What does transformation actually look like when nothing “breaks,” but something still needs to change?

In this episode, Austin Cohen shares the quiet, uncomfortable evolution from control to connection. He opens up about the early years of building his business, when everything ran through him, listening to phone calls, managing payroll hour by hour, and unintentionally limiting the growth of the people around him.

Through honest stories and reflection, Austin explores how an unhealthy version of high achievement and Enneagram 3 tendencies can shrink your world without you realizing it. He talks about the shift from being needed to building systems, from working nonstop to becoming intentional with time, and from chasing approval to choosing alignment.

Most importantly, Austin dives into what became his greatest asset: relationships. Rebuilding his circle, becoming selective with where his energy goes, and discovering that time with the right people compounds faster than any metric or milestone.

This conversation is for founders, leaders, and high performers who feel successful on paper but sense there’s another level of fulfillment waiting, if they’re willing to step out of their own way.
