On today's episode, Andy and DJ are joined by Tim Grover. They answer your questions on how to approach success after a big failure, how to manage the pressure of high performance when others expect you to win, and what to do when long-term "hard work" hasn't produced desired results.

Frankly, making new friends kind of sucks. So I dove into exactly why it's so hard, and figured out that there's a key part of the friendship equation we're all missing these days, and unfortunately, our society is set up in a way that's making it worse every day. This is why so many of us feel so lonely despite following all of the friendship advice we read and hear.  I get into the REAL reason it's so hard to make best friends as an adult, and exactly how you can fix it.

What if the business model you've been duct-taping together is the very thing keeping you from the success you're meant for in 2026? Are you still arguing for your limitations while wondering why your growth has stalled? After a much-needed break to celebrate our wedding and recharge on our honeymoon, Jenni and I are back behind the mic to get real about the massive shifts happening in our industry! We've seen more disruption in the last 12 months than in the past two decades combined, and a "wait and see" approach is no longer an option.  In this episode, we unpack the mental shifts required to actually thrive in this new climate. We talk about why your true desires are actually a map to your purpose, how to stop self-sabotaging with goals that don't line up with your actions, and why you have to clean up the mental "mud" if you want to keep the results you're after. It is time to reclaim your agency and stop letting your brain's old predictions dictate what's possible for you, because the world needs your unique frequency now more than ever.

No one tells you this part.The part where you get the life you worked for…and instead of fireworks, something inside you quietly lets go.In this vulnerable solo episode, Ashley speaks to the moment after achievement. When success stops giving you dopamine, ambition goes quiet, and the identity that once kept you safe no longer fits.Not because anything went wrong, but because something finished.This episode isn't burnout, or ingratitude, or even “losing your edge.”It's about grief.The kind no one names.The grief of outgrowing the version of you who needed success to feel safe.Inside Ashley shares all about:✨ Why success often functions as an identity, not a goal✨ The unnamed grief that comes when ambition stops driving your nervous system✨ How motherhood exposes what achievement was really doing for you✨ Why neutrality can feel scarier than struggle for high-performing women✨ The moment success shifts from something you pursue to something you embodyThis episode is for the high-achiever who's confused by her own neutrality.The woman who thought she'd feel happier here.The leader quietly wondering who she is without the chase.Press play if you're ready to stop chasing who you were and meet who you're becoming.ASHLEY ON THE WEBASHLEY ON INSTAGRAMDOWNLOAD THE BIG COACH ENERGY TOOLKITAPPLY TO THE QUANTUM COACHING ACADEMY JOIN QUANTUM COACH CATALYSTLISTEN TO ASHLEY'S EXCLUSIVE PODCAST SERIES, BECOME THE BEST COACH VISIT THE BIG COACH ENERGY SHOP

What do you want? Success, power, wealth? Solomon beat you to it, and it still wasn't enough. Ross Lester explores King Solomon's rise and fall, demonstrating our need for a heart devoted to the Lord and steadfast obedience and humility.

On this solo episode of Travis Makes Money, Travis breaks down the mindset and habits required to deserve the success you say you want, not just wish for it. Using stories from his early podcasting days and his transition out of door-to-door sales, he explains how shifting from “this is what I want” to “this is what I deserve” changes how you think, act, and build your environment. On this episode we talk about: Why the show now releases three episodes every day and how each format (solo, co-hosted, interview) serves listeners The difference between wanting success and actually deserving it The “rat race” of chasing success versus becoming someone success is drawn to The core question: “How can I become someone who deserves the success that I desire?” The three pillars of deserving success: beliefs, actions, and relationships The origin and impact of the quote “Be so good they can't ignore you” in Travis's career The role of “delusional optimism” and belief, especially for younger people Why your environment and closest relationships can quietly shape your results Top 3 Takeaways Success isn't just about setting big goals; it's about becoming the kind of person for whom those goals are a natural byproduct—someone who truly deserves them. Beliefs, actions, and relationships form a stack: powerful beliefs fuel massive action, and the right environment reinforces both, making your desired success far more likely. You must dramatically increase your volume of action—so much that it would be unreasonable not to get results—while staying flexible about how your dreams ultimately come to life. Notable Quotes “How can I become someone who deserves the success that I desire?” “Be so good they can't ignore you.” “In the absence of clarity, take action. The clarity comes from taking the action.” Connect with Travis: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Twitter/X: https://x.com/travischappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell Website: https://travischappell.com Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the all-in-one sales & marketing platform built for agencies, by an agency.

