On December 4th, I’ll run over 200 miles across South Carolina to raise a goal of at least $20,000 for families battling cancer through Breaking Ribbons, an initiative born from deep personal loss and a desire to do hard things for those going through even harder things. This challenge isn’t about running—it's about choosing voluntary suffering to serve those who don’t have that choice. Tune in, share the mission...
What does it really mean to win?
Lately, I’ve been sitting with this question—and the more I observe high performers, the more I notice a common thread: the most successful people aren’t doing everything. They’re obsessed with one thing.
This episode was inspired by my time at the Aspire Tour, where leaders like Ed Mylett, David Goggins, and Jesse Itzler laid out their blueprints for success. What stood out? Simpl...

- Create new evidence through consistent action.

Your words don't just reflect your reality—they create it. A lesson I learned early in my career taught me that saying "I'll try" invites uncertainty, while commitment begins with decisive language. The words we use—especially those that signal doubt or limitation—shape how we think, act, and pursue goals. As we hit the year’s midpoint, focus on upgrading your language and watch how it improves you...
Waist-deep in freezing water, questioning everything, I faced the brutal reality of the 2025 Spartan Death Race—72 hours of nonstop, unpredictable suffering. From bear encounters to barbed wire crawls and cement hauls, the experience shattered comfort and tested my mental limits far more than my physical ones. What I learned is simple but powerful: the body rarely gives out before the mind does, and most people quit n...
Ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish, it's never enough? You're not alone. Ambition—that driving force behind achievement—can sometimes lead us into what I call "the unintentional abyss of ambition," where periods of stillness or rest become sources of self-criticism rather than rejuvenation.
In this deeply personal episode, I share my own recent struggles with feeling insuffic...
The sweet spot of human potential often lies just beyond where most people are willing to venture. What happens when we deliberately seek out our limits, not just to discover them but to push past them? This profound question sets the stage for my upcoming participation in the 2025 Spartan Death Race—one of the world's most extreme and unpredictable endurance challenges.
My journey toward this event bega...
