What does it take to reach your breaking point and keep going anyway? What does it take to confront the limits of your body, your mind, and your comfort, and still refuse to quit?

In Beyond the Wall: Pushing Past Your Limits, we explore one of the deepest truths about personal growth. Real transformation does not happen in easy seasons. It happens when you willingly step into the hard things, trust God through the struggle, and keep moving when everything in you wants to stop.

This episode follows the journey of CBA Support Center team members Mike Simmons, Brad Fink, and Cameron Giddings as they joined a group of brothers to take on the Rattler 50K Ultramarathon in Burnet, Texas. Over six hours of rocky terrain, steep climbs, scorching sun, and rising heat pushed every runner to confront exhaustion, pain, and self doubt.

The race became a real time lesson in endurance and faith. You will hear how Mike took a hard fall on the trail, hit the ground, regrouped through pain, and kept pressing forward. You will hear how Manny battled severe calf cramps and still pushed to mile 20. You will hear how Freddy fought heat exhaustion and hallucinations but refused to give up. You will hear how Brad trained harder than anyone but reached a point where his body physically failed, yet with full humility and pride in his brothers, he stood at the finish line cheering with joy.

These moments reveal the heart of brotherhood. Support. Encouragement. A shared grit that binds people together when the trail gets rough. This race was not about finishing first. It was about finishing with purpose. Every step carried a deeper meaning rooted in faith, discipline, and belief that growth lives on the other side of hardship.

Through this story, the episode breaks down some of the most important lessons we can learn about life and leadership.
• How to keep moving when your strength feels gone.
• Why pain often signals the beginning of transformation.
• Why God does some of His strongest work when you feel the weakest.
• How brotherhood and community can carry you through the hard seasons that are too heavy to walk alone.
• Why the moments that break you open often become the moments that rebuild you stronger.

This is not a running story. This is a life story. It is about finding out who you are when comfort is stripped away. It is about leaning on faith when fear begins to rise. It is about understanding that the wall you hit is not the end of your journey but the starting point of who you are becoming.

No matter what your personal wall looks like, this episode will challenge you to take the next step. And then the next. And then another. Small, faithful steps that build strength over time.

Because growth does not happen before the wall. It happens when you break through it.

Great leaders are not remembered for avoiding decisions. They are remembered for having the courage to make them.

In this episode of The Overdrive Podcast, we explore why indecision costs more than making the wrong call, break down a simple but powerful framework for making wise and values-driven choices, and dive into a high-stakes real-world story of decisive leadership in action.

Whether you are leading a team, a business, or yourself, this conversation will help you cut through fear and overthinking so you can lead with clarity, courage, and conviction.

How to gather wise input without outsourcing the responsibility

The role courage plays in committing to a decision when the path is unclear

How to review and learn from your decisions to build long-term confidence

Indecision is a decision, and it often costs more than being wrong.

Your values are your compass when the path is unclear.

Decision-making is not a talent you are born with. It is a muscle you train through practice and reflection.

Name the Decision You Are Avoiding: Write it down and bring it into the light.

Set a Decision Deadline: Stop dragging it out and commit to a date.

Clarify Your Values: Decide what matters most before weighing your options.

Get Input from the Right Voices: Seek wise counsel without handing off the choice.

Reflect and Reps: After making the call, review what worked, what didn’t, and how you can grow from it.

“Indecision costs more than making the wrong call.”
“Your team does not expect perfection. They expect direction.”
“Decision-making is not a talent. It is a discipline you can build.”

Leaders who want to gain confidence in their choices

Business owners or managers stuck in overthinking

Anyone facing tough decisions in their personal or professional life

Teams that need a clear, repeatable decision-making framework