“More success doesn't reduce pressure. It reveals how you hold it.”— Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon This episode is powered by The Ascension Archetype Quiz. If you are a high-performing leader who is doing well on paper but feel an undercurrent of pressure you can't quite explain, lean in. If your business is growing, your responsibility has expanded, and yet leadership feels heavier instead of freer, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are, trying to figure out how to manage the tension that feels like it's growing by the minute. We're talking about success pressure, leadership stress at higher levels, why growth doesn't automatically create peace, and what happens internally when your external results begin to outpace your sense of safety. This episode is for six- and seven-figure CEOs navigating leadership tension, decision fatigue, and the quiet strain that comes with having more to lose. Here's the truth: Success does not automatically create safety. In fact, the more responsibility you hold, the more your internal world is tested. Growth amplifies what hasn't been integrated yet. The pressure you feel isn't because you're doing something wrong. It's because leadership at this level requires a different kind of internal capacity than what got you here. You'll walk with language for an experience you may have been silently carrying. You'll understand why leadership pressure increases as success expands, how your body responds to having more at stake, and why strategy alone can't resolve the tension you feel. Most importantly, you'll gain clarity on how to lead in a way that brings steadiness instead of constant strain.  Grab your Move to Millions Podcast Notebook, a pen and your favorite beverage and listen in to discover: ✔ How to recognize why success can feel more pressurized at higher levels ✔ How to identify when leadership tension is about capacity, not competence ✔ How to stop interpreting internal pressure as a personal problem ✔And so much more This episode is a call to who have achieved real success and are privately wondering why it doesn't feel the way they expected it would. It's for leaders who are no longer confused about strategy, but are confused by the emotional and physical weight that success seems to bring. This conversation stands out because it names what most leadership spaces avoid: the internal pressure that emerges after the win. This is your invitation to stop pushing through the pressure and actually listen to what it's telling you. To pause long enough to recognize that what you're feeling isn't weakness, burnout, or failure. It's information. If leadership feels tense, heavy, or constantly alert right now, this episode will help you understand why and what to do next.

It's expansion without integration.” “Leadership gets heavier when responsibility grows faster than internal capacity.” “This market is exposing how leaders relate to safety, not how smart they are.” “What you're feeling is not wrong. It's information.” Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: When did leadership start to feel heavier for me, even though I was succeeding? What new responsibility am I carrying now that I wasn't prepared for internally? Where do I feel pressure or vigilance in my body when I think about sustaining my success? What does peace actually look like for me at this level? How might my leadership need to evolve to feel safer, not just stronger?  Want more of Darnyelle?

If Projectors are designed for success, why do so many of them feel stuck, overlooked, or burned out?  In this episode, Nicole explores one of the biggest misconceptions quietly holding Projectors back — especially in business. If you're a Projector who knows you're capable of more but keeps hesitating, second-guessing, or pulling back when things start to feel like "too much," this conversation will resonate. Rather than focusing on how much energy Projectors do or don't have, this episode reframes the issue entirely. Nicole breaks down how perception, past burnout, and outdated beliefs about capacity create invisible limits — and how those limits directly impact recognition, invitations, and success. What feels like self-protection may actually be the very thing standing in the way. You'll also hear why success for Projectors isn't about doing less, but about structuring things differently — with enough space, support, and self-trust to stay aligned. From time management to visibility, this episode challenges the idea that Projectors need to play small in order to stay well. If you're ready to stop limiting yourself, reconnect with what makes you magnetic, and redefine success on your own terms, this episode will leave you feeling grounded, empowered, and curious about what's possible next.

"Experiment. The ones who win are going to be those whose products AI can actually find, understand, and recommend."

Send us a textIn today's episode of Evolve Ventures Tech, we sit inside one of the most uncomfortable truths of modern life: certainty is gone, and pretending otherwise is quietly draining our stability. We examine how nonstop information, digital volatility, and collective fear reshape the nervous system, distort perception, and weaken emotional grounding. This episode does not offer false reassurance or easy fixes. It names what it actually feels like to live in a world where safety feels conditional, and the future feels unstable.Through a clarity-forward, psychologically grounded lens, we reveal why so many people are dysregulated without realizing it, why resilience is harder than ever, and what it takes to stay anchored without disconnecting from reality.Here are the related episodes, each one builds on today's conversation:#291 | Motivation Monday: 3 Simple Conflict Resolution Tools You Need to Know - https://apple.co/4rnXvHP #473 | The Tools You Need to Stop Emotionally Numbing - https://apple.co/46impk3Learn more about:

