Outstanding Standards and the Cost of Playing Small ft. Brock Painter | The Alchemy Podcast #38

In this episode of The Alchemy Podcast, host Doug Cartwright welcomes Brock Painter, founder of NeuroMastery, for a vulnerable and powerful conversation on emotional resilience, personal transformation, and what it takes to go beyond surface-level self-help. Brock shares how multiple concussions ended his football dreams in high school and led to a long journey of healing, growth, and eventually the creation of his own program, NeuroMastery. Together, Doug and Brock explore the difference between fear and faith, ego and intuition, and how physical challenges like 100-mile ultramarathons can forge the kind of self-worth that no external success can buy.

They discuss the moment Brock burned the boats and entered his first 100-mile race with just $500 in the bank, the standards that define high-performing communities, and how men can begin to transmute their pain into purpose. Whether you're an entrepreneur, father, athlete, or someone quietly feeling stuck in the monotony of life, this episode is a deep, expansive reminder that the greatest transformations happen from the inside out.
