Feeling Stuck? The Hidden Danger of a 'Good Enough' Life #673
Sun Feb 01 2026
Message me your 'Takeaways'.
The most dangerous trap isn't failure—it's success that's just good enough.
In this episode, I break down what I call The Comfort Trap: the silent erosion that happens when life isn't bad enough to change, but isn't good enough to feel alive. I share my own story of walking away from six years of business to move to Nashville, the internal battle I faced, and the one question that changed everything.
If you've ever woken up asking "Is this all there is?" even though your life looks good on paper—this episode is for you.
WHAT WE COVER:
• What The Comfort Trap actually is (and why it's more dangerous than failure)
• The 3 stages of erosion most men don't see coming
• Warning signs you're stuck in The Comfort Trap
• The question that helped me decide to take the leap
• How The Comfort Trap connects to Clear Purpose in my Core 4 framework
• The Resilience Loop: practical steps to escape
