Post‑achievement trauma and identity loss

The Discipline of Focus: How to Start Winning Again In this mashup episode, I’ve brought together four powerhouse voices including myself, Codie Sanchez, Damar Hamlin, and James Lawrence, to uncover what it really takes to build an unshakable focus and eliminate the distractions that steal our greatness.

I'm breaking down the hard truths about the secret things in your life that are stealing your attention and ultimately your bliss. I'm also giving you the truth about sacrifice and the true cost of winning at anything in life. Codie Sanchez shares a mindset shift that hit me hard: stop setting goals, start setting sacrifices. She reveals how true success begins when you decide in advance what price you’re willing to pay and refuse to negotiate with yourself once the work starts. You’ll hear how she and her Navy SEAL husband built their lives around discipline, eliminating decision fatigue, and choosing obsession over comfort. Then, Damar Hamlin delivers one of the most powerful messages I’ve ever recorded about resilience and perspective. This is a man who literally fought for his life on live television and came back stronger. His advice? Take it one step at a time. Don’t drown in self-pity. Move. Even when life knocks you down, you’ve got to keep putting one foot in front of the other. He’ll remind you that gratitude and focus are the oxygen that keep your spirit alive. And finally, Iron Cowboy James Lawrence opens up about what happens after you achieve the impossible. From completing 100 Ironmans in 100 days to facing the emotional crash that followed, James reveals the truth about purpose, pain, and the power of “one more.” His story is proof that even when you’ve hit your limit, you’ve still got one more step, one more rep, one more moment of greatness left inside you. These stories are going to shake something loose in you. Because the truth is, your dream isn’t waiting for more time—it’s waiting for more focus.
