If you're into mindset, growth, and the occasional mental mic drop, you're in the right lab.

Episode 161
This episode explores why excellence often comes not from adding more, but from deliberately subtracting what no longer strengthens your craft. Borrowing from the film industry, we discuss how great editors shape award-winning films not by cramming in more scenes, but by cutting the ones that are not essential. You’ll discover why deliberate subtraction is one of the most overlooked tools for improving performance and sharpening your communication as a coach.
