EFX Sports President, Brian Andrews sits down with CJ and Aaron to break down how champions think and execute - without fluff. You’ll learn the 4 D’s that drive real progress (Deadlines, Discipline, Discomfort, Dedication), how to reframe failure so it fuels you, and why the fear of success quietly stalls more careers than fear of failure. We close with a practical health/fitness segment: simple daily levers for founders plus a clear explanation of carb timing and glycogen for steady energy without the crash.

What you’ll learn:
The “potential × progress” lens champions use to win repeatedly
A step-by-step way to manufacture momentum with the 4 D’s
How to turn failure into “fertilizer” (and spot fear of success)
Health basics for busy builders (sleep, movement, hydration)
“Fast in, smooth out” carbs: how to fuel lifts & endurance
