Manage episode 514074255 series 1094783
In this deeply vulnerable conversation, Eduan Viljoen—now an InnerFight Strength & Conditioning Coach—shares the inflection points that shaped him: a late surge into sport, losing (and rebuilding) confidence, navigating a complex childhood, and discovering why doing hard things matters far beyond the gym.
We unpack empathy as a coaching superpower, how to spot when validation drives your goals, and why quality movement transforms more than just your performance.
You’ll hear about:
- Turning resentment into responsibility
- The link between physical suffering and everyday wisdom
- Coaching with empathy while maintaining standards
- Choosing values daily: honesty, work, kindness, competitiveness
