In this episode, Mark sits down with thought leader and entrepreneur Kaylor Betts for a raw and liberating conversation about fear, authenticity, and the courage to live boldly. Together, they unpack how facing our deepest fears—whether in relationships, business, or self-expression—can actually become the gateway to freedom, healing, and purpose. Kaylor shares his own story of stepping into truth during the chaos of the pandemic, the backlash and breakthroughs that followed, and how embracing discomfort became the foundation of his thriving business and mission. This is a powerful dialogue on breaking free from self-abandonment, navigating criticism with integrity, and learning to build a life and business rooted in authenticity and resilience—you won’t want to miss it.
Kaylor Betts is a powerhouse life and business coach, no-BS truth-teller, and host of the top 1% podcast Awake & Winning. Once burdened by fatigue, illness, financial struggle, and systems designed to keep people small, he broke free, rebuilt his body and mind, and built a thriving business on his own terms. Today, he leads a movement that challenges the status quo, urging people to think critically, take radical responsibility, and reclaim their sovereignty. Through raw coaching, unfiltered conversations, and real-world strategies, Kaylor equips others to break free from limitations and build lives where they win in body, mind, home, and business—living unapologetically, ungovernably, and on their own terms.

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.
