Ryan shares the hard truth that discipline, not hustle, is the real path to freedom in your video business. He breaks down the three key strategies that helped him build a seven-figure agency while working only three days a week: understanding the difference between working in vs. on your business, setting clear quarterly priorities, and implementing time blocking. This solo episode is a wake-up call for video business owners who are stuck reacting to whatever's in front of them instead of intentionally building toward their goals. Key Takeaways Work ON your business, not just IN it - Schedule regular CEO time for vision-setting, process creation, and strategic planning instead of only doing shoots, edits, and admin work Focus on one clear quarterly goal - Break down annual goals into quarterly milestones with clearly defined "done" criteria, then create weekly tasks to achieve them Implement time blocking - Create themed days or dedicated blocks for different types of work (deep work, admin, marketing, sales) to stay focused and avoid distractions Hope isn't a strategy - While hope is important, you need a focused plan and the discipline to execute it consistently to achieve real business growth In This Episode  [00:00] Welcome to the show!

You can't grow any other way." - Ryan Koral "Discipline is the price of freedom." - Ryan Koral (quoting Elton True Blood from the 1920s) "Hope isn't a strategy. You must have hope. You should have hope... But the problem is that we get stuck in this like just hoping that our previous project is going to get our next work." - Ryan Koral "Excellence comes at a price and one of the major prices is that of inner control." - Ryan Koral (quoting Elton True Blood) "Being the best filmmaker isn't the thing that has helped this business be around for 20 years...

Healing isn't linear—and comfort is killing your progress. In this episode, we get real about why true metabolic flexibility (mTOR & AMPK), fasting vs. feasting, building muscle, electrolytes/hydration, and strategic protocols all demand seasons of intentional discomfort. We unpack the classic mistake: doing the right thing at the wrong time, wrong dose, or wrong order, and why your SIBO protocol, keto phase, or GI-MAP obsession didn't fix the terrain (liver, gallbladder, adrenals, stomach acid, biofilm, mold) that caused it. We also hit business, marriage, and mindset: new levels, new devils—and how to keep going when flares hit and faith is all you've got. *** Get Your Tickets Now: Use code REVIVAL for $100 discount ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FitMom | UNSTUCK: The Women's Health & Hormone Summit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** Gut & Hormones all messed up? ⁠⁠⁠➡️ Take the quiz⁠⁠⁠ ***

Sanjay Singh is a thoughtful strategist, seasoned executive, and business philosopher whose journey to leading the iconic Cleveland brand Mace Security—and his reflections on it—are remarkable.Sanjay's story weaves together a deep appreciation for manufacturing and a career shaped by curiosity, resilience, and a knack for doing hard things—ultimately culminating in a personal philosophy grounded in introspection and presence.From navigating activist shareholders during a turnaround at Mace to developing frameworks around fear, ego, inquiry, and deep intuition, Sanjay offers a unique lens into what it means to lead with vulnerability and intention.This conversation leans more philosophical than most Lay of The Land episodes—a reflection of Sanjay's clarity of thought, deep presence, and his insights into consciousness and awareness.

In this episode of the Trail Network Podcast, Hilary Yang and Katie Asmuth reconnect for a conversation about what comes after the finish line—specifically Hilary's recovery from the Hardrock 100 and Katie's win at the Tahoe Trail 50K. Hilary shares the mental and physical roller coaster of post-race recovery, from breathing freely again to jogging in Canada with a renewed sense of freedom. She and Katie reflect on the importance of giving space for rest, honoring the magnitude of what the body has just accomplished, and resisting the urge to jump to the next goal too quickly.Katie opens up about what it meant to feel her racing fire return at Tahoe after a long injury comeback. She describes the mental breakthrough of trusting her body again and feeling genuinely competitive, even after a frustrating mid-race navigation issue. With Leadville on the horizon, Katie dives into what excites her most: the opportunity to problem-solve at high altitude and test herself in a whole new way.The conversation widens to the broader themes of identity, resilience, and how trail running becomes a mirror for who we are and how we grow. They explore how transformation can happen through hard things—whether that's a hundred-mile race, an injury comeback, or simply getting out the door when life is pulling in a million directions. They honor the unique strength of trail running's varied bodies and stories, and answer listener questions about body image, race gear, and how to find your first 100-miler.This episode is both grounding and uplifting—reminding us that there's power in the process, beauty in the imperfection, and growth in simply showing up.This episode is edited and produced by the Sandyboy Productions Podcast Network.A special thank you to Osprey for supporting this episode.

Most people think Crohn's is all about pain. But what if the real issue is inflammation you can't feel, and what if healing it doesn't have to start with pharmaceuticals?In this episode of The Well Drop, I sit down with my 13-year-old son, Brandon, to talk about his journey with Crohn's disease, from diagnosis at age 8 to trying every healing modality under the sun: liquid diets, Ayurveda, stool testing, peptides, and more. We dive into what it's really like to manage a chronic condition as a kid, why his labs looked terrible even when he felt fine, and how one immune-modulating peptide changed everything.Brandon shares his unfiltered perspective on mindset, medical systems, and what it's like to be the kid who brings beetroot crystals and Kate Farms to school lunch. Whether you're a parent, a practitioner, or just curious about what's possible outside of conventional care, this conversation is honest, surprising, and full of insights that could shift how you think about inflammation and healing.Brandon Berger is a 13-year-old student, foodie, and wellness warrior who was diagnosed with Crohn's disease at age 8.

