We’ve all heard the saying, “Life is short.” But what happens when life feels unbearably long?

In this raw and deeply personal solo episode, Jeff Luther shares his story of dying—twice—and the brutal lessons that came with it. From surviving sudden cardiac death to navigating the collapse of a 22-year marriage, Jeff reflects on how these moments shaped his perspective on gratitude, purpose, and perseverance.

This isn’t about motivational clichés or sugarcoating pain. It’s about staring down the hardest seasons of life and choosing to lean in when everything in you wants to lean out.

In this episode, Jeff dives into:
✔ Why “Life is short” can sometimes be an excuse we use to avoid the hard things
✔ What to do when you’re stuck in a long, painful season that feels endless
✔ How to stop waiting for perfect timing and start living with urgency
✔ The power of patience, perspective, and purpose after trauma
✔ Why success isn’t the goal—it’s the pursuit

If you’ve ever felt like life was dragging you through hell, this conversation will remind you that the clouds do part—and you’re stronger than you think.
