What if success is not about pushing harder, but flipping the right internal switch? On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf Khan sits down with Terri Maxwell to unpack how your brain’s definition of success can quietly drive stress, burnout, and constant proving.

This episode is for high achievers who feel anxious, exhausted, or never “good enough” even after hitting goals. Terri shares the Success Switch framework and a simple daily practice to regulate your nervous system, shift out of fight-or-flight, and pursue goals with more calm, clarity, and fulfillment.

We scroll, react, and stay “busy” online, yet still feel unseen. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with relationship coach and author Keith Spurgin to unpack what real connection actually looks like and why loneliness keeps rising.

This conversation is for anyone who feels alone even with people around them, struggles with conflict, or keeps shutting down after getting hurt. You will hear practical ways to rebuild trust, stop self-sabotaging relationships, and stay open without isolating yourself.

About the Guest:

Keith Spurgin is a relationship coach, author, and “leader of leaders.” He wrote Unknown: Finding Connection in a Disconnected World and shares practical guidance on building healthier relationships.

Key Takeaways:

• Followers and acquaintances are not the same as being truly known, seen, and heard

• Shame keeps people quiet about loneliness, which deepens isolation

• Watch for self-sabotage patterns like ghosting and pushing people away first

• Conflict is normal in every relationship, and working through it builds closeness

• “Canceling” people after disagreements is a warning sign you are moving toward isolation

• Forgiveness happens in layers and helps you reopen connection without denying the hurt
