by Passion Struck with John R. Miles
You built the life you were supposed to want. So why doesn't it feel like enough? Passion Struck is the #1 Health and Fitness podcast — and it exists to answer exactly that question. I'm John R. Miles — Navy veteran, former Fortune 50 executive, bestselling author — and I built this show because I lived the "successful but empty" version of life myself, and I wanted to find a better way. Each week, I sit down with the world's top voices in neuroscience, psychology, medicine, and elite performance — including Angela Duckworth, Susan Cain, Robert Waldinger, Daniel Amen, and Ryan Holiday — to unpack what the research tells us about purpose, connection, and resilience, and how to apply it to your own life. Fridays, I share what I'm learning directly, in solo episodes built around the same ideas. New interviews every Tuesday and Thursday. Solo episodes every Friday.

There is so much to like about John’s podcast, including the fact that he really prepares for each interview, and the work shows in the kinds of deep, nuanced questions he asks. Also, in a world of podcasters who don’t let the interviewee shine, John is well-read and knows his stuff, but he doesn’t one-up the people he brings on the show, and that makes listening much more pleasant.
John is a great host and asks very thoughtful and specific questions. He brings on great guests with actionable takeaways. I feel like a smarter, better person after every episode.
I found this a few months ago and it’s mind blowing. It feels like every time I need a pick up or some inspiration, I turn on Passion Struck and find all I need. More than anything, I love that John’s teaching us all that we matter. Every single one of us matters and having overcome childhood trauma, considering suicide even, learning that I matter has saved me. Thank you for putting this out into the world, John! ❤️
John R. Miles is a brilliant host and his guests are the best of the best in their field! If you want to live Passion Struck this podcast and John’s book will get you there. Highly recommend both! ✅Subscribed so I never miss an episode.
