Jerry Colonna is the co-founder and CEO of the coaching company Reboot, a former venture capitalist known as the CEO Whisperer, and the author of Reboot and Reunion.

Jerry Colonna believes that growing up is the real work of leadership, and that most of us spend years hiding the parts of ourselves we cut off to fit in. In this conversation, we explore the three months he spent behind a locked psychiatric door at 18, the chip on the shoulder that carried him from Brooklyn to the top of venture capital, the February morning in 2002 when the demons finally caught him, how meditation has allowed him to greet his demons as old friends, the question his therapist gave him that he still asks every client, and how Hulk and Thor turn out to be the same anger pointed in different directions. At the end of the day, what matters is what matters. #personaldevelopment #selfimprovement #leadership #mentalhealth #meditation #journaling

Leif Babin is a former Navy SEAL officer who led a platoon in Task Unit Bruiser during the Battle of Ramadi, co-author of Extreme Ownership, and co-founder of the leadership company Echelon Front.

Leif Babin believes the greatest excuse any of us give ourselves is that it is harder for us than it is for other people. In this conversation, we explore the two rejections before he ever became a Navy SEAL, what Hell Week is actually for, the friendly fire operation in Ramadi that Jocko Willink did not want to put in their book, the brave men who did not come home, and why taking ownership of everything in your life is humbling but liberating. Everything is your fault at the end, and that is where freedom begins. #leadership #extremeownership #personaldevelopment #selfimprovement #resilience #faith

Dr. W. Lee Warren is a practicing neurosurgeon, Iraq War veteran and New York Times bestselling author whose latest book, The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery, teaches how to put your mind in charge of your brain.

Dr. Lee Warren believes your mind and your brain are not the same thing, and that the moment you understand which one is in charge, your mental health can get better instead of worse. In this conversation, we explore what a functional MRI reveals about a single thought, the day in the scanner that changed how he grieved losing his son, why self-help is not self-reliance, what neuroplasticity does whether or not you direct it, how faith measurably changes the brain, the trunk of war memories he left in his garage for five years, why two things can be true at the same time, and the danger of making an idol out of your pain. You are not stuck with the brain you have.
