#217: Why You Should Never 'Start Over' Again (The Reset Trap That's Ruining Your Progress)
About this episode
What happens when your kid asks you to take a hard look at your health? Arnold shares a raw, personal story will challenge everything you knw about comebacks and resilience.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Why the "reset mentality" is sabotaging your long-term success
- The difference between obsessive and harmonious passion (and which one leads to burnout)
- Adam's incredible story of training through injury while becoming a new dad
- The simple temperature hack that can increase your deep sleep and lower your resting heart rate
- Why detours aren't setbacks—they're actually your progress in disguise
This isn't another "bounce back stronger" story. This is about the messy middle part nobody talks about. It's about finding strength not in being unbreakable, but in what you do when you can't perform your best.
