From the outside, Sarah Connolly had it all. A business, yoga classes, and a young family. But behind closed doors, she was drinking more than she wanted and it was eating away at her self-respect.

We sat down with Sarah, a grey area drinking coach who has been alcohol-free for seven years. She shares the one question that changed everything. Not “Am I drinking more than them?” But “Am I drinking too much for me?”

Sarah explains why some people can stop at one and others can’t. Hint: it has nothing to do with discipline.

We also dig into the moment Sarah knew she was done, and why she still had six more weeks of drinking first.

You’ll also hear Harvey’s plan for a drinking contract, and Sarah gives her honest take on moderation.

If you’re sober-curious, doing a booze challenge, or simply wondering if your drinking is too much for you, this episode may change how you see your next drink.

Your plan B is killing your plan A.

In this episode, we show you how to build “the dog,”, which is the mental toughness that makes you smile when life gets hard (even if you weren’t born with it).

We also cover how to spot someone with the dog, and why the people around you set your standards.

You’ll hear how four days of TV news shifted one of our mindsets, and why you can’t cherry-pick someone else’s success. We break down Tony Robbins’ PARB loop (Potential, Action, Result, Belief) and why talent is more common than drive.

You can give your time to others, build a business, and support the people around you while your own needs are never met.

In this episode, Harry singha shares what changes when he starts asking himself the questions he asks everyone else.

Harry takes us inside a childhood shaped by domestic violence and explains why he rejects the idea that he leaves home at 15 to “escape.” He shares what that day means to him, how listening to young people leads to his first workshops, and why helping others becomes such a strong part of his life.

He shares the shift from helping people because he needs to, to helping them because he wants to. For business owners and leaders who put everyone else first, his story raises a hard question about success and self-care.

We also explore courage, self-doubt, and the labels that shape what you think you can do.

Listen to the full episode for Harry’s take on personal growth, leadership, and building a life that has room for both impact and the people you love.
