No matter how much you accomplish, there's a voice that says you're not there yet. I lived from that voice for 40 years, all the way into burnout. My guest has spent 37 years understanding where that voice comes from and how to live and create from a different place.

Dr. Steve Young has treated over 9,000 patients holistically and studies how our mind, body, and spirit work as one. When I asked him how he wanted to be introduced, he sent me one line: "Steve Young, like all humans, is just humaning as best as he can."

We talk about:

• Where the feeling of "not there yet" actually comes from, and why nothing you accomplish makes it go away
• A one-word identity shift that changes how your work feels, whether you're building a company or answering email all day
• The stories you've been wearing as your identity, and who you meet when you take one off

When you start something new, it’s easy to feel like a beginner.

I see this all the time with incredibly accomplished people. They leave the company, role, or career where they developed their expertise, and suddenly it feels like all that expertise stayed behind.

I call this Expertise Amnesia.

In this Walk With Me episode, I’m inviting you to think about:

• Why starting something new can make you forget how much expertise and experience you already have
• How Expertise Amnesia can affect the way you talk about your work, what you go after, and even what you charge
• What’s already on your “palette”: the experiences, wisdom, judgment, and natural gifts you get to bring with you into whatever you create next

You may be doing something you’ve never done before. But you are never starting from scratch.

How long have you been waiting for the right moment to start the thing that's calling you?

Mark Platten built a career most people would envy, first as an Air Force officer, then in academia and international consulting. Then one ordinary afternoon in his backyard, he heard one sentence that named what he already knew: you're doing good work in the world, it's just not your soul work.

Today Mark writes, leads men's work, and guides people through their crossroads, the place I call the goo. What makes this conversation rare is that he's sharing from the middle of it, not from the polished other side.

We talk about:

• The moment Mark realized he was living two different lives, and the two years he spent finding reasons to stay in the wrong one
• The challenges and the beauty of shifting from doing what you should to doing what is calling to you
• Two practices anyone can use to connect with their younger selves and the subconscious that's quietly running the show
