How to Perform Under Pressure with Steve Magness

Why do some people rise to the occasion under pressure while others tighten up? Whether it's a big presentation or a job interview, pressure has a way of making us tighten up and second-guess ourselves. We think the goal is to eliminate stress. But what if that's actually not the best approach? In this conversation, I sit down with performance expert Steve Magness to talk about why pressure isn't the enemy and how the best performers learn to use it to their advantage. We talk about the difference between stress and pressure and the practical tools you can use to quiet your inner critic and perform at your best when the stakes are high. By the end of this conversation, you'll think differently about pressure and walk away with practical strategies you can use the next time you find yourself in a high-pressure moment.

The Hidden Reason High Achievers Burn Out with Dr. Kristen Holmes

Why do so many high achievers burn out? Most of us think recovery is what happens after the work is done. We push through the week, take care of everyone else, and tell ourselves we'll slow down later. But according to Dr. Kristen Holmes, Global Head of Human Performance at WHOOP, recovery isn't separate from high performance. It's an essential part of it. In this conversation, I sit down with Kristen to unpack the science behind sustainable high performance and why recovery plays a much bigger role than most of us realize. We talk about why sleep consistency matters more than sleep duration, the habits that have the biggest impact on our energy, and how to stop running on empty. By the end of this conversation, you'll have a new way of thinking about recovery and practical strategies to put into practice right away.

How to Stop Rushing and Be More Present with Oliver Burkeman

Are you so busy getting through your life that you're never fully present for it? We rush from one thing to the next, convinced that if we can just get ahead, clear the to-do list, or better optimize our time, we'll finally have space to enjoy the life we've worked so hard to build. But that moment never seems to come. In this conversation, I sit down with Oliver to unpack how we can rethink our relationship with time and be more intentional about where our attention goes. We talk about why high achievers feel perpetually behind, how our need for control fuels anxiety, and why accepting our limitations can actually be freeing. By the end of this conversation, you'll think differently about time and walk away with a more freeing way to pursue big goals while being present for the life you're living now.

How to Feel Stronger, Healthier, and More Energized at Any Age with Dr. Stacy Sims

So many high-performing women take care of themselves, stay active, and make healthy choices, yet still find themselves wondering: Why don't I feel better? According to Dr. Stacy Sims, one of the world's leading experts on female physiology and performance, part of the reason is that most of the health and fitness advice women follow is based on research conducted on men. In this conversation, I sit down with Stacy to unpack what women actually need to support their energy, performance, and long-term health. We talk about the biggest misconceptions surrounding women's health, why strength training matters more than ever after 40, the truth about fasting and cardio, and how to think differently about sleep, recovery, longevity, and overall well-being.

Why You Never Feel Like You Have Enough Time with Dr. Cassie Holmes

If you had more time, would you finally be happier? Most of us believe the answer is yes. We tell ourselves that if we could just clear our calendars, get through the to-do list, or find a few extra hours in the day, we'd feel less stressed and more fulfilled. But according to UCLA professor and bestselling author Dr. Cassie Holmes, that's not how it works. In this conversation, I sit down with Cassie to unpack the surprising science of time and happiness. We explore why so many high performers feel constantly rushed, the hidden costs of "time poverty," and why having more free time doesn't necessarily lead to greater fulfillment. By the end of this conversation, you'll think differently about time and walk away with practical strategies to feel less overwhelmed and more fulfilled with the time you already have.

Why Talented Teams Still Underperform with Ron Friedman

Why do so many talented teams still underperform? The answer surprised me. Most people assume the answer is more collaboration, better chemistry, or simply working harder. But workplace psychologist and bestselling author Ron Friedman, author of the new book Superteams, says the highest-performing teams operate very differently. In this conversation, I sit down with Ron to unpack the hidden habits that separate average teams from the great ones. We talk about why too much collaboration can actually hurt performance, the surprising science behind smarter team decisions, and the small shifts leaders can make to help teams perform at a higher level. Ron shares practical, research-backed strategies and challenges some of the myths keeping teams stuck and underperforming. By the end of this conversation, you'll rethink what great teamwork actually looks like and walk away with actionable tools you can apply immediately with your own team.

How to Rewire the "I'm Not Enough" Belief That's Holding You Back with TOMS Founder Blake Mycoskie

If success is supposed to make you feel fulfilled… why do so many high achievers still feel like they're not enough? You hit the goal. You build the career. You create the life you thought would finally make you feel fulfilled… and somehow, it still doesn't feel like enough. Blake Mycoskie built TOMS into a global phenomenon and became one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world. But behind the success, he was quietly battling depression and wrestling with a deeper question he never expected: "Am I enough?" In this conversation, we unpack why so many high performers struggle in silence and what it actually looks like to keep your ambition without losing yourself in the process. By the end of this conversation, you'll walk away with a different way to think about success and self-worth.

The 7 Beliefs That Predict Your Success with Happiness Expert Shawn Achor

Most people are trying to change their results without ever changing the beliefs creating them. We tweak habits, push harder, and chase bigger goals— but underneath it all, our beliefs are shaping what we see, what we go after, and what we think is possible. In this conversation, I sit down with Shawn Achor, author of The Power of Beliefs, to break down the seven core beliefs the science shows actually predict your success. We talk about how your brain filters reality, why beliefs like "I matter" and "my behavior matters" can fundamentally change the trajectory of your life and leadership, and how to start rewiring the ones that may be holding you back. By the end of this conversation, you'll start to see the beliefs driving your results— and how to shift them so they start working for you, not against you.

The Hidden Cost of Chasing Outcomes (And What to Do Instead) with Coach Cori Close

We love to celebrate winning—but we don't talk enough about what it takes to get there without losing yourself along the way. After 15 years as the head women's basketball coach at UCLA, Cori Close just led her team to a national championship. But behind that moment was a constant tension so many high performers face: Can you compete at the highest level without compromising what you believe in? In this conversation, Cori shares how she learned to manage that tension instead of trying to eliminate it—and why chasing outcomes can quietly pull you away from what matters most. From building a culture rooted in daily standards to redefining success beyond banners and rings, she offers a blueprint for leaders who want both excellence and alignment. By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with a new way to think about success—one that's built on who you become, not just what you achieve.
