EP 3604 What is the cost of it?

EP 3604 What is the cost of it? is a blunt audit of the price you are paying, often without noticing. Shaun O'Gorman pulls apart the hidden costs that show up in everyday decisions: the cost of staying silent to keep the peace, the cost of avoiding hard conversations, the cost of chasing performance while neglecting recovery, and the cost of tolerating standards you would never accept for someone you love.

This episode is not about money. It is about energy, identity, relationships, and self-respect. If you keep saying yes when you mean no, you will pay with resentment. If you keep numbing out with distraction, you will pay with momentum. If you keep running on stress hormones and "just pushing through," you will pay with patience, sleep, and the way you speak to the people closest to you.

Shaun challenges you to stop pretending you can have everything without trade-offs. Every goal has a cost. Every habit has a cost. Every relationship you keep, and every boundary you avoid, has a cost. The problem is not paying a price. The problem is paying the wrong price. High performance is a conscious decision, not luck, ever.

You will learn a simple decision filter you can use today:

1. What is this costing me right now?

2. What will it cost me in 6 months if nothing changes?

3. What will it cost the people around me?

4. What is the cost of changing, and is that the better deal?

If you are stuck, tired, reactive, or drifting, this is your reset. Bring brutal honesty, pick one area you have been tolerating, and commit to the next right action. Progress is expensive, but regret costs more.

Listen now and do the maths on your life before life does it for you.
