62. David Nurse: How to Rewire Your Brain for Success (Without Hustling Harder)

Most people know mindset matters, but almost no one knows how to actually train it for better health, performance, and longevity. In today's episode of Extend, I'm joined by David Nurse, NBA mindset coach and best-selling author. We dive deep into why mindset is the real missing piece in most health optimization plans, and how flow states, identity shifts, and daily systems can radically change your outcomes. We also break down why your mindset is the ignition switch for success, how to tap into flow states more consistently (and why it matters), the truth about goals vs. systems, and why goals alone fail, how identity shapes your health, your results, and your future, and actionable tools you can start using today to rewire your brain for growth. David Nurse is a top NBA mindset coach, best-selling author, and motivational speaker specializing in high-performance habits. David is the author of Pivot & Go, Breakthrough, Do It, and the upcoming book The Flow Code. Tune in!
