Listen Later

What if the key to personal growth is learning to embrace stress and break free from people pleasing?


In this special solo episode, I celebrate my 46th birthday by sharing reflections on the most profound lessons I have learned over the past year. I will take you through my personal growth journey, sharing with you the pivotal moments that shaped my understanding of self-worth, stress management, and building meaningful relationships. 


In this episode of The Greatness Machine, I will dive into the importance of embracing stress to test personal growth and explore how starting a new business brought unexpected challenges. I will also share my struggle with anxiety and my realization about the pitfalls of people pleasing. Join me as I discuss the tools that have helped me build the muscle of awareness and the power of confronting conflicts early for healthier relationships.


Topics include:

  • Understanding your own worth and finding a healthier approach to stress and anxiety
  • Darius shares two challenges he faced during the launch of his new business
  • The importance of building the muscle of awareness
  • Darius talks about his No People Pleasing (No PP) mantra
  • The value of embracing conflict earlier to ensure healthier relationships
  • And other topics…
