  1. The Hidden Epidemic of High-Functioning Depression with Dr. Judith Joseph

    The Hidden Epidemic of High-Functioning Depression with Dr. Judith Joseph

    Are You Joyful… or Just Functioning? Most people don’t realize it—but there's a silent struggle happening behind the smiles and the schedules. Today, I sit down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a Columbia-trained psychiatrist and author of High Functioning: Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy. We tackle something that I think is affecting more people than anyone talks about… high functioning depression. It's not in the "DSM"—but it’s very real. And if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel empty inside, you need to hear this. We talked about a condition called anhedonia—this sneaky, silent twin of depression that robs you of joy without making you collapse. It’s the part of depression that doesn’t get seen or treated because you’re still performing, still producing, still achieving. Dr. Judith broke down how traumas, even the little ones, can rewire the way we experience joy. And more importantly, she gave a way out. You don’t have to crash to get help. You don’t have to be broken to deserve healing. This episode isn’t just about naming the problem. It’s about owning your emotional truth, slowing down, and reclaiming the simple human experiences that actually fill you. Whether you’re a high achiever constantly “doing” or someone who feels like joy is always out of reach, this one’s for you. Judith’s “5 V’s” framework gives you real tools you can use every day—like planning your joy, validating your feelings, and choosing presence over performance. And let me tell you what stood out most. Joy is contagious! It spreads. To your kids, your spouse, your team. The more we access joy, the more we model it for those around us. This conversation hit home for me—and I think it will for you too. Key Takeaways: Why anhedonia is the overlooked symptom stealing your joy. The difference between happiness (an idea) and joy (an experience). The “5 V’s” system to help reclaim joy: Validation, Venting, Values, Vitals, Vision. How trauma—big or small—can lead to high functioning depression. Tools to help yourself or someone you love who’s silently struggling. The impact of hormonal changes on mental health, especially for women. A method to ground yourself daily and reduce anxiety: the 5-4-3-2-1 technique. Let’s not wait for the crash to start healing. You deserve joy. You just forgot how to feel it.

    Who's REALLY Driving Your Life? This Story Will Make You Rethink Who’s in Control of Your Life

Visit https://growthday.com/ed. This show is sponsored by GrowthDay. Who's REALLY Driving Your Life? This story will make you rethink everything about control, identity, and the life you're building. This mashup episode is personal. It starts with me sharing a terrifying experience I had with my daughter Bella during a cab ride in Boston — a ride where we were completely out of control, at the mercy of someone else. That moment hit me hard because it wasn’t just about a crazy driver — it was a real metaphor for how many of us are living. I’m talking to you today about the reality that far too many people are sitting in the backseat of their own lives, letting fear, old stories, emotions, or even other people take the wheel. Then, I bring in a conversation with my dear friend Tony Robbins, and we talk about what it takes to truly take back control of your life. Tony reminds us that fear is physical, and courage isn’t the absence of fear — it’s doing it anyway. He breaks down how managing your emotional state and reconnecting to a compelling future changes everything. And I share what it means to build confidence by building a reputation with yourself — keeping the promises you make, even the small ones, especially the small ones. We cover the false beliefs that are holding you back — the lies that say you are your possessions, your accomplishments, what others say about you, or how you look. No, you are none of that. You are who you decide to be. I walk through the most common "cab drivers" people hand the wheel to: fear, emotions, childhood trauma, lack of belief — even imaginary opinions. But here's the truth: you and God are the only ones who should be in the driver's seat. The episode ends with real, practical steps — how to change your identity by adjusting the internal thermostat that sets the temperature for every result in your life. I break down how to use associations, immersion, and 30-day sprints to reset your beliefs. And I challenge you to do one thing: write a new story. One where you’re finally in control. Key Takeaways: - A wild Boston cab ride becomes the perfect metaphor for losing — and reclaiming — control of your life. - Why fear, emotions, and other people are the most common hidden “drivers” of your behavior. - Tony Robbins on managing your emotional state, building a compelling future, and shifting your physical state to beat fear. - How to build unshakable self-confidence by keeping promises to yourself. - The flawed beliefs that rob us of self-worth and the identity shift that changes everything. - The internal “thermostat” metaphor — and how to raise your standards in life, faith, business, and relationships. This isn’t just a motivational talk — it’s a wake-up call. If you’re ready to stop being a passenger in your life and finally grab the wheel, this one’s for you. Let’s step up, together.

