    (Ep. 60) The Long Game of Greatness

    In this episode of the Burn Up Podcast, host Adam Nugent welcomes Bryce Prescott, executive coach, podcast host, and founder of Media Automated and The LAB With Bryce Prescott, and they discuss the realities behind building meaningful work, creating powerful podcasts, and becoming the man you're meant to be. Bryce shares lessons from over a decade in podcasting, why most podcasts fail before ten episodes, and how persistence separates professionals from amateurs. The conversation also dives into personal growth, identity, relationships, and the internal work required to build purpose-driven success. This episode pulls back the curtain on resilience, self-awareness, and playing the long game in life and business.   Key Takeaways: Most people quit long before success becomes possible. Podcasting—and success in general—is a long game. The market isn't as saturated as people think; quality stands out. Experience trumps certifications in meaningful coaching work. Authentic conversations create deeper connection and impact. Meaning isn't discovered; it's created and tested through living. Personal growth often comes through relationship struggles and self-reflection. Empathy without boundaries becomes poison disguised as compassion and care. Identity and purpose evolve through experience, not overnight. Confidence is forged by repeatedly walking through your own hell. The best creators focus on improving their craft rather than chasing trends.

    (Ep. 59) Rebuilding After Burning It All Down

    In this episode of the Burn Up Podcast, host Adam Nugent welcomes Zac Ross and they discuss a life marked by extreme highs, devastating collapses, ego-driven success, addiction cycles, and spiritual awakening. From gang involvement and drug abuse to touring the world in music, building multimillion-dollar solar organizations, and losing everything, Zac shares the brutal truth behind repeated self-sabotage and the core wound of "not enough." The conversation explores worthiness, fatherhood, ego death, and what it really means to rebuild from the ground up. This episode isn't about overnight success — it's about transformation through humility, ownership, and choosing growth when comfort is no longer an option.   Key Takeaways: Success without self-worth eventually collapses. Ego can build empires — and destroy them. The "not enough" wound drives more behavior than most men realize. Addiction isn't always substances — it can be money, status, or applause. You can reinvent yourself — but you can't outrun yourself. Pride keeps you stuck; humility creates momentum. True transformation requires letting part of you die. Fatherhood can shift purpose more than any paycheck. Comfort zones quietly sabotage growth. Identity tied to achievement is fragile. Isolation amplifies shame and stagnation. Men often disappear when they're hurting. Divine intervention often looks like disruption. Serving others is the fastest path back to alignment. Hard seasons expose unfinished business. You cannot build sustainably on ego-driven motives.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights Follow Zac Ross on Instagram  Learn about Adam Nugent's work and podcast at Burn Up Podcast.

    (Ep. 58) From Near Death To New Identity

    In this episode of the Burn Up Podcast, host Adam Nugent welcomes Sean Kimsey and they discuss Sean's powerful story of survival, identity collapse, and rebuilding life after unimaginable adversity. From devastating motorcycle accidents and near-death experiences to divorce, depression, and moments of suicidal ideation, Sean shares the raw truth behind the physical and emotional battles most people never see. They unpack how identity, worthiness, and self-talk shape recovery—and why healing requires facing darkness instead of avoiding it. They also dive into tools for navigating mental health, reframing pain, and separating who you are from what you've been through.    Key Takeaways: Most people only see success—not the suffering behind it. Identity can collapse after divorce, trauma, or major life changes. Near-death experiences can create both physical and emotional rebuilding. Recovery is layered—physical healing does not equal emotional healing. Pain becomes transformational when reframed with purpose. Mental health struggles often begin long before major life events. Suicidal ideation comes from disconnection—not selfishness. Healing starts when you separate who you are from what happened to you. Self-worth cannot be tied to status, marriage, or achievement. Tools like breathwork, movement, and self-dialogue can shift emotional states quickly. Avoidance prolongs suffering; presence reduces it. Authenticity attracts the right people and releases the wrong ones. True masculinity includes vulnerability and emotional honesty. Growth often begins when resistance finally breaks. Support matters—but personal responsibility drives transformation. Showing up daily, even imperfectly, builds resilience over time.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights Follow Sean Kimsey on Instagram  Learn about Adam Nugent's work and podcast at Burn Up Podcast.

