In this episode of The Iron & Infrastructure Podcast, I break down what I call The Curse of Competence – the dangerous trap of becoming too good at what you do. If you’re the go-to person, always relied on but never appreciated, and stuck in a position you’ve outgrown, this one’s for you.

We dive deep into:

• Why high performers often get overlooked
• How to avoid burnout even when you're “the guy” or “the girl” everyone counts on
• The power of training your replacement
• How to leverage your true value without ego
• Why production = purpose

This one is about recognizing your worth, protecting your energy, and unlocking the next level of growth. You don’t need to stay stuck just because you’re great at something. Let’s evolve — together.
