In this episode of The Mark Divine Show, host Mark Divine interviews Jim Murphy, a former professional baseball player for the Chicago Cubs and high-performance coach. Jim shares his journey from his professional sports career, facing career-ending injuries, and his transformative process of moving to the Norin Desert to discover his true purpose. Jim discusses his mental and emotional mastery system called 'Inner Excellence,' which he developed out of his solitary desert experience. This system is now used by elite performers around the world.

The conversation delves into key concepts such as love, wisdom, courage, and how to cultivate these virtues to achieve peak performance and a fulfilling life.
