🌿 Fearless First Steps 5/7: The Last Round Is Yours #FinishStrongFriday

What if the only thing standing between you and your win was the decision to get back up… one more time?

As Michael Jordan once said, “I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

In this Fearless First Steps episode, we dig into the roots of resilience and what it takes to truly finish strong.

We’ll talk about the vagus nerve — think of it as your body’s “calm-down command center.” It runs from your brain down through your chest and gut, telling your heart to slow down, your breathing to even out, and your stress response to cool off.

When the VAGUS NERVE is trained well through practices like mindfulness, deep breathing, and even singing (yes, you can tell people you’re “working out your vagus nerve” at karaoke), it helps you bounce back faster from life’s punches.

We’ll draw inspiration from the grit of Muhammad Ali and the relentless dedication of Dr. Charles Drew, who both proved that knowing your “why” is the fuel for pushing past obstacles.

You’ll also learn how neuroplasticity — your brain’s ability to rewire itself — works like a personal upgrade system every time you rise after a fall.

Because finishing strong isn’t about never tripping — it’s about becoming the kind of person who trips, laughs, gets up, and keeps moving toward the goal.

🎧 Hit play — and let’s commit to finishing what we start.
