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill unpack why building a business can feel so lonely, even when you're surrounded by people who care about you. They answer three listener questions: how to close the gap with a spouse who can't fully relate, why chasing a challenge outside the business keeps you sharper inside it, and why family members and peers are rarely equipped to give meaningful advice. Michael's advice is simple: stop trying to get people to understand, and go find people who already do. Here's what you'll learn: Why the people who love you most still can't relate to what you're building How to invest in yourself in a way most entrepreneurs overlook Where to find people who've actually lived what you're going through Feeling isolated right now doesn't mean something's wrong. You just haven't found your people yet.

The same instincts that make a great lawyer can be the exact thing keeping them from asking for help. In this encore episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Brian Cuban, an attorney, author, and long-term recovery advocate, for a raw account of the depression, eating disorder, and addiction that nearly ended his life, and the moment he finally chose to fight for it. Brian pulls back the curtain on what drives so many lawyers toward substance abuse in silence, and why the legal profession's culture of strength makes it one of the hardest places to ask for help. This is a candid look at what recovery actually requires, and what it means to build a profession where struggling colleagues don't have to hide. Here's what you'll learn: Why lawyers face a higher risk of addiction, and why the profession makes it so hard to admit it How to spot the early warning signs before they become a rock-bottom moment What it takes to build a compassionate community that helps colleagues before they have to hit bottom Brian walked back from the edge. His story is here for anyone who needs to know it's possible.

Consistency isn't a personality trait. It's the product of commitments you refuse to negotiate and environments that won't let you coast. In this AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill dig into why most law firm owners plateau not because of talent or effort, but because they've outgrown the peers around them. From honoring the commitments you made when you were clear-headed to seeking out rooms where friction and accountability are features (not bugs), this conversation is a blueprint for the kind of consistency that compounds over years, not weeks. Here's what you'll learn: Why the commitments you make when motivated can't be renegotiated when you're not How to identify and seek out high-friction environments that attract higher-caliber peers What it takes to build systems that outlast motivation and make consistency automatic If you've been coasting on talent and wondering why results have flatlined, this episode will help you level up.

Here's what you'll learn: Why a good decision can still produce a bad outcome, and a bad one can still win How confirmation bias convinces smart people they've already got it right What it takes to know the difference between grit that pays off and grit that's costing you Good decisions and good outcomes are not the same thing.

Some of the most useful things a leader will ever hear are the ones nobody says to their face. This greatest-hits AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast pulls together six of the questions firm owners struggle with most, and Michael and Jessica Mogill answer each one with the candidness that comes from experience. The underperformer you keep protecting. The high-stakes call you can't seem to make. The endless learning that never turns into action. The anger that built your firm and now runs it into the ground. These are the takes most leaders only wish someone would tell them. Here's what you'll learn: Why the hardest conversation on your calendar only gets more expensive the longer you delay it How to make a high-stakes call with 70% of the information instead of waiting for certainty that never comes What it takes to trade spite-driven hustle for a vision that actually lasts The advice most leaders need isn't complicated.

What if the real reason your best people leave has nothing to do with money, and everything to do with the first 100 days? In this encore of episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill welcomes Joey Coleman, client experience expert and New York Times bestselling author of Never Lose an Employee Again, to break down the 8 phases every team member moves through and what it actually looks like to build a workplace people refuse to leave. Here's what you'll learn: Why "new hire's remorse" kicks in seconds after someone accepts your offer (and how to counteract it) How to make a team member's first day so remarkable they can't stop talking about it when they get home What separates firms with true advocates from those who can't even get an internal referral If your onboarding still looks like a binder and a benefits form, this is your playbook for something better.

You can do anything. But you can't do everything all at the same time. So why do so many firm owners keep trying? In this AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle questions that all circle the same problem: spreading yourself too thin and expecting elite results. From personal brand building that never seems to pay off, to years that vanish on autopilot, to firm initiatives that stall because no one can focus long enough to finish them. The through line is clear: the fastest path to growth is doing fewer things with far greater intensity. Here's what you'll learn: Why building a personal brand with the intent to monetize it immediately almost always backfires (and what to do instead) How to break out of "NPC autopilot mode" using weekly reflection prompts that force honest self-assessment Why the best results in business come from serious, singular commitments rather than surface-level effort across five priorities If you want to see results faster, stop adding and start subtracting.

