šŖ½ Some people donāt level up. They get leveled. - Chris Spruell Preview
Some people donāt change until the old version of them dies
šŖš¾In this preview episode, I set the tone for my conversation with Chris, founder of Start Over Fitness, a trainer, a spiritual thinker, and someone who didnāt wake up one day and decide to change.. life forced it. Chris was literally hit by a truck, and according to him, that version of him didnāt survive. What followed wasnāt just recovery, it was a rebirth. We talk about what happens when pain stops being something you run from and starts becoming the thing that redirects your entire life.
š„Most people say they want change but they donāt want the death that comes before it. They donāt want to let go of the addictions, the old friends, the environments, or the identity that feels familiar even when itās killing them. In this preview, I break down how trigger points repeat until you stop numbing and start listening, why relationships expose what you havenāt healed, and how environments donāt just influence behavior... they resurrect old versions of you if youāre not intentional.
šTriggers arenāt punishments, theyāre instructions. Growth requires burial before it brings resurrection. If you keep planting yourself in the same soil, donāt be surprised when nothing changes.
āThis episode sets up a deeper conversation about discipline, fasting, controlled struggle, solitude, and building identity through routine instead of extremes. We get into why discipline isnāt restriction, itās protection, why consumption loops keep people spiritually and emotionally weak, and how small systems practiced daily build self-trust over time. This isnāt fitness talk ā itās a masterclass on choosing intention over emotion, even when your environment, habits, and history are pulling you backward.
If this preview hits, the full episode goes much deeper. It challenges you to ask whether youāre actually changingā¦ or just coping better while hoping life doesnāt force the lesson again.
