I had a coach who used to say, “You ain’t hurt, sucka! Get up!” Whenever we asked why he didn’t think someone was injured, he’d say, “Because I don’t hear anybody crying out.”
As funny and tough as that sounded back then, there’s truth hidden in it. In life, many people keep playing hurt without ever crying out for help, healing, or direction. This episode explores why speaking up, being honest about pain, and refusing to “play hurt” may be one of the most important parts of living a healthy life.
