This is for the boyz. For the Boyz that wanna change the world but need to change themselves first. For the boys that had to grow up quick. For the boys that got dealt a hard hand. For the boys that struggle to overcome your own self destructive patterns, habits, beliefs. This is me sharing absolutely everything I’ve learned in the last 10+ years of me doggedly trying to figure it all out myself. Everything that has helped me, healed me, strengthened me along the way and allowed me to build a life I love. Coming to God, healing your body, rewiring your mind, and everything in between.

Why Embracing the suffering Will Set You Free (and how freezing rivers changed my life) | Episode #2

This episode is a deeply personal narrative of how God taught me the freedom that comes through embracing necessary suffering.

I share my journey from avoiding pain and chasing comfort (the “hedonic treadmill”) to embracing suffering as a transformative gift. Through cold plunges and other forms of discomfort, learning how to sit with pain rather than run from it—developing resilience, discipline, and deep gratitude along the way.

Drawing from personal struggles, faith, health challenges, and even inspiration from books like Dopamine Nation and Mistborn, we’ll reframe suffering not as a curse but as God’s gift—a necessary crucible for becoming who we are meant to be.

The episode blends storytelling, science, philosophy, and spirituality, ultimately encouraging listeners to stop escaping discomfort and instead embrace it as the path to purpose and fulfillment.
