THE ED MYLETT SHOW

What would you do if the person you love most was hiding something that could cost them their life?



This conversation has been 32 years in the making for me. Early in my career, I shared an office with someone connected to the Brown family, and I was around them during the trial. I saw how kind and loving that family was, and I watched Denise carry the weight of her sister's murder in front of the entire world. I have three sisters and a daughter. This one is personal.



Denise Brown lost her best friend, her sister Nicole, in one of the most public tragedies in American history. Instead of disappearing, she testified before Congress, fought for the Violence Against Women Act, and has spent three decades working with shelters across this country so other families never feel what hers did.



I asked Denise the hard questions. Why Nicole never told her family. What she would say to her sister today. How she handled the mocking and criticism. And how one sentence from a pastor changed her relationship with God. What came out of it is a masterclass in honoring your family: keep showing up, keep learning, and keep fighting long after everyone else has moved on. Her new book, For My Sister Nicole: Love Shouldn't Hurt, belongs in the hands of anyone with a sister, a daughter, or a friend they would do anything to protect.



Here's what you'll gain from this episode:

The silence that protects abusers: Why so many victims never tell the people closest to them, and what Nicole may have been protecting her family from.

The wrong things to say: Why your first instinct to help a loved one can push them further away.

The TRUST approach: A simple framework for supporting someone who isn't ready to leave.

Warning signs that start small: Why you don't need a black eye to be in danger.

Faith after tragedy: The words that lifted Denise's anger toward God.

Courage under criticism: How Denise stood for her sister while the whole world judged her.



Nicole never told her family because she was trying to protect them. Be the brother, sister, or friend someone feels safe telling. Learn the signs, ask better questions, and never stop showing up for the people you love.

Self-discipline isn't something you're born with. It's something you can build until it runs on autopilot.

This weekend I pulled together some of my favorite conversations on the one trait that changes everything. I open with five rules I've carried with me for over twenty years. They're the mindsets behind Tiger Woods and some of the most dominant athletes who ever lived. I've read them thousands of times, and they've shaped how I think about work, pressure, and what it really means to win.

Then I sit down with Mike O'Hearn, who started training at eight years old and is still getting better nearly four decades later. Mike tells me where his chip on the shoulder came from and what gets him out of bed at 3 a.m.

Tim Grover, the man who trained Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, settles a debate I've always wondered about and explains why the greatest are never satisfied.

Dean Graziosi went from a small blue-collar town to building one business after another. He pushes back hard on one of the most popular pieces of advice in entrepreneurship.

Alan Stein Jr., who has spent years around elite NBA performers, shares research on visualization that blew my mind. I share what visualization did for my own baseball career.

I close with something I feel deeply about: what conformity really costs you and why the lonely road is worth it.

Here's what you'll gain from this episode:

The Dominator Mindset: The five rules that separate the greats from everyone else, and why they're mindsets, not just behaviors.

Decades of Dominance: What it takes to stay at your peak long after most people have quit.

The Never Satisfied Standard: Why the true greats work harder after they win, not before.

Go Deep Before You Go Wide: A take on building wealth every new entrepreneur needs to hear.

Train Your Mind First: How visualization and the right kind of stress can raise your game.

Color Outside the Lines: Why the life you want is waiting outside the picture you were handed.

Sometimes all you can see in front of you is smoke. Don't look at the wall. Keep your eyes on where you're going and drive right through it.

Some of the best leadership lessons don't come from a script. They come from your questions.

Thousands of you sent questions in during Season 2 of John Maxwell's 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, so before we kick off Season 3, I sat down to answer them. No prep. Just my raw unfiltered answers.

I go deep on how to sell a dream so big that everyone on your team can see their own dreams inside it. How to carry real confidence without losing your humility, and one of the toughest questions I've been asked in a long time: what do you do when you're leading from underneath someone who feels threatened by you?

I open up about servant leadership, about letting go of the need for credit, and about why I stopped micromanaging a long time ago.

Then Max, my son, asked me how to get ready for the leader's legacy, and that's where it got personal. Having my son sitting across from me while I talked about what really lasts made this one hit different. I think you'll feel it too.

At the end of your life, you won't be sitting around with your trophies. You'll be sitting around with your people. That's the legacy, and that's why I want you to hear this one.

Season 3 of John Maxwell's 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership is dropping next Thursday! Click the link to download the free workbook, and send in your own question for the next Q&A.

You can't change yesterday's newspaper, so why are you still carrying it around?



