E349 | Overcoming the "I've Tried Everything" Mindset

The knot in your stomach. That flush of unease when you know you’ve fallen short of your own standards.  The only way to truly adapt and evolve is through real vulnerability—not the gentle, polished kind from TED talks, but the raw honesty that forces you to confront hard truths about yourself.  This isn’t about stepping out of your comfort zone in a clichéd way; it’s about embracing the discomfort and going to war until you’re fully transformed. Today’s guest, Kyle Holland, knows a thing or two about facing challenges head-on. As an Exercise Physiologist with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, he’s worked in some of the most demanding environments and spent 10 years with the 160th SOAR(A), a Special Operations Unit in the Army. Kyle has also trained professional athletes and MMA fighters at Mike Boyle Strength and Conditioning and worked with both the University of Iowa and Louisville’s football programs. A devoted husband and father of three, Kyle brings a grounded perspective to every topic he tackles. In this episode, Brett and Kyle dive into real talk on topics including: Taking accountability for your actions when you’re in the wrong How to turn your setbacks into springboards for grow with grace  Strategies to avoid being cut by the double-edged sword of strengths and weaknesses Why politics gets us so riled up  *Brett reveals a major life change and how he’s choosing to respond We want to thank Kyle for joining us!

Audit. It’s one of the most unsettling words in the English dictionary, carrying a connotation of fear and unease that makes people shy away from even the slightest hint of it  But, like most intimidating things, an audit becomes far less daunting once you look at it more closely. One definition of an audit is simply “a systematic review or assessment of something.” Think of it as a straightforward check-in—a moment to take stock of where you stand and where you want to go. At the end of the day, an audit is really about something we talk about time and time again: accountability. It’s a chance to be honest with ourselves about what’s working, what’s not, and how we can move forward with intention. In today’s episode, Brett guides you through practical steps to reflect, recalibrate, and get back on track before the year wraps up. If you wait until January it will be too late. Topics we’ll dive into include: Assessing your goals and determining when to pivot How to  measure growth and allow yourself grace when it’s lacking Identifying your needle movers and deciding if it’s time to double down  Letting go of the things and people who no longer serve you Constructing an immediate action plan to get started NOW If you find this episode helpful, check out our most updated FREE Self – Reflection Guide or browse through any of our other free resources!

“I’M DONE.” It’s one of the most frustrating feelings in the world.  You’ve tried everything to fix things but just can’t get through to someone.

Empty Coaching.  Words and phrases that lack teeth. “Good job! You’re getting there! I like that.” “We’ve got to get better. C’mon, step it up. That’s not what I’m looking for.” We’ve all been guilty of letting these clichés fly out of our mouths at one point or another. But do they actually help inspire change or simply fill the silence? In today’s episode, we cut through these hollow lines and explore how we, as leaders and coaches, can move beyond surface-level feedback to foster both immediate performance improvements and long-term growth..  Brett and our guest, Tex McQuilkin, get to the heart of what makes feedback impactful—what to say, when to say it, and how to become the kind of leader the world truly needs. Tex, a national-level presenter, coach, and content creator, brings his expertise as a certified strength and conditioning specialist and holds a Master’s in health behavior change. He’s led seminars in 16 countries, working with everyone from professional athletes to Navy SEALs. Today’s show is a very fun and honest conversation between two friends and colleagues on a range of topics including: Augmented feedback: the different types and how to make each one impactful The #1 tactic any coach or leader can use to improve IMMEDIATELY Shame as a motivator and our ability to harness negative emotions How treating our thoughts as “tourists” can help us defeat our negativity bias And *BONUS*: What Michael Myers can teach us about coaching We want to thank Tex for joining us! Follow him on Instagram @mcquilkin, check out his new podcast, Captains & Coaches, and catch him across the Art Of Coaching universe—whether at our live events, in our mastermind group The Coalition, or online in our digital community. The Apprenticeship - Become more socially agile with our live Leadership Training Workshop.

