Your goals aren’t failing, your identity is!

In this episode I expose the hidden gap between who you say you are and how you actually operate. You’ll learn how identity blind spots shape your self-talk, your habits, your decisions, and your results, and why behaviour change fails until identity change happens first.

I'll give you a sharp, practical system to realign identity, belief, and behaviour into one coherent force so you can finally become the person your goals require.

Key Takeaways

 • Why goals fail when identity doesn’t support them.
 • The 5-step identity realignment framework.
 • How to uncover identity defaults driving self-sabotage.

150 - 15 MINUTE MONDAYS!! CONGRATS TRIBE :-)

MOMENTO MORI! Would this still matter in 2125?
If not - ship it or scrap it.

In this episode I introduce one of the most powerful mental models for life, leadership, and business: The 100-Year Filter - a tool that strips away ego, urgency, and emotional noise so you can make decisions with clarity instead of reactivity.

I unpack why most people drown in short-term thinking, how temporal blindness fuels stress, and why leaders who think in centuries build trust, reputation, and alignment far faster than those who think in minutes.

You’ll learn an expanded 5-step framework that helps you audit your week, elevate your decisions, protect your integrity, and eliminate the tasks and tensions that don’t deserve your bandwidth. Whether you're a leader, creator, business owner, or someone rebuilding life on your own terms, this episode offers a long-term lens that changes everything.

✨ Key Takeaways

 • How the 100-Year Filter eliminates emotional reactivity and short-term noise.
 • Why most burnout isn’t workload - it’s temporal blindness.
 • A 5-step framework to assess decisions through a century-level lens.
 • How to build decisions that age well - not decisions that soothe the moment.
 • Advanced long-term thinking strategies used by founders and elite leaders.
 • How to protect your integrity horizon and avoid micro-compromises that damage your future.

15 Minute Mondays - The 100 Year Filter: Think Beyond the Noise, Choose With Precision, and Lead Like Time Is Watching

Burnout isn’t too much work, it’s too little payoff per unit of effort.

In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I challenge the outdated belief that burnout is fixed by rest alone. The real problem isn’t your workload, it’s the structure behind it. You’ll learn how to redesign your day around energy cycles instead of clock time, using neuroscience-backed strategies that help you perform better, recover faster, and feel fulfilled again.

I break down the 3R Loop: Reduce, Reassign, Remove, to help you eliminate friction and focus on high-value work. You’ll also discover how to build a visible Win Ledger to reconnect your brain to progress and prevent emotional depletion before it starts.

This isn’t about doing less. It’s about designing smarter, so your energy fuels growth instead of survival.

Key Takeaways

 • Why burnout stems from misaligned effort, not overwork.
 • How to map and use your natural energy cycles for peak output.
 • The 3R Loop to declutter work that drains your focus.
 • How to use a Visible Win Ledger to create proof of progress and motivation.
 • Advanced tools to align effort with meaning and protect long-term performance.

Whether you’re leading a team, resolving conflict, or confronting emotional tension, this episode will teach you how to master the art of candid empathy, honesty with humanity.

Winners don’t quit because it’s easy, they quit because it’s intelligent.
In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I dismantle one of the most dangerous cultural myths: that persistence always equals success. The truth? Sometimes grit keeps you stuck.

You’ll learn how to distinguish between healthy perseverance and self-sabotage, when to walk away from goals that no longer serve your growth, and how to reinvest your freed bandwidth into something that compounds instead of consumes. This isn’t about giving up, it’s about upgrading direction.

I will share a proven 5-step framework, the Truth, Traction, and Time Test.

Key Takeaways

 • Why quitting intelligently can accelerate success faster than blind persistence.
 • The 5-step framework: Truth, Traction, and Time Tests + Soft Landing + Bandwidth Reinvestment.
 • How to design an exit that protects credibility and relationships.
 • Why letting go is often the prerequisite for innovation and growth.

Designing Your Default Future: How Habits Decide Who You Become

Your habits are writing next year’s biography. In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I dismantle the myth that the future is built by big goals or sudden breakthroughs. The truth is simpler, your daily habits are silently deciding who you become. Every repeated behaviour, tolerated routine, and unchallenged excuse is forming your default future.

This episode reveals how to move from drift to design. You’ll learn how to reprogram identity, install forcing functions that make success automatic, and apply a quarterly “recode” ritual to prevent autopilot living. Because when you stop outsourcing your future to yesterday’s habits, you stop living reactively, and start living deliberately.

