The Hidden Cost of High Performance: How to Grow Without Burning Out - MJ Gordon & Audrey Uhler

What if the biggest threat to your business isn't competition, the economy, or a bad deal—but your own operating system?
In this episode of What's Your Deal?, Matt and Audrey Uhler sit down with performance strategist and executive coach MJ Gordon to discuss why so many high-performing entrepreneurs feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and stuck in a constant state of stress.
MJ has worked with leaders from organizations like Adidas, the NFL, and NerdWallet, helping them improve performance without sacrificing their health, relationships, or quality of life. Together, they explore the hidden costs of operating in perpetual fight-or-flight mode, the impact of cognitive overload, how ADHD and brain wiring affect entrepreneurs, and why recovery may be the missing ingredient in sustainable business growth.
Whether you're building your first business, managing multiple companies, or simply trying to keep up with life's demands, this conversation offers practical strategies for creating more capacity, clarity, and long-term success.
