Effort Over Results with Quinn Magnuson is the podcast for leaders. Leaders in all walks of life. CEOs, coaches, educators, parents. Anyone committed to growing the resilient, confident, mentally strong … in a results-obsessed world.
As a former pro athlete, long-time coach, and high-performance leadership expert, Quinn dives deep into the real issues facing today’s arenas: pressure, burnout, mental health, identity, social comparison, and the rising demands of competitive sports and academics.
Each week, Quinn is joined by subject matter experts in the areas of leadership, psychology, athletics, coaching, and business.
Together, they explore how effort-based communication, psychological safety, and growth-mindset principles can help develop confidence from the inside out—not from trophies, KPIs, rankings, or external validation.
Whether you’re a founder, coaching athletes, teaching a classroom full of unique minds, or guiding others through life’s transitions, you’ll walk away with simple, practical tools you can use today. Expect real conversations, science-backed insights, and stories that remind you what matters most: helping others feel capable, supported, and seen.
This podcast exists for one reason—to change the way we lead, praise, teach, coach, and support others.
New episodes every week.
Let’s raise stronger humans—one effort at a time.
In this powerful conversation, Dr. Lindsay Emmerson dives into what unconditional positive regard really means and why focusing on effort over results is one of the most important foundations of resilient, confident children.
We talk about how parenting styles have evolved, how social media and screen time are shaping emotional development, and why resilience is not about protecting kids from failure, but teaching them how to adapt, learn, and try again.
This episode goes far beyond parenting. These principles directly apply to coaching, education, leadership, and workplace culture. If you care about raising strong kids, building emotionally safe teams, or becoming a better leader, this conversation is for you.