    (Ep. 57) Truth Is The Only Way Out

    In this episode of the Burn Up Podcast, host Adam Nugent welcomes Jeff Richins of Heroes Coaching to explore the brutal realities of addiction, identity collapse, and the freedom that comes through radical honesty. Jeff shares his journey from years of meth addiction, incarceration, and destructive behavior to a life rooted in sobriety, service, and masculine accountability. Together, they unpack how secrets, shame, and avoidance create cracks in a man's foundation—and why true healing begins the moment truth is spoken out loud. The conversation dives into awareness, nervous-system regulation, addiction patterns beyond substances, and the difference between sobriety and true recovery.    Key Takeaways: Every addiction is rooted in avoidance and emotional numbing. Radical accountability is the gateway to spiritual awakening. Secrets create cracks that eventually collapse your foundation. Sobriety alone is not recovery—growth requires identity work. Truth spoken out loud removes shame faster than silence ever will. Awareness is the first step toward changing destructive patterns. Many men don't know who they are beyond roles or addictions. Confidence is built through integrity and kept commitments. Emotional reactions reveal unresolved inner conflicts. The "comfortable hell" keeps people stuck longer than pain itself. Recovery is defined by how you respond—not what happens to you. Masculine healing requires facing darkness, not avoiding it. Self-worth must come from within, not external validation. Small actions compound into massive identity shifts. Fitness and physical health accelerate emotional recovery. Freedom comes when identity separates from past mistakes.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights Follow Jeff Richins on Instagram  Learn about Adam Nugent's work and podcast at Burn Up Podcast.

    (Ep. 56) American Ninja Mindset

    In this episode of the Burn Up Podcast, host Adam Nugent welcomes Wally Roskelley and they discuss the real mechanics of confidence, manifestation, and identity. Wally shares how defining who you are—not just what you want—creates momentum, courage, and consistency across fitness, business, and life. From building the world's largest Ninja Warrior gym to conquering fear on national television, Wally reveals how purpose, focus, and incremental advancement reshape outcomes. Adam weaves in his own journey through weight loss, addiction, divorce, and self-worth, highlighting how pain becomes fuel when identity shifts. This episode is a masterclass on leaning into fear, choosing growth over avoidance, and becoming the person capable of creating the life you envision.   About the Guest: Wally Roskelley is a successful entrepreneur, a professional keynote speaker, 3-time American Ninja Warrior, the 2024 Masters Ninja Athlete Games World Champion, and a struggling male model.   Key Takeaways: Identity drives behavior more powerfully than motivation. Manifestation begins with deciding who you are, not what you want. Fear is often a calling, not a warning. Confidence is built through action and stacked wins. Anxiety comes from imagining outcomes that haven't happened. Avoidance creates shame; movement creates momentum. Purpose gives discipline staying power when motivation fades. Dopamine shortcuts temporarily numb pain but deepen it long-term. Small daily actions compound into massive life change. Worth is a choice, not something earned through achievement. Growth requires rupture and the release of old identities. Pain becomes productive when you stop resisting it. Self-trust is forged by keeping promises to yourself. Parenting with purpose can radically change a child's trajectory. You become what you repeatedly declare and embody. Advancement—no matter how small—is the source of fulfillment.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights Follow Wally Roskelley on Instagram  Learn about Adam Nugent's work and podcast at Burn Up Podcast.

