Welcome to Beyond. The podcast for Lionhearted men. This is a hugely important discussion and one that inhabits my heart these days. Discomfort. 

Learning to be uncomfortable is perhaps the most significant muscle to build in todays world. If you are not able to deal with adversity, challenges, and uncertainty, you are really going to struggle in the world today. Whether it be the challenge of not being good at something as you just learn it, to failing at something you care about, getting injured, not getting something you want, a natural disaster, an illness, inconvenience, or death. You must learn to face the difficult moments of life…that is where all the significant learning happens. 

At the heart of all learning is discomfort. 

This is a wild time we have chosen to be alive. To inhabit our unique human bodies, and in these wonderfully apocalyptic times, rooted in the thrill of being alive and stepping into, not away from uncomfortable situations is where you find meaning and fulfillment.

My young friend Jordan Zimmerman is back and we dive into our own discomfort,  and share about our ways of training and getting ourselves ready for the powerful mystery in an effort to guide you, to invite you, to inspire you. 

As we begin Please do be aware Jordan and I discuss our own experiences with suicide and death in this episode. 

Thank you for listening to Beyond - conversations with my friends. I’m glad you’re here to explore this terrain.
