What if the way you’ve been winning is actually costing you your freedom?
In this milestone 400th episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius Mirshahzadeh goes solo to close out the year with a personal reflection on growth, self-worth, and alignment.
Darius shares his annual practice of choosing one word to guide the year ahead, reflecting on a year defined by challenge and revealing the word shaping how he’ll show up in 2026. Along the way, he unpacks patterns many high performers face, proving worth through achievement, contorting to win, and sacrificing sovereignty for success, and why choosing wholeness over hustle changes everything.
In this episode, Darius will discuss:
(00:00) Celebrating Milestones: Episode 400 and New Year's Eve
(02:55) Reflecting on the Word of the Year: Challenge
(05:55) Embracing Sovereignty: A New Direction for 2026
