Hard Reset with Jeuse Kastoan

Sometimes the silence after your biggest wins is louder than the moment itself. In this episode, I talk about what it’s like to grow, heal, or level up — and realize nobody’s clapping for you.

No applause. No validation. Just you and the next step.

I share how I learned to keep going without the praise, how to find meaning in the work itself, and why the people who stay quiet when you shine were never rooting for you in the first pla...

Growth isn’t always loud — sometimes it happens in silence. In this episode, I talk about who I used to be, who I’ve become, and the version of me I had to leave behind to survive.

I break down how change shows up in your mindset, your movement, your relationships — and why some people can’t handle your evolution. I’m not here to prove anything to the past. I’m here to protect the person I’m becoming.

If you’ve ever outgrown your old...

Sometimes being the strong one means being the quiet one.

You hold it together. You carry the weight. You don’t complain. You just keep going.

In this episode, I talk about the pressure of always showing up, even when you’re drained. I open up about the emotional cost of being the one everyone leans on — and how it feels when no one ever checks if you’re okay.

This one’s for the ones who break in silence, heal in secret, and still sho...

In this episode, I talk about the two times I quit — for real.

Not just taking a break. I mean walk-away, leave-it-all-behind type of quitting.

I open up about what pushed me there, what it felt like, and how I found the strength to come back — not just to the work, but to myself.

I also speak for the first time on my schizophrenia diagnosis, and how I’ve had to rebuild my life and identity while managing something that most people do...

I wasn’t just lost in my career—I was kicked out of my moms home.

Kicked out of my home, no plan, no roadmap, and too much pride to ask for help.

This episode isn’t about strategy—it’s about survival, and the pressure to perform when you’re barely holding it together.

If you’ve ever had to pretend like everything was fine just to function, this one’s for you.

Key themes: survival mode, homelessness, resilience, starting from nothin...

Some jobs drain more than your time — they drain your spirit.

In this episode, I talk about the jobs that made me question my worth, my purpose, and whether I’d ever get out.

I open up about clocking in while burned out, working through pain, and what it felt like to be overlooked in places I gave everything to. But I also talk about what those jobs taught me — and how they built the discipline I needed to bet on myself.

This one’s fo...

It’s hard to love people when you’re still trying to love yourself.

It’s even harder to lead, parent, or show up when you don’t feel whole.

In this episode, I open up about what it’s like to be in a relationship — or raise a family — while you’re still healing, growing, and trying to figure out who you really are. I talk about mistakes I’ve made, lessons I’m still learning, and how I’ve started giving myself grace in the process.

If y...

There comes a point when you realize no one’s going to hand you the life you want — and that moment either breaks you or builds you.

In this episode, I talk about what changed when I stopped waiting on a co-sign, a connection, or a lucky break. I break down the mental shift from hoping to owning your path, and how I started moving different when I understood the world doesn’t owe me anything.

This one’s for anybody waiting for help t...

I was working night shifts while trying to build a dream by day — and it nearly broke me.

In this episode, I talk about the jobs that drained my time, my spirit, and my identity. I open up about what it means to show up for work while your purpose waits in the passenger seat — and how I kept chasing the vision anyway.

This one’s for anybody who’s felt stuck in survival mode, still hoping for something more.

If you’ve ever worked a shi...

I wasn’t born Jeuse Kastoan. I became him.

In this episode, I open up about where the name came from — and why I needed to create a version of myself that could survive everything life threw at me. The pain. The pressure. The nights I didn’t feel like I was enough. Jeuse is who I had to become to keep going.

This is more than a name. It’s my second chance. And if you’ve ever felt like you had to rebuild yourself just to keep living —...