Episode 54 of Pursuit of Balance. This one started with a quarterly review with one of my coaches and turned into a full breakdown of human motivation. I walk through the ten things that drive us, from money and status to impact, autonomy, identity, and fear, and I split them into three categories: fuel that burns fast, fuel that burns slow, and fuel that compounds. I also get into whether a competitive personality is actually required for success, what I found when I went looking for the research, and Robert Greene's mastery arc from his book Mastery, including apprenticeship, deliberate practice, finding a mentor, and social intelligence. If you have ever felt motivated in seasons and flat in others, this one is for you.

In this episode of Wash Talk: The Carwash Podcast, host Kyle Alexander is joined by Phil Marquart, founder of Dencar and operator of United Auto Wash, and Robert Greene, owner of Georgia's Car Wash Express at The Car Wash Show™. The conversation covers unattended carwash membership technology and how it's transforming the self-serve and in-bay automatic segments. Marquart traces the origins of Dencar to a frustration he faced as an operator: No existing payment technology could sell a membership at an unattended in-bay automatic site directly through the kiosk interface. After a failed partnership with an outside vendor, he built the solution himself and has spent the past eight years refining it with operators like Greene.Greene shares his own journey from building a multi-format mega site in 2008 to spending years unable to extend membership programs beyond his attended express tunnel locations. After discovering Dencar at The Car Wash Show™ in 2022, he began a full rollout that now spans all nine of his coastal Georgia sites. The result: More than 600 new members added in 2026 alone across established locations, with zero on-site staff required to sell or manage them. The episode covers how Dencar's site-level membership model allows customers to bundle self-serve bays, in-bay automatics and vacuum stations into a single program.The conversation looks ahead to the next phase for both companies: deeper integration with marketing platforms to add drip campaigns and outbound lead generation to what is already a capable unattended carwash membership technology stack.

What if the quality your team calls "intimidating" is the same thing responsible for every result you've ever produced? In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle three listener questions about the uncomfortable truths of firm leadership: what to do when anonymous feedback calls you intimidating, how to stop letting partner consensus paralyze decisions, and why the partner who drives accountability always ends up labeled the villain. This conversation draws a clear line between high standards and bad behavior, and shows why getting to the truth matters more than being popular. Here's what you'll learn: Why seeking 100% partner consensus on every strategic decision is quietly stalling your firm's growth How to hold exceedingly high standards and still create a culture where your team tells you the truth What "disagree and commit" looks like in practice, and why it builds more trust than endless debate If your firm's best ideas keep dying in committee and your team's real feedback never reaches you, this episode explains exactly why.

