    Jan 12 2026

    Burnout is one of the biggest silent killers of performance in sales — and most people completely misunderstand where it comes from.

    In this episode, Nick Nascimento breaks down the real psychology behind sales burnout and why it’s not caused by working too hard, long hours, or repetitive tasks. In fact, some of the highest-performing entrepreneurs and salespeople work more than anyone else — yet never burn out.

    So what’s the difference?

    Nick walks through:
    -Why burnout happens (and why most people get it wrong)
    -The psychological root of burnout
    -The 7 biggest causes of burnout in sales
    -How misalignment, lack of purpose, and environment drain performance
    -Why chasing the prize instead of the process leads to exhaustion
    -The difference between transactional vs transformational mindset
    -How identity conflict fuels burnout
    -Why progress and growth are non-negotiable for motivation
    -Most importantly, Nick shares 5 critical mindset shifts that will help you:
    -Overcome burnout
    -Prevent burnout long-term
    -Build discipline without relying on motivation
    -Shift from reactive to proactive living
    -Reconnect with purpose, growth, and identity
    -Create systems that sustain results over time

    This episode is for:
    -Salespeople feeling stuck, drained, or unmotivated
    -High performers who feel busy but unfulfilled
    -Entrepreneurs chasing results but losing purpose
    -Anyone who wants long-term success without burnout

    If you’ve ever felt tired, bored, unfulfilled, or disconnected from your work — this episode will change the way you think about burnout forever.

  • How To Set Goals & Guarantee Success | Ep 49
    Dec 23 2025

    Most people don’t struggle with setting big goals — they struggle with having a process to actually achieve them.

    In this episode, Nick breaks down the exact systems, mindsets, and frameworks he’s used to crush massive goals in sales, income, health, leadership, and life. From building multi-million-dollar businesses to creating consistent results without burnout, this episode walks you through a step-by-step blueprint for turning big targets into daily execution.

    You’ll learn:

    • The difference between targets vs. tasks (and why being busy doesn’t mean being productive)
    • How to reverse-engineer big goals into micro actions and systems
    • Why process over prize creates consistent success
    • How to use time blocking, KPIs, and prioritization to win
    • The power of environment, mentorship, and accountability
    • Why who you’re becoming matters more than the goal itself

    If you’re serious about leveling up your sales, income, discipline, and overall life structure — this episode gives you a clear framework you can implement immediately.

    Stay until the end — the final section ties everything together.

  • Blitz Queen: How Melissa Romiza Runs Elite Solar Sprints | Ep 48
    Dec 10 2025

    What separates a chaotic blitz from a dialed, high-profit machine?

    In this episode, Nick sits down with Melissa Romiza, known across the solar industry as the “Blitz Queen.” Melissa has led teams doing over 2,100 kW in a two-week blitz, with tight systems, clear standards, and culture strong enough to keep both performance and retention high.

    Melissa breaks down her entire blitz playbook step by step: how she chooses markets, caps headcount, and enforces a hard two-week cutoff for recruiting so onboarding and training are actually done before reps land. She shares how she structures housing, food, bootcamps, KPIs, and leadership pods so everyone knows exactly what “winning” looks like each day.

    They also dig into the uncomfortable stuff most leaders avoid: sending people home, holding the line on standards, getting real feedback from reps, and why competition, experiences, and genuine community matter more than another cash bonus. If you run teams, blitzes, or any kind of high-intensity push, this conversation will show you what a real operational standard looks like.
