Mental Skills that Saved the Only Person who has had the #1 Radio Show in 2 Countries | Christian O'Connell

What do you do when the version of yourself that's winning is also the version that's breaking?You know the feeling, hitting every number, saying yes to everything, and still walking away from the day feeling like you performed it rather than lived it. Now imagine finding the exact moment that stopped working, and the one small shift that got you back.Most high performers don't burn out overnight. It happens one performance at a time, right up until the body forces the stop, mid show, mid meeting, mid life.Christian O'Connell has hosted the #1 breakfast radio show in 2 different countries, the only person to do it. He built that success on a persona so complete he stopped recognising himself underneath it, until panic attacks started hitting him minutes before airtime. Christian walks you through the exact mental skill that pulled him out of it, the same one he now teaches others to use before they hit their own breaking point.You can keep performing until something forces you to stop. Or you can borrow the skill that saved someone who'd already won twice.0:00 — The reflection he didn't recognise 5:40 — The epiphany behind a show built on being unscripted 9:12 — "F**k off home": Australia's brutal welcome 19:49 — The morning his mother-in-law nearly died on air 21:03 — The radio tuner dial: shifting from fear to joy 32:12 — The woodshed: never running out of things to say 35:32 — What Jerry Seinfeld taught him about mastery 46:19 — Bruce Springsteen: "thank you for being my purpose" 1:02:18 — Running on clean fuel instead of dirty fuel 1:04:41 — Ricky Gervais, and the courage to admit you're not okay 1:09:56 — Why storytelling is the most underused skill in business 1:22:48 — How to work with Christian O'ConnellYou can find Christian at his website: https://christianoconnell.com/Buy a copy of Christian's book: https://christianoconnell.com/unscript/#pre-orderListen to the Christian O'Connell Show: https://www.thechristianoconnellshow.com.au/Connect with Christian on LinkedIn: https://au.linkedin.com/in/christian-o-connell-8615a6314?trk=people-guest_people_search-card