Step into Episode 197 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with chef Beau MacMillan for an unflinching conversation about what happens when 30 years of grinding finally collide with reality.Beau has lived the highlights—celebrity chef status, Iron Chef wins, cooking for Steven Tyler, Jerry Bruckheimer, Adam Sandler, and building Sanctuary into a 23-year Arizona institution. What often goes untold is what happens when validation, recognition, and performance stop being enough.Now over 50, Beau describes feeling mentally 19 and physically 76. Decades of 14-hour days, seven-day weeks, and constant pressure caught up to him. The shift began when his wife, after prioritizing her own health, told him plainly: “We've got all these kids, and they need us. I want you to be around.This episode doesn't start with résumés or origin stories. It starts with reckoning.Beau opens up about quitting smoking after a lifetime of loving cigarettes, going alcohol-free in an industry built around booze, and rebuilding his health incrementally so he can actually be present for his wife and five kids. The yacht chapter—cooking in the Caribbean, losing 75–80 pounds, fasting, and learning to eat for fuel instead of numbing—became the baseline he's been trying to return to ever since.But this conversation goes beyond personal health. It confronts the brutal reality of hospitality: stress is the root cause, and substances, food, and dopamine become coping mechanisms when the pressure never stops. Beau reflects on thriving in chaos, the rush of 350-cover nights, and how the same wiring that made him great also made him numb.Leadership and legacy take center stage as Beau challenges industry norms—calling for clean, organized, desirable kitchens, real mentorship, and cultures where people stay because they know they matter. Success, for him, was never titles or money, but “beautiful people, beautiful places, beautiful food.Chapter Guide (Timestamps)(0:00 – 2:40) Introduction: Skipping the Origin Story and Starting in the Present(2:41 – 8:40) Turning 50: Health Wake-Up, Family Priorities, Quitting Smoking and Alcohol(8:41 – 15:20) The Yacht Chapter: Solitude, Weight Loss, Fasting, and Food as Fuel(15:21 – 23:35) Food, Addiction, and Incremental Change: Nourishment Over Numbing(23:36 – 31:15) The Invisible Weight of the Grind: 7-Day Weeks and Dopamine Highs(31:16 – 40:00) Kitchens, Culture, and Retention: Why Young Chefs Are Leaving(40:01 – 46:30) Stress as the Root Cause: Healing Hospitality and Managing Pressure(46:31 – 55:30) Sanctuary Legacy: Mentorship, Relationships, and Redefining Success(55:31 – 1:04:00) Early Career and Recognition: Celebrity Diners, TV, and Iron Chef(1:04:01 – 1:12:30) The Handwritten Letter: Top Chef, Timing, and Full-Circle Moments(1:12:31 – 1:20:00) Arizona as Home: Community, Gratitude, and What's Simmering(1:20:01 – 1:27:30) Resting, Consulting, and Manifesting the Next Chapter(1:27:31 – End) Quiet Heroes, True Impact, and Final ReflectionsThis isn't a redemption story.

Send us a textWhen you hear the word success, what do you think of?Most people think of results. Wins. Outcomes. Money. Titles. Validation.Very few people think of peace of mind.In this episode, I challenge that definition—and honestly, I challenge myself. Because tying success to results is one of the fastest ways to lose control, stay unsettled, and carry unnecessary weight from the past.Here's the reframe: Success isn't a result. Success is peace of mind.I break down the three disruptors that quietly steal that peace—the past, your current positioning, and your phobias (fear)—and why obsessing over outcomes keeps you stuck. You'll hear why you can do everything “right” and still lose… or do everything “wrong” and still win… and why that alone proves results can't be the scorecard.This episode is about effort over outcomes, becoming over arriving, and learning how to end the day with self-satisfaction—knowing you made the effort, regardless of how it turned out.If you've been restless, unsettled, or measuring yourself by wins and losses alone, this is a reset.Success is peace of mind. The question is: do you have it?Support the show