Key Takeaways

 • Why your 
default future • forms through routine, not intention.
 • The 5-step framework to move from drift to design.
 • How to use forcing functions to automate high-value behaviors.
 • The power of quarterly recoding to reset identity and momentum.
 • How to align daily choices with the person you’re becoming, not the person you’ve been.

15 Minute Mondays - Designing Your Default Future: How Habits Decide Who You Become

If You're a FAN leave me a message :-)

Life isn’t meant to be smooth sailing. It’s an emotional landscape filled with peaks, valleys, and everything in between. In this episode of 15 Minute Monday, I explore why the path to a truly good life isn’t found in chasing constant happiness but in embracing every emotion, the joy, the pain, the uncertainty, and the growth that follows.

We dive deep into the concept of Emodiversity, the science of emotional richness, and how allowing yourself to feel the full spectrum of emotions creates balance, resilience, and deeper fulfilment. Real well-being is not about avoiding hard feelings; it’s about learning from them and allowing them to shape you into someone wiser and stronger.

Key Takeaways:

 • Embrace emotional complexity by allowing yourself to experience the full range of human emotions, not only the pleasant ones.
 • Debunk the myth of constant happiness by recognizing that true fulfilment comes from emotional diversity and authenticity.
 • Build resilience through adversity by viewing hard emotions as training grounds for strength, adaptability, and wisdom.
 • Find meaning in the struggle by uncovering the lessons that challenges carry when you reflect instead of resist.
 • Prioritize emotional well-being through rest, self-care, connection, and intentional reflection.
 • Connect to a greater purpose by seeking meaning through service, creativity, and spiritual grounding that adds depth to life.
 • Practice self-compassion by treating yourself with kindness when things feel heavy and embracing vulnerability as strength.
 • Embrace impermanence by understanding that every emotion is temporary and gratitude for the moment creates lasting peace.

This episode will challenge how you think about happiness and emotional health. The good life is not about escaping the lows. It is about meeting them with courage, learning from them, and discovering who you become along the way.

15 Minute Mondays - Good Life, Tough Feelings Accepting the Ups and Downs

If You're a FAN leave me a message :-)

You’re not calm, you’re disconnected.

In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I challenge one of the biggest misconceptions in modern life and leadership: that composure equals control. Many professionals mistake emotional shutdown for emotional mastery, wearing numbness like armour and calling it strength.

But here’s the truth, the armour that protects you also isolates you. This episode reveals how to recognize emotional armour, why it quietly kills creativity, empathy, and connection, and how to rebuild genuine emotional presence as the foundation of leadership, resilience, and power.

✨ Key Takeaways

 • Why emotional regulation is not the same as emotional suppression.
 • The 5-step framework for removing emotional armour and rebuilding authentic presence.
 • How to feel deeply without losing control, the art of anchored composure.
 • Advanced strategies like the Somatic Check-In Protocol and Emotional Differentiation Drill.
 • Why emotional connection, not numbness, is the ultimate leadership advantage.

15 Minute Mondays - Emotional Armour: Why We Mistake Numbness for Strength

If You're a FAN leave me a message :-)

Most leaders drown in data and still hesitate. They miss subtle cues, stall while waiting for certainty, or dismiss their gut as “unreliable.” But here’s the disruptive truth: intuition is not guesswork, it’s a skill. When trained and tested, it becomes your fastest, sharpest strategic advantage.

In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I reveal how to cultivate intuition systematically, so you can read hidden patterns, balance instinct with evidence, and make sharper, more confident decisions when it matters most.

✨ Key Takeaways

 • Why intuition, when disciplined, outperforms over-analysis.
 • The 5-step framework for building and testing intuitive decision-making.
 • How to spot subtle signals - tone, micro-cues, dissonance, that others ignore.
 • Advanced strategies like Thin-Slice Drills, Noise Audits, and the Two-Clock Protocol.
 • Real-world examples of intuition saving opportunities, and the cost of ignoring it.

If You're a FAN leave me a message :-)

In this episode of 15 Minute Mondays, I expose the empathy double standard and show why reciprocity is the missing ingredient in healthy, high-performing organizations. If empathy only flows downward, it isn’t empathy, it’s exploitation.

✨ Key Takeaways

 • Why one-sided empathy drains leaders and erodes trust.
 • The 5-step framework to build 
reciprocal empathy • in teams and organizations.
 • How transparency about leadership burdens creates deeper understanding.
 • Advanced strategies like Empathy Economics, Pre-Mortem Empathy, and neuroscience-backed trust building.
