    "The Psychology of Leadership" Author and T. Rowe Price CIO Sebastien Page

    The Psychology of Leadership with Sebastien Page: Listening, Strategic Quitting, and Long-Term Thinking Jason Wright interviews Sebastien Page, T. Rowe Price’s Head of Global Multi-Asset and CIO overseeing $500+ billion, about his book The Psychology of Leadership and the mindset and habits behind effective leadership. Page argues leadership is often counterintuitive: listening can matter more than communication; quitting—like selling an investment or stopping a failing project—is harder than persistence; and stress is inevitable but can be used as performance fuel. They discuss goal-induced blindness (including Everest examples), the importance of long-term thinking and meaning (the “three bricklayers” analogy), and mentoring high-achievers beyond wealth or fame. Page highlights basics for sustained performance—sleep, diet, exercise—and uses box breathing before high-stress moments like CNBC appearances. They also cover growth mindset, process-oriented excellence, and Page cites GE CEO Larry Culp as a leadership exemplar. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 02:32 Energy Management Talk 05:28 Leadership Myths Flipped 08:51 Strategic Quitting Skills 11:08 Goals and Everest Lesson 14:31 Born or Made Leaders 18:43 Growth Mindset and Excellence 22:32 Process Goals and Mastery 25:02 Leadership Basics 26:06 Sleep Diet Exercise 28:10 Breathwork Under Stress 29:44 Positive Self Talk 31:46 Mental Rehearsal Mastery 34:31 Avoid Toxic Positivity 38:07 Long Range Goals 39:35 Meaning Over Money 41:56 Mentoring High Achievers 48:40 Book Takeaways Wrap 50:15 Leaders Worth Studying 52:05 Final Sign Off

    Monday Morning Mentor: Focus on What You Can Control

    Monday Morning Mentor: Focus on What You Can Control Jason Wright discusses a New York Magazine article by Xochitl Gonzalez that uses renewed nostalgia for smoking to express a cynical, nihilistic “nothing matters” reaction to a “deranged year,” framed around political events and a belief that the future is too bleak to justify good habits. Wright argues this mindset shows up in everyday life when people give up on health, appearance, and discipline because they feel powerless over society and current events. He shares a lesson from a former manager about concentrating on the “circle” of things you can control and applies it to personal standards: grooming, dressing well, being kind and respectful, working hard, sleeping, eating well, exercising, and staying hydrated. He recounts adopting these habits in college to build character and self-respect regardless of what others do or what happens in the world. 00:00 Welcome and Subscribe 00:22 Provocative Smoking Article 02:17 Reading the Article Excerpt 05:49 Nihilism and Giving Up 07:32 Circle of Control Lesson 08:21 Daily Grooming Standards 10:16 College Habits and Self Respect 12:44 Character and Closing Thoughts

    Monday Morning Mentor: 10 Things Good Parents Don't Do

    Monday Morning Mentor: 10 Parenting “Don’ts” for Raising Well-Adjusted Kids In this Monday Morning Mentor episode, Jason Wright reflects on parenting his daughters Ryland (26, newly married) and Abby, sharing a list of “not to do” parenting lessons shaped partly by his own experience with conditional love growing up. He advises parents not to make love conditional, not to guilt-trip kids about costs or sacrifices, and not to praise intelligence over effort to avoid a fixed mindset (citing Carol Dweck’s work). He warns against spoiling children and recommends teaching delayed gratification through goals or matching contributions. Other “don’ts” include letting kids get tattoos, accepting important messages by text instead of calls, allowing sloppy dress, and letting a day pass without meaningful conversation or without saying “I love you,” emphasizing agape love as action. 00:00 Welcome and Support 00:41 Why Parenting Matters 02:13 Parenting Donts Setup 02:51 Avoid Conditional Love 04:29 Skip the Guilt Trips 05:28 Praise Effort Not Smarts 07:54 No Spoiling Teach Earning 11:17 Think Twice About Tattoos 15:03 Calls Over Texts 17:02 Dress With Self Respect 20:09 Daily Real Conversations 22:25 Say I Love You Daily 23:33 Wrap Up and Sign Off

    Get Smarter-Please!