Are you struggling with Sales?How do you get potential customers to say YES?Meet Patrick Van Der Burght!Patrick is a Cialdini Certified Trainer in Ethical Persuasion, Author of 'How to Hear YES More Often', a Podcast Host who teaches professionals to be ethically more persuasive using Behavioural Science. He has been teaching Ethical Persuasion since the year 2000, is a Founding Member of the Cialdini Institute, and a Cialdini Certified Trainer and Coach. One of his passions is to educate young adults about the life skills of ethical persuasion so they can benefit their entire lives and make the world a better place. School principals and School HR departments can approach him to make educational contributions to students ages 15-22.Research shows that unethical use of persuasion science leads to long-term disaster, and ethical use leads to both short- and long-term success. This is why teams (and your audience) really embrace this way of communicating, and use it.Success in your business and your private goals depends on convincing others about your products, services, or ideas. World-leading organisations urge businesses to develop their team's persuasion skills, and that businesses seek persuasion skills in new employees.On this episode, Patrick details why many confuse being persuasive vs being manipulative.Listen as Patrick shares:- why you are not making sales- how to build stronger relationships- what is Persuasion Science- ethically applying the persuasion principles- the 7 Principles of Persuasion- if it's ethical to persuade- manipulation vs ethical persuasion- how we make buying decisions- how to elevate your business communication- how successful business skyrocket their sales...and so much more!Connect with Patrick:Website: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.auAdditional Resoruces:FREE Resources on Ethical Persuasion"How To Hear YES More Often" by Patrick Van Der Burght on Amazon"Ethical Persuasion Unlocked Podcast" hosted by Patrick Van Der Burght"Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion" by Dr. Robert B.

Bible Study What God has called you to do comes with specific limitations that we must honor to succeed in our calling. Many people attempt to take on too much instead of staying focused on the specific calling God has given them. When we go beyond the boundaries of our calling, we lose focus, become distracted, and fail to fulfill our purpose. __________ Acts 6:1–2 NLT, Matthew 10:5–8 KJV, Matthew 15:22–24 NLT, Romans 15:14–16 NIV, Galatians 2:8 NIV, Mark 12:14–17 NLT, Luke 9:52–56 KJV, 1 Chronicles 17:1–7 NLT, John 14:12 NLT, 1 Chronicles 28:2–6 NLT, John 21:20–22 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________

As African startups mature, the leap from seed to growth brings a new set of challenges — longer fundraising cycles, institutional expectations, governance, and the realities of scaling across fragmented markets. In this episode of Fund/Build/Scale, I sit down with Ngetha Waithaka, partner at Norrsken22, one of the continent's leading growth-stage funds. We talk about how investors evaluate African startups as they approach Series A and beyond, how founders can tell whether their business is truly venture-scale, and when bootstrapping may be the smarter path. We also dig into practical issues founders don't always hear about early enough — institutional readiness, governance, cross-border expansion, and how currency volatility shapes long-term outcomes. If you're an African founder preparing for growth capital, or an operator trying to understand what serious investors are actually looking for, this episode offers a clear-eyed look at what it takes to build something durable. RUNTIME 46:36   EPISODE BREAKDOWN (2:13) Ngetha unpacks Norrsken 22's origin story and thesis (5:15) Should you bootstrap, or is your idea venture-scale? (10:30) Before talking to VCs, make sure you can demonstrate “institutional readiness” (15:05) African founders “have to start very early on the governance journey.” (20:17) Ngetha works with founders “from all over the map.” (22:55) Should African founders use Silicon Valley as a success model?

What if the biggest risk to your marketing AI strategy isn't the technology itself, but the org chart it's fracturing? Agility requires more than just speed; it demands a framework of trust and collaboration. When it comes to AI, this means your ability to innovate is directly tied to your ability to partner effectively across the organization, especially with IT and security. Today, we're going to talk about a critical tension point in the modern enterprise: Marketing is moving at the speed of AI, adopting powerful, often low-code tools to drive results. But this speed creates new complexities and risks, disrupting traditional roles and processes. Success is no longer just about having the best tech stack; it's about forging a strategic partnership between the CMO and IT leaders to balance innovation with governance, and productivity with security.

Winston Churchill once said, “Success is going from failure to failure without a loss of enthusiasm.” That's a nice sentiment—I mean, by and large it's good to let failure be a learning experience, to not let it discourage you from following your dreams. But…hear me out here: What if you're just a hot mess? What if every time you go from one failure to the next, you leave a pile of bodies in your wake? Can you be a little TOO good at failure? Should you sometimes maybe acknowledge “Hey, maybe this thing I'm trying to do isn't one of my strengths”? I think some of the people in this week's episode would have left the world a better place if they'd thrown in the towel.Registration is now open for CrimeWave 2.0!
