Transforming the Game

Most high performers don’t have a discipline problem.They have a recovery + biology problem.In this episode of Transforming the Game, Kristina Katsanevas sits down with Michael O’Sullivan - mind and body performance coach, NLP practitioner, nutritionist, and CEO/Founder of Elite Power Moves (EPM) - to break down why “train more, eat less” keeps ambitious people tired, stuck, and underperforming.Going deep on the layers most people ignore: belief systems, identity, behaviour, and the biological “owner’s manual” you can use to stop guessing.In this episode, we cover:Why your beliefs, identity, and behaviors shape your health outcomes (not just your workouts)Michael’s story: from 145kg and depressed to building EPMThe difference between “normal” vs optimal bloodwork (and why “normal” can be a red flag)How DNA + blood + hormone testing removes guesswork and personalizes your planWhy high stress keeps people in fight-or-flight (and what that does to performance)What HRV (heart rate variability) actually tells you about recoveryWhy sleep is the fastest lever (including the goal of more restorative sleep)How cortisol rhythm and insulin resistance can affect energy, focus, and resultsPractical habit examples you can apply immediately (even when you’re busy)Michael’s core promise is simple: “One hour with us saves you a thousand hours of guesswork.” If you’re building a career, a business, or a family-and you want better energy, clarity, and longevity-this one is for you.Connect with Michael O’Sullivan (Elite Power Moves):LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elitepowermoves?originalSubdomain=auWebsite: https://elitepowermovesexecutives.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@michaelosullivan8484Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/DLqWERph1BM/Follow / Connect with Transforming the Game:All links: https://beacons.ai/transformingthegameWebsite: https://www.kristinakatsanevas.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristinakatsanevasFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/kristina.katsanevasYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TransformingtheGamePodcastIf this episode hit home, share it with someone who’s pushing hard but still feels “off.”Subscribe for more conversations on performance, leadership, and health.

Most entrepreneurs want to grow big but don’t know the real math that drives profits or how to build a culture that keeps talent and fuels scale.Adam Coffey, CEO with 21 years at the helm, author of four #1 business bestsellers, and private equity veteran behind 58 company acquisitions and $2.5 billion in exits, breaks down exactly how to get it right-first small, then big.In this episode, Adam exposes the brutal truth: If your business doesn’t work profitably at its smallest unit, it will fail at scale. He reveals his unit economics framework, the 30-20-10 rule, and the culture-building secrets that keep employees loyal and customers coming back.  But Adam goes deeper-he shatters the “one-and-done” sale myth by showing how he sold the same company 5 times, each payday bigger than the last, with less equity on each deal. This is how savvy entrepreneurs create multiple exits and grow lasting wealth beyond what most can imagine.What You’ll Learn:  - How to master unit economics and run your business profitably from the ground up  - Building a winning culture that attracts and retains A-players  - Why roll-ups and acquisitions create hyper-growth compared to slow organic methods  - Rollover equity and repeat exits: your path to multiple paydays, not just one  - How to use Adam’s 30-20-10 rule to diagnose and fix profit leaks fast  - Preparing your business for sale the right way to avoid leaving millions on the table  Don’t tune in if… you’re comfortable with guesswork, vague metrics, or one-shot thinking. This episode is for entrepreneurs who want to beat the odds and transform their game with relentless clarity and proven strategy.📺 Watch the full episode on YouTube:   https://youtu.be/iH7mu9zn6pY🎧 Also available on Spotify & Apple Podcasts - search "Transforming the Game"   Connect with Adam Coffey  Website: https://adamecoffey.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamecoffey/ Connect with Kristina Katsanevas / Transforming the GameAll links: https://beacons.ai/transformingthegameWebsite: https://www.kristinakatsanevas.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristinakatsanevasFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/kristina.katsanevasYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TransformingtheGamePodcastSubscribe & Engage:If this episode expanded your thinking or sharpened your influence skills, please subscribe, like, and comment.
