You're one question away from a completely different life.

But most engineers stay stuck… because they're asking the wrong ones.

Zach sits down with Mark to unpack what happens when a big vision collapses—after building an app that reached millions, he had to delete it and start over. They break down how fear, burnout, and mental fog take over in those moments—and how asking better questions, building simple mental fitness practices, and creating space to think clearly can pull you back into momentum and direction as a leader.

You'll learn:

Why the questions you ask determine your career direction How to clear mental fog so you can think and lead effectively Simple daily practices to build clarity without adding more work How to trust intuition when making high-stakes career decisions
