This episode of The MentalCast features a dynamic conversation between host Dan Mickle and Brent Magnussen, author of Roger Up!, public speaker, and former Army engineer.

Dan and Brent dive into the power of routines, goal setting, and mindset — all themes central to Brent’s book and speaking work. They also explore the role of martial arts, specifically Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, in building mental and physical resilience. Along the way, Dan gets to test and confirm parts of his own morning ritual, something Brent passionately advocates for.

• The role of daily routines in building success
