    EP 6 – The Surrender (Male Perspective) | Bryce Smith | ALLSMITH

    Bryce Smith, founder of ALLSMITH, and Dr. Bek Jarzombek have an authentic conversation around the male perspective of the Moment of Suspension arc: performance overdrive, the gap, and ultimately… surrender. Known for the philosophy “Forged Not Found,” Bryce brings a perspective shaped through adversity, loss, discipline, pressure, leadership, business, sports, faith, family, and personal growth. This conversation dives into what happens when the systems that once drove you no longer bring peace — and the shift that occurs when someone moves from constantly doing… into actually being. This is one of the rawest and most honest conversations yet on the podcast. A lot of men are going to see themselves in this one.

    EP 5 – The Gap (Female Perspective) | Dr. Leslie Hewitt

    There’s a season where nothing looks like it’s working. The things that once created results… don’t. The clarity you had… disappears. And you’re left in a space where there may be no evidence… yet. That space is The Gap. It’s the phase that requires faith—before there’s proof. In this episode, Dr. Leslie Hewitt and Dr. Bek Jarzombek talk about what it feels like to be inside that tension—and why it’s not a breakdown, but a transition. You’re not lost. You’re in between.

    EP 4 – The Gap

    The crux of the Moment of Suspension series is The Gap. This is where most people get taken out. You enter the Gap after realizing Performance Overdrive won’t work for what’s next — capacity hits a ceiling. Performance overdrive does work for a while. It increases output and builds revenue, muscle, skill, and reputation. There’s evidence there, which is exactly why it’s so tempting to stay. But it’s borrowed capacity, fueled by adrenaline, pressure, control, hyper-vigilance, and survival wiring. Eventually the same system that built the last level stops working for the next one. That’s when the Gap begins. The Gap is identity deconstruction — releasing control while the next version of you begins to form. During this phase, evidence disappears. If the next version of you required applause, proof, or reassurance, it wouldn’t be strong enough to carry the calling. Instead, the Gap trains something deeper: self-trust, internal authority, and obedience without reward. This is where faith stops being conceptual and becomes embodied. The Gap isn’t a choosing season. It’s a being season. And for people who are used to building their lives through output, effort, and results — this can be the most uncomfortable place of all.

    EP 3 – Performance Overdrive (Female Perspective) | Sarah Young

    In this episode, I’m joined by my sister, Sarah Young, for an honest, grounded conversation about the Performance Overdrive Woman archetype — from lived experience, not theory — and what it looks like when high capacity quietly becomes identity. Together, we explore how early responsibility, adaptability, and strength can subtly shape who we become, and how the very patterns that once protected us eventually ask to be released. She didn’t fall into performance overdrive because she was broken. She fell into it because she was capable. Capable women don’t get rescued — they get rewarded. They learn early that they can carry more, do more, hold it together longer than most. And so they do. Performance overdrive isn’t ambition, discipline, or calling. It’s an identity. It’s the woman who becomes indispensable. The woman who adapts quickly, produces consistently, and keeps going — even when rest would be wiser. Not because she wants to prove anything, but because stopping was never modeled as safe. This pattern works. It builds success. It earns trust, leadership, and respect. Until it doesn’t. Because eventually, capacity without containment becomes unsustainable pressure. And pressure without permission to stop turns into burnout, resentment, or numbness — not failure, but a ceiling. Performance overdrive isn’t who she is. It’s what once protected her. And the question that ends this phase isn’t “How do I do less?” It’s: Who am I if I’m no longer the one who carries everything? This episode marks the moment just before The Gap —when the old identity still works…but no longer has the capacity to carry what’s coming next. Connect with Sarah Young: https://vesselbusiness.com

    EP 2 – Performance Overdrive

    Performance overdrive isn’t failure. It’s a strategy — one that works… until it doesn’t. In this episode of Moment of Suspension, Doctor Bek explores performance overdrive not as ambition gone wrong, but as a survival pattern rooted in pressure, identity, and unresolved rejection. For many high-capacity people, excellence wasn’t a personality trait — it was the way they learned to stay safe, relevant, and moving forward.   Doctor Bek shares how her own relationship with performance was shaped early, and how the “go, go, go — do, do, do — you’ll figure it out when you get there” mindset carried her far in business and life. Even when it became unsustainable, stopping wasn’t an option — because stopping wasn’t part of the operating system.   The first real warning didn’t show up in her body or her business. It showed up in her horse.   Through equine reflection, this episode unpacks how her horse began experiencing performance overdrive through her — stopping at jumps, resisting forward motion — mirroring the internal pressure and unrelenting demand she was carrying. Just because a horse is built for power, speed, and high performance doesn’t mean it can live there indefinitely. And neither can humans.   Like a high-performance engine stuck at high RPMs, the system eventually breaks. Cortisol rises. Fight-or-flight takes over. The nervous system reaches a ceiling.   Performance itself isn’t the problem. Horses love their jobs. Humans love challenge. The danger is living in overdrive without rhythm, recovery, or truth.   This episode introduces the beginning of the reset — pulling a high-performance horse out of training, returning to trail riding, and starting to rewire the operating system. For driven, Type-A personalities, taking the foot off the gas feels terrifying. Because if you stop pushing, how could you possibly get where you’re going?   And yet, this conversation begins to reframe success itself — not as performance without restraint, but as performance with peace.   Because stillness isn’t stagnation. Stillness is where you hear God. And stillness is where your brilliance actually lives.   This episode sets the stage for what comes next — The Gap — by asking the question that changes everything:   What if the thing that got you here can’t take you any further?

    EP 1 – Origin of Suspension

    It started with a horse — in the suspension just before a jump, when forward motion is inevitable and everything goes quiet. Pressure lifts. Time stretches. Something deeper happens. What felt physical at first became personal, then spiritual, and eventually foundational to how I understand faith, performance, and alignment. In this episode, I share where the idea of suspension came from, why it matters, and how learning to recognize that moment before the jump has changed the way I move, lead, and trust. This isn’t about stopping or stepping back. It’s about alignment — and what becomes possible when you stop pushing and start trusting.
