  • 177 - We don’t need balance - We need better priorities

    We’ve all heard it—“You just need better balance.” But what if balance isn’t the answer at all? What if constantly chasing balance is actually what’s draining you, burning you out, and leaving you feeling overwhelmed and stuck?

    In this episode of the Made4More Podcast, we’re challenging the myth of balance and leaning into something far more powerful: prioritization. Mario walks us through what it means to stop juggling everything equally and start living with intention—putting first things first, managing our energy instead of just our time, and choosing what matters most when it matters most.

    Whether you’re a leader, a parent, a business owner, or someone just trying to keep your head above water, this episode will encourage you to stop operating on empty, let go of unrealistic expectations, and step into a life of clarity and purpose. You’ll learn how to identify your “Big 3” for the week, protect your energy hours, and even create your own “stop doing” list—because not everything deserves your time.

    This isn’t just about productivity—it’s about personal growth, leadership, and living a life that reflects your values.

    So if you’re tired of being “busy” and ready to live with intention, this one’s for you.

Mark opens up about his early life, his battles with relapse, and the personal transformation that followed.

This is a story of faith, friendship, and the kind of healing that doesn't always come with a storybook ending—but reveals a greater plan at work.

    In this episode of the M4M Podcast, we explore powerful lessons from The Obstacle Is the Way by Ryan Holiday—focusing on the discipline of the will, the importance of preparing for trials before they hit, and the strength that comes from accepting what we can’t control.

    We unpack how figures like Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt endured hardship by cultivating resilience from within, and how our response—not our circumstances—defines our growth. From learning to master emotional responses to practicing the “premortem” mindset in leadership, this episode is a call to lead with intention and humility.

    Whether you're facing a personal challenge, leading a team, or just trying to grow day by day, this conversation reminds us: Life won’t stop coming—but neither should we. It’s not about what happens to us, but what we’re building in response.

    • Are you building or breaking your will?
    • Are your emotions in the driver’s seat—or your vision?
    • Are you preparing for life’s trials or simply reacting to them?
    • Are you trying to force something that’s not your gift?
    • How do you respond when control slips from your hands?