    (Ep. 55) How To Eliminate Suffering

    In this episode, host Adam Nugent challenges one of the most ingrained beliefs in personal development: that suffering is unavoidable. While pain is a natural part of being human, Adam explains why suffering is largely self-created through resistance, attachment, and refusal to accept what is. Using powerful personal stories—including addiction, financial collapse, and a flooded basement—he breaks down how acceptance instantly reduces emotional intensity and how avoidance multiplies pain into prolonged suffering. Adam also exposes how numbing behaviors temporarily relieve discomfort while quietly deepening it, and why real confidence is forged by moving through discomfort rather than escaping it.    Key Takeaways: Pain is inevitable; suffering is optional. Most suffering comes from resisting reality. Acceptance immediately reduces emotional intensity. Awareness is the first step to any change. Avoidance multiplies pain into long-term suffering. Addiction is rooted in numbing uncomfortable emotions. Attachment to outcomes fuels frustration and despair. You cannot change the past—only your relationship to it. Everything in life is temporary, including emotions. Growth requires discomfort and rupture. Confidence is built by overcoming resistance. Keeping commitments to yourself builds self-trust. Victimhood prolongs suffering. You are the author of your story. Perspective determines emotional experience. You can choose to see life as happening for you.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights  Learn about Adam Nugent's work at the Burn Up Website.

    (Ep. 54) For The Married Man That Is Struggling

    In this episode, host Adam Nugent speaks directly to married men who feel disconnected, unseen, and painfully lonely inside their relationship. Drawing from his own 17-year marriage, divorce, and hard-earned self-awareness, Adam unpacks how avoidance, people-pleasing, numbing behaviors, and misaligned masculine energy quietly destroy intimacy and trust over time. He challenges men to stop blaming their wives, stop hiding behind money or provision, and take radical accountability for their role in the disconnect. This episode is a practical, no-BS roadmap for rebuilding polarity, trust, and emotional safety through consistent action, uncomfortable honesty, and self-worth. It's an invitation for men to lead again—not through control or performance, but through presence, courage, and integrity.   Key Takeaways: The deepest loneliness often exists inside a marriage, not outside it. Money and provision cannot replace emotional presence. Disconnection grows when conflict is avoided instead of addressed. Masculine and feminine polarity must be alive for intimacy to thrive. Hyper-feminized men create hyper-masculine, guarded partners. Trust is rebuilt through consistent action, not words or gifts. Years of resentment cannot be undone overnight. Porn, food, and substances are coping tools for emotional avoidance. Numbing behaviors temporarily soothe pain but deepen disconnection. Radical accountability is the fastest path to clarity and freedom. You cannot control your partner—only how you show up. True leadership in marriage begins with self-leadership. Emotional safety is required before physical intimacy can return. Asking questions builds connection faster than making demands. If you don't do the work now, you'll repeat the pattern later. Short-term discomfort prevents long-term regret.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights  Learn about Adam Nugent's work at the Burn Up Website.

    (Ep. 53) Building Confidence One Hard Thing At A Time

    In this episode, host Adam Nugent breaks down the most misunderstood—and most attractive—human quality: confidence. Stripping away hype and bravado, Adam explains why real confidence is quiet, earned, and rooted in self-trust built through action. Drawing from his own weight-loss journey, business experience, relationships, and coaching conversations, he shows how confidence is forged by keeping promises to yourself, stacking small wins, and leaning into fear instead of avoiding it. He also exposes why most people stay stuck in shame and comparison, why motivation always fades, and why imperfect action beats waiting for readiness.   Key Takeaways: Confidence is quiet; insecurity is loud. Real confidence is earned, not affirmed. Self-belief is built by keeping commitments to yourself. Motivation fades; discipline and consistency remain. Small wins compound into massive confidence over time. Fear is not a warning—it's a calling. Avoidance creates shame; action dissolves it. Wanting something and working for it are very different. Imperfect action beats perfect intention every time. Confidence grows through lived experience, not visualization alone. Wearing a mask creates exhaustion and fragility. Authenticity attracts the right people and repels the wrong ones. Masculine confidence comes from alignment, not validation. The stories in your head can be rewritten through action. Hard conversations create freedom faster than avoidance ever will. Everything you want is on the other side of discomfort.   Resources: Follow Adam Nugent on Instagram for more motivational content and insights  Learn about Adam Nugent's work at the Burn Up Website.
