The Edge of Possible with Cameron Atlas

If you've been feeling scattered, wired, or worn down lately, you're not alone. Every app, alert and algorithm is competing for your attention, and most of us are giving it away without even realizing it.

In this week's mashup episode, I've brought together the best moments from three conversations with Antonio Forenza, Dayamudra Dennehy and Amir Bozorgzade.

So often, our second act turns out to be the best part of the story. But getting there usually means walking through a stretch of uncertainty that nobody warns you about.

In this mashup episode, I bring together three powerful conversations about reinvention. 

Jim Fielding shares how a career at the top of Disney, DreamWorks, Fox, and Gap, a divorce, and a global pandemic collided to bring him to rock bottom, and how he rebuilt himself into the most authentic version of who he is.

Terry Esau tells the story of quitting a job that was draining him and talking his way into a jingle writing business with nothing but a cheap sport coat and a rusted out Chevy.

And Mark Setch explains how he moved from accounting to 19 years as a pastor and then to coaching, by discovering the purpose that ties every role together.

If you're feeling the pull toward something new, this episode will help you trust that the uncomfortable space in between is exactly where the next version of you is being built.

Every one of us will face a moment where the ground shifts beneath our feet. A career ends unexpectedly. A partnership falls apart. Someone we love is suddenly gone.

In those moments, it can feel like life is ending. But what if those disruptions are actually an invitation to become someone new?

In this mashup episode, I've brought together three of the most powerful conversations from the show.

Achieving your next level of performance and leadership is never an accident. It is a direct result of the standards you set, the internal accountability you cultivate, and the habits you consistently reinforce when nobody else is watching.

When life gets busy and the pressure builds, it’s easy to treat fun as an afterthought or a luxury we’ll get to once everything else is finished.

What holds us back from achieving our highest potential? For former CEO of 7-Eleven and Blockbuster, Jim Keyes, the answer is simple: fear and self-doubt.
