Welcome to Episode 135 of The Endless Growth Podcast!
This week, Alex and Edgar slow things down for a grounded, real conversation about time, health, and gratitude. The episode opens light with talk of Halloween parties, lasers, and UFO décor, then dives into why time seems to fly as we get older. They explore how routine makes life blur together, and how novelty, curiosity, and new experiences can help slow it back down.
From there, things turn reflective as the guys talk about adulthood, accountability, and the discipline that comes with structure. Alex shares how returning to the office reignited his focus after months of remote burnout, while Edgar talks about perspective and how mindset can change even the hardest weeks. They also touch on finances, uncertainty, and the importance of staying grounded when life feels unstable.
Later, the talk shifts to health and fitness. Alex opens up about consistency in the gym, supplements, and the battle between pre-workout highs and healthy habits. Edgar shares how his recent bloodwork taught him the value of yearly check-ins and how stress affects the body more than most people realize. Together, they break down how health is not just physical. It is emotional, mental, and deeply tied to how we handle pressure.
Before wrapping, Alex reflects on empathy as his “secret sauce” in sales and life. He explains how learning to really listen, whether to clients, friends, or yourself, can completely change the outcome of any interaction. The guys close with thoughts on discipline, goal-setting, and why action matters more than talking about it.
A calm yet thought-provoking episode that reminds you to slow down, check in, and appreciate where you are before chasing what’s next.
Tap play, share with a friend, and remember, growth takes time.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
