    JON GORDON: The Real-World Power of Positive Leadership

    In this episode of The Double Win Show, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller talk with Jon Gordon, bestselling author of The Energy Bus and The Power of Positive Leadership. Jon shares his journey from negativity to a thriving, positive life and the principles he’s developed to help teams and individuals succeed. From practical strategies for fueling positive energy to addressing the root causes of negativity, Jon’s wisdom is a must-hear for leaders striving to win at work and succeed at home. Memorable Quotes “Every one of us is going to have to overcome negativity, adversity, and challenges to ultimately define ourselves and our team's success. And the main message is: You have to overcome negativity with positivity.”“You’re the driver. You decide the kind of ride it’s going to be… It’s all about ownership.”“You write down your success of the day and every night you go to bed a success. Every morning you wake up a success. You’re now creating more and more success because what you focus on starts to show up more in your life.”“The root for the Greek word ‘anxious’ means to separate and divide. And so someone who’s anxious, they feel separate and divided. What does fear do? Divides.”“The change happened when I started to take walks of gratitude every day because I read you can’t be stressed and thankful at the same time.”“You’re not the thoughts you think—you’re the thoughts you believe. Negative thoughts are going to come in all the time. What thoughts are you believing and what stories are you choosing to believe about yourself?”“There’s a feeling that you’re winning [at work and at home] and yet at the same time, you’re probably always going to feel like. ‘What can I do better? And how can I do this more in both places?’ I call it positive discontent.”Key Takeaways You’re the Driver: Own your energy and your impact. Leaders set the tone for their teams and must model positivity.Fuel Your Energy Daily: Practices like gratitude walks, journaling, and prayer can help leaders stay energized and engaged.Address Negativity Head-On: Successful leaders confront issues directly, fostering accountability and growth without demeaning their teams.Build Positive Team Cultures: Principles like “No Complaining Without a Solution” and “Love + Accountability” transform how teams function.Resources The Energy Bus by Jon GordonThe Power of Positive Leadership by Jon GordonThe Success Journal by Jon GordonLearn more about Jon Gordon’s work at jongordon.com Watch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/pr_itESG_GA Podcast:  This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

    CAREY NIEUWHOF: The Essential Art of Self-Leadership

    In this episode of The Double Win Show, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller sit down with leadership expert Carey Nieuwhof to explore the hidden traps of burnout, cynicism, and the tolls of unexamined motivations. Carey dives into his journey from lawyer to pastor to leadership coach, sharing how he’s learned to manage energy and avoid burnout while building an impactful career. Carey’s insights touch on the importance of self-leadership, the dangers of “mid-grade burnout,” and strategies for setting lasting boundaries. The conversation is rich with practical advice for leaders in any field who want to achieve the Double Win—winning at work and succeeding at life. Memorable Quotes “I think unexamined motivations drive you until they destroy you.”“Self-leadership is the ability to heal ourselves, to stay engaged, to stay healthy—everything from avoiding burnout and not becoming the person everyone resents to staying engaged at a meaningful level and avoiding cynicism and pride.”“Just look at the internal battle of a leader, how lonely it is, how you often feel you don’t have anyone to turn to about the personal demons you’re fighting.”“I worked with a lot of lawyers who were really at the top of their game. It was sort of the Wall Street of Canada, right? I realized very early on: Oh, it’s empty up here.”“I think you’ve got to make a decision: I’m going to trust again. I’m going to hope again. I’m going to believe again.”“Cynical people are never curious and curious people are never cynical. They seem to be mutually exclusive.”“That position of feeling numb most days is a big warning sign.”“We’re inundated with too many relationships and we’re overwhelmed, overworked, overcommitted.”“If you’re winning at work and losing at home, you’re losing.”Key Takeaways Self-Leadership Matters: Carey explains that leading yourself well is the foundation of effective leadership.The Dangers of Mid-Grade Burnout: While many recognize full-blown burnout, Carey highlights the subtler, persistent signs that show up as disengagement or apathy.Prioritize Close Relationships: Carey describes the power of “3–5 deep friendships” that keep us grounded and resilient.The Antidote to Cynicism: When cynicism creeps in, choosing curiosity can help leaders reconnect and stay energized.Boundaries with Purpose: Categorical decisions (like “no breakfast meetings”) can help protect your peak hours and ensure work doesn’t consume your personal life.Resources Didn’t See It Coming by Carey NieuwhofThe Carey Nieuwhof Leadership PodcastWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/lK5NYaZGm3w This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

I’ve got one shot at this thing. And so I want to make sure that a lived it well and I was satisfied with what I did.”“If we are great entrepreneurs, if we’re great speakers, if we’re great authors, if we’re heart fill-in-the-blank, but we drop the ball as husbands, wives, moms, dads—if we’re a shell of a human being, we’re doing it wrong.”Key Takeaways Intentional Life Design: Your life doesn’t have to follow a set path—design it to fit your values and goals.

