Episode Details

What if success is not about working harder, but about mastering your mind?

In this episode of The Good Builder Podcast, Aaron Ng sits down with Dr Yannick Van Heirden, mindset and performance specialist and founder of Impaktr, for one of the most practical and honest conversations we have had on leadership, discipline and sustainable success.

Yannick shares his personal journey from being directionless and self-sabotaging to completing a PhD and coaching high-performing leaders across Australia. Together, they unpack why so many builders and business owners feel constantly behind, stressed, and burnt out and what actually needs to change.

This episode dives into:

• Why your mind can be your greatest asset or your worst enemy
• The biggest leadership trap builders fall into without realising
• How behaviour change beats motivation every time
• Why taking care of your body is non-negotiable for business performance
• Practical habits builders can use immediately to regain control of their time and energy
• Why success is self-mastery, not a finish line
• How combat sports like jiu-jitsu build resilience for business and life

This is not theory. It is practical, grounded advice for builders, tradies and leaders who want to perform at a high level without sacrificing their health, family or sanity.

If you feel busy but not effective, motivated but exhausted, or successful but stretched, this conversation will hit home.