Hey friends, Chase here. Every summer, I revisit conversations from the archive that have stood the test of time. Not because I'm nostalgic, but because the best ideas don't expire. They deepen. This is another installment of Summer School—the set of episodes I personally return to the most when I'm stuck and need something true to lean on. This one with Ryan Holiday is high on that list. I've gone back to it multiple times this year alone. Ryan is a legend—author, media strategist, New York Times bestselling writer, and the person who brought Stoic philosophy into popular culture for a generation of creatives and entrepreneurs. This conversation is from 2017, before he'd fully hit the stride we know him for now. He'd already published something like six books in five years. He was already a force. And yet you can hear, in this episode, exactly where his work was headed. What stands out isn't just marketing tactics. It's framing. Good marketing isn't only writing good copy or taking a nice product photo. It's making work that starts a discussion. It's asking better questions before you begin. And it's using your own mindset—perception, action, will—to keep going when the creative path gets hard. Those tools were spot on then. They're truer now. Nobody cares what you're thinking about doing. Talk about your ideas after you've started them and then show people what you've done. Summer School: Ryan Holiday on Stoicism, Marketing, and Creating Work That Lasts Ryan dropped out of college at 19 to work with Robert Greene, became director of marketing at American Apparel, and later built Brass Check, advising clients like Google, Tim Ferriss, and Tony Robbins. Then he did something that looked, on paper, like career suicide: he wrote Trust Me, I'm Lying—a book about how marketers, companies, and politicians manufacture and manipulate attention online. Instead of burning his marketing career down, it opened writing as a profession. He began identifying as a writer first—keeping a hand in marketing so he wouldn't only comment from the sidelines. That tension runs through the whole episode: how information spreads, what it means to compete for attention, and how to build work that doesn't disappear after the launch week. At the center is Perennial Seller—the art of making and marketing work that lasts. Not the fidget-spinner hit. Not the trend piece. The Original Pantry Cafe that never closes. The book that sells more copies year after year because it solves a real problem. The boot that gets better the longer you wear it. If you're a creator, entrepreneur, or leader trying to make something that matters—and survive the noise long enough for it to land—this episode is still one of the sharpest in the archive. What You'll Hear in This Episode Why Ryan left New York for a cattle ranch outside Austin—and how distance, physical work, and humility made him better at the cerebral work How Trust Me, I'm Lying mapped the attention economy years before "fake news" became a daily phrase Why modern marketing is less about perfect product shots and more about starting conversations A practical crash course in Stoicism: perception, action, and will Ego vs. confidence—and how to market without marketing to yourself Austin Kleon's line: you can't be the noun without doing the verb What makes a perennial seller—and why industries obsess over "new" while most of their money comes from what lasts The "other 50%": craft gets you in the door; packaging, positioning, relationships, and community finish the race Two questions before every project: Who is this for? What does this do for them? Three Stoic Disciplines for Creatives Ryan's version of Stoicism is deliberately practical. Not academic debate—the art of living. Philosophy for the role you're already in: photographer, founder, writer, leader. He walks through three disciplines: 1. Perception How do you look at the situation? Someone is rude. Your company is in trouble. Your work isn't getting seen. Do you decide it's unfair, impossible, purely negative—or do you look for what you can actually use? The Stoics' move: there's no inherent good or bad—there's how we look at things. We don't control most of what happens to us. We do control the last crucial part: what we tell ourselves it means. Marcus Aurelius did that work through writing—Meditations as a private practice of catching your own mind in the act. 2. Action Seeing differently isn't enough. What do you do with the information? Ryan's favorite cut: Casey Neistat telling someone pitching a business idea, essentially—don't tell me the idea. Tell me when you've started it, then show me what you've made. Thinking about running a marathon doesn't count. Starting does. This is the discipline that kills the fantasy. Ideas are cheap. Execution is the only proof. 