In a world filled with endless possibilities, it's time to break free from the chains of limiting beliefs and unleash our power within. We often find ourselves held back by thoughts that tell us we can't achieve