Our lives are not the movies.  When sudden, unpredictable events like family hardships or natural disasters strike, it can feel like we’re living in one. But more often, the changes in our stories are subtle.  The turmoil is internal, and we’re left to wrestle with our challenges quietly, on our own.  Today’s guest is no stranger to this real-life push and pull. She knows what it’s like to juggle the expectations of motherhood, navigate life transitions, and manage the chaos that comes with it all.

We’ve all heard the motivational phrase, “Failure isn’t an option.” It sounds inspiring, but is it really true?  Failure, in reality, is an option—often chosen in the form of inaction, silence, or the unwillingness to engage. How many times have you held back an idea, avoided speaking up, or let a moment pass because of the fear of judgment? Playing it safe is extremely tragic. In today’s episode, we’re diving into the cost of silence and the hidden price we pay by not putting ourselves out there. What’s really stopping us from stepping forward? And what can we do to shift from apprehension to action?  In this tough love episode, Brett takes the gloves off and gets real about: The evolutionary roots behind our fear of rejection How our ego is the true source behind our hesitation to engage Criticism, its inevitability, and how to turn it into data Harnessing pride as a shield to protect against self-devaluation Navigating the fear of success versus the fear of failure Referenced Episodes: E259 | Understanding and Overcoming Perfectionism E105 | Overcoming Imposter Phenomenon Recommended Resources: Imposter Phenomenon Manual: If you struggle with imposter phenomenon, we created a free manual that many people have found to be super-helpful.

It’s the holy grail of mental health and wellness for many people. Almost all of us, at one point or another, have chased the elusive 'work-life balance,' hoping to find the perfect harmony between our careers and personal lives. But is 'balance' really the right word? Perhaps it’s a misnomer that oversimplifies the complexity of juggling work and family. Today’s topic arose from a conversation between Brett and several of our facilitators about the push and pull that occurs between career and family. It’s a concept we all struggle with in some capacity, and in this episode, we’ll share insights from that discussion along with practical strategies for managing the demands of work and family. Tune in as we get real on a this common struggle, as we explore: The misnomer of  “balance” and how to define it for yourself How guilt influences decisions in your professional life Realigning your goals to reflect what truly matters How to recognize if the obstacle in your was is YOU - and what to do about it Put Us On Blast: We want to hear your thoughts!

“They just won’t listen. No matter how clearly I explain it, they refuse to see my side of things. It’s like talking to a brick wall." Have you ever felt like this, like you're hitting a dead end with someone who just won’t budge? Influencing people is an art, one that often requires more than just logic and facts, especially in today’s world where information has been turned into a kind of religion willing to anoint whoever can wield it more skillfully.  In today’s episode, we’ll revisit several past topics and connect the dots to reveal an alternative way to move the ball forward. Oftentimes, if we try to bull our way straight ahead, we’re met with the most resistance. In reality, an indirect route can be like finding a perfect gap in the defense—avoiding tackles and making the smoothest run toward the end zone. Topics Discussed: The necessity of understanding power dynamics and influence tactics How penetrating someone’s ring of influence can help your cause Coalition building and the true strength in numbers when voices align Invoking reciprocity and how deep-seated trust begins with giving I GET IT, NOW HOW DO I GET THIS TO WORK FOR ME? - Communication is something none of us will ever perfect, but how do you expect to get better if you don’t hold yourself accountable and do something to get better at it?

Am I a bad person? Nike’s latest ad asks this question, and the internet erupted in response. But is the real issue the ad, or what it reveals about our relationship with competition and ambition? In this episode, Brett Bartholomew delves into the controversy surrounding Nike's recent ad, featuring Willem Dafoe’s voice and a striking depiction of athletes at their most intense. While some argue the ad promotes toxic values in sports, Brett explores the nuance behind it, offering his insights as a coach, parent, and former athlete. He dissects why the ad has sparked such strong reactions and what it says about our society’s discomfort with the more competitive, driven side of human nature. Topics Discussed: The controversy surrounding the Nike ad and Willem Dafoe's voiceover. The depiction of athletes and the "dark side" of competition. The difference between respecting opponents and being hyper-competitive. The role of parents in shaping their children’s behavior. How societal issues, such as mental health and polarized reactions, influence public perception of media. Brett’s personal experiences with athletes and how they balance intensity with ethics.