Sometimes we are given opportunities to choose to tackle a challenge so that God can shape us and make us stronger. Join Daniel and Cindy Harper as they discuss the strength we can gain through adversity.

There's something powerful that happens when we choose to do the hard things—not because we have to, but because we know that's where growth lives. In this episode, we talk about the science and soul of resilience: how doing what's uncomfortable actually rewires our brains, strengthens our relationships, and expands what's possible in our lives. We're not talking about hustle or burnout—we're talking about conscious courage. The kind that builds self-trust, deepens love, and reminds us that we can do hard things—and come out stronger, more alive, and more connected. Let's go there. Together.

This episode is a celebration of something REALLY special—our newly launched “I Can Do Hard Things” Infertility Journal!

In this episode of PivotMe, April dives deep into the age-old productivity wisdom: “Eat the frog first.” But this isn't just about task lists—it's about courage, action, and momentum. April breaks down why high performers don't avoid hard things; they just do them faster. With raw stories, practical insights, and a splash of humor, this episode will challenge listeners to stop delaying and start leaping. Key Takeaways: What the Frog Really Is: It's that hard conversation, overdue decision, or the lingering task you keep pushing off. And it's costing you peace and progress. The Myth of Graduation: You don't outgrow difficult tasks. Successful people just build the muscle to handle them faster and messier. 10 Seconds of Courage: You don't need hours of motivation—just ten seconds of brave action to shift everything. Momentum Matters: Eating one frog builds energy to tackle the next. Success is a domino effect—just start. Don't Over-Prepare: High performers don't “perfectly plan” their attack on the frog—they just move. They wreck it. They move on. Quote from the Episode: “Frogs don't disappear when you get more successful. They just get bigger—and you get better at eating them.” Actionable Items: Identify the “frog” you've been avoiding—name it. Set a timer and give yourself 10 seconds of bravery to leap. Don't wait for permission, motivation, or perfection—just move. Use the momentum from one win to build into the next. Hard things don't go away. But you don't need less frogs—you need more courage. Eat the frog, eat it fast, and watch how your confidence and success compound. --------- Want to be part of a transformative experience for entrepreneurs and leaders?

Remora, founded in 2020 in Michigan, retrofits diesel locomotives and semi-trucks with onboard systems that capture, liquify, and purify up to 90% of CO₂ emissions – while also cutting soot, particulates, and NOₓ – then stores it for offloading and sale, sharing revenue with operators. Backed by $117 M in venture funding and piloting with major players like Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, Ryder, Werner, and DHL, the company overcame early design issues (like waterlogging and backpressure) and is now scaling for broader deployment.–Paul is the co-founder and CEO at Remora. In 2021, he was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. He earned his bachelor's degree in Statistics and Data Science from Yale University, where his research received the Porter Prize, the highest class-wide thesis prize.–In this podcast, we talked about how they got investors excited to invest $117M, why unit economics are so important, the joy of doing hard things, why expertise is overrated, the reason why reading biographies is so helpful, how he got the idea for this company as a senior at Yale University, why you should watch the movies Tommy Boy and Braveheart, and how the cost of capital influenced his choice of business model.–

Message from Greg Neal on June 22, 2025

In Auden's poem “The Art of Healing,” he writes that “every sickness is a musical problem and every cure a musical solution.” Jazz and health care are two things we normally don't think about together, let alone in the context of mental health. This conversation was recorded at the 2024 Practice & Presence gathering between theological ethicist Patrick Smith and physician and writer Brewer Eberly. They explores jazz and medicine as moral practice. How does jazz draw out metaphors that help us think about health care and clinical relationships differently? How does jazz teach us to lament and work with uncertainty? As we consider the hard things we have been made to see and hear in health care, how might jazz—a form of art born of oppression and pain—disrupt complacency and awaken us to new ways to live and to heal and to sing?

My guest is Michael Easter, a professor at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and best-selling author. We discuss how particular daily life choices undermine our level of joy, our sense of purpose, our physical and our mental health and the daily, weekly, monthly and yearly steps we can all take to vastly increase our level of motivation, gratitude and overall life satisfaction. We discuss how effortful foraging for information, undistracted reflection and physical exercise are ways to ‘invest' and therefore grow our levels of dopamine, energy and motivation, whereas low-friction activities are specifically designed to hijack or diminish them.