  3. Change What You See, Change What You Get

    5D AGO

    Change What You See, Change What You Get

    What if you started living like life was rigged in your favor? That’s the question I want you to wrestle with today. Because the lens you look through is shaping everything — your decisions, your joy, your results. In this Solo episode, I’m walking you through the truth that most people miss: Your life isn't defined by what happens to you — it's defined by how you see it. Your filter, your expectations, and your energy are creating your reality, whether you know it or not. We talk a lot about faith, hustle, and discipline — but today, I want you to start scanning your life for favor, not fear. I share the four life lenses that are quietly running your perspective — from living through history and memory to seeing life through dreams and imagination. I’ve lived on both sides of this. I’ve filtered for pain, for setbacks, for loneliness. But when I changed the lens — when I started walking through life expecting good things to happen — things began to shift. You’ll hear me share some of the most personal insights I’ve ever dropped on this show, from how confidence bends reality, to the way your energy becomes a magnet for the people and opportunities in your life. This isn’t just about mindset. It’s about becoming the person who runs toward pressure, who trains like an underdog, and lives with the heart of a champion. You’ve already come farther than you give yourself credit for. Now it’s time to move like someone who’s meant to win. And here’s the truth — you don’t need to fit in. You’re not one of the crowd. You were made to be different. You were born to stand out. So stop waiting to be seen. See yourself. Don’t underestimate your own power another day. This episode is a reminder of who you really are and what you’re really capable of. Key Takeaways: Your expectations shape your reality more than your circumstances. There are four lenses that shape how you experience life — most of us operate unconsciously. Confidence can actually bend reality — but so can self-doubt. Energy is magnetic — you draw in what you put out. The life you want begins when you stop underestimating yourself and start believing that great things are meant for you. Focus equals expansion: what you’re looking for is what you’ll find. Train like an underdog, but think like you’re world class. You don’t need to be understood — you need to be relentless about your purpose. Max out your lens. Max out your life.   👉 SUBSCRIBE TO ED'S YOUTUBE CHANNEL NOW 👈   → → → CONNECT WITH ED MYLETT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: ← ← ←  ➡️ INSTAGRAM   ➡️FACEBOOK   ➡️ LINKEDIN   ➡️ X   ➡️ WEBSITE    Get my exclusive Monday Motivation training in GrowthDay, the world’s #1 app for advanced mindset and personal development.

  4. The 5 Types of Wealth To Design Your Dream Life with Sahil Bloom

    The 5 Types of Wealth To Design Your Dream Life with Sahil Bloom

    Are You Climbing the Right Mountain? What if the life you’re chasing isn’t the life you actually want? In this conversation, I sat down with Sahil Bloom—someone who’s not only full of wisdom well beyond his years but has the guts to question everything we’ve been told about success. You’ll hear how Sahil traded the “dream” job, the big checks, and the societal applause for a life that actually meant something to him. He’s not just talking theory—he lived this. And together, we unpack what it means to redefine wealth in a way that includes all the parts of your life that truly matter. This episode is packed with real talk about time, health, relationships, mental clarity, and yes—money. Sahil breaks down his Five Types of Wealth and gets brutally honest about why chasing only one can cost you everything else. I loved what he said: “Sometimes the things you pray for become the things you complain about, if you’re not paying attention.” That hit me hard—and I know it will hit you too. We also talk about how to actually make changes in your life. Not the fluffy stuff. Real, actionable tools—like how to schedule energy-giving activities, reframe your relationship with money, and audit your time to reflect your true values. We get into how to stay consistent with new habits, even when life is chaotic, using Sahil’s ABC system that anyone can implement today. Look, this is one of those conversations that might just shift the direction of your life. Don’t listen passively. Evaluate where you are. Take the action. Because if you’re climbing the wrong mountain fast, you’re still going the wrong way. Key Takeaways: Why financial wealth is only one part of the equation—and how to identify the other four. The concept of “anything above zero compounds” and how it reshapes consistency. Why time is your most valuable currency—and how to design more of it. The dimmer switch model for life balance (and why the on/off switch ruins your future). The Think Day ritual: how one hour of reflection can realign your life’s direction. Let this be your pause. Let this be your moment to check in. Because maybe, just maybe—you’re already living out your prayers.

