This podcast is a deep, raw conversation tracing the guest’s journey from early childhood trauma and identity loss through sports, mental health struggles, and a near-suicidal breaking point, to rebuilding his life through running, discipline, and purpose. He explains how trauma rewires the brain, how environment and resilience shape outcomes, and how taking life “one step at a time” became both a survival strategy and a philosophy for ultrarunning and life. The episode ultimately centers on perspective, mental and physical health, and the belief that true health is having the ability—and mindset—to build the life you want, regardless of where you start.
