You say you want to grow— but not if it’s uncomfortable.

If it doesn’t suck a little, it’s probably not worth doing.


Do you want to grow? But do you also want comfort? 


You can’t have both.


In this episode of “Success for the Athletic-Minded Man,” I revisit one of my most replayed— and most needed— episode about the role of pain and discomfort in personal growth, mental toughness, and living a meaningful life. 


Whether you’re building a business, chasing a goal weight, or trying to reignite your relationships, you’re going to face resistance. And that’s a good thing.


I share personal stories from nearly quitting mid-marathon training to battling limiting beliefs that I’m just “not a runner,” plus insights from clients, Navy SEALs, and high performers who chose the hard path and reaped the reward. 


You’ll discover how to shift from “just grinding” to inspired action by connecting discomfort to your core values.


And if you're ready to do more than just think about change, I’ll give you 4 tactical steps to structure your goals, welcome accountability, and commit to something that scares you just enough to matter.


Are you ready to stop drifting and start building? This episode is your first step.
