In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast I chat with my man Itamar Marani — a world-class performance and mindset coach who’s helped top entrepreneurs, executives, and high achievers break through the internal barriers that keep them stuck. Itamar’s got a fascinating background — from serving in the Israeli Special Forces to working as a federal agent, and now coaching elite performers across the globe. His new book, Elite Performance, dives deep into what it really takes to achieve audacious goals — not by doing more, but by winning the war within. In this conversation, we unpack how to create psychological freedom, build guardrails to protect what matters most, and remove the “performance anchors” that quietly weigh us down.
