Send us a text

Today's episode is one I am so happy to share with you all. I have followed him for years and this was one of the most value packed conversations I've had.


 Our guest today is Greg Everett (@Catalyst Athletics), who is a world renowned olympic weightlifting coach, elite competitor in the tactical games, author,  was a nationally ranked weightlifting competitor himself, and all around bad ass.


He just released his new book, Tough: Building True Mental, Physical, & Emotional Toughness For Success & Fulfillment


Toughness consists of 4 interdependent components:
1. Character
2.Capability
3.Capacity
4. Commitment


We dive into each of these and how they apply directly to your life and how to develop these traits.


We were able to discuss some of his past experiences and current habits along with the practices and tactics of people like Marcus Aurelius (Roman Emperor) & Viktor Fankl (A Man's Search for Meaning) so we can go through adversity and not be psychologically wrecked but come back EVEN better after it.


I would highly recommend  grabbing his new book, it's a decision that you will not regret.
