In EP93, Mike sits down with Joshua to break down “The New Normal” why most people don’t need more tactics… they need more connection. If you’ve felt disconnected from yourself, your purpose, or your people, this conversation will reset how you approach sales, leadership, and personal brand.

What you’ll get from this episode:

Why “connection” is the new unfair advantage (in sales and life)
How scarcity thinking keeps people stuck (and the “goodwill bank” flip)
The difference between building a brand vs. becoming a clearer version of you
A simple reset framework: pause → eat → sleep → reframe
How community, values, and relationships create momentum that tactics can’t
