Andrew shares one of his performance strategies for managing energy during intense periods. Recently, he delivered 4 keynotes in just 24 hours — over 2,000 people, 4 industries, 3 states. That kind of schedule can leave most people feeling flat, scattered, and completely drained.
But there’s a simple performance lever Andrew uses to recover between high-pressure moments — and you can use it too. Hear how to micro-dose recovery so you stay sharp, focused, and ready for what’s next.
If you’ve got a high-intensity period coming up — whether it’s work, travel, or life — we highly recommend checking out the full episode, where Andrew unpacks 4 more performance levers to help you perform under pressure.
As Archilochus famously said, ‘We don’t rise to the occasion. We fall to our level of preparation.’
