Why High Performers Still Feel Stuck (And What They’re Missing) | Ben Robins (EP 150)
Sunday, 7 December, 2025
If your life looks perfect on paper but feels strangely hollow, this conversation will hit home. We sit down with coach Ben Robbins, who rose fast in a global consultancy and realized the wins felt thinner with each promotion. Instead of doubling down on hustle, he rebuilt from the inside out—trading golden handcuffs for a compelling vision of freedom, health, meaningful work, and a life lived on his terms.Ben breaks down a deceptively simple idea: most high performers don’t need to add more; they need to remove what’s untrue. He shows how hidden scripts like “I’m not good enough” quietly drive overwork, overplanning, and the constant chase for validation. Rather than pushing affirmations the nervous system doesn’t buy, he uses real evidence from your life to neutralize old stories, shifting change from intellectual to embodied. That’s where energy returns, creativity flows, and burnout loses its grip.We also reframe success through a powerful lens: goals are not a place to get to, they’re a place to come from. If you want the million, the promotion, or the freedom, who do you need to be today in how you show up, connect, and create? This shift unlocks the feeling now and, paradoxically, helps results arrive faster. Ben shares practical ways to create space—micro-pauses, fewer low-value meetings, silent walks—so your best thinking can surface. And he makes a case for lives that look “weird” to others but feel true to you, from living abroad to crafting work around conversation and impact.If you’re tired of chasing the next rung and ready to define your version of a 10 out of 10 life, this episode offers a clear path: remove, integrate, and create.
