Nick Jonsson on The Super Human Life with Frank Rich
The ONE THING Every High-Performing Man Is Afraid to Admit
I recently had the opportunity to join Frank Rich on his widely followed podcast, The Super Human Life, which reaches over 100,000 monthly listeners and ranks among the Top 50 Men’s Health & Personal Development podcasts in the world.
🎧 Episode Title: The ONE THING Every High-Performing Man Is Afraid to Admit
📍 Episode 289
In this conversation, we went beyond surface-level success to uncover the emotional struggles that many men in leadership positions face but rarely speak about—especially those who are seen as "high performers."
We talked openly about burnout, imposter syndrome, emotional isolation, and why the pressure to appear in control often prevents us from seeking the support we need. I shared my own journey—what I’ve experienced as a leader, what I’ve learned as an executive coach, and why I believe authenticity and vulnerability are not weaknesses, but essential strengths in today’s leadership landscape.
This episode is for every man who's ever felt like he's silently drowning while outwardly "winning." It’s a reminder that you’re not alone, and that reaching out, speaking up, and letting go of the mask can be the first steps toward real transformation.
If you're a leader, entrepreneur, or executive trying to do it all—this conversation might just shift your perspective.
