The LAB with Bryce Prescott

"Protect your peace" is the most popular philosophy nobody is benefiting from. In this episode, Bryce delivers one of the most direct and practically grounded episodes in the series — a full-on challenge to the mantra that has taken over self-care culture. Using a gym metaphor built around a 45-pound plate, he traces exactly how avoidance compounds into fragility, why people with the richest thera...

You don't actually want certainty. You want control — and you've been calling it something more respectable for years. In this episode, Bryce connects a previous conversation on biology and hormones to one of the most pervasive and least examined patterns in high-achieving people: the craving for guaranteed outcomes before taking action. Drawing on his own cancer diagnosis, his season of delayed b...

He was backstage at a sold-out comedy show, surrounded by people and energy, and couldn't stop thinking about one question: am I hard to love? In this episode, Bryce records from inside one of his most personally vulnerable seasons — sitting with the silence between relationships, auditing his own needs, and trying to separate what's actually his from what the internet has told him he's allowed to...

Knowing that a negative emotion is a signal was never the whole answer. In this episode, Bryce closes the gap he's been aware of for some time — teaching you not just to receive the signal, but to know what to do once it arrives. Through a single, clean three-part framework — Hold the Line, Shift the Focus, Let Go — he walks through each response in detail with two personal stories: letting go of...

In this follow-up interview, Bryce sits down again with Shinia Powell, cast member of The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives, for the conversation nobody expected her to agree to a second time. Since their last talk, Shinia has stepped into a public relationship with Dakota Mortensen, found herself the middle person in a co-parenting dynamic the internet has strong opinions about, and finally addressed...

What if the problem isn’t religion, politics, biohacking, or mindset… What if the problem is you never actually committed to anything? In this episode, Bryce gives you an encore presentation of his wrestle with a question that most high performers avoid: Which system is actually true? From Mormonism to pagan symbolism, from Law of Attraction to nihilism, from grind culture to nervous system regula...

We are the most psychologically literate generation in history — and some of us are using that literacy to avoid healing faster than any generation before us. In this episode, Bryce delivers his most direct and urgent message of the series: a plea. Not to stop learning the language of trauma and attachment. To stop letting the diagnosis become the identity. Through the lens of his own separation a...

Bryce gives you an encore presentation of his discussion on the idea that most people are living inside a psychological trance — a set of beliefs and stories about their life they’ve stopped questioning. He explains how routines, identity, and perception quietly become automated, creating familiarity even when life no longer works. He introduces a powerful reframe: stop moralizing your experience...

Far too many people let their last relationship dictate their next one. In this episode, Bryce Prescott pulls on a matchmaker's TikTok line that stopped him cold and uses it to unpack one of the most common and least examined patterns in dating, relationships, and life: the difference between knowing what you don't want and knowing what you actually do. Through two members of his Lab coaching grou...

Bryce gives you an encore presentation of his discussion on the concept of psychological stolen valor — the danger of borrowing identity, authority, or credibility through proximity, environment, or appearance without earning it. Using real-world cases of stolen military valor and personal experiences with wealth, environment, and perception, Bryce exposes how upgraded surroundings can quietly rep...

Not needing someone's approval and actually receiving someone's love are the same skill pointed in two different directions. In this episode, Bryce turns 51 and notices something in the middle of being celebrated — the instinct to deflect, minimize, and joke it away before it can fully land. He catches it in real time and chooses to just receive it instead. What follows is one of the most overlook...

A comment from someone Bryce can't stand sent him into four seconds of jaw-clenched rage — and then gave him one of the clearest lessons of the series. In this episode, he traces that moment to a single skill that sits underneath almost every fight, every failed relationship, and every conflict you've never fully resolved: the ability to see yourself from outside yourself. From there, he unpacks a...

Two things happened to Bryce in the same week that looked completely unrelated — a major business opportunity and a surprise return to standup comedy. By Sunday night he realized they were the exact same lesson wearing different clothes. In this episode, Bryce unpacks both stories through a single framework: luck is the residue of preparation and motion, and it almost always arrives with discomfor...

