In this episode I talk about the power of choosing difficult paths in life. From climbing the Manitou Incline near Colorado Springs-nearly 2,700 steps and over 2,000 feet of elevation gain-to the everyday challenges we face in work, relationships, and personal growth. Hard things build resilience, clarity, and character. Whether it's pushing your body up a mountain or pushing yourself through uncertainty in life, growth almost always lives on the other side of discomfort.
