Harnessing Change and Building Resilience
Manage episode 450303225 series 3591034
Ever felt like a liar for not sticking to your promises? That's exactly how we felt during our two-month podcasting hiatus. This episode is all about catching up on life's ups and downs, from President Trump's unexpected election win to sweating away our guilt in the gym, inspired by friends who've taken our past episodes to heart. We even tackled a fun home project by building a woodshed, proving that sometimes stepping away from the mic leads to new adventures and priorities.
Remember your first CrossFit session? Well, Jared sure does, and in this episode, we take a nostalgic trip back to 2016. Jared's rediscovery of CrossFit has rekindled his passion for high-intensity workouts and community spirit. Whether it's a lingering back injury or the adrenaline of extreme fitness, we discuss the mixed feelings that come with the territory.
We also dive into the journey of embracing change with a focus on personal growth. Inspired by the concept of "callusing the mind," we reflect on competing with ourselves and the power of consistent actions over fleeting motivation. From overcoming low testosterone levels to the societal stigmas attached, we share our personal health journey and the importance of a supportive community. Join us as we turn challenges into stepping stones and look forward to what the future holds, like a caterpillar ready to become a butterfly.
