This highlight reel gets real about the internal battles agents face—and how unchecked emotions, burnout, and ego can silently destroy agency momentum. You’ll hear firsthand how high-performers hit rock bottom and fought their way back with honesty, self-awareness, and tactical resets.

From performance slumps to mental spirals, this is your reminder: You can’t win professionally if you're losing personally.
