In this episode of the Habits of High Performers Podcast, I sit down with Hal Elrod, the creator of The Miracle Morning, to unpack the habits, mindset, and personal responsibility that shape extraordinary lives.
Hal shares the life defining moments that forged his philosophy, from being declared dead after a high speed car crash, to rebuilding his body, career, and identity from the ground up. We explore stoicism in action, radical acceptance, and why daily personal development is not optional if you want sustained success.
This conversation is about far more than morning routines. It’s about agency, resilience, and choosing who you become when life does not go to plan.
If you want a simple, proven framework to upgrade your mindset, habits, and performance without burning out, this episode will give you both the philosophy and the practical tools to start.
