In this episode, Kyle unpacks the tension so many of us feel between who we are and what we do. From titles and paychecks to cars, clothes, and neighborhoods, it’s easy to let our identity get tied to performance and possessions. But what happens when all of that disappears?
Kyle shares his personal journey of navigating career transitions, hitting rock bottom, and rebuilding with accountability. He reflects on the identity crisis that came when leaving leadership, the pressure to keep up in a success-driven culture, and the deeper questions of legacy, meaning, and self-worth.
If you’ve ever felt “behind,” defined by your role, or unsure of who you are outside of what you produce, this episode is for you. Walk away with a reminder that your worth was never meant to be measured by money or titles, but by the values you live out and the legacy you leave.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
