Welcome to our latest episode!
Join host Bronson Hill and co-host Nate Hambrick, author of The 18 Laws of Leverage, on the Mailbox Money Show for an inspiring June 2025 episode with Paul Levitin, a mindset and behavior change expert. Paul, a former personal trainer turned coach, shares his EASIER framework to make change sustainable: Enthusiasm, Availability, Straightforward, Imperfect, Exponential, and Repeatable.
Learn how to overcome resistance to change, prioritize high-leverage actions, and embrace imperfection to build lasting habits in fitness, finance, or entrepreneurship. Paul discusses balancing ambition with contentment using the “gap and gain” principle, holding expectations loosely like a scientist, and focusing on what you love to avoid burnout.