3. Will How do you handle the moments when life kicks your ass and you can't reverse them? Ryan tells the Edison story: factory on fire, son shell-shocked, Edison telling him to get his mother—she'll never see a fire like this again. Even what you can't control can still transform you. Hardship is often the filter that keeps everyone who doesn't want it as badly as you do from finishing. If it were easy, there'd be more amateurs—and less value. Perennial Seller (and the Other 50%) The face-palm insight behind Perennial Seller: the New York Times bestseller list doesn't track perennial sellers—yet a huge share of publishing income comes from books that came out years or decades ago. Industry attention chases "new." Durable value often lives elsewhere. Ryan's frame for durable work is almost annoyingly clear: This is a blank that does blank for blank. Who is it for—really? Not "everyone" or "smart people." Actual humans. Where they live. What they do. What does it do for them? His editor's line: it's not what a book is—it's what a book does. Then comes Chase's "other 50%," which Ryan amplifies: making the thing is a marathon. Finishing it doesn't mean you've won. There's a second marathon waiting—marketing, packaging, relationships, platform, the bridge from your desk into someone else's life. "If you build it, they will come" has killed a lot of great work. You're not just competing with peers who launched this week. You're competing with time-tested work that already lives on Netflix, in bookstores, in cultural memory. Title, cover, logo, copy, collaborators—these aren't afterthoughts. They're part of the creative expression. Books have covers because people judge them. Your work does too. And if you're already hunting for shortcuts before you've started? That's a signal. Principles over formulas. The shortcuts get exploited the moment they work for everyone. Timecodes So You Can Jump Around 00:00 – Welcome and why this episode is part of Summer School 04:52 – Ryan Holiday joins; life on a ranch outside Austin 09:14 – From renegade marketer to writer: Trust Me, I'm Lying and how attention spreads 15:05 – Why marketing today means starting a discussion 16:58 – Stoicism as a practical art of living 21:54 – Discipline one: perception 25:34 – Discipline two: action (start it, then show it) 28:47 – Discipline three: will (Edison's fire and transforming hardship) 31:36 – Ego vs. confidence; marketing without marketing to yourself 37:01 – Fall in love with the verb, not the noun 40:14 – Perennial Seller: the art of making work that lasts 47:08 – "This is a blank that does blank for blank" 51:07 – Habits of people who make great work (editors, collaborators, objectivity) 54:47 – The other 50%: craft plus packaging, relationships, and community 01:04:35 – Frameworks: Who is this for? What does this do? 01:19:05 – Daily Stoic, memento mori, and closing thoughts Why This Conversation Still Matters In 2017, Ryan was already describing an attention landscape where your best work competes with cats, outrage, porn, fake news, and infinite other options in the feed. That landscape didn't calm down. It accelerated. What still cuts through is the opposite of trend-chasing: work built on timeless problems, principles that survive platform changes, and the humility to keep doing the verb while everyone else celebrates the noun. When I'm stuck—when the world feels noisy and my own next project feels either too precious or too thin—I come back to this episode for the same reminders: Control how you see it. Take action. Let the hard parts transform you. Ask who it's for and what it does. Don't confuse finishing the making with finishing the work. Fall in love with the craft more than the identity. And don't wait until you feel safe to do the honest version of the thing. That's why it's Summer School material. The platforms changed. The books multiplied. The stakes got louder. The questions held. Keep Going Deeper If this conversation resonates: Perennial Seller: The Art of Making and Marketing Work That Lasts The Obstacle Is the Way Ego Is the Enemy Trust Me, I'm Lying Daily Stoic: dailystoic.com Ryan online: ryanholiday.net Follow Ryan: Website | X/Twitter | Facebook Questions to Reflect On Am I still stuck in "thinking about" the project—or have I started something I can show? Where am I treating a hard situation as a verdict, instead of as information I can act on? Am I marketing to an audience—or marketing to myself? Have I fallen in love with the noun (author, founder, photographer) more than the verb? If I had to fill in "This is a ___ that does ___ for ___," could I do it clearly—today? Where have I finished the making and abandoned the second marathon: positioning, packaging, relationships, community? Am I building on timeless problems—or on platforms and tactics that may not survive the next cycle? The Core Idea Work that lasts isn't the work that wins the news cycle. It's the work that keeps solving something real for someone specific—long after the launch adrenaline fades. Ryan's invitation in this conversation is both simple and demanding: sharpen your perception, take action before you announce, let difficulty refine you, kill the ego that wants applause without evidence, and build for durability instead of novelty. If there's one lesson worth carrying forward from this Summer School session, it's this: Make something that starts a conversation—and lasts long enough to deserve one.

