This Throwback Thursday episode of the Mindset Matters podcast revisits one of Patrick and Steffany’s most powerful conversations about the six fundamental human needs that shape our behavior, influence our decision making, and determine our personal growth. As coaches, entrepreneurs, and partners, Patrick and Steffany explore why understanding these needs is essential for self mastery, leadership, and building meaningful relationships.
They dive into the essential needs identified by psychologist Chloe Madanes which include certainty, variety, significance, connection, growth, and contribution. Patrick and Steffany share real life examples from coaching clients, athletes, business environments, and their own marriage to illustrate how these needs show up differently for each person depending on life stage, personality, and values.
The discussion highlights how certainty provides stability and direction, while variety fuels creativity and adaptability. They unpack how significance influences our sense of purpose, how connection anchors belonging, and how growth and contribution allow us to move forward with clarity and meaning. Steffany adds her perspective from decades of Olympic level coaching, emphasizing the importance of the “champions paradox,” which blends both certainty and uncertainty to create breakthroughs.
This throwback episode offers listeners practical insights on self awareness and leadership. Patrick and Steffany invite listeners to reflect on which needs are currently being met, which feel depleted, and how simple shifts in attention can create powerful momentum. They also remind listeners to join their upcoming free decision making working session, designed to help people identify what gets in their way, unlock clarity, and move forward with confidence.
This renewed release is packed with timeless wisdom and remains one of the most popular conversations for a reason. It is a grounded reminder that understanding your human needs helps you design a life, a mindset, and relationships that truly work.
