In this episode of Inside Personal Growth, host Greg Voisen welcomes Chris Robinson, leadership speaker, executive coach, and Executive VP at Maxwell Leadership. Chris joins us to discuss his new book, From Drift to Drive: A High Achiever’s Guide to Breaking the Chains of Complacency.

Chris shares his personal story of setbacks, resilience, and transformation, and introduces a seven-step framework that helps high achievers avoid the subtle trap of complacency. Far from laziness, complacency often creeps in after success, when leaders start coasting on past achievements. Chris shows us how to reignite purpose, move from routine to momentum, and shift from goal-oriented living to growth-oriented significance.

This conversation is packed with powerful stories, practical strategies, and actionable habits—including Chris’s five daily questions that can keep you intentional, focused, and growth-driven.
