In this episode of Relatable Wisdom, I sit down with Rob Tracz, a performance coach and host of Surviving the Side Hustle, to explore how intentional reflection and active learning can transform the way we work and grow . Rob opens by sharing his favorite quote—“You’re not an expert until somebody invites you into their life as one”—and explains how that insight shaped his journey from grinding 17-hour days to focusing on meaningful progress .