    Attachment Styles EXPLAINED: Which One Are You?

In this Mashup episode, I get raw with Thais Gibson, John Kim, Christina Pazsitzky, and Dr. Marisa G. Franco as we peel back the curtain on something that shapes every relationship you’ve ever had: your attachment style. And let me tell you, this isn’t just a theory—it’s the rulebook you’ve been unknowingly using your whole life to give and receive love. For years, I believed I was great at loving others but struggled to feel love myself—and for the first time, I understood why. Thais Gibson lays the groundwork for understanding the four core attachment styles: Secure, Anxious, Dismissive Avoidant, and Fearful Avoidant. She breaks down how childhood experiences shape our subconscious patterns and shows us how we can rewire them to build healthier relationships—with others and ourselves. I shared with Thais how my upbringing with an alcoholic parent shaped my own attachment behaviors—and she nailed it. That pattern of giving love but not receiving it? Classic fearful avoidant. John Kim takes it even further. We talked about the difference between your pseudo self and your solid self—and how most of us live outside-in, searching for validation, instead of from within. I told him about the moment I realized I didn’t really know myself. Not liking yourself doesn’t start with hate—it starts with never taking time to meet you. Christina Pazsitzky brings incredible vulnerability and grit to the conversation. She opens up about growing up between a mentally ill mother and an alcoholic father, and how comedy became her survival tool. Her story is a testament to the resilience built through suffering—and why boundaries, self-awareness, and healing are the keys to reclaiming your power. Dr. Marisa Franco ties it all together, explaining how our attachment style doesn't just affect romance, but friendships and business too. If you’ve ever asked why people pull away or why connection feels out of reach—this is the truth you’ve been waiting for. Key takeaways from this episode: - What the four attachment styles are and how they shape your relationships - How your childhood patterns show up in your adult life - The difference between your “pseudo self” and “solid self” - Why so many high performers struggle to feel love even if they give it freely - Practical steps to reprogram core fears and shift to secure attachment - Why self-awareness is the foundation for deeper connection—with others and yourself - How unresolved attachment wounds sabotage your growth if left unchecked If you’re ready to stop living from patterns and start choosing your life, this episode is your wake-up call. The transformation doesn’t come from changing your partner, your job, or your situation—it starts with getting honest about you.

  6. Why Some People Succeed Faster—And How You Can Too

    Why Some People Succeed Faster—And How You Can Too

    “You’re Closer Than You Think” What if the reason you haven’t hit that next level yet… is because you're treating your goals like a hobby instead of a profession? In this episode, I’m sharing two of the most impactful success principles that separate the elite from everybody else: repetitions and deadlines. I’ve spent 30 years working with some of the best athletes, entertainers, and entrepreneurs on the planet—and I’m telling you, these two fundamentals are the quiet edge they all rely on. Whether it’s Steph Curry taking 500 shots a day, Adele putting in over 2,400 hours of rehearsal before her Vegas residency, or Tiger Woods grinding on the range for 10 hours a day—greatness isn't random. It’s repetitive. It’s intentional. And it’s scheduled. Most people don’t have a “talent” problem—they have a rep problem. And they’ve trained their brain to tolerate procrastination because they never assign a deadline to what matters. In this episode, I break down how high performers lock in success before anyone’s watching—when it’s quiet, when it’s boring, and when no one’s clapping. Your standard isn’t how good you are on your best day. It’s how consistent you are when you're tired, stressed, or distracted. You don’t separate yourself during the performance—you do it in the preparation. This episode will challenge you to raise the bar on your reps, sharpen your focus with deadlines, and finally own your craft like the pro you were born to be. Key Takeaways: Why reps matter more than raw talent How Steph Curry, Tiger Woods, and Adele stay elite The three stages of mastery: Awkward, Mechanical, Natural The real reason your brain avoids deadlines—and how to flip the script How to activate your subconscious and unconscious mind to work in your favor Why pressure is a privilege and how to use it to your advantage It’s not miles away. You’re one rep, one deadline, one decision closer than you think. Let's get you moving.

