• The Unfiltered Truth About Peak Performance with Jim Murphy

  How to Lead When Everything Falls Apart What happens when the bottom drops out—when the game you’ve built your identity on slips away, when your performance defines your worth, and suddenly, it's all gone? My guest today, Jim Murphy, knows precisely what that feels like. As a former outfielder in the Chicago Cubs organization, Jim’s identity—and his life—revolved around how he performed on the field. When he confronted his own fear of failure and the collapse of that dream, he didn’t bail—he embarked on a journey that led him into sports psychology and ultimately to revolutionize how high performers train their heart under pressure. And in this episode, we go deep into what it takes to rebuild when your identity is shattered and discover excellence fused with peace. Jim and I talk about what it’s like to go through failure that feels public, permanent, and personal. He shares what it took to confront the shame, rebuild from the ground up, and discover that leadership isn’t about titles or trophies—it’s about who you are when everything else is stripped away. His story is raw and real, but it’s also filled with hope. We dive into the mindset shifts that kept him going when most people would’ve quit, and how he found a deeper purpose on the other side of loss. Jim doesn’t sugarcoat the process—he’s honest about the mistakes, the doubts, and the long road back. But through it all, he shows us that true greatness isn’t found in the spotlight. It’s forged in the shadows, in the moments when no one’s watching, and you still choose to rise. If you’ve ever faced a setback that felt too heavy to carry, or wondered how to lead when you don’t feel like you’ve got anything left to give, this conversation will remind you that failure isn’t final. It’s often the very soil where your greatest calling starts to grow. Key Takeaways: Why leadership is revealed in failure, not just success How to confront shame and rebuild your confidence after loss The mindset shifts that allow you to rise when life knocks you down Why titles and achievements will never define true leadership How to find your deeper purpose in the middle of setbacks This isn’t just about bouncing back—it’s about becoming someone stronger, wiser, and more impactful because of the storm. Lean in, and let Jim’s story remind you what it means to lead when it matters most. — Max Out.   ⁠👉 SUBSCRIBE TO ED'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈⁠   → → → CONNECT WITH ED MYLETT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: ← ← ←  ➡️ ⁠INSTAGRAM⁠   ➡️⁠FACEBOOK⁠   ➡️ ⁠LINKEDIN⁠   ➡️ ⁠X ⁠  ➡️ ⁠WEBSITE⁠  Learn more about your ad choices.

• Success Starts Where Comfort Ends

  The Road Less Traveled: Why Struggle Means You’re on the Right Path If everybody around you is cheering you on, chances are… you’re not playing big enough. The truth is, the journey to greatness isn’t supposed to feel comfortable. It’s filled with resistance, rejection, doubt, and moments of deep loneliness. And as painful as that can feel, those are actually the signs you’re on the right road—the road less traveled, the road to freedom, and the road to becoming the person you were born to be.In this episode, I break down what it really looks like to pursue success—not the highlight reel you see on social media, but the real, gritty, lonely process that comes with choosing to live differently. I share why feelings like fear, anxiety, rejection, and even isolation are not signs you’re failing, but green lights that you’re moving in the right direction. When you feel like giving up, when the yield signs in life tempt you to take the easy path, that’s the exact moment you have to decide: I will not yield.I also tell one of the most powerful stories from my own life—how years of setbacks, rejection, and persistence led to a miracle I never saw coming: helping my sister regain her vision. That moment reminded me that staying the course on the road less traveled doesn’t just change your life—it creates ripple effects you can’t even imagine for the people you love.This conversation is about more than chasing your dreams. It’s about recognizing that the pain, doubt, and struggle you’re experiencing are proof that you’re in the right place. And if you stay on that road—committed, serving others, and refusing to yield—you will not only achieve your dreams, but unlock blessings and opportunities far beyond anything you could picture today.Key Takeaways: • Why rejection, fear, and isolation are actually signs you’re on the right road• The difference between the crowded, comfortable path and the road less traveled• Why commitment creates freedom—not bondage—in your life• The role of service in lighting the path when the road feels dark• A powerful personal story of how persistence led to a miracle for my sister• How staying the course opens doors to dreams you can’t even imagine yetYou were born for something great.

• How to Work with Anyone Even the Difficult Ones with Ryan Leak

  What If Failing Was the Best Thing That Could Happen to You? In this powerful conversation with Ryan Leak, we dive into one of the most misunderstood truths about success: failure isn’t the end—it’s the beginning. Ryan is a best-selling author, speaker, and executive coach who’s made a career out of helping people reframe failure as the very path to greatness. And in this episode, he breaks down why most of us are playing it too safe, avoiding the very thing that could unlock our next level. Ryan opens up about his own journey, including the doubts and fears he had to walk through to get where he is today. We talk about what it feels like to take risks when everyone’s watching, how to silence the inner critic that says you’re not enough, and why your willingness to fail may be the single most important indicator of your future success. What I love about Ryan is that he doesn’t just talk theory—he lives this stuff. He shares how writing books, building a business, and coaching leaders all started with moments where failure seemed inevitable. And yet, by leaning in instead of running away, he discovered opportunities that never would’ve shown up otherwise. If you’ve been holding back, waiting until you feel “ready,” or letting fear of failure keep you small, this episode will set you free. Ryan’s wisdom will challenge the way you see setbacks, redefine what winning really looks like, and remind you that courage always comes before confidence. Key Takeaways: Why failure is often the best teacher for growth and innovation How to quiet the inner critic and reframe self-doubt The difference between failing and being a failure Why confidence is a result of courage, not a prerequisite for it Practical steps to start taking bigger risks without being paralyzed by fear You don’t need to wait until you’re fearless to take action. The truth is, the future belongs to those willing to fail forward.
