Stop Self-Sabotage and Command the Stage — with Albert Bramante

Are you the one is who holding yourself back?

Not the market. Not the economy. Not your competitors — but just you?

If you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or a man who has achieved a lot but still wrestles with self-doubt, missed opportunities, or that creeping feeling of “I should be further ahead by now”… than this episode will open your eyes.

Because in this episode, you will discover:

• How to spot self-sabotaging behaviour before it quietly kills your future success.

• Why the imposter syndrome keeps your confidence low — and how to overcome it.

• And the surprising link between acting skills and leading a business.

All of that I discuss with my guest — Albert Bramante, PhD.

Albert is a former college professor, book author, and clinical psychologist who now runs a talent agency. And that’s a mixture to guarantee a fresh and unique perspective.

Together, we explored how deep-rooted mindsets can quietly sabotage your success. Albert’s journey from psychology to the entertainment industry taught him how to break those blocks that even seasoned leaders don’t see and recognize.

Change Talks brings you raw conversations with people who disrupt the usual advice and focus on what actually works for lasting change. Episodes run around 40 minutes and are packed with practical tips you can put to real work today.

From Die Hard to Deep Focus Secrets with Steven Puri: Hollywood Exec Turned a Tech Founder

Ever feel like your to-do list is growing — but your focus is shrinking? Or that success is slipping between your fingers and failure might be knocking on the door?

If you’re a founder, business owner, or exec trying to do less noise and more results, this episode will shake up how you think about productivity, leadership — and reinvention.

In this episode of Change Talks, I welcome Steven Puri — a former Hollywood executive turned tech entrepreneur — who walked away from running the Die Hard and Wolverine franchises to build something radically different: an AI-powered focus assistant. A man who knows both the glamour side of the business, but had to swallow some hard lessons and failures too.

This episode is for entrepreneurs, builders, and bold leaders who are tired of surface-level hacks and want:

  • Real talk on career changes that don’t fit on LinkedIn
  • How to find motivation and purpose when facing downturns
  • Insights on how to build products that people actually pay for
  • A smarter way to run remote teams without micromanaging or burning out


Steven’s story is a proof that reinvention isn’t just possible — it’s necessary. From selling his first company at 28 and dream career in Hollywood, to crashing two startups and learning how humility (and brutal feedback) fuel growth, his journey is full of lessons no MBA will teach you.

Change Talks is your no-bs podcast for real conversations with entrepreneurs, change-makers, and rebels who reshape business and life on their terms. Episodes drop bi-weekly and run 45–60 minutes, featuring honest interviews with real people who share real change stories.

#27 Decision Struggle: How to Overcome Fear & Choose with Confidence | Sara Mueller

Struggling with a big life or business decision? How do you choose when every option feels risky and uncertain?

When you are at a crossroad — like should you leave your 9-to-5, want to scale your business, or make a major life change — the fear of making the wrong move can be paralyzing. Self-doubt creeps in. The illusion of “safety” keeps you stuck. But what if there was a way to make confident decisions, even in uncertainty? You’re not alone.

In this episode, you will discover how to break through the fear and move forward:

  1. The Regret Minimization and Fear Setting frameworks to help you decide when both options feel scary.
  2. How limiting beliefs (aka head hurricanes) are keeping you stuck — and how to break free.
  3. Why 95% of leaders think they’re self-aware, but only 10% actually are — and how not to live in a bubble.
  4. The hidden costs of conflict avoidance and how to give (and receive) honest feedback, even when people are scared to be honest.


In this episode, I discuss these topics with Sara Mueller — bestselling author, keynote speaker, and emotional intelligence expert.

Sara shares her own story of burnout, fear, and reinvention — walking away from the corporate world to build a career that actually fuels her. If you’re standing at a crossroads, this conversation is your roadmap.

🎧 Tune in now and start making decisions that align with your future, not your fears.

This podcast is for leaders, founders, business owners, and entrepreneurs who want to drive a systematic change and to achieve seemingly “impossible” goals in their business and career. 

New episodes are released bi-weekly, run about 30—60 minutes, and feature dynamic conversations with change-makers or deep dives into practical change tips.