Summary:In this Coaches Roundtable Q&A episode, Chase and Chris dive into some really good listener questions. They start off by talking about how life gets really busy in the summer and why it's so hard for people to lean on support when they need it most. They explain that asking for help doesn't mean you're doing more—it can actually mean doing less and making things easier. They also answer a question about how to deal with shin pain when starting to jog and give some helpful stretches and tips. Finally, they discuss how to build a mindset that lets you do hard things, even if you struggle with being a perfectionist. You'll learn why doing your best—even if it isn't perfect—is what matters most.Chapters:(00:00) Why It's Hard to Ask for Help(02:00) Leaning Into Support Instead of Avoiding It(05:57) Less Can Be More: Scaling Back Goals(08:29) How Talking It Out Lifts the Weight(09:53) How to Take Action Even When Life Gets Messy(10:16) Q&A: How to Handle Shin Pain from Jogging(13:14) Q&A: Building an "I Can Do Hard Things" Mindset(16:41) Why Perfection Isn't the Goal(19:06) Focusing on Progress, Not Perfection(22:14) The Power of Steady Progress Over Burnout(24:12) Final Thoughts & Podcast UpdatesSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

The hosts of the blockbuster podcast We Can Do Hard Things share a fresh guide to being alive and answer life's most difficult questions. Every day, Glennon Doyle spirals around the same questions: Why am I like this? How do I figure out what I want? How do I know what to do? Why can't I be happy? Am I doing this right? The harder life gets, the less likely she is to remember the answers she's spent her life learning. In a particularly difficult year, Glennon was diagnosed with anorexia, her sister Amanda was diagnosed with breast cancer, and her wife Abby's beloved brother died. For the first time, they were all lost at the same time. So they asked each other, their dearest friends, and 118 of the world's most brilliant wayfinders, among them, Jane Fonda, Brandi Carlile, Esther Perel and Ocean Vuong what wisdom might help others find their way. Now they share their discoveries. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Abby Wambach, a trailblazer in women's soccer, shares how facing life's challenges after retirement helped her discover truth, healing, and self-love. Summary: Abby Wambach spent years chasing excellence as a world-class athlete, only to find that winning gold didn't bring the inner fulfillment she craved.

One rooted in vulnerability and the courage to be fully seen.This episode was supported by a grant from The John Templeton Foundation on Spreading Love Through The media.How To Do This Practice:  Acknowledge the belief that achievement or perfection will make you feel whole.

Choose to live openly instead of hiding parts of yourself to fit others' expectations. Ask yourself where your beliefs about worthiness and shame come from. Keep coming back to love and accept yourself, especially the parts you were taught to hide.

Description: In the span of a single year, Abby Wambach lost her beloved brother, her wife Glennon Doyle  was diagnosed with anorexia, and her sister-in-law Amanda Doyle was diagnosed with breast cancer. For the first time, the trio who host the wildly popular We Can Do Hard Things podcast, all found themselves simultaneously lost, looking for answers. So they turned toward the only thing that's ever helped them find their way: deep, honest conversations with other brave, kind, wise people. What resulted from those conversations was a myriad of guideposts, words of wisdom from some of the most brilliant wayfinders in the zeitgeist today. In this episode, Jen and Amy talk with Abby and Amanda about some of the most meaningful bits of guidance that they have received from inspirational voices like Elizabeth Gilbert, Jane Fonda, Michelle Obama, Ocean Vuong, Esther Perel,  Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, and others that they have gathered into a new book called, We Can Do Hard Things: Answers to Life's 20 Questions. Some of the conversations they delve into include: Why are we like this? How do we figure out what we really want? How do we let go, or forgive, or get unstuck? Why do we wake up every day having forgotten everything we know? Why self-loyalty is so damn hard for women? Thought-provoking Quotes: “I'm just trying to remain a human in this political environment, in this place of deep fear where so much is at risk. And I think the way we do that is continuing to see each other as human and continuing to let our hearts break over what should break our hearts.” – Amanda Doyle “Having played on many different teams, I'm well suited to work well with others. I just have to be here and be myself. That is the way that I add value. I am not gonna add value in the way that Glennon and Amanda do. I know that. But that doesn't give me any lack of confidence because I know I bring something to the team.” – Abby Wambach “After 400 or so conversations, it was so wild that, whether we were talking to a person who's been a therapist for 40 years, or a person who's a poet, or a person who's an activist, there were just a handful of questions that all of these people are struggling with. The smartest people in the world are trying to figure out the same things that we are.” – Amanda Doyle Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Forward: A Memoir by Abby Wambach - https://amzn.to/4ckZOFi WOLFPACK: How to Come Together, Unleash Our Power, and Change the Game by Abby Wambach - https://amzn.to/4cpazqg We Can Do Hard Things: Answers to Life's 20 Questions by Glennon Doyle, Abby Wambach, and Amanda Doyle - https://amzn.to/3EfeZ6r Glennon Doyle - https://momastery.com/ Amanda Doyle Stops Keeping Score And Stays In The Moment - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-60/amanda-doyle-stops-keeping-score-and-stays-in-the-moment/ Brené Brown - https://brenebrown.com/ Kate Bowler - https://katebowler.com/about/ Suzanne Stabile - https://suzannestabile.com/ Guest's Links: Website - https://abbywambach.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/abbywambach/ Twitter - https://x.com/abbywambach Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/abbywambach/ Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCej3anJvC-rSMd63asN8cXg Podcast - https://wecandohardthingspodcast.com/ Guest's Links: Twitter - https://x.com/amandafdoyle Podcast - https://wecandohardthingspodcast.com/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.