I have wanted to sit down with this man for so long. Imagine going from living in your car to building two multibillion dollar brands. It doesn't even sound real when you say it out loud. But that's not what I admire most about him. It's how he carries the success: with humility, generosity and kindness. So today I got out of the way and let him teach.



I've interviewed some of the top entrepreneurs on the planet, and I don't know that I've ever met a better communicator. This conversation is a masterclass, and I'm fired up for you to hear it.



John Paul DeJoria is the co-founder of John Paul Mitchell Systems and Patrón Spirits Company. He started Paul Mitchell with $700 and lived in his car to make it happen. Then he built Patrón into a brand selling millions of cases a year.



Here's what you'll gain from this episode:

The Two Rules of Success: two rules to live by if you want to see more success in every area of your life.

You Can't Change Yesterday's Newspaper: Why he wouldn't change a single thing about the hard times, and how to move forward after hardship

Watch Your Words: Why saying "I'll try" keeps you trying forever, and how to break the pattern.

The Richest Man's Regret: What John Paul DeJoria said he would give up just to have been happy, and what that says about money.

Kindness Works, Even for Jerks: How humor and kindness disarms, and why you should never knock your competitor.



Whatever you're still carrying from yesterday, consider this your permission to put it down. I don't want you to just listen to this one. I want you to feel it, then go live it.

What if the success you’re chasing is actually keeping you from enjoying the life you’ve worked so hard to build?

In this mashup, we’re going straight at something I think every ambitious person needs to hear: the danger of becoming addicted to achievement. I want you to win. I want you to build the business, make the money, transform your body, impact people, and chase every dream God put in your heart. But if your happiness is always waiting on the other side of the next goal, you can spend your entire life achieving and never actually feel fulfilled. The answer isn’t to stop chasing greatness. It’s learning how to fall in love with the PROCESS while you’re becoming great.

Fallon Taylor opens up about what happened after she finally became a world champion and discovered that catching the dream didn’t magically fix everything. Her answer became growth and contribution, continuing to evolve while using what she learned to serve other people. Inky Johnson takes that idea even deeper with one of the most powerful definitions of courage I’ve heard: committing to the process when nobody can guarantee you the outcome. After his injury, he learned to stop needing the reward to justify the work and instead let his character, integrity, and commitment determine how he showed up.

Matthew McConaughey breaks down the difference between happiness and JOY, and why constantly moving the finish line can rob you of both. He shares how some of the greatest results of his career came when he stopped obsessing over the result and became completely immersed in the work. Dean Graziosi reminds us that money and achievement without fulfillment aren’t enough, and that we need to work on ourselves just as hard as we work on our businesses and our bank accounts. Inky comes back with another lesson I love: be where your feet are. Take the pictures. Have the fun. Build the memories. Don’t become so good at accomplishing things that you forget to actually EXPERIENCE your own life.

Then Rob Dyrdek gives you a masterclass on intentionally DESIGNING your life instead of simply cramming more into it. He breaks down how tracking his time, eliminating friction, creating systems, and constantly optimizing his schedule allowed him to accomplish more while protecting the parts of his life that bring him joy. Jesse Itzler brings it home with the courage to START before you’re ready. He built businesses in industries he knew almost nothing about because he trusted himself to get through the door and figure it out. His reminder is simple: you will never have enough experience, perfect timing, or every answer before you begin. And real success isn’t dominating one area of your life while everything else falls apart. It’s building winning habits across ALL the buckets that matter.

Key Takeaways:

Why achievement can become an addiction and quietly steal your happiness

Fallon Taylor on finding fulfillment through growth and contribution after reaching the top

Inky Johnson on choosing process over product and committing without a guarantee of success

Matthew McConaughey on why joy is found in the doing, not at the finish line

Dean Graziosi on building yourself while you build your success

Why being present, having fun, and creating memories are part of a successful life

Rob Dyrdek’s approach to designing, tracking, and optimizing your time around the life you actually want

Jesse Itzler on starting before you’re ready and making yourself irreplaceable

Why true success means winning across multiple areas of your life, not just money or career

I want you to chase your dreams with everything you’ve got, but don’t miss your LIFE while you’re chasing them. Stop telling yourself, “When I get there, then I’ll be happy.” There will always be another mountain, another goal, another number, another finish line. The joy is in the ride. The fulfillment is in who you become and the people you impact along the way. Chase greatness, but make sure you’re actually alive enough to enjoy becoming great.
