If working harder was the answer, wouldn’t you already have everything you want?

The best leaders, top performers, and elite athletes all have one thing in common… they know when to quit.

What if working harder is actually holding you back?

We’ve been sold the idea that success comes from grinding, hustling, and doing more. But what if the real secret is knowing when to do less?

Sounds counterintuitive, right?

But that’s exactly what executive coach and author, Nathan Tanner, discovered after navigating some of the biggest challenges imaginable— like the collapse of Lehman Brothers (yep, that financial disaster) and the chaos of scaling DoorDash from 250 to 5,000 employees.

Nathan isn’t just another productivity guru preaching “work smarter, not harder.” He’s lived it.

From training for an Ironman while balancing a demanding career to learning the hard way that trying to be great at everything is the fastest way to fail at what actually matters, Nathan shares how strategic underperformance might be the key to unlocking your next level of success.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in the endless cycle of doing more but achieving less, this episode is your wake-up call.

Press play now and let’s rethink success before you waste another year chasing the wrong things.
