What if the greatest threat to your life, peace, and purpose isn’t money, the markets, or even the industry but the quiet operating system shaping how you think, work, and see yourself?

In Episode 2 of the Make Life Less Taxing Podcast, Daniel Hanzelka names the enemy most advisors never recognize: the unseen system that forms your identity, directs your decisions, and quietly taxes your clarity long before dollars ever leave your account.

Daniel shares a striking story from a trip to India an ordinary car ride that turned out to be a hidden kidnapping attempt and reveals how that moment mirrors the way many advisors live today: being moved, pressured, and redirected without ever realizing who’s holding the steering wheel.

This conversation uncovers the real battle beneath the busyness: the Red World system of scarcity, confusion, and survival… and why so many high-achieving advisors feel behind, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the life God intended for them.
