Aaron Houghton sold his company for $169 million before his 30th birthday.
Then his body forced him to face what his mind had been avoiding.
Here are my biggest takeaways from our conversation:
1- Burnout happens when you mistake your redline for your baseline.
2- Real recovery begins when you stop performing for your own self-worth.
3- Regulation is the foundation for high performance.
4- Sustainable growth is rooted in alignment, not adrenaline.
5- You can grow a business without burning down your life.
6- The rebuild can be more powerful than the rise.
7- Someone out there is carrying the same weight, and when you share your story, they learn they don’t have to carry it alone.
This was one of the most honest, embodied conversations I’ve had on what it really costs to chase success at all costs.
The full episode with Aaron is now live on Money Stories, wherever you get your podcasts.

Athletes must protect sleep, especially as the season goes on.
New paper this week found that sleep a) duration and b) quality are protective of psychological well-being, with increasing protective effects as the season went on.
Data from female collegiate soccer players.
@stevemagness That's really interesting. We've been studying how self-motivated people sometimes push too hard and burn themselves out in cycles of performance, crashing, and then recovery.
What could you do if you were immune to the negative impacts of stress?
Our five-year study looking at how business leaders handle pressure is out now and we've just discovered something incredible.
About 2% of study participants are immune to stress.
