Nick Sorrell is a Strength and Nutrition Coach based out of Louisville, KY. Nick spends his time getting people lean, writing nonsensical content on his website, and occasionally intercepting a pass or two.

Nick has been a guest on the show numerous times. But this is the first time in over two years that he's been on the show without other guests.

We dive into a ton of deep stuff in this episode. And I will warn you: you may get burned listening to this. Nick has a big heart, but he's not afraid to drop the truth when it needs to be said.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Overthinking shit
  • The importance of ritual
  • Worrying about the wrong things
  • Quest Hero bars
  • Getting caught up in the flashy
  • Lack of action, not knowledge is keeping you from achieving your goals
  • Spinning his wheels

  • Put up with the suck, then be something he doesn’t want to be
  • Getting lucky, and being grateful for not wasting his opportunities
  • Wanting things versus making them happen (Carolina Blue Dream)
  • 9 Things Out of Diet and Exercise that You Won’t Get
  • Telling yourself that you can’t achieve what you want
  • Using outliers to validate your issues
  • Jordan Peterson and the dragon
  • Words we mess up spelling all the time
  • Dying unhappy
  • Why he struggles to write
  • Being a dreamer by nature
  • The story of Cain and Abel, and the power of sacrifice
  • The x-factor that the most successful clients have that others don’t
