This week's episode of the show is SPECIAL. We're digging into the topic behind my brand new book, The Standard, which releases August 1st, 2023.Over the last 18+ years of coaching some of the highest performers in the world in sports and business, I'd like to think I know a thing or two about what a high Standard looks like. After taking a walk with my mentor Jon Gordon last year, it hit me... I had to write this book and identify what it looks like for someone to live to Standard in THEIR life. In this episode I cover some very important topics that made it into the book, but also shamelessly telling YOU that it is one you don't want to overlook.
