In this first episode of Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Caroline to explain why the podcast has evolved from Lead On Purpose and what this new chapter is really about. We talk habits over hustle, consistency over intensity, and why real performance is built quietly over time.
What we cover:
- Why the podcast was rebranded and what listeners can expect from this new season
- The habits that actually drive health, energy, and long term performance
- Installing habits versus breaking them, and why stopping behaviours often matters more
- How simple systems, triggers, and rewards make habits stick
- Why ease, simplicity, and patience outperform grind and pressure
If you want to perform better without burning out, and build habits that actually last, this episode sets the tone for everything to come.