    A Plea to Get Smarter: Brain Fitness, Reading, and Escaping the Attention Economy Jason Wright asks listeners to intentionally “get smarter” by strengthening their ability to reason, focus, and tolerate boredom, arguing society is regressing in communication and thinking and that this correlates with widening wealth gaps. He warns that “free” digital services (Pluto TV, Gmail, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook) make users the product by monetizing attention, and encourages replacing doom-scrolling with reading and other “brain fitness” habits. Citing books and thinkers like Greg McKeown (Essentialism), Arthur Brooks (The Meaning of Your Life), and Cal Newport (Deep Work, Big Questions), he frames reading as pushups for the brain and suggests puzzles, learning guitar, timers/deleting apps, and reading a few sentences before checking social media. He urges reduced dependence on LLMs by thinking first, researching independently, writing by hand, and using AI mainly to polish, and recommends using history to contextualize current events, ending with a call to be a better thinker over partisan identity. 00:00 Welcome and a Plea 00:57 Why Society Feels Dumber 02:56 Free Apps and You Are Product 04:12 Books and Digital Minimalism 06:13 Brain Fitness Through Reading 07:34 Beat Doomscrolling With Three Sentences 10:04 Use LLMs Less Think More 10:57 Write by Hand to Think Better 13:01 History Repeats Itself 14:21 Final Plea and Closing 15:40 Outro and Calls to Action

    Treat Your Spouse Like the Dream They Can Become

    After his daughter’s wedding, Jason shares advice from the Bible studies they held leading up to it: to maintain a happy marriage, treat your spouse as though they already are the man or woman of your dreams, because people tend to live up to how they are treated. He extends this idea to all relationships and to personal growth through identity-based habits—acting like the healthier, smarter, or more successful version of yourself makes it more likely you’ll become that person. Jason describes how he cherishes his wife, Jim Lynn, with daily affection and small acts like making her coffee, and warns that nagging, harshness, or treating a spouse like a cheater or lazy person can push them toward those behaviors. He closes with podcast credits and a request for newsletter sign-ups and a five-star iTunes rating. 00:00 Wedding Weekend Reflections 00:27 Treat Them Like the Dream 01:37 Identity Habits for You 02:21 Bragging on My Wife 03:25 Your Monday Challenge 03:49 The Danger of Negativity 04:33 Show Wrap and Call to Action

    Monday Morning Mentor: Never Complain, Never Explain

    Never Complain, Never Explain Jason reflects on the quote “never complain, never explain,” which he heard from Robert Greene and believes is attributed to a former British Prime Minister, and describes how he researched it and recognized his own habits of complaining and explaining. He argues that complaining is exhausting, people don’t care to hear it, and it can enlarge problems by reinforcing a negative mindset, noting a perceived correlation between frequent complaints and more aches and pains. He also commits to stopping unnecessary explanations about his unconventional, project-based work and podcasting, emphasizing he doesn’t owe anyone justification and should let actions speak for themselves. He shares Greene’s framing that complaining makes you look weak and encourages listeners to stop whining, stop explaining, and focus on doing. He closes the episode with podcast credits and requests for newsletter signups and ratings. 00:00 Never Complain Never Explain 00:30 Why Complaining Backfires 01:06 Stop Explaining Yourself 01:57 Let Actions Speak 02:30 Robert Greene Breakdown 03:41 Weekly Challenge Wrap Up 03:48 Show Outro and Calls

    JB Glossinger on Reducing Cognitive Load, Saying No, and Building Systems for Consistent High Performance

    JB Glossinger on Reducing Cognitive Load, Saying No, and Building Systems for Consistent High Performance Jason Wright interviews performance coach and MorningCoach founder JB Glossinger about building systems to reduce cognitive load and decision fatigue for entrepreneurs facing information overload. JB shares how early academic struggles pushed him to create a productivity framework rooted in the “six things” prioritization method, later expanded into a mission-vision-values cascade down to goals, projects, and tasks. He emphasizes simplifying, using data for business decisions, and prioritizing lifestyle choices, including learning to say “no,” even to a potential $100M corporate deal, to protect his desired life. They discuss identity vs. material status, investing in non-traditional education and coaching, morning perspective and rituals, consistency through small habits that become autonomous, selective tool use (system before tools), community support, and shutting work down in the evening to preserve peace and performance. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 01:08 JB Origin Story 02:51 Entrepreneur Overload 04:47 Sacred Six Framework 07:07 Mission Vision Values 09:08 Power of No 10:12 Data vs Lifestyle 13:32 Lifestyle Filters 17:05 Perspective and Identity 23:01 Consistency and Rituals 25:29 Mission Vision Daily 28:35 Gamification and Tools 30:18 Systems Before Tools 31:25 Steal Less Adapt More 32:53 Waking With Purpose 33:58 Cognitive Load Reset 37:53 Distraction Deep Work 40:31 Day in the Life 47:21 Software Built Around Process 53:51 Community Dopamine Wins 55:35 Success Is Peace 01:01:04 Where To Find JB 01:02:38 Final Wrap And Outro
