This episode marks a full-circle moment for me. After four and a half incredible years of The Dream It, Do It Podcast, I’m stepping into something new — something that feels deeply aligned with who I am today and where I believe leadership and life are headed.
Welcome to The Modern High Performer Podcast.
In this episode, I open up about why I’m evolving, what’s next for this new season, and how the launch of The Modern High Performance Group represents more than a rebrand — it’s a transformation. This isn’t just about business growth; it’s about leading and living differently in a world that’s asking for more clarity, purpose, and humanity.
Whether you’ve been here since the early days or you’re brand new, this episode will help you reflect on your own evolution and how you want to lead yourself — and others — in the next chapter.

The Evolution: From Dream It, Do It to Modern High Performer
Over the last several years, I’ve had the honor of coaching hundreds of high-achieving professionals and teams. And I started to notice a common thread: so many people who are smart, capable, and driven were quietly struggling.
They felt spread thin, disconnected, or on autopilot — juggling so much that their success often came at the expense of joy and presence.
That realization inspired me to create The Modern High Performance Group, a coaching company built to help both individuals and organizations thrive — not just survive — in today’s fast-paced, constantly changing world.
Why Modern High Performance Matters
High performance is not about grinding harder or being “on” longer. It’s about doing better, higher quality work — in a way that sustains your energy, supports your relationships, and aligns with what truly matters.
In my work with mid to senior leaders, I’ve seen how the way we work spills into every other part of life. Who you are at work walks through the door at 5 p.m. If you’re running on empty, your family feels it. If you’re fulfilled and focused, your energy carries home in a much better way.
This is what organizational psychologists call positive spillover — the idea that when you thrive professionally, it naturally enhances your life outside of work.
That’s what modern high performance is all about: driving results while protecting your well-being, your values, and your relationships.
The Future of Leadership Is Human
We’re leading in a world that’s changing faster than ever — fueled by AI, technology, constant information, and increasing pressure to keep up. But in this new era, the leaders who will thrive aren’t the ones who hustle harder. They’re the ones who lead more humanly.
The next generation of leadership demands:
- Emotional intelligence over ego
- Connection over control
- Clarity over chaos
Gen Z is already modeling this shift — they’re prioritizing purpose, wellbeing, and impact. The “good old boys” model of leadership that many of us grew up with doesn’t work anymore. The future belongs to those who can combine results with empathy, strategy with authenticity, and technology with humanity.
Building The Modern High Performance Group
This new chapter represents my vision for what’s possible when people and businesses rise together. The Modern High Performance Group will:
- Coach individual leaders to elevate their energy, clarity, and purpose
- Partner with organizations to create workplaces where people perform at their best without burning out
- Facilitate team effectiveness programs that drive engagement, collaboration, and wellbeing
We’re here to help leaders get out of defense mode — constantly reacting and catching up — and into offense mode: leading with vision, confidence, and calm.
It’s not about squeezing more from people. It’s about unlocking them.
A Call to Lead Differently
If you’ve ever felt like there has to be a better way to work and live — one that feels more meaningful, more sustainable, and more alive — this movement is for you.
Modern high performance isn’t about grinding yourself down; it’s about becoming sharper, more grounded, and more human in the process.

Final Thoughts
This episode is more than an announcement — it’s an invitation. An invitation to rise above the noise, to bring more of who you are to your work, and to redefine what success looks like in this modern world.
The future of work is human. And it starts with us.
