Description

January optimism fades fast.
Goals wobble. Energy drops. And that familiar voice shows up: “I should be further along by now.”

In this episode, Dex explores why high-achieving leaders often get stuck leading from the Gap — measuring themselves against a moving ideal — and how shifting to the Gain changes performance, energy, and impact without relying on willpower.

This is a grounded conversation about leadership, not a hype-up.

In this episode

• What “the Gap” is and why high performers live there
• How self-criticism quietly drains leadership energy
• What “the Gain” looks like in real leadership, not theory
• Why progress fuels motivation better than pressure
• Simple ways to refocus when the Gap shows up at work

Who this is for

Leaders and professionals who are capable, driven, and respected — yet tired of being hard on themselves as a performance strategy.
