What if the biggest obstacle to your success wasn’t external, but internal? In this episode, high-performance coach Dovid Azerad joins us to talk about personal agency, leadership, and mindset mastery.
Dovid’s background as an educator and school administrator gave him deep insight into human behavior, motivation, and the way people either claim control or give it away. Now, he helps professionals, especially new C-suite leaders, navigate self-doubt, decision-making, and high-stakes leadership roles.
We discuss why so many people feel stuck in life or business, how to break free from limiting beliefs, and why curiosity is the most powerful tool for transformation. If you're looking for a mindset shift that will help you take action and own your success, this episode is for you.
Here are some key takeaways from today’s conversation:
00:00 - Introduction 02:45 - How Dovid went from education to coaching 07:00 - Why people lose personal agency (and how to reclaim it) 14:00 - The power of curiosity in business and life 22:00 - Handling skepticism, doubt, and imposter syndrome 31:15 - Fear of failure vs. fear of success 39:00 - Building confidence and resilience 45:00 - Dovid’s advice for new leaders in high-pressure roles
Through years of coaching and leadership, Dovid has found that confidence isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you build. He shares how to cultivate self-trust and resilience through mindset shifts and strategic action.
