Why do we do hard things?
In this episode, I break down why discomfort matters and what it does for us in everyday life. Hard is relative—what challenges me may not challenge you, but both deserve respect. We’ll explore how hard things build patience, shape confidence, and inspire those around us. I share stories from my own life—battling fatigue, pushing through burnout, qualifying for Boston—and how those experiences prove that adversity is the most honest teacher.
You’ll hear about:
Hard things forge your character. Not in theory, but in practice. And the challenge for you: over the next 7 days, stop fearing the hard. Don’t focus on the effort—focus on the outcome.
Keep Getting After It.

Getting After It is for those who.want to silence their self-doubt. Refuse to be owned by comfort. Understand their limits are man-made and breakable. We live in a time of constant comparison. Social media drowns us in highlight reels and overnight success stories. But what most people don’t see is the grit behind it all. The reps. The quiet mornings. The sacrifices. The failures.
You are just getting started. Keep Getting After It.
