And if you have the talent to innovate — don't waste it." — Victor CastroJoin Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and cognitive scientist Dr. Marty Trevino and Victor Kostroub for one of the most important conversations happening right now. We went deep on the one thing quietly killing high achievers: complacency. Victor shares how reaching the summit nearly cost him everything, including a major contract. Dr. Marty breaks down AI psychosis, the real reason leaders are making the most expensive decisions of their careers on autopilot. And then there's the big question, what does innovation even mean when AI can write 200 books a week? If you're building something that matters, this episode is the reset you didn't know you needed.
