Hey everyone!! We had a POWERFUL Group Call in my other community tonight, and we discussed many of our experiences with building Courage in the Face of Fear. 🙏🏻 One thing I realized we didn’t do was spend time Defining true Courage. And it is a perfect Discussion to have in this Community. ✨ So…what is true Courage, and what does it look like in reality? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

After battling Cancer at 18 years old, losing my leg, and very nearly my Life, I was broken... Or, at least, that was the Story I wrote for myself. I fell deeply into Alcoholism for a number of years to escape the Fear, the Darkness, the Demons that ran rampant through my Mind. I took my last drink on March 19th, 2022. Somewhere along the way, I learned I could never escape this Darkness, it had become a part of myself, and I simply had to let it go... It wasn't a vice I struggled to avoid, it was a negative Identity I had adopted, and I had to change my Self Image to move forward. ✨ What Identity Shift have you had to make to let go of that which did not serve you? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Anything worth Pursuing in Life will come with a great deal of Fear. It is not our job to escape this Fear, but rather Embrace it. We must learn to sit with that Fear, to become comfortable with it, and welcome it as a beautiful, terrible part of Growth… What do you most Fear in realizing your Vision? How do you work to become comfortable with this Fear? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

During my chat with @Scott Gerrard last night, we talked a lot about sacrifice and putting yourself in vulnerable positions to leave no option but Success… In this Collective, I want us to build a powerful space to have the most challenging conversations. So… Let’s chat below about what you’re Sacrificing to build your Vision? ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Nothing truly great has ever come without cost. How do we decide what cost we’re willing to pay? And more importantly, how do we decide we’re not willing to pay?

I was training at the gym tonight with a good friend and he was showing me videos of his deadlifts and asking about some pointers on his sticking points. Somewhere along the conversation, I recommended him to my Coach who is a WIZARD with form and technique… But then we also discussed how my friend and I both are naturally more brute force lifters. We don’t need Control. We don’t need Perfection. We simply need Passion to Fuel our lifts. But one side only takes us so far… It’s why I hired my coach, he is an expert in an area foreign to me. And leaning into that unknown unleashed the final Potential I needed to become the first Amputee to Squat 500 lbs ❤️‍🔥 COMMENT below “Technique” or “Force” for which side you gravitate toward. ⬇️⬇️⬇️