    Navy SEAL’s Guide to Mastering Uncertainty with Rich Diviney

    What If You Could Train Your Brain to Thrive in Chaos? Let’s face it—life doesn’t always go according to plan. And if you’re like most people, uncertainty can feel like quicksand. That’s why I brought Rich Diviney back on the show. He’s a former Navy SEAL, a brilliant thinker, and one of the most practical minds I’ve ever met when it comes to performance under pressure. In this conversation, we don’t just talk about facing fear—we talk about how to operate at your best when everything around you is unclear. Rich breaks down what he calls the Uncertainty Method, a six-part framework designed to help you stay calm, focused, and effective when the stakes are high. We get into how your brain actually responds to stress, how to manage your energy like a pro, and why picking the right "horizon"—your next small target—is the difference between quitting and making it through. This isn’t theory. It’s real-life application that I’ve used in my own life, and I promise you, it works. There’s a moment where Rich explains the power of asking better questions—how a single shift in language can literally change your brain’s chemistry. Instead of asking, “Why does this always happen to me?” what if you asked, “What can I do right now to move forward?” These aren’t just mindset tricks. These are tactical tools that can help you lead better, parent better, and live with more clarity in uncertain times. And I loved how we ended the show—talking about identity, leadership, and why the best teams don’t follow one leader… they shift leadership based on who’s best equipped to lead in the moment. That’s how you build trust. That’s how you build results. Key Takeaways: The difference between peak and optimal performance—and why optimal wins over time A 6-part method to stay grounded and productive in uncertain, high-stress environments How to use breathing and language to rewire your nervous system on demand Why chunking your goals into manageable “horizons” helps you avoid overwhelm The four elements that create trust on any team: competence, consistency, character, and compassion This episode is loaded with wisdom you can use the moment you stop listening. Rich doesn’t just talk about resilience—he lives it. And after this conversation, you’ll be able to say the same.

    How To Make Time For The Things That Matter MOST

In this special mashup episode, I brought together two of my closest brothers—Brendon Burchard and Dave “Heavy D” Sparks—to unpack the real strategies high performers use to make time for the things that actually matter. And I’m not talking theory—I’m talking about what we’re doing right now in the middle of our own crazy schedules. Brendon and I are both in the thick of it—back-to-back talks, travel, building companies, families, friendships. You name it. But we still find a way to show up, stay in control, and protect what’s most important. We share the real stuff here: managing emotional bandwidth, setting expectations with your family, compressing time, and why you need to schedule your rest like it's a meeting with your biggest investor. Heavy D jumps in with a powerful reminder—not everything has to change overnight. Start with what resonates. One principle at a time. That’s how you build momentum without burning out. And we don’t shy away from the hard conversations—like learning how to say no, taking ruthless inventory of your schedule, and teaching people how to engage with your time. I also share one of the most life-changing ideas I’ve ever implemented: the six-hour day. Yeah, I run three days in one. If you're still operating on a 24-hour mindset, you're already behind. And we wrap this up by talking about how your energy, your faith, and your perspective are the most critical assets you have in a busy season. You don’t have to do this—you get to. Key takeaways from this episode: - How Brendon Burchard structures communication during intense seasons to protect relationships and energy - Why setting emotional expectations with your family and team is a leadership skill - Ed’s three-day method: shrinking a 24-hour day into three 6-hour blocks - How to create leverage by eliminating, delegating, and shortening tasks - The importance of scheduling rest and treating it like high-value time - How to stay spiritually grounded when life is moving fast - Why your mess might be the thing that qualifies you to change someone else’s life - The mindset shift from “I have to” to “I get to”—and how that changes everything - Fitness and hydration as non-negotiables for sustainable energy - How to be the power plant in every room you walk into This one’s packed with real talk, real strategy, and a whole lot of heart. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, this is the reset you didn’t know you needed. Let’s get after it.
