In this episode, I bring you behind the scenes of a keynote I gave to the U.S. National Taekwondo Team—lessons not just for athletes, but for anyone chasing greatness. I reflect on the power of incremental growth, the urgency of embracing finality, and how high performers tap into both their “why” and “who” to fuel their mission. Whether you're building a business, training for a goal, or navigating a season of change, this episode is packed with real, emotional, and actionable insights. The journey to transformation starts here—and it starts with LFG energy.
