Don't be fooled: even though you may see alphas achieving high-impact results, what you don't see is their periods of rest that take place behind the scenes. It's not just about working hard -- it's the balance between both working hard and resting that achieves great results. If this balance is out of wack, then everything falls apart. In today's concluding episode for Season 1, join the Pack as...

So you're starting your own pack. You have ideas, but how do you launch it off the ground? And what are the fundamental principles that should guide the who, what, when, where, and why of your pack? Join the Pack as they give valuable advice about the 4 key principles that should underpin every new pack: Your pack's general direction The speed at which your pack is running Having a hunger to both...

Meeting as a pack every once in a while can be helpful -- but it is far from optimal. Instead, having consistent routines in place can exponentially increase the effectiveness of your pack. Today, The Pack share why they have decided to establish systematized ways of meeting, and how this has helped them in all aspects of their lives. When you have routines in place, it is much harder to fall into...

Is constantly learning new information always necessary? It would be easy to think that learning new information is always advantageous, but the Pack discusses why they stopped attending new conferences to absorb new information. In particular, the Pack discusses the concept of frivolous learning and “brain candy.” Additionally, the Pack does not necessarily always see eye to eye in this episode!...

It's not enough to only meet online. One of the most essential practices of the Alpha Pack has been meeting in person to discuss even the tiniest details about each others' lives. During this episode, The Pack discusses why meeting face-to-face and having hours to be completely vulnerable with each other is an integral part of growing as a pack. Additionally, they discuss what exactly happens duri...

The Alpha Pack didn't always exist -- but this is due to the fact that it was formed with intention. In today's episode, Daniel, Scott, Jonathan, and Jay discuss why they decided to keep the Alpha Pack small, and how this Pack serves a different purpose than others packs in their lives. Additionally, they also answer questions such as, "How have their lives changed since being a part of the Alpha...

In today's episode, The Pack discusses what "running as a pack" looked like before forming The Alpha Pack.

The Hustler , The Investor , and The Optimizer – these are the 3 categories that comprise the “Triangle Framework” model of excellence. In today’s episode, The Pack discusses how these 3 categories of leaders operate, and why being an alpha can look different depending on which category you fall into. Additionally, The Pack discusses which style of excellence they personally fall into, and give ta...

Scott has been listening to a new podcast that claimed that “ energy ” is the single most important quality that all successful people possess. However, does the Alpha Pack agree with this statement? And what does “energy” even mean in this context? In today’s podcast, the Pack answers questions like, “How do you define ‘energy?’”, “Are there different types of ‘energy?’”, “Is it really that impor...

Just as every individual alpha has an origin story, each alpha pack also has an origin story. In today’s episode, Scott, Daniel, Jonathan, and Jay reminisce on how their individual stories coincided to create the Alpha Pack. Despite all of their various origin stories, one word is the key to them coming together as a pack: intentionality. If you want to start your own alpha pack, you can’t sit bac...

Unlike  other members of the Alpha Pack, Jay Hawkins was seemingly born an alpha. No embarrassing high school phases were necessary for Jay to recognize that he could control the outcome of his circumstances. In particular, Jay overviews how strong alpha leaders in his childhood helped him become the alpha he is today. Interestingly enough, these strong alpha leaders that influenced Jay weren’t ne...

Get ready for some wild stories as Scott discusses how the seemingly least alpha group—a church choir—eventually lead to Scott’s “alpha awakening.” Scott recounts how certain boundaries that were supposedly off-limits weren't actually as taboo as they seemed if he approached them with confidence and charisma. Daniel also gives his own perspective on Scott’s alpha story as Scott’s high school c...

Despite the way things may look now, Daniel Steere wasn't always an alpha. In fact, Daniel's upbringing often communicated the message that being "nice" was the highest virtue, which stifled any of his alpha tendencies. It wasn't until Daniel reached college that he learned to embrace his alpha personality -- but not before going through some embarrassing phases in high schoo...

When we think of an Alpha's origin story, we probably are prone to thinking that it looks something like this: A conniving teen who was frequently known to push the boundaries eventually comes around, and uses his dominance to excel in his career. However, do all Alpha stories have to look this way? In today's episode, Jonathan Crabb shares his incredible story of becoming an Alpha -- almo...

In this episode, Scott, Daniel, Jonathan, and Jay go into further details on what an alpha is -- and what an alpha isn't. Yes, alphas are leaders. Yes, alphas tend to dominate. But does that always have to be a negative thing? Why do alphas always get such a bad rap? Similarly, are there different kinds of alphas, or do all alphas behave the same? These questions and more will be answered in t...

Welcome to the Alpha Pack Podcast! First things first: what even is an "alpha pack?" In this introductory episode, Scott, Daniel, Jay, and Jonathan reveal the many ways modern society has hijacked the term "alpha" (no, alphas aren't supposed to be jerks!)
