Blue Grit started largely focused on physical health through fitness and stress management through peer support and other mental health support. Joining me in this episode are two returning guests: Matt Domyancic and Anthony Shefferly, two absolute physical AND mental beasts.
What do I mean by mental beasts? Beyond the cognitive intelligence (which they both have and bring to share in droves in this conversation), they bring stalwart mindset. They have developed and thus model a pinnacle level of "doing the work" through introspection, doing the truly "hard" things, and exploration of self and soul.
How we do one thing is how we do many things - this episode is designed for those who want to get on a higher plane of health and performance, through going deeper (depth psychology themes and lessons) from some of the greats: Carl Jung, James Hollis, Robert Moore and many others. *This is part 1 of 2
