You Are the Bottleneck (Here’s How to Change That)

If you want to build a business, a life, and a level of performance that doesn’t collapse under pressure, you need more than “mental health.” You need mental fitness — the trainable capacity to do difficult things with clarity, calm, and control. In this episode, I break down what mental fitness actually is, why so many high performers hit invisible limits, and how I went from anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed to Royal Marines Commando, business owner, father and coach to elite performers. You’ll hear how mental fitness is built through deliberate sets and reps, how your brain adapts under stress, and the four domains you must train if you want to increase your capacity rather than drain it. If you’ve ever felt like you are the bottleneck in your business or your life… this episode will show you why — and what to do next.
