    Why Driven Men Fail in Relationships (And How to Fix It!) - Sasha Fedorovosky | EP136

    You’ve built a career, dominated in business, and pushed yourself to the limits physically. But when it comes to relationships, something isn’t clicking. Why do so many driven, successful men struggle in love? The truth is, it’s not about how much you provide—it’s about how you lead. In my latest Ultragrowth podcast episode, I sit down with Sasha Fedorovsky, a men’s relationship coach, to break down why high-achieving men often miss the mark in relationships. Women say they want men to be “more sensitive” or “expressive,” but what do they really mean? And why is society pushing men to suppress their natural instincts instead of embracing them as strengths? What to expect in this episode: (03:14) - The criticism Sasha gets from coaching men. (05:33) - Managing the male-female dynamic with boundaries. (13:02) - A child's happiness is the byproduct of their parent's happiness. (20:15) - How the definition of what the ideal man looks like has evolved. (29:18) - How men need to hold themselves in their relationships. (35:06) - Do women really want men to be sensitive?

    AI, Culture & Leadership: The Future of Service - Joseph Michelli | EP134

    In today’s business world, customer experience (CX) is more important than ever. In a recent interview with Joseph Michelli, a leading expert in customer experience and organizational culture, we explored how AI, culture, and leadership shape exceptional service.

Effective leadership is key to creating a customer-centric organization. Leaders who model empathy and transparency help establish a company culture focused on customer satisfaction. Their vision motivates teams to deliver excellent service at every touchpoint. The future of customer experience lies at the intersection of AI, culture, and leadership. AI enhances efficiency, but it’s the human touch—fueled by a strong culture and empowered leadership—that creates remarkable service.

    Turning Your Doubts Into Your Wins - Carrie Sisk | EP133

    In today's show with Carrie Sisk, we explored how insecurities—those nagging feelings of self-doubt—can become a powerful source of motivation. Carrie emphasized that our perceived flaws, if channelled correctly, can spark resilience and serve as a catalyst for success in both personal and professional arenas. One of the standout moments was our discussion on physical fitness as the perfect gateway to transformation. By engaging in consistent workouts and embracing discipline, you develop the mental toughness necessary to thrive in high-pressure situations. This heightened focus can dramatically influence how executives approach goals, manage teams, and make strategic decisions. We also dived into the concept of diminishing returns, where you must recognize when certain activities or strategies no longer serve your bigger picture. According to Carrie, having the wisdom—and the courage—to pivot is crucial. She challenges leaders to stay agile, recognizing when it’s time to shift focus to the initiatives that align with their ultimate vision. Finally, Carrie underscored the importance of mindset. Whether you’re an executive athlete, a business leader, or an everyday high-performer, the ability to transform insecurities into strengths can set you apart.  By honing discipline, nurturing self-awareness, and staying true to your core objectives, you can convert doubt into unstoppable momentum.
