Are You Smarter Than You Think?

For years, we’ve been told intelligence is about IQ, test scores, and fitting into a rigid mold. But what if everything you thought about intelligence was wrong? What if intelligence isn't just one thing—but many?

In this episode, I sit down with one of the most influential psychologists of our time, Dr. Howard Gardner, the man behind the groundbreaking Theory of Multiple Intelligences. His work changed the way I see people—including myself—and I know it’s going to change the way you see yourself and those around you. We break down the different types of intelligence and how understanding them can transform your confidence, your parenting, your leadership, and even your business.

Think you’re not smart just because you weren’t great at math? Think again. You may have an intelligence that’s been overlooked your whole life. Dr. Gardner explains how to identify your strengths, unlock your potential, and even help your kids or team members thrive by recognizing their unique abilities.

We also get into the future—how AI is reshaping intelligence, what true leadership looks like, and why being "smart" isn’t enough. We need people who use their intelligence for good, who lead with purpose, and who build lives based on their natural strengths.

Key Takeaways:

• The eight types of intelligence and why traditional IQ tests only measure two
• How to identify your personal intelligence (or your child’s)
• The hidden biases we have about intelligence—and how they impact hiring, leadership, and success
• Why AI is changing the way we think about intelligence and what it means for our future
• The secret to staying mentally sharp as you age

This conversation is going to shift the way you see yourself forever. Stop doubting your intelligence—start understanding it. Let’s go!

Are You Running on Autopilot? Break the Patterns Holding You Back!

So many of us are stuck in cycles—repeating the same thoughts, behaviors, and reactions without even realizing it. What if you could identify the subconscious patterns that are limiting your success and replace them with ones that propel you forward? In this mashup, I sit down with some of the most accomplished minds in personal development, business, and sports—Tony Robbins, Brendon Burchard, Stephen A. Smith, and Mark "The Undertaker" Calaway—to uncover the habits and mindsets that separate the elite from the average.

Tony Robbins shares how gratitude destroys fear and anger, and why shifting your physiology can instantly change your state. Brendon Burchard breaks down the difference between automatic habits and deliberate habits, revealing why true high performance requires intention, not just repetition. Stephen A. Smith explains why mastering your business and knowing your worth removes emotion from negotiation, making success a data-driven game. And Mark "The Undertaker" Calaway reflects on self-criticism, discipline, and how he stayed on top for decades by constantly evaluating his own performance.

The key takeaway? Success isn’t about talent alone—it’s about the patterns you run every single day. Are your habits serving you, or are they keeping you stuck? The most successful people in the world aren’t waiting for motivation or luck; they’re choosing their emotions, training their minds, and installing new, empowering patterns in their lives.

✅ The hidden subconscious patterns running your life—good and bad

✅ How to break free from worry, self-doubt, and limiting beliefs

Are You Playing Chess or Checkers With Your Life?

Most people go through life playing checkers—reacting to what’s in front of them, making moves one at a time with no long-term strategy. But those who truly win? They’re playing chess. They’re creating patterns, structures, and behaviors that set them up for success at the highest level.

In this episode, we’re breaking down a concept that has fascinated me—how much of our behavior is inherited, and how much is learned? If alligators instinctively know how to survive freezing temperatures without ever being taught, what does that mean for us? Could we be operating on deep-seated patterns that go back generations? And if that’s true, how do we break free and build the life we were meant to live?

The key isn’t endless self-analysis. Too many people spend their lives looking back, trying to dissect every piece of their past instead of stepping forward into their future. Your ability to adapt—to create new structures, new habits, and new ways of thinking—is what determines whether you stay stuck or level up. The thoughts and behaviors that got you here won’t take you to the next level.

At some point, you have to stop asking why everything happened to you and start asking what you’re going to do next. You have a mission, a purpose, and a calling. That’s why you’re still here. It’s time to build the structure that will take you where you were always meant to go.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

✅ Why self-reflection is valuable—but self-analysis can hold you back

✅ How to identify patterns in your life that may be inherited, not chosen

✅ The one mindset shift that separates people who stay stuck from those who elevate

✅ Why adaptation—not just understanding—is the key to success

✅ How to build new habits and structures that align with your next level

Your best days aren’t behind you. They’re still ahead—if you’re willing to make the necessary changes. Max out.

We also break down the hidden dangers in your diet, from glyphosate (a common herbicide) to ultra-processed foods that are destroying your gut lining and wreaking havoc on your health. Plus, Dr. Gundry gives practical steps to rebuild your microbiome, including the power of fermented foods, the dangers of certain antibiotics, and the key nutrients your gut NEEDS to thrive.

This episode is a game-changer—whether you’re looking to improve your mental clarity, kick an addiction, or just take your health to the next level. Listen up, take notes, and start paying attention to your gut—because it might be the real driver of your life.
