Cut The Tie | Own Your Success
Cut The Tie | Own Your Success reveals how high performers think, decide, and overcome obstacles—so you can apply one actionable idea each week.
Each short episode (<10 minutes) features one guest, the tie they cut, and a concrete step you can use now. For the full story, every episode links to the complete YouTube interview.
Insights focus on four areas where people “cut ties”: Finances, Relationships, Health, and Faith.
Guests span operators and outliers—CEOs, entrepreneurs, executives, athletes, creators, scientists, and community leaders—people who’ve cut real ties and can show you how.