What if the thing separating high performers from everyone else has nothing to do with skill? In this encore episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill revisits his conversation with Rich Diviney, retired Navy SEAL Commander and bestselling author of The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance. Rich reveals why the innate qualities that define how we show up under stress, challenge, and uncertainty are far more predictive of success than any resume credential or technical ability, and what that means for leaders building teams in high-stakes environments. Here's what you'll learn: Why the attributes that drive performance under uncertainty can't be taught the same way skills can, and how to develop them anyway How to identify what separates someone who thrives under pressure from someone who folds, long before the pressure arrives What the five categories of attributes (grit, drive, mental acuity, leadership, and team ability) reveal about your own performance profile and the teams you build If you've ever wondered what it actually takes to build a team that performs when things don't go as planned, this conversation is your blueprint.

Marcus Aurelius Anderson sits down with Ed Hinman, Marine infantry officer veteran, public figure protection specialist, historian, and author of The Barbarian in You. Ed shares how his time at the Naval Academy, deployments across Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Africa, and a pivotal reckoning with ego and identity led him to build a life around three core principles: vigor, wonder, and fellowship. Drawing on history, philosophy, and hard experience, Ed makes the case that living a full life is not about optimization — it's about reconnecting with the most primal, truest parts of yourself. The conversation weaves through the creative life, the craft of writing, the mentorship of Steven Pressfield, the wisdom of Montaigne, Emerson, and Marcus Aurelius, and the courage it takes to follow what resonates rather than what looks good on paper. Episode Highlights: 1:54 - Ed and Marcus discuss the mentorship of Steven Pressfield and the discipline required to show up for the creative life 29:44 - Ed introduces his three-part philosophy of vigor, wonder, and fellowship as a framework rooted in how pre-civilized humans actually lived 49:23 - Ed recounts his Marine Corps career, the ego-driven disappointment of deployments that went nowhere, and how psychosomatic pain forced him to ask what he actually wanted 58:58 - Ed and Marcus explore the idea of listening to intuition over empirical evidence, following resonance rather than a prescribed path, and why the barbarian in you is the truest version of yourself Ed Hinman served as an infantry officer in the United States Marine Corps, graduating from the Naval Academy and deploying five times across Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Africa before earning a master's degree in history and building a career in public figure protection with Gavin de Becker's firm. He is the author of The Barbarian in You and the founder of the Barbarian in You blog, where he writes about history, strength, friendship, and the philosophy of living with vigor, wonder, and fellowship.

What if the data you're obsessing over is the very thing capping how far you can go? In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Andy Walshe, the human performance leader behind Red Bull's high-performance program and the Felix Baumgartner stratosphere jump. They dig into why the metrics everyone chases can only take you so far, and why the traits that truly separate elite performers (character, creativity, how you show up when it's hard) are the ones almost no one is actually training. It's a look under the hood of what elite performance really requires when the stakes are highest. Here's what you'll learn: How character, not metrics, can be the real dividing line between good and elite How to train creativity as a skill instead of treating it as a gift you're born with What it takes to perform under extreme pressure when everything is on the line If you've been optimizing the measurable and ignoring the human, this is your wake-up call.

The advice you respect most might be the exact thing keeping your firm stuck. In this AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill tackle one of the hardest questions in growth: whose advice do you actually follow? Sparked by a listener stuck between her own instinct to get ahead of AI and a respected managing partner telling her to "let everyone else be the guinea pig," Michael breaks down why waiting out a technological shift is a decision you'll regret, why the source of advice matters as much as the content, and why doing great work means nothing if you don't market it. Here's what you'll learn: Why waiting on AI is a permanent competitive disadvantage rather than a safe hold How to tell when a mentor's advice fits your season and when it's holding you back What it takes to turn great work into the visibility that actually wins the best cases Your competitors aren't waiting for permission, and neither should you.

You clawed your way to the top. So why does the fire that got you there feel like it's going out? In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Tom Mitchell, the sports psychologist who spent 14 years with the Golden State Warriors and co-authored “The Winning Spirit” with NFL legend Joe Montana. They dig into how elite performers keep their edge long after the money and titles roll in, why the best leaders coach with questions instead of commands, and how one conversation can turn locker-room friction into championship chemistry. It's a masterclass in the mental game, built for the court and the boardroom alike. Here's what you'll learn: Why owning your strengths (not fixing your weaknesses) is what actually gets you paid How to have courageous conversations that eliminate partnership friction instead of letting it fester Why a relentless inner "burn" outlasts raw talent, and how to reignite it when a team gets comfortable Pressure is a privilege, and this episode will change how you carry it.

In this AMMA episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael and Jessica Mogill answer three questions from law firm owners who all made it to the other side of success and found something missing. Michael offers advice beyond the usual "set a bigger goal" answer, getting into the mechanics of sustaining performance, why running at full throttle stops working as you scale, and knowing when the grind is actually the right move. Here's what you'll learn: How to rebuild drive when achieving the goal leaves you flat instead of fulfilled Why "simplify complexity" is the first move when growth outpaces your systems How to pace a team for consistent output instead of burning it out at full intensity If you've won the thing you set out to win and it feels quieter than you expected, this one recalibrates what comes next.
