#93 - Why Both Discipline and Compassion Matter


Listen Later

Explore the two voices that exist inside all of us: the “soft voice” that seeks comfort, safety and rest, and the “hard voice” that demands discipline, resilience pushing. 

Through the lens of running, training and everyday life, Tommy discusses why both voices are necessary, how both can become dangerous when taken to extremes, and why true wisdom lies in knowing which one deserves your attention and when.

This is a conversation about self awareness, balance, ambition, recovery and learning when to push harder and when to pull back.
