Season 13, Ep. 12: Behind the Scenes with a New York Times Best Selling Author (Don Yaeger)
Manage episode 348462992 series 2954995
In today’s episode, I read between the lines with former Sports Illustrated Associate Editor and 11-time New York Times Best Selling author Don Yaeger. Don is an equally powerful leadership speaker and host of the Corporate Competitor Podcast. His sports knowledge is unparalleled, and his book writing process is fascinating. Don has an innate ability to get people to have the courage to open up and be truly vulnerable. To say he is a master at his craft would be an understatement. I first met Don at the National Speakers Associations annual conference in 2018 and have been a huge fan ever since.
This season I’m exploring what high performers do behind the scenes. I’ve been enjoying fascinating conversations with professional stand-up comedians, magicians, actors, rappers, dancers, YouTubers, athletes, coaches, and everything in between to find out exactly what they do behind the curtain – when the cameras are off and the arenas are empty – to work towards mastery of their craft and to prepare themselves to perform at a world class level. I hope you find their insights, perspectives, and personal strategies as helpful as I do and use what they share to continue to Raise Your Game.
Thank you so much for investing your time with us. I hope we helped you Raise Your Game and provided useful insight on how you can maximize your time and effort. If you found this episode helpful, would you be open-minded to supporting the show? Would you be kind enough to share it with a friend or colleague? Would you take 30 seconds and leave us a rating and review? Those two things help support the show’s mission and message more than you know. And don’t ever forget, a candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.
Sustain Your Game teaches you how to bring your A game to every area of your life. With advice from top CEOs, journalists, social scientists, and more, you'll learn the framework for how to beat stress, stagnation, and burnout. Sustain Your Game will help you be the best in your arena, wherever that may be.
