What happens when strength isnāt enough and survival demands something deeper?
In this episode of the Choose Yourself Channel, I sit down with Cordero Stewart - personal trainer, entrepreneur, and living proof that resilience isnāt built in comfort. After facing a serious health crisis that forced him to slow down, strip back identity, and rebuild from the inside out, Cordero shares what most people never train for: who you become when performance is taken away.
We talk about the moment the body sends a signal you canāt ignore, how isolation reveals whether your confidence is internal or borrowed, and why a real foundation isnāt about motivation..itās about systems that hold when life collapses. This conversation isnāt about medical details. Itās about discipline without dopamine, faith before feedback, and choosing yourself when thereās no applause.
This episode is for anyone whoās been humbled, reset, or forced to rebuild and is ready to turn survival into purpose.
Because the ones who make it through arenāt luckier. Theyāre structured.
