| 6/10/26 |  How to Stop Drifting and Find Focus w/ Jule Kim | Ep 437 | Chris Do and Jule Kim sit down to talk about the one question most people avoid asking themselves: what are you actually supposed to be doing with your life? Jule is a coach who has spent years watching clients struggle to answer this, and she's honest that she's still working through it herself. What follows is a real, back-and-forth conversation about focus, latent talent, the danger of building a life around money, and why going back to who you were as a child is often the most useful move you can make.

| 6/3/26 |  How to Become the Authority in Your Space w/ Matthew Byrd | Ep 436 | Most experts are invisible. They've put in the work, they know their field cold, and nobody has heard of them. Matthew Byrd built his authority from an entry-level position in land surveying to founding a global industry conference, and the path wasn't a big platform or viral moment. It was consistency, proactive networking, and content rooted in real expertise. In this episode, Chris and Matthew break down the five-part framework for going from unknown to authority in any niche.

| 5/27/26 |  Why "Faking It" Kills Your Personal Brand w/ Chris Do | Ep 435 | Chris Do identifies the invisible distance between who a creator is and who they present to the world, a phenomenon he calls the authenticity gap. He explains that performing for acceptance rather than showing up authentically leads to creative burnout, attracted the wrong audience, and inconsistent growth. By examining the difference between performance marketing and long-term brand building, Chris offers a four-column framework to help professionals discover their unique intersection of skills and passion.

| 5/20/26 |  How To Become World-Class At Anything w/ Jodie Cook | Ep 434 | Most people think they're world-class. Most people are wrong. In this conversation, Chris sits down with Jodie Cook, entrepreneur, powerlifter, and author, to break down what it actually means to operate at the very top of any field, and what separates the truly elite from everyone else who just thinks they are. They get into the five markers of world-class performance, the four stages of competence (and which one is most dangerous), why the "curse of knowledge" makes mastery hard to teach, and how obsession, not talent, is the common thread across every elite performer Jodie studied.

| 2/18/26 |  The Introvert’s Guide to Visibility w/ Goldie Chan | Ep 420 | Chris Do sits down with Goldie Chan, author of Personal Branding for Introverts, to discuss how introverts can build powerful reputations without compromising their nature. They explore the distinction between reputation and personal branding and how the digital landscape offers a "virtual room" for quieter voices to be heard. The conversation reveals personal strategies for navigating social anxiety, the concept of "loud introverts," and how to use distinctive style as a networking asset.

They discuss the grit required to pivot from a failing retail model to a $400 million e-commerce powerhouse and how high-level naval architecture training informs their intricate paper designs.

| 2/4/26 |  The Hidden Cost of Hustle Culture w/ Panache Desai | Ep 418 | In this episode, Chris Do sits down with Panache Desai to explore why so many high performers feel burned out despite outward success. Panache challenges the idea that people are broken or need fixing, reframing burnout as a symptom of living from survival, identity, and fear rather than from wholeness.

| 1/31/26 |  Why Chasing Metrics Ruins Your Content w/ Chris Do | Ep 417 | In this episode, Chris Do challenges the belief that content performance should be measured by likes, views, or algorithmic wins. He explains why treating social media as a scorecard disconnects creators from their true intentions and ties self-worth to external validation. Drawing from over a decade of experience building a multimillion-dollar brand, Chris shares how creating from honesty and self-expression leads to clarity, confidence, and deeper connection. Rather than chasing metrics, he argues that content should serve as a tool for self-understanding and meaningful communication.

| 1/24/26 |  How to Beat the Competition Without Lowering Your Prices w/ Chris Do | Ep 415 | In this episode, Chris Do challenges the belief that creative work is a commodity and explains why lowering prices is rarely the right solution. He reframes competition through the lens of imagination, using everyday examples to show how value is created through differentiation, convenience, and storytelling rather than cost-cutting. By breaking down familiar products like lettuce, money, and stock certificates, he illustrates how perceived value can increase dramatically with the right positioning. The episode pushes listeners to reconsider how they describe and package their own services instead of racing to the bottom on price.
