THE ED MYLETT SHOW

What if the story you’re stuck in isn’t who you are… it’s just who you’ve been?

In this conversation, I sit down with Jordan Belfort "The Real Wolf of Wall St", and I’ll tell you right now, this is not the interview you’re expecting. Most people know Jordan for one chapter of his life, but today we go way deeper. We talk about identity, values, and what it really takes to rewrite your story when the world keeps trying to define you by your past. And what hit me the most is this. He didn’t have to become someone new. He had to rediscover who he was before everything went off track. That is a powerful lesson for every single one of us. Ed Mylett

We also get into the truth about money, success, and the tradeoffs nobody talks about. There is a point in your life where chasing the next level has a cost, and you better start asking yourself if it is worth it. Jordan opens up about choosing ethics over easy money, even when it cost him millions. That kind of discipline and clarity is rare. We talk about building a life that is not just successful on paper, but one that actually feels right when you wake up every day.

Then we shift into something every entrepreneur and salesperson needs to hear. This is a masterclass in communication and persuasion. Jordan breaks down what really makes someone influential. It is not manipulation. It is understanding people, asking better questions, mastering tonality, and building real trust. If you have ever wondered why some people instantly connect and others don’t, this part of the conversation alone is worth listening to twice.

And we go into the future. AI, business, and what is coming next. Jordan is deep in the AI world right now, and what he shares about where things are headed will open your eyes. Some jobs will disappear. New ones will be created. But the people who win are the ones who adapt, who learn, and who stay ahead of the curve. The lesson is simple. If you do not disrupt yourself, someone else will.

This episode is about ownership. Ownership of your story, your skills, your future, and your standards. If you are ready to stop living in your past and start building what is next, this one is for you.

Key Takeaways:

Why your past does not define you and how to rewrite your identity

The difference between chasing money and building a meaningful life

The real truth about ethical selling and influencing people the right way

How tonality, presence, and communication determine your success

Why becoming an expert is a decision, not a timeline

The future of AI and what it means for sales, business, and entrepreneurship

Why you must disrupt yourself before the world does it for you

What if the real reason you’re not where you want to be isn’t a lack of talent… but the habits, thoughts, and standards you’ve been tolerating?

In this mashup episode, I’m bringing together some of the most powerful minds in personal development and performance to challenge the way you think about growth, discipline, and what it actually takes to win in your life. You’re going to hear from Eric Thomas, James Clear, Jim Kwik, Alan Stein Jr., David A. Arnold, and Jay Shetty as we break down the hidden patterns that either elevate you or quietly destroy your potential.

Eric Thomas brings the fire and reminds you that average effort will always produce average results, and that your level of commitment is the ultimate separator. James Clear simplifies success in a way that will change how you approach your daily habits and routines. Jim Kwik shows you how your brain is your greatest asset and how unlocking it can accelerate everything in your life. And Alan Stein Jr. gives you the discipline and standards required to perform at an elite level when it matters most.

But this episode is not just about performance. David A. Arnold and Jay Shetty take us deeper into the human side of growth. They talk about self-awareness, identity, and the internal conversations that shape your reality. Because the truth is, your external results will never outperform your internal belief system. If you don’t fix what’s going on inside, nothing outside will ever fully work.

Throughout this entire conversation, I keep coming back to one principle that I believe with everything in me. Awareness is power. Once you become aware of what’s holding you back, whether it’s your habits, your mindset, or the standards you’re accepting, you can finally take control and start making changes that actually stick . This is about raising your identity, raising your standards, and becoming the person your dreams require.

Key Takeaways:

Why your daily habits are either building your dream or silently destroying it

The difference between being interested and being truly committed to your goals

How to reprogram your mind to work for you instead of against you

Why discipline and standards matter more than motivation

The hidden role self-awareness plays in long term success

How your identity shapes every result you get in life

The simple shifts that separate high performers from everyone else

I want you to walk away from this episode with one question in your mind. Are your current habits, thoughts, and actions aligned with the life you say you want? If the answer is no, then today is your opportunity to change that. You don’t need more time. You need more intention. Let’s get to work.

What if the reason you feel unfulfilled isn’t because you’re failing… but because you’ve been chasing the wrong definition of success?

In this conversation with Arthur Brooks, we go deep on something that hits every single one of us at some point in our lives. I told Arthur right at the beginning that when he was last on the show, even my closest friends called me about it and that never happens. That tells you the level this conversation is about to hit. This time, we go even further. We talk about the quiet feeling so many people have right now that something is off, even when life looks good on the outside. Arthur calls it a meaning crisis, and once you hear it explained, you are going to recognize it immediately in your own life.

One of the most powerful parts of this episode is when Arthur breaks down the three components of meaning. He explains that if you do not have coherence, purpose, and significance, you will feel lost no matter how successful you become. I opened up about how even with achievement, wealth, and a great family, there are still moments where you ask yourself if any of it really matters. That is the gap so many high performers are living in right now. We also get real about why external success can actually make you more unhappy if you have not done the internal work. That part is going to hit a lot of you hard because you know it is true.

We also go into something that honestly changed the way I think about pain. Arthur shares that suffering is not something to avoid, it is something to learn from. He explains that the problem is not the pain itself, it is our resistance to it. When you stop resisting and start learning, suffering becomes one of the greatest teachers in your life. We talk about faith, we talk about growth, and we talk about how the hardest seasons of your life may actually be the ones that give your life the most meaning.

