Mike Lush: Why 'Locking In' Is The Most Dangerous Thing A Founder Can Do
from Dr. Ryan Gleeson · host Ryan Gleeson, Mike Lush
Mike Lush is a performance coach based in Perth, Australia. He works with athletes, C-suite executives and founders through his company Inner Known, and his background is in sports psychology and high performance. He's one of the most switched-on people I've sat across from when it comes to understanding what actually drives elite performance and what quietly kills it. In this episode we go deep on the "locking in" trap, why your recovery strategy is probably costing you more than your business strategy, and the performance equation that explains why high performers consistently underperform against their own potential. If you're a founder who prides yourself on being able to push hard, this one's going to hit close to home. Connect with Mike: @mikerlush IG: @dr_ryangleesonTikTok: @dr.ryangleeson
