  • 5 Minute Drill | How to Let Go to Level Up

    5 Minute Drill | How to Let Go to Level Up
    Jun 17 2026

    You ever feel like God's been stripping things away…and you're left wondering what you did wrong?

    The contract falls through.

    A longtime friend ghosts you.

    That "safe" comfort zone? Gone.

    Your first thought?...

    "What the heck did I do?"

    But what if the loss you're experiencing isn't punishment? What if it's preparation?

    In this 5-Minute Drill episode of Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™, J.R. tackles one of the hardest realities high-performing, faith-driven men face: Navigating seasons when God removes something they thought they needed.

    Whether it's a relationship, opportunity, job, client, or season of life, loss has a way of making us question ourselves, our future, and even our faith. But what if God isn't stripping something away because you're failing? What if He's pruning you because He wants you to become more fruitful?

    This episode is about one powerful truth: God doesn't multiply what you cling to. He multiplies what you surrender. And if you learn how to navigate seasons of subtraction the right way, you may discover they're actually setting the stage for your next breakthrough.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why loss isn't always rejection (and is often God's process of refinement).
    • Two personal stories from J.R.'s life that revealed where he was placing his trust.
    • The Biblical principle of pruning and why God sometimes removes good things to prepare us for better things.
    • What Joseph's story teaches us about divine subtraction before multiplication.
    • The neuroscience behind the "amygdala hijack" and why setbacks often trigger emotional overreactions.
    • The science-backed PRY Framework to help you process loss without falling apart.
    • Why surrendering outcomes can reduce anxiety, increase resilience, and improve wellbeing.
    • A powerful mindset shift that will help you stop seeing every setback as a sign that you've messed up.

    What you'll walk away with…

    You'll learn how to:

    • Respond to loss with clarity instead of panic.
    • Regulate your emotions when life blindsides you.
    • Reframe setbacks through both a Biblical and psychological lens.
    • Discover what God may be preparing you for (or protecting you from).
    • Let go of control and move forward in faith.
    • Trust that God may be setting you up for your next breakthrough.

    KEY QUOTES

    • "Stillness is spiritual strength training. You can't be still with an upregulated nervous system." - J.R.
    • "You need to start seeing things from heaven's perspective, not hell's perspective." - J.R.
    • "God doesn't multiply what we cling to. He multiplies what we surrender." - J.R.

  • Keith Ferrazzi | The #1 Mistake Elite Leaders Make (And How to Fix It)

    Keith Ferrazzi | The #1 Mistake Elite Leaders Make (And How to Fix It)
    Jun 10 2026
    What do you do when your team is full of talent, but you're still carrying all the weight? You know what I'm talking about…that moment you realize you're the one pushing every conversation forward. Holding everyone accountable. Keeping the mission alive. It's exhausting. Let's be honest: you're not leading a team. You're dragging one. That's why J.R. sat down with leadership expert, executive team coach, and #1 New York Times bestselling author, Keith Ferrazzi. Keith has coached some of the most elite executive teams in the world, including the turnaround of General Motors, the national strategy of Bhutan, and some of the fastest-growing Unicorn startups on the planet. His latest book, Never Lead Alone, challenges one of the biggest myths in leadership: The best leaders don't carry the team. They build teams that rise up and lead alongside them. In this powerful conversation, Keith shares the leadership shifts that separate average teams from elite teams, why conflict avoidance is quietly destroying performance, and how leaders can stop feeling isolated at the top. If you've ever felt like you're carrying the organization, the family, or the mission on your back, this episode may completely change the way you think about leadership. In this episode, you'll hear: The most important leadership shift elite teams are making right nowWhy high-performing teams cross the finish line togetherHow conflict avoidance creates politics, mistrust, and divisionA practical framework for creating accountability without damaging relationshipsThe difference between giving directives and providing inputHow to create psychological safety while still challenging people to growWhy many leaders feel lonely at the top (and how to change that immediately)The power of peer-to-peer feedback and accountabilityHow to move from leadership to "teamship" KEY QUOTES "High-performing teams cross the finish line together." - Keith Ferrazzi"Most teams avoid difficult conversations, but true high-performers challenge each other in real time. The result? More trust, faster growth, and stronger teams." - Keith Ferrazzi"The struggles of your life can be solved with the people around you—it's a more enriching way to do it." - Keith Ferrazzi"Leaders must shift from focusing on leadership to teamship, where you expect the team to level up and meet you in leadership." - Keith Ferrazzi"You don't think your way to a new way of acting. You act your way to a new way of thinking." - Keith Ferrazzi"If you feel lonely at the top, that's on you. You are choosing to isolate yourself from people who are ready to love and support you." - Keith Ferrazzi CONNECT WITH KEITH Connected Success: https://www.connectedsuccess.com/ (This is Keith's 9-week program that explores how meaningful relationships shape opportunity, impact, and fulfillment.

  • 5 Minute Drill | Stop the Hidden Signals You're Sending After Work

    5 Minute Drill | Stop the Hidden Signals You're Sending After Work
    Jun 3 2026

    You ever walk in the door after a long day…say nothing…and still hear, "You seem annoyed to be home"?

    That one stings. But let's be real…sometimes they're not wrong.

    Not because you're annoyed with your spouse or kids, but because your emotions are talking…even when you're not.

    In this 5-Minute Drill episode of Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™, J.R. tackles a hidden performance killer for high-performing, faith-driven men: emotional residue.

    The pressure. The conversation that fired you up. The meeting that went sideways. The stress that never got processed. …You may think you left it at work, but if you don't transition with intention, it walks through the front door before your words ever do.

    This episode is about one simple truth:

    Your silence may not say anything, but your emotional state is still speaking loud and clear.

    And if you don't learn how to reset before you walk through the door, the people you love most may keep getting your leftovers instead of your leadership.

    In this episode, you'll hear:

    • Why your silence after work may still be sending a loud message to your loved ones.
    • The neuroscience behind emotional contagion (and how your energy is influencing your home without saying a word).
    • A powerful Scripture verse that reveals how your inner world shapes your outer presence.
    • The 3-step strategy to help you shift from work mode to home leader in less than 5 minutes.
    • The science of embodied cognition and how your posture and expression can transform your mindset.
    • A game-changing mindset shift to help you start leading with intentional energy.

    What you'll walk away with…

    You'll learn how to:

    • Recognize the emotional signals you're sending before you walk into a room.
    • Stop leaking stress onto the people you love.
    • Use your breath, body, and mindset to reset your presence.
    • Transition with intention, not tension.
    • Come home as a calm, confident, and present leader — even after a tough day.

    KEY QUOTES

    • "Your energy walks through your front door before your words ever do." - J.R.
    • "Your emotions are talking, even if you're not." - J.R.
    • "This isn't about faking it—it's about leading with the positive energy you have inside of you, even when you may feel exhausted." - J.R.
