In this episode, Cody McBroom sits down with Rich Diviney, retired Navy SEAL Commander and bestselling author of The Attributes and Masters of Uncertainty, for a deep and tactical conversation on mental resilience, elite performance, and thriving in high-stress environments.
With 20+ years in the SEAL Teams, 13 deployments, and a legacy of helping operators sharpen their mental and emotional edge, Rich shares insights on:
- What truly separates high performers in uncertain, chaotic conditions
- Why grit, drive, and mental acuity matter more than skillsets under pressure
- How to identify and develop your core attributes (and why they’re different from skills)
- The 3 paths to mastering uncertainty: mastering your abilities, yourself, and the unknown
- Why understanding identity and self-awareness is critical for navigating transitions
- The neuroscience behind motivation, dopamine, and resilience
- How to “Choose Hard” in daily life to forge lasting personal growth
Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, or someone striving to become more adaptable, focused, and disciplined—this conversation offers a blueprint for building elite-level mental strength.