    MASTIN KIPP: Living Less Stressed

    In this episode of The Double Win Show, Michael and Megan Hyatt Miller sit down with bestselling author and trauma-informed coach, Mastin Kipp, to discuss the profound impact of understanding and regulating the nervous system. Mastin shares insights from his new book, Reclaim Your Nervous System, and explains how unresolved trauma and dysregulation can hinder personal and professional growth. The conversation explores the practical applications of polyvagal theory, co-regulation, and how leaders can foster psychological safety by mastering their own nervous systems. Mastin covers everything from the body's hierarchy of responses to stress (green, yellow, and red states), to the effects of trauma on leadership, parenting, and personal well-being. By learning how to identify and manage these states, listeners can unlock a new level of performance and healing. Memorable Quotes “We have this idea that ‘If I can change my thoughts, I can change my life,’ which is accurate, but there’s a lot going on below the brain that we also want to understand.”“The issue is when we have a neuroceptive mismatch, where I’m in the presence of something dangerous, but I’m not being activated to move. Or I’m not in the presence of danger, but my neuroception is telling me that I am.”“I think of re-regulation as like the bicep curl or the squat. You’re going to get dysregulated automatically. So let’s re-regulate—the re-regulation is the rep.”“If the leader, or CEO, or C-Suite isn’t creating that culture [of safety], then it will fall apart when there are challenges. Just like we need to have a flexible nervous system, we need to have a flexible cultural nervous system to be able to manage the flexible challenges of business also.”“Trauma is any experience of threat, disconnection, isolation, or immobilization that results in the long-term or chronic dysregulation of either your endocrine system, your immune system, your emotional body, your brain, your body, your spirit—your health on any level, basically.”“The problem with successful people and ambitious people is every time we level up, we increase complexity and stress, and those pathways get activated again.”“Stoicism is great for growth. It’s just not great for healing.”Key Takeaways Understanding the Nervous System: The nervous system governs how we experience life. Recognizing when we are in a "fight or flight" state (yellow) or a "shut down" state (red) allows us to make conscious decisions to move back into a "ventral vagal" state (green), where we're most productive and connected.The Power of Co-Regulation: Leaders, parents, and partners all play a role in co-regulating others. Learning how to stay calm and collected can positively influence those around you, fostering a more supportive and effective environment.Trauma’s Role in Leadership: Unresolved trauma can cause leaders to react disproportionately, affecting their teams and overall performance. Recognizing and healing these trauma responses is essential for effective leadership.Reframing Anxiety and Stress: Instead of seeing anxiety as an isolated mental challenge, Mastin explains how it's deeply tied to our physical nervous system and can be addressed by body-based approaches like somatic experiencing.Neuroception and Safety: Our bodies are constantly scanning for safety or danger. Learning to re-regulate when our neuroception is triggered can help us stay present and avoid unnecessary reactions to perceived threats.Reclaim Your Life: Trauma doesn't need to define your future. By understanding your nervous system, you can reclaim your happiness and make progress in all areas of life, from work to personal relationships.Resources Mastin Kipp on Instagram: @mastinkippMastin Kipp’s Book: Reclaim Your Nervous SystemWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/hhMXVMNDCIY This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

They’re underestimated because they do take consistency to see results.”“Especially as women, we can have this martyr mindset where everyone’s first. That might work for a week, a season, but you will get so depleted. And then what do you have?”“As I’m blocking out my schedule, I’m curating the life I actually want.”“There’s so much I say no to, and I love it.”“You have to truly build systems for your life. I think we focus so much on systems from a business perspective, but I mean for your personal life.”“One of my goals for 2024 was to stop saying, ‘I don’t have time.’ I say, ‘I don’t make time for that’ because I really believe we have time to do the things that we want to do. We can’t do everything, but that’s why you need to know what you want to do.”Key Takeaways Less But Better Philosophy: Jordan’s approach to skincare and life is rooted in minimalism—prioritizing quality over quantity in everything she does.Serving the Need: How did Bareface scale to 250,000 customers in a crowded market? By centering helping over selling.Importance of Time Blocking: Using the Full Focus Planner and time blocking helps her manage her business, family, and personal life effectively.Outsourcing and Systems: Delegating tasks at work and home, including hiring help for household management, enables her to focus on what matters most.Family and Work Balance: With four kids under five, Jordan stresses the importance of systems, outsourcing, and creating margin in her life to be present with her family.Resources Jordan Harper on Instagram: @jordanharpernpBarefaced Skincare: barefaced.comFull Focus Planner: fullfocusplanner.com Watch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/eiuLjusUa2A This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

    GREG MCKEOWN: Making the Essential More Effortless

    What if the key to a more fulfilling life was focusing on less, not more? Greg McKeown, author of Essentialism and Effortless, joins Michael and Megan on The Double Win Show to discuss the power of prioritizing what truly matters amidst life's chaos. Greg shares insights on navigating today’s world of constant distraction, exploring the importance of taking control over small parts of your day, learning to say "no" to non-essential commitments, and making the essential things feel easier. This conversation will inspire you to stop defaulting to the noise and instead design a life where you focus on what truly moves the needle—both personally and professionally. Memorable Quotes “If you don't prioritize your life, someone else will.”“The antidote [to a chaotic world] is the disciplined pursuit of less.”“You can say: ‘Is this the most important contribution I can make?’ If it’s not a clear yes, it becomes a clear no.”“Maybe you can't control everything, but if you could take control of half an hour and use that to design what you want to do, instead of operating by default, it improves the quality of life for the rest of the 23 and a half hours.”“You want everything essential to be as effortless as possible. So that single question is: How can I make this effortless?”Key Takeaways The Power Half-Hour: Take control of 30 minutes of your day to focus on what matters, whether it’s in the morning or the evening, and see the ripple effect on the rest of your time.Essentialism vs. Minimalism: While minimalism is about reducing physical clutter, essentialism is about reducing mental clutter—focusing only on what is truly necessary.Saying No: The ability to say “no” is crucial to staying aligned with your priorities, whether that means saying no to others or even to your own distractions.Effortless Execution: Reframe essential tasks to be more enjoyable and less daunting, making it easier to achieve your most important goals.Radical Gratitude: Practice gratitude not just for the good things, but for all experiences, as a way to shift your mindset and discover hidden opportunities for growth.Resources Greg McKeown's Website: gregmckeown.comEssentialism by Greg McKeownEffortless by Greg McKeownThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound
