Not all of us are ultramarathon athletes, extreme sports enthusiasts, or adrenaline junkies. And we don’t need to be, to learn the same life lessons taught in these intense scenarios. In today’s episode, we find out how hanging onto a chain 1500 feet off the ground taught everyman Chris Goodman three essential life lessons, and how you can apply them to your own life. Over the course of a retreat to Zion National Park, Chris climbed a mountain, hiked a canyon, and raced an ATV over the desert. Tune in to find out how each of these experiences taught Chris that he is stronger, can go further and faster than he thought. While these eye-opening experiences are unique, the perspective gained from them applies to all aspects of life; you simply need a guide to push you. When a coach goes faster, you keep up. Discover how Chris leaned into the chaos, and what this can do for you. He breaks down conditioning yourself to believe in yourself and advises on getting out of living life in the slow lane. Whether it’s your physical, emotional, or professional metaphorical gas tank that feels empty, there are ways to dig deep and succeed; you only have to go all in. Don’t miss out on exploring your potential in this exciting episode!
