About this episode

The episode explores the subconscious barriers that prevent high performers from executing their potential, featuring insights from performance coach Brandon Epstein.

Why do talented, intelligent, driven people know exactly what to do… yet still fail to execute consistently? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with performance coach and author Brandon Epstein to unpack the subconscious patterns, fear-based narratives, and hidden emotional coding that quietly keep high performers stuck beneath their potential.