Then we shift into the world we are all living in right now and this part is eye opening. Arthur breaks down how we are living in what is essentially a modern version of a simulation, constantly on our devices, stuck in the wrong part of our brain, disconnected from real relationships and real meaning. We talk about why busyness is often just a distraction from doing the deeper work and how boredom, silence, and reflection are actually required if you want to find clarity in your life. This is not theory. This is practical, actionable truth that you can start applying immediately.

This episode is about doing the work. It is about getting honest with yourself, stepping out of the noise, and reconnecting with what actually matters. If you have been feeling stuck, restless, or like something is missing, this conversation is going to give you language for it and more importantly, a path forward. Arthur said it best. The meaning of life is not something you find by accident. It is something you build through how you live, who you serve, and how you love.

Key Takeaways:

The three essential components of meaning and why most people are missing at least one

Why external success without internal work leads to emptiness

How suffering can become your greatest teacher if you stop resisting it

The hidden danger of living in a digital, simulated world and how it disconnects you from meaning

Why service and deep relationships are the fastest path to fulfillment

How busyness is often masking a lack of self reflection and what to do about it

What if the real reason you’re stuck isn’t a lack of talent… but the invisible patterns controlling your decisions, your confidence, and your ability to take action?

In this mashup episode, I’m bringing together some of the most powerful minds on behavior, influence, discipline, and self-awareness to help you break through what’s really been holding you back. You’re going to hear from Zoe Chance, Trent Shelton, Alex Hormozi, and Dean Graziosi as we unpack the hidden forces that shape your life. And I’ll tell you this right now, most people are not losing because they don’t know what to do. They’re losing because something internal is quietly sabotaging their execution.

Zoe Chance breaks down the psychology of influence and why so many of us struggle to ask for what we want, whether that’s in business, relationships, or life. Trent Shelton brings the truth about self-worth and discipline, reminding you that your standards determine your results. Alex Hormozi gets tactical and real about what it actually takes to win, why excuses are costing you everything, and how to build leverage through action. And Dean Graziosi shares how shifting your mindset and identity can unlock opportunities that have been sitting right in front of you the entire time.

One of the biggest themes in this episode is awareness. Because once you become aware of what’s holding you back, it begins to lose its power over you . Whether it’s discouragement, fear, comparison, or the need for approval, these silent killers are showing up in your life every single day. And if you don’t identify them, they will keep you stuck in the same patterns, the same results, and the same frustration. But the moment you see them clearly, you can start to take your power back.

We also dive into the dangerous habits that rob you of happiness and momentum, especially comparison. When you compare your life to others or even to your past, you create unnecessary dissatisfaction and stall your growth . The truth is, your path is your path. And the faster you own it, the faster you can build something meaningful, impactful, and truly yours.

This episode is about taking control again. It’s about raising your standards, getting honest about where you are, and deciding that you are no longer going to let these hidden forces run your life. You don’t need more information. You need more awareness, more discipline, and more intentional action. That’s how you separate. That’s how you win.

Key Takeaways:

Why awareness is the first step to breaking any limiting pattern in your life

How discouragement, fear, and doubt quietly steal your dreams if left unchecked

Zoe Chance’s insight on why asking boldly is a skill that changes everything

Trent Shelton’s truth about discipline and raising your personal standards

Alex Hormozi’s no-excuses framework for executing at a high level

Dean Graziosi’s mindset shifts that unlock opportunity and growth

How comparison creates unhappiness and slows your momentum

The importance of taking ownership and controlling your internal state

What if your thoughts aren’t the problem… but the state your body is in is controlling everything?

In this conversation, I sat down with Dr. Stephen Porges, and I’m telling you right now, this one stretched me. Not just intellectually, but personally. Because what Dr. Porges reveals is something most of us have never been taught. Your life is not just driven by mindset or motivation. It is driven by your physiological state. And if you don’t understand that, you could spend your entire life trying to “think” your way out of something your body is actually controlling.

We get into his groundbreaking work on the nervous system, the vagus nerve, and what he calls neuroception. That is your body’s ability to detect safety or danger without you even being aware of it. And here is the truth that hit me hard. If your body does not feel safe, it will not give you permission to feel joy, connection, or even perform at your best. That explains why so many high achievers still feel anxious, disconnected, or stuck even when everything on the outside looks successful.

Dr. Porges breaks down trauma in a way I have never heard before. It is not just something that happened to you. It is something your nervous system holds onto because it is trying to protect you. And here is the key. The path forward is not just mindset work. It is learning how to work with your body. Becoming aware of it. Honoring it. And learning how to regulate it so you can actually change your experience of life.

We also talked about leadership, parenting, and relationships. And this was a big realization for me. People perform better when they feel safe. Not when they feel pressure or fear. If you are leading a team, raising a family, or even working on yourself, your ability to create safety might be the most important skill you can develop. Because when people feel safe, they open up, they grow, and they become the best version of themselves.

This episode is not surface level. It is a deep dive into understanding you. But if you stay with it, I promise you this. You will never look at your emotions, your stress, or your behavior the same way again.

Key Takeaways:

Your physiological state is the foundation of your thoughts, emotions, and behavior

If your body does not feel safe, it will block connection, joy, and peak performance

Trauma is not just an event, it is a pattern your nervous system holds onto

You cannot think your way out of a state your body is creating

True growth comes from learning to regulate and understand your body, not fight it

The best leaders and parents create safety, not pressure

This episode is not surface level. It is a deep dive into understanding you. But if you stay with it, I promise you this. You will never look at your emotions, your stress, or your behavior the same way again.
