This conversation dives deep into themes of resilience, redefining success, and doing the inner work required to build a better life — for yourself and the people you love.

Whether you're chasing growth, stability, or meaning, this one’s for you.

What happens when you actually follow The 5AM Club — and go all in?

In this solo episode of Intern to Expert, I walk you through two morning routines that changed my life in completely different ways:

⚡ Routine 1: Calm, simple, and sustainable.

• Wake at 5AM

• Light dumbbell workout + audiobook

• Journaling, cold shower, hot meal

• Total peace and freedom after work

🔥 Routine 2: Intense and high-performance.

• Wake at 4:30AM

• Ice bath, run, stretch, lift

• Less frequent lifting, more recovery

• With an accountability partner pushing me forward

Both routines were inspired by The 5AM Club by Robin Sharma — especially his “20/20/20 Formula” and the mindset of mastering your mornings to transform your life.

🎯 What worked? What didn’t?
💪 Which routine built more strength?
🧠 Which one protected my peace?

This episode is a must-listen if you’re tired of influencer routines that don’t match your life — and want a real look at what happens when you actually try building discipline before the sun comes up.

Welcome to the first edition of the Intern to Expert Book Club. In this solo episode, I’m diving into three books that seriously shifted how I think, grow, and connect:

• Who Moved My Cheese? by Spencer Johnson — a deceptively simple story about how we handle change.

• Supercommunicators by Charles Duhigg — a science-backed guide to better conversations and deeper human connection.

• Hidden Potential by Adam Grant — a fresh take on what really drives personal growth (hint: it’s not talent).

Along the way, I’ll share my personal takeaways, some lessons I had to learn the hard way, and how these books continue to shape my mindset and habits.

Whether you’re an avid reader or just looking for a spark to level up, this episode is packed with insights you can use.
