In this episode, I break down the Strike Zero Program—a simple and brutally effective way to get better at pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, squats, or any bodyweight exercise. This is the exact program that took me from struggling to do a single pull-up to being able to rep out 20+ strict reps consistently. It’s customizable, time-efficient, and built for busy entrepreneurs, parents, or anyone trying to stay fit while building a better life.

💡 Key Takeaways:

• The Strike Zero Program uses maximum effort sets until you “strike” through all reps down to zero.
• It tailors itself to your fitness level by bringing you to failure every set.
• Rest periods are short (about 60 seconds), making workouts efficient and effective.
• You can do it three times per week with a lower body move, upper body push, and upper body pull—or just pick one exercise when short on time.
• Momentum > perfection—one session, even short, builds consistency and results.

📌 Example Workout:

• Air Squats: 200 reps total
• Push-Ups: 100 reps total
• Pull-Ups: 50 reps total
• Do max reps → subtract from total → rest 60 sec → move to next exercise → repeat until you hit zero.

Does mindfulness really make you a better leader? A new study with nearly 20,000 participants says yes—leaders who practice mindfulness show stronger transformational and ethical leadership, healthier teams, and better performance. In this short episode, I’ll break down the research and give you three practical ways to build mindfulness into your leadership style.

💡 Key Takeaways:

• Mindfulness improves leadership styles (transformational, authentic, ethical).
• Teams led by mindful leaders have stronger relationships, higher well-being, and better performance.
• Mindfulness = sustained present attention + an open, curious, non-defensive stance.

🧭 Practical Applications:

• Notice before reacting: Pause before you respond to your team.
• Listen without planning a reply: Stay fully present in conversations.
• Pay attention: Put away distractions and give people your focus.

📌 Tools for Mindfulness:

• Breathwork practices (box breathing, WIM HOF, etc.)
• Meditation (5–20 minutes daily)
• Simple awareness: noticing thoughts and letting them pass

⏱️ Chapters:

• 00:00 Does mindfulness make you a better leader?
• 00:40 What the study revealed (20,000 participants)
• 01:30 Defining mindfulness in leadership
• 02:20 Three ways to practice mindful leadership

In this episode, I break down why the boring habits you keep skipping are the very things that extend your life, grow your business, and keep you consistent. The trick? Simple reframes on your calendar that connect daily actions to your long-term goals. I’ll show you how to relabel tasks so they actually stick, and why attaching meaning (and a star rating) changes everything.

💡 Reframing Habits:

• Instead of “Workout” → call it Life Extension Modality (5⭐)
• Instead of “Sleep” → call it 24-Hour Recovery Cycle
• Instead of “Meal Prep” → call it Cellular Construction Project
• Instead of “Family Dinner” → call it Generational Alignment Hour

🧭 Why It Works:

• Each label connects the task to your future self—not just today.
• Adding a star rating (1-5) shows how aligned it is with your goals.
• You’ll stop skipping tasks when you realize what you’re really skipping.

📌 Real Talk:

• Success isn’t complicated—it’s boring. Eat well, train, read, repeat.
• Consistency beats excitement. The monotony is the point.
• Reframing habits helps you and your team understand the why.

⏱️ Chapters:

• 00:00 Why boring habits matter
• 01:20 The entrepreneur struggling with consistency
• 02:40 Reframing workouts as “Life Extension Modality”
• 04:10 Using star ratings for alignment
• 05:40 More reframes for sleep, food, family time
• 07:20 The monotony that actually builds mastery
• 08:30 Final takeaway: stick to the boring stuff
