Does the word "discipline" make you cringe? You’re not alone. Many see it as restrictive, but in reality, discipline is the ultimate path to freedom. In this episode, we break down why high achievers like Jocko Willink and Eliud Kipchoge swear by it—and how you can use discipline to take control of your life.

We’ll cover practical strategies like block scheduling, building daily habits, and learning to balance discipline with flexibility. And I’ll share a personal experience that shifted my entire perspective on what it means to be disciplined.

Key Takeaways:

✔ How to reframe discipline as a tool for freedom, not restriction.

✔ Small, practical steps to implement discipline in your daily life.

✔ Why self-compassion is key when you fall off track.

If you’re ready to break free from chaos and step into a life of intention, tune in now!
