Are You Chasing Stress Instead of Success? Do you ever feel like you're constantly chasing the next thing—only to realize you're too stressed to enjoy any of it? I know that feeling all too well. One of my biggest regrets in life is how much time I’ve spent in stress instead of in the moment. And I know I’m not alone. Stress isn’t happening in the present—it lives in the future. It’s worrying about problems that don’t even exist yet. But here’s the truth: Peace and productivity only exist in the now. If you’re always “future traveling,” always chasing the next achievement, the next milestone, the next weekend… you’ll never truly arrive. In this episode, I’ll share a powerful lesson I learned from a street artist in Central Park that will change the way you approach your dreams. Because here’s the key—you CAN have big goals and dreams without letting them steal your joy. You CAN move toward a vision for your life while still being fully present in the moments that matter. The difference between success that’s fulfilling and success that leaves you empty comes down to one thing: learning how to balance focus on the future with presence in the now. This episode is your wake-up call to stop escaping into stress and start living in the richness of the present. Key Takeaways: Why stress only exists in the future—and how to break free from it The difference between having a vision and “future traveling” A simple mindset shift that will help you enjoy the journey AND the destination How the most successful people separate from outcomes and stay present The one thing that will make your relationships, career, and happiness better instantly Your life is happening right now—don’t miss it.

We break down the different types of intelligence and how understanding them can transform your confidence, your parenting, your leadership, and even your business.

We also get into the future—how AI is reshaping intelligence, what true leadership looks like, and why being "smart" isn’t enough.

Are You Playing Chess or Checkers With Your Life? Most people go through life playing checkers—reacting to what’s in front of them, making moves one at a time with no long-term strategy. But those who truly win? They’re playing chess. They’re creating patterns, structures, and behaviors that set them up for success at the highest level. In this episode, we’re breaking down a concept that has fascinated me—how much of our behavior is inherited, and how much is learned? If alligators instinctively know how to survive freezing temperatures without ever being taught, what does that mean for us? Could we be operating on deep-seated patterns that go back generations? And if that’s true, how do we break free and build the life we were meant to live? The key isn’t endless self-analysis. Too many people spend their lives looking back, trying to dissect every piece of their past instead of stepping forward into their future. Your ability to adapt—to create new structures, new habits, and new ways of thinking—is what determines whether you stay stuck or level up. The thoughts and behaviors that got you here won’t take you to the next level. At some point, you have to stop asking why everything happened to you and start asking what you’re going to do next. You have a mission, a purpose, and a calling. That’s why you’re still here. It’s time to build the structure that will take you where you were always meant to go. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: ✅ Why self-reflection is valuable—but self-analysis can hold you back ✅ How to identify patterns in your life that may be inherited, not chosen ✅ The one mindset shift that separates people who stay stuck from those who elevate ✅ Why adaptation—not just understanding—is the key to success ✅ How to build new habits and structures that align with your next level Your best days aren’t behind you. They’re still ahead—if you’re willing to make the necessary changes. Max out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
