Ep 045: The Hidden Cost of the Hustle: What Every High-Achieving Man Must Know with Lee Povey

High-performance coach Lee Povey joins host Mitchell Osmond for a powerful conversation on the real challenges modern men face behind closed doors—loneliness, burnout, emotional disconnection, and identity struggles. Drawing from his journey, Lee opens up about growing up with a narcissistic father, navigating his adult life with undiagnosed autism and dyslexia, and ultimately discovering the transformative power of male connection and mentorship. This episode challenges the myths of “self-made success” and the grind culture that isolates men in pursuing greatness. Instead, it offers a radically different path: one built on emotional intelligence, intentional relationships, and redefining fulfillment—not as a destination, but as something found in presence, vulnerability, and purpose. If you’ve ever felt like your drive for success has come at a personal cost, this episode is your invitation to reset, reconnect, and rebuild from the inside out.
