#61: How to Make Your Marriage Feel Like Day One Again with Kevin and Molly Richards 10.06.2026

Marriage drift is the slow disconnection that happens when two people stop pursuing each other. You are not fighting. You are not in crisis. You are just going through the motions, and that quiet distance is harder to fix than a blowup because you do not even notice it happening. JL sits down with Kevin and Molly Richards, married 31 years, to unpack how they went from transactional routines to ge...

#60: Sean Pollard on Why Young Men Need Mentorship, Identity, and a Path Forward 03.06.2026

Self-sabotage in business and marriage is rarely a discipline problem. It is an identity ceiling coded in childhood that your willpower cannot override.

JL sits d...

Identity and revenue are not the same thing, but most entrepreneurs treat them like they are. This episode is for the guy who has built it, burned it, and started over more than once, who knows what to do but keeps cycling through the same pattern of hustle, collapse, and reinvention without ever addressing what is actually driving it. JL sits down with Matt Sessa founder of Desert Disciples a Chr...

#58: How to Rebuild Attraction With Your Wife Before It's Too Late with Keith Yackey 20.05.2026

Long term attraction in marriage breaks down when men stop leading themselves. Most men provide, protect, and produce but never ask why their wife stopped feeling desire.

JL sits down with Keith...

#57: Michael Hunter on How He Handles 10X More Stress Now Than What Broke Him Before 13.05.2026

JL Van Zyverden sits down with...

#Rewind: Why High Performers Struggle In Relationships with Melissa Nanavati 29.04.2026

Most high performers treat their relationship like it should run on autopilot while they optimize everything else. The result is not a bad relationship on paper, but a slow energy leak that drains performance everywhere. This episode breaks down why the same traits that drive professional success, rigidity, speed, outcome fixation, become liabilities at home and what to do about it. JL sits down w...

#Rewind: You Have Everything But You're Still Lost: Becoming a Better Man with Sean Pollard 22.04.2026

#55: Stop Listening to What Leads You Astray: Lessons on Discerning Between God's Voice and the Noise 15.04.2026

Everyone has access to more more influence than ever before. The problem is not a lack of direction. It is that too many directions are competing for your attention at once, and the loudest voice pulling you off course is often your own.

#54: How to Stay Grounded When The World Feels Out of Control with Justin Cross 08.04.2026

Most men know what they should be doing for their families. The problem is not information, it is congruence.

This episode is about closing that gap between who you say you are and who you actually are when things get chaotic. JL sits down with Ju...

#53: The Six Pillars of Health With Aaron Williamson 01.04.2026

You have tried the meal plans, the gym routines, the supplements. You saw progress, then lost it. The issue was never the plan. It was that nothing underneath changed. Your habits, your sleep, your stress, your sense of self-worth stayed exactly where they were. Aaron Williamson is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, celebrity fitness trainer to Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, and Sylvester Stallone, and acto...

#52: Why Your Self-Talk Is Sabotaging Your Progress 25.03.2026

You hit your workout. You try to stay on track. But the way you talk to yourself quietly pulls you off course. In this episode of Sell Anything, JL breaks down a simple truth most people overlook: your words are not just describing your reality, they are creating it.

#51: The Missing Piece in Maintaining Fitness Progress 18.03.2026

Everything is finally working. Your body is changing. Your habits are dialed in. So why does it start slipping right when you gain momentum? In this episode of Sell Anything, JL breaks down what actually causes people to lose control in fitness after they start seeing results. It is not a lack of discipline. It is what happens when progress turns into pressure, emotion, and overcorrection. He expl...

#50: Why You Keep Drifting in Fitness 11.03.2026

You do not struggle in fitness because you do not want it badly enough. You struggle because drift is subtle, direction gets blurry, and autopilot takes over before you even realize it. In this episode of Sell Anything, JL covers the three stages of transformation through a fitness lens: drift, discipline, and dominion. He explains why desire without direction leads nowhere, why discipline is not...

#Rewind: Why You Still Aren’t In Shape Even Though You Know What To Do with Dallin Rogers 25.02.2026

You already know what to eat. You already know you should train. So why are you still stuck?

#49: How to Use the Scale Without Letting It Control You 04.02.2026

Stepping on the scale should feel like checking your bank account. It is information, not identity.

JL draws from his experience coaching clients, his background in fitness, and the predictable...

#48: Comparison Is Destroying Your Confidence and Consistency 28.01.2026

Comparison feels like motivation, but it is one of the fastest ways to destroy confidence, consistency, and long-term results. In this episode of Sell Anything, JL Van Zyverden talks about why confidence is not built by looking better than someone else, but by completing the promises you make to yourself. Drawing from years of personal training and leadership development, JL explains how compariso...

#45: Most People Don’t Know What They Actually Want 31.12.2025

Before 2026 begins, the most important business decision you can make isn’t what you buy, it’s getting clear on what you actually want.

This conversation shows how drifting into opportunities without intention l...

#44: What to Look for When Buying a Business with Amy Walker 17.12.2025

Most people don’t fail at buying a business because of price or revenue. They fail because the business can’t survive without the owner.

Together, they discuss what actua...

#43: Why Salespeople Are Uniquely Positioned to Buy Businesses 10.12.2025

Salespeople underestimate how close they already are to becoming business owners.

#42: The Smartest Path to Entrepreneurship (Buy, Don’t Build) 03.12.2025

Every entrepreneur loves the idea of “building something from scratch,” but it is the hardest, riskiest, least predictable path to ownership.
