I’ve released 28 episodes of Bad Day Excellence, and honestly I didn’t think I’d make it this far.
In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what I’ve learned about fear, consistency, identity, failure, resilience, and most importantly, the power of habit.
You’ll hear:
The fears I had before launching this show (and how I beat them)
Why consistency matters more than confidence
How I built a simple system to create weekly content with ADHD and a full-time job
What perfectionism really is (spoiler: it’s procrastination in disguise)
The tech failure that almost derailed me
The joy I’ve found in creating
And the biggest lesson of all: people connect with you when you show up
Whether you’re chasing a passion project, trying to find clarity, or just need proof that progress is possible—this one’s for you.
🎯 Weekly Challenge: Post ONE piece of content this week—just to get started. Doesn’t need to be perfect. Just needs to be real.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
