YASKing with Anthony and Arturo

Episode 23 - Playing to Win vs Playing Not to Lose: Choosing Growth Over Safety

Anthony Catalino and Arturo Diaz Season 1 Episode 23

Ready to stop playing small, buttercups? In this game-changing episode, Anthony and Arturo dive deep into the mindset shift that could transform everything: the difference between playing to win and playing not to lose.

Through powerful personal stories (including Arturo's immigrant family perspective and Anthony's journey beyond fear), we explore:

  • Why we choose safety over possibility
  • How our fears limit our dreams
  • The immigrant experience of modesty vs. dreaming big
  • Breaking free from "reasonable" dreams
  • Why being queer can be our superpower in playing to win
  • The connection between self-trust and bold moves
  • How playing small impacts our relationships and careers

Whether you're stuck in a comfortable but unfulfilling situation or ready to make your bold move, this episode is your permission slip to dream bigger. Plus, we share how every time you choose to play to win, you create ripples of possibility for others.

Remember: You're not just here to survive - you're here to thrive! Time to stop protecting what you have and start creating what you want.
