▶️ Alex Hormozi’s original mental toughness talk (highly recommended): If You Have a Hard Life, Watch This

Most people think “mental toughness” is about trying harder.

Alex Hormozi gave us a better map: how you respond to stress, how fast you recover, and whether you come back weaker, the same, or stronger.

In this video, I break down Hormozi’s mental toughness framework and refine the language so you can actually use it for real behavior change in your life: food, alcohol, phone, porn, work, and how you show up for your family.

I also share my own story:

  1. Dentist and former CEO of 35 dental practices
  2. Built the #1 rated practice‑ownership podcast in dentistry
  3. Burned out hard… and rebuilt my life around faith, family, and fitness
  4. Now I coach male practice‑owner dentists to become Next Level Fathers: fitter, calmer, more present leaders at home and at work

In this episode, you’ll learn:

The 4 parts of your stress response

  1. Tolerance: what it actually takes to break you
  2. Containment: how bad things get when you do break
  3. Recovery speed: how fast you get back to baseline
  4. Adaptability: whether you come back weaker, the same, or stronger


How this explains burnout and trauma

Why repeated stress without adaptation makes you more fragile over time.

How to use the framework for personal change

So you can stop “starting over Monday” and actually build a different identity day by day.

Real examples from the dentists I coach:

Guys giving up alcohol, losing weight, fixing their marriages, and leading their families with more patience and presence.
