You’re not broken because your last few jobs haven’t worked. You’re not flaky because you’re already thinking about leaving… again.

You don’t need a 5am routine. You need a rhythm that actually fits you. If you’re someone who craves structure but instantly rebels the moment you try to create it, you’re not broken. You’re not undisciplined. You’re not “bad at routines.” You’re a human with a nervous system...

What if it were just two humans trying to see if they’d actually enjoy working together? In this episode, I share the...

You’re on a call with a big exec. You’re trying to sound confident. And then it hits that little voice that says, “They can see through me.” Your heart starts pounding. You talk too fast. You start filling the silence. It feels horrible. Here’s the secret: everyone feels...

We spend our whole lives trying to outthink emotions. We outwork them. Outrun them. Numb them with busyness and “productivity.” But the truth is, it’s not your calendar, your system, or your discipline that’s holding you back. It’s the one thing you refuse to feel. Fear....

Would you use a busted laptop in your biggest client meeting?
Would you run a marathon in shoes full of holes?
Of course not.
So why are you pushing through your highest-stakes work with a depleted nervous system and zero energy?
In this episode, I introduce you to my signature Protect the Asset principle — the performance strategy no one’s talking about. This isn’t bubble baths or massages (though we love those too). It’s about building your success around your actual peak energy window, so you perform at your best without burning out.
In this episode, I riff on:
↠ Why burnout benefits no one, not even your company
↠ The Peak Window Protocol and how to identify your optimal productivity zone
↠ Why performance isn’t about 12-hour days, it’s about protecting your nervous system
↠ Real client stories that prove working less can actually lead to more results
↠ How to stop glorifying grind and start treating yourself like the most mission-critical part of your work
↠ Why your “meat suit” needs water, rest, white space—and a little grace
This episode is a wake-up call to start honoring your energy, optimizing your workflow, and finally allowing yourself to perform like the elite asset you are.
