Episode 124: Trust the Process

Welcome to Episode 124 of The Endless Growth Podcast!

This week, Alex and Edgar cover everything from fiery wing sauce to the science of rewiring your brain. They kick things off with weekend recaps, dog walks, hot wings at Wing Nutz, and a deep dive into why air fryers can be either magic or a total curse. From smokers and grilling patience to run-ins with day laborers outside Home Depot, they explore how everyday moments spark bigger conversations about work ethic, generosity, and trust.

On the road, the talk turns to traffic madness, road rage, and whether a Tesla’s autopilot could save both sanity and time. That flows into tech updates, self-driving trust issues, and how fast innovation changes our habits.

But the heart of the episode lies in five thought-provoking questions. They open up about battling self-doubt, finding motivation, and the role of neuroplasticity in lifelong growth. They share how big changes, like running a business solo or starting a new career, force adaptation, and why advice to their younger selves revolves around trusting the process and exploring widely.

With laughs, personal stories, and real-world reflections, this episode blends lighthearted banter with honest growth talk, leaving you entertained, inspired, and maybe a little hungrier for wings.
