  • #82: Building A Team of Winners with John & Nineveh Madsen
    Jul 11 2025

    Scaling to $50M+ in revenue wasn’t luck—it was culture, execution, and hiring the right people. In this episode of The Supra Human Show, John and Nineveh Madsen sit down with Ben Olliver and Dr. Taylor Waters to reveal how they built one of the most elite fitness coaching teams in the world—from just 3 employees to over 90.

    They unpack what actually makes someone a winner (hint: it’s not potential), why they hire for attitude over résumé, and how culture is protected—not just built. You’ll learn how they identify A-players fast, manage ambition across roles, and lead with both vision and structure—without losing their edge or their people.

    Whether you're a founder scaling fast, a leader hiring your first team, or just someone obsessed with peak performance, this episode will change how you think about business, culture, and what it really takes to win.

  • #80: Optimizing Motivation
    Jun 27 2025

    Why do some people stay consistent for years, while others burn out in weeks? It’s not willpower. It’s not hype. And it’s definitely not discipline in the way you think.

    In this episode of The Supra Human Show, Ryan Stevens, Dr. Taylor Waters, and Ben Olliver dismantle the myths of motivation. Together they show how true consistency comes from designing your environment, aligning your identity, and understanding the hidden motives that actually drive action. You’ll learn the concept of the “motivation threshold,” the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic drivers, and why discipline is just motivation in disguise.

    This episode is built for anyone committed to long-term transformation. Whether you're chasing fat loss, peak performance, or simply trying to stop quitting on yourself, this episode gives you the tools to win for the long haul.
