What are you willing to give up?

This episode is different from my usual style, in light of what has happened affecting especially my friends in the US, it has made me reflective and it moved to me dwelling over this topic for a good couple of hours. Doing something great always calls for sacrifice. Greatness is about affecting the people around you in a positive way or overcoming great challenges or adversity. So the question is, what are you willing to give up to achieve your goals and dreams? Thank you so much for your support and for listening.

I had the pleasure of having Shadia on the show, she is not a DDPY Warrior, but that doesn't mean there is nothing meaningful to learn. It's a story many of us can identify with, I included. It was not easy keeping my composure as I remembered my own experiences and used that as a base to get her to share deeper about her journey. As with any challenge, there are different factors that make each one unique, so we all have to listen and learn from each other, to give us the best tools and frame of mind to tackle them.

I do this podcast as a labour of love and wanting to get more stories from the thousands of DDPYOGA Warriors out there. Paul is one of many who inspires me every single day to just get off my ass and hit the mat.
