Have you ever been in a situation where you knew what you needed to do, but you couldn’t seem to get started? Maybe you knew you needed to lose weight, but every time you went to the gym, you bailed out at the last minute. Or you knew you needed to improve your grades, but you didn’t have the motivation or the time to study. The truth is, that our mindset is the key to everything we want in life. Too often we wait until we’ve hit rock bottom before doing something about it.

In this episode, we’re joined by a man who knows what it’s like to hit rock bottom and bounce back. Jem Fuller has lived a life of extremes.
