What Top Performers Do Differently to Maintain Momentum with Resiliency Scholar Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe
Are you chasing success… or building something that actually lasts? In this episode of Real Relationships Real Revenue, I sit down with Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe to unpack why it’s often harder to sustain success than it is to achieve it in the first place. We dive into what separates high performers who burn out from those who stay at the top over the long haul, including how to design your life and business with intention instead of running on autopilot. We talk about control versus chaos, why rest is not a reward but a performance strategy, and how the most elite performers build systems of support instead of trying to do everything alone.
We also explore what it really takes to stay adaptable in a fast-moving world. This conversation goes beyond productivity hacks and gets into the deeper frameworks that help you show up calm, clear, and effective. If you’ve ever felt stretched thin, stuck in “go mode,” or unsure how to keep growing without sacrificing your health, relationships, or impact, this episode will shift the way you think about success.
