In today’s episode, James Maslow and I sit down with Olympic gold medalist LaShawn Merritt to talk about the mindset and resilience that took him to the top of his sport. LaShawn shares how he navigated the transition from elite competition, the struggle of finding new purpose, and the lessons that still drive him today. We break down the power of JOMO—the joy of missing out—shifting focus from short-term temptations to long-term success. James reflects on his own career evolution, the value of surrounding yourself with the right people, and how embracing change has fueled his growth in entertainment and business.

In today’s episode, I share strategies to increase sales success and improve leadership effectiveness. We explore the importance of credibility, emotional connection, and confident communication when raising capital or pitching ideas. I break down my "3 no rule," a proven method to save time and create urgency by allowing people to say no. I also discuss how to avoid objections entirely by focusing on open-ended questions that uncover value and align solutions with others’ needs. Additionally, I touch on reframing emotional expenses in business leadership and using simple language to drive better results. These insights are designed to empower you to achieve greater success in sales and leadership.

In today’s episode, I break down the power of purpose, persistence, and perspective in shaping the spaces we occupy. The energy we bring to our work, relationships, and daily activities determines our success, and learning to love what others resist unlocks opportunities most people miss. True persistence isn’t just about never quitting—it’s about continuous progress, adapting to challenges, and shifting perspectives to align with greater possibilities. By surrounding ourselves with the right environments and people, we amplify our awareness and elevate our results. Success isn’t about chasing happiness—it’s about finding fulfillment in the pursuit itself, trusting the process, and creating alignment between who we are and where we want to be or better.

In today’s episode, I explore how to align your past, present, and future to achieve lasting freedom and wealth. I break down the importance of shifting the meaning you assign to past experiences and how this impacts your self-image and direction. I also share why non-negotiable habits, like prioritizing sleep and health, lay the foundation for success, and how negotiable actions can enhance progress when approached intentionally. By focusing on what you want, who can help you, and how to structure your time, you can reduce resistance and unlock your potential, all while building a community that supports and amplifies your vision for long-term success.

In today’s episode, I break down the power of relationships and how the people around us shape our success, energy, and perspective. Every team in life—family, business, faith, or finance—requires the right alignment to move forward without resistance. I share how to recognize those who support growth versus those who interfere, whether they are obvious detractors or well-meaning loved ones operating from fear. By understanding relativity, association, and the balance of giving and receiving in relationships, it becomes easier to build a network that fuels success. Identifying and removing limiting influences is key to creating an environment that fosters purpose, fulfillment, and progress.

The ideas we surround ourselves with shape every aspect of our lives. In this episode, I explored how what we think, say, do believe, and feel influence our energy, decisions, and overall success. By being intentional with the information we take in and the words we speak, we can elevate our frequency, attract better opportunities, and create meaningful connections. This episode reminds us that our mindset is our greatest asset and what we think, say, and see directly impacts our ability to grow and thrive.
