I Have an Announcement

I’m hitting pause on the usual flow of this newsletter for a quick personal announcement and something new I’ve quietly launched that means a lot to me.

In 2025, I’m leaning harder into creation—not for reach, but for resonance.

We live in a world obsessed with visibility: More followers, more likes, more noise. But I’m less interested in being seen by everyone and more interested in creating something that actually sticks with someone.

That’s why I quietly launched a podcast.

It’s called The Threshold Lab — Each episode cracks open a fundamental principle from the world of high performance and aims to transform how you think, work, and lead.

It’s not me shouting advice from a mountaintop. It’s not a Ted Talk in disguise.

It’s simply stories, principles, and questions I’m working through in real time. Short episodes. Long-lasting ideas.

If you're into simple, honest reflections that help you think deeper and perform better, this might be a show for you.

And the best part? You don’t even have to wait to listen to it!

Here are the first 5 short-form episodes (32 minutes total!):

• Episode 1 — Welcome to the Threshold Lab

• Episode 2 — Cherry Blossoms and Impermanence

• Episode 3 - Crumpled, Not Worthless

• Episode 4 — No One Drifts Into Greatness

• Episode 5 - You Get to Be the Author

If you listen and something resonates, I’d be grateful if you’d leave a rating or quick comment. It helps more than you know, and I’d love to hear what’s landing for you.

With gratitude,

ZB