It started with a prayer, a morning walk, and a song that crested at exactly the right moment. In this episode, Bryce shares a deeply personal and emotionally charged experience — a moment on a hill in his neighborhood where the music, the landscape, and the words, "look up" arrived all at once and broke him open. From that moment, he builds a simple but foundational challenge: where in your life...

Bryce gives you an encore presentation of his discussion on the impact of decision-making on personal well-being. He emphasizes that indecision leads to "decision fatigue," draining energy and motivation. He explains that the brain dislikes open loops, constantly processing unresolved issues. He also argues that making a decision, even a wrong one, is more beneficial than delaying. He concludes th...

Emotional intelligence tells you what's driving you. Honesty lets you admit it. Accountability makes you own it. None of that explains why the behavior keeps happening anyway. In this episode, Bryce introduces incentive as the missing fourth piece — the actual current reason a behavior is still worth repeating, separate from its backstory. Using a small, unflattering moment of his own — catching h...

The message men keep hearing is reach out when you're struggling. The problem is it assumes the infrastructure is already there. In this episode, recorded during Men's Mental Health Month, Bryce makes the case that the male loneliness epidemic isn't a crisis response problem — it's a maintenance problem. He traces the exact path from getting focused and protecting your time to waking up one day wi...

He woke up depressed, cried alone on a Sunday, and almost let the day be a loss. By Monday morning, he was back in visualization mode — clear, energized, and building. In this episode, Bryce walks through exactly what happened in those 24 hours and why it wasn't a setback. It was a diagnosis. Using the formula that runs through the entire series — Diagnosis plus Integration equals Transformation —...

You cannot build a life you haven't allowed yourself to want. In this unscripted, stream-of-consciousness episode, Bryce walks through the story of a house — an $8 million Scottsdale property that appeared in a visualization a decade ago and reappeared on his neighborhood walk — as the entry point into one of his most practical and provocative conversations yet. The real subject is specificity of...

Who were you performing for — and what's left when the audience is gone? In this episode, Bryce delivers one of the most searching and unexpectedly hopeful episodes in the series. Still inside the quiet of his separation, he confronts the fear that he spent everything on a life that didn't work and has nothing left to build with. Then he dismantles it. Drawing on the buffer, the sponsoring thought...

There's no lesson here. No framework. No triumphant ending. Just the truth of what it actually feels like to be between lives. In this episode, Bryce Prescott records from inside the quiet of his first month of separation — not from a place of clarity, but from inside the disorientation. He speaks about emotional homelessness, the fear that it's too late, the unconscious walls he can feel himself...

She was memed, dragged, and misunderstood — and none of it was close to the real story. In this episode, Bryce sits down with Shinia Powell, cast member of The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives, to have the conversation the show never gave her. What unfolds is something far more significant than reality TV drama. Shinia opens up about losing three brothers to suicide in seven and a half years, her own...

You don't lack tools, awareness, or access. You lack a standard. In this episode, Bryce delivers one of the most direct and unflinching conversations in the series — speaking from fresh inside his own reckoning after 20 years. The argument is simple and uncomfortable: most people don't actually want a better life. They want a better excuse for why they don't have one. Using the NLP captain-and-cre...

Nobody starts a new chapter because they feel ready. They start because staying the same finally hurts too much to ignore. In this episode, Bryce speaks from the middle of the messiest season of his life — separated, transitioning businesses, physically transformed, and rebuilding from the ground up. Through that raw, unpolished lens, he delivers one of the most honest conversations in the series...

Awareness without honesty is just a more sophisticated way of lying to yourself. In this episode, Bryce Prescott shares from the inside of one of the hardest seasons of his life — the separation from his wife of 20 years. Using that experience as the lens, he confronts a dangerous blind spot in the work of conscious creation: the formula amplifies not just your alignment, but your avoidance. You c...
