  • ATG 304 | Replay Your Wins
    19 Oct 2026

    You've already won before, so why aren't you using that success? In this episode, I'm sharing a soundtrack I've been teaching for years: win the way you've won before. I'll walk you through a real moment from a podcast interview where a host had presented at Oxford twice but still felt intimidated by writing a book, and how I helped him see he'd already done something harder. You'll learn why your brain remembers failures but forgets victories thanks to negativity bias, and why people trying to lose weight often ignore the exact tools that helped them get out of debt or finish nursing school. I'll also share how pastors who struggle to write books already have the process inside them, they just need to translate their sermon writing skills forward. Your homework today: think of a time you won, make a list of what made it possible, and bring those same tools to your next goal. Plus, I'm talking about my new book, Three Minute Mindset, out in early November, and how you can get the audiobook free when you preorder.

  • ATG 303 | New Seasons, New Scorecards
    12 Oct 2026

    Have you ever felt like you're failing at something you used to be great at? You might be judging yourself with an old scorecard. In this episode, I'm breaking down a soundtrack that came from coaching people in my Remarkable You Community, especially a real estate agent who couldn't figure out why he was struggling until he realized he was now caring for his dad who has early onset dementia. He was judging his current performance against a version of himself from a completely different season of life. I'll share how this shows up in my own life with the busiest speaking year of my career, why my daughter's short season in high school band changed how I said yes and no to things, and how you can create a simple scorecard to measure progress in whatever new season you're in right now. Plus, I'll tell you about my brand new book, The Three Minute Mindset, and how you can get the audiobook free when you preorder.

  • ATG 302 | Awesome Isn’t Accidental
    5 Oct 2026

    You've never met someone who accidentally got in shape, accidentally achieved financial freedom, or accidentally built an awesome marriage. In this episode, kicking off a new series based on my upcoming book, The Three Minute Mindset, I'm sharing one of my most powerful soundtracks: awesome is never accidental. Whether it's your health, your finances, your marriage, or your career, everything you care about that becomes awesome takes intentionality. I'll share why the danger isn't trying nothing, it's trying to go from nothing to everything overnight. Plus, I'll walk you through the one question you need to ask yourself today and give you a simple action to take this week that will start building the awesome life you actually want.
