In this special episode of The Ain’t Dead Yet Podcast, I sat down with Brett from The Meat Mafia. Together, we dive into the transformative power of faith, discipline, and relentless self-improvement. From grueling Ironmans and ultra-marathons to the quiet battles fought in difficult seasons, we share how challenge and sacrifice can become catalysts for growth. Drawing wisdom from personal experiences and figures like Nick Bare and David Goggins, we explore what it truly means to serve others and live with purpose.
