Finding Greatness

158. How Embracing Hard Situations Leads to Entrepreneurial Growth


Listen Later

Okay friends, buckle up—because in this episode we’re diving headfirst into the cold, hard truth about embracing discomfort... and yes, I’m starting with a literal cold tub. Ever dunked yourself into freezing water on purpose? It’s a vibe—and it’s also a powerful metaphor for how choosing hard things can build insane mental toughness. I’m unpacking how deliberately tolerating discomfort doesn’t make you crazy—it makes you capable. Because here’s the thing: your tolerance for hard directly shapes the size of your dreams. The higher your tolerance, the higher your ceiling. And spoiler alert: greatness doesn’t come to the people who wait until things feel easy—it comes to the ones who show up anyway.

 

We’re also getting into the gritty (and kind of liberating?) truth that you don’t have to feel good to perform well. Like, newsflash: how you feel isn't the boss of your effort. I’m sharing why learning to execute despite discomfort is a total game-changer, and how redefining your relationship with hard things can actually make life feel more aligned, more energizing, and yep—even more fun. Because hard doesn’t have to equal miserable. Sometimes, it’s exactly where the magic happens. So if you're ready to toughen up in all the right ways, ditch the excuses, and tap into a whole new level of badassery, hit play now. Let’s go find your greatness—one ice bath at a time.
