    In this episode, we break down the 3 patterns that separate leaders who sustain results from those who keep starting over.

    You'll learn:
    ✅ Why your health struggles aren't a discipline problem, but a self-leadership gap
    ✅ Why goals don't stick for high performers
    ✅ How focusing only on results or "winging it" keeps you stuck
    ✅ What leaders who thrive long-term do differently

    This episode will hekp you create a clear blueprint for an extraordinary year of health, energy, and growth... without burnout.

    Tune in and learn how to lead yourself first so you can finally make results stick.

    Highlights

    • The 3 hidden patterns that cause high-performing leaders to burn out or keep starting over with their health goals.

    • Why discipline and consistency aren't the real problem—and how self-leadership is the missing skill.

    • The difference between outcome-focused, process-focused, and identity-based change (and why identity is the key to results that stick).

    • How "winging it" creates decision fatigue—and why leaders who sustain results rely on structure and systems instead of motivation.

    • How to build a clear, identity-driven blueprint for an extraordinary year of health, energy, and growth without burnout.
