What do you do when your body says no, but your life demands a yes?
In this raw and relatable episode, Ethan and Justin hit record right after admitting the same thing—they’re exhausted.
But instead of hitting pause, they share how they keep showing up with energy, presence, and purpose even when their tank is empty.
