Learning How to Perform When It Matters Most Nov 10, 2026

Show notes

What if the pressure you're feeling is actually a privilege?

In this solo episode, I'm sharing a personal experience from a golf tournament that reminded me of some of the biggest lessons in business and life. From competing in a five-hole playoff to reflecting on how much my perspective has changed over the years, we talk about staying calm under pressure, trusting the fundamentals, and recognizing opportunities instead of getting caught up in the fear of failure. Because one day, you might look back and wish you had the very opportunities, challenges, and nerves you're experiencing today. Pressure means you have something worth showing up for. The key is learning to enjoy the moment, trust your preparation, and execute without letting the outcome dictate your next move.

What Successful People Say Behind Closed Doors (But Would Never Admit Publicly) Nov 03, 2026

Show notes

What do successful people really think about behind closed doors?

In this solo episode, I'm sharing some of the most common things I've heard from clients over the years, from questioning whether everyone else has it figured out to wanting to sell it all, struggling with difficult conversations, and wondering why achieving everything they wanted doesn't necessarily make them happy. We talk about the realities of success, the pressure to keep growing, and why you can have an incredible business while still struggling personally. Because at the end of the day, successful people are human, too. And whatever you think you're experiencing alone, chances are, you're not.

A New Approach to Health, Wellness, and Longevity with Keith Bozeman Sep 15, 2026

Show notes

What if healthcare focused less on treating problems after they happen and more on helping you understand and optimize your health before they do?

In this episode, Keith Bozeman shares his unexpected journey from a successful career in IT to founding Medgevity, a concierge medical service built around personalized, proactive care. He opens up about how his faith, personal experiences, and passion for health shaped his vision for a different approach to wellness, one rooted in science, prevention, and treating the whole person.

Tune in to discover what inspired Keith to rethink traditional healthcare and what personalized wellness can look like when you take a more proactive approach to your health.

About Keith Bozeman

After decades of building and scaling an IT Company, Keith became a patient-looking for a more proactive, strategic approach to his health. He had a great doctor and experienced what healthcare could be: a physician who looked at the full picture, focused on prevention, and helped him think long term.

But when he moved, that experience disappeared. Instead he found himself navigating the same fragmented system most people face-brief, insurance driven visits, disconnected providers and no clear strategy tying together fineness-nutrition and medicine. That frustration became the insight. Keith realized the problem wasn’t a lack of information-it was a lack of integration and science backed guidance.

So as a patient first, he built what he couldn’t find: a physician-led, multidisciplinary model where experts collaborate around the patient, not in silos. That model became MEDgevity.
