Stop the burnout. Overcome the guilt. Reclaim your performance.Change your state, choose your life.If the version of you from five years ago could see you right now, what would they be deeply proud of?In Episode 102 of The Reset, Human Performance Scientist Shaun Tucker gets raw about his own journey. Five years ago, he lost his business to COVID, fell into a deep depression, and was "dressed in shame and guilt."This episode is a deep dive into the necessity of losing yourself to find a version of you that is actually congruent and aligned. It’s about the shift from trying to "prove yourself" to finally being able to "choose yourself."In this episode, we explore:•The Five-Year Audit: A powerful reflection tool to measure your true growth beyond just financial metrics.•The COVID Pivot: How losing a physical business forced a deeper internal regulation and the birth of The Reset.•Sitting in the Tension: Why the ability to feel rising emotion and choose your response is the ultimate high-performance skill.•The Myth of Motivation: Why waiting for "motivation" is a trap and how to move through the dark days with one step and one pause.The work starts when you stop pretending it’s fine.Special mention to Marjenne Verkleij for the inspiration behind this episode.I went through a process from her last week as part of the mastermind that I'm in and she asked me one of these questions.
