Peak Performance and Peak Satisfaction in Your Business Career
Why White-Knuckling Your Career Makes You Worse At It
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most of us were trained to work hard and try our best, but never trained on how much is enough. In this episode, I break down where that white-knuckled, gripping-too-tight approach to work actually comes from, and why athletes have a better model for it than most leaders do.
What You’ll Learn From This Episode:
- Why “work hard and do your best” can quietly become a recipe for burnout when no one ever taught you where the boundary is.
- The difference between chasing external validation and building real, self-sourced satisfaction in your work.
- Why your career was never meant to be the measure of your safety or your worth.
- What athletes mean by playing with “soft hands,” and how to apply it to interviews, negotiations, and high-stakes moments at work.
- A real client story on loosening your grip during an intense, high-pressure season without losing your performance.
Whether you’re heading into a big decision or just in the middle of a demanding season at work, I show you how to perform your best by releasing excess tension.
