What happens when success is no longer enough?

On this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Shemaiah Reed sits down with David Gerber, mental performance coach, certified lion tracker, TEDx speaker with more than 1 million views, and Partner at Novus Global. David works with professional athletes, executives, and high-performing leaders who want to move beyond achievement and build lives rooted in clarity, courage, purpose, and what he calls radical aliveness.

David shares powerful lessons from tracking wild lions in Africa and explains how those experiences translate into navigating fear, pressure, uncertainty, and major life transitions. The conversation explores why even highly successful people can feel stuck, how breakdowns can reveal clues about what comes next, and why presence may be one of the greatest advantages a leader can develop.

We also discuss themes from David’s book The Lion Is You, which connects the ancient art of tracking with personal transformation, loss, renewal, leadership, and rediscovering the courageous version of yourself that may have been buried beneath comfort and routine.

In this conversation:

Moving beyond success into a life that actually feels alive
Performing with clarity when fear takes over
What tracking lions can teach us about leadership
Turning pain, failure, and loss into a new chapter
Breaking limiting stories and getting out of autopilot
Courage, vulnerability, and deeper human connection
Finding the clues pointing toward your next level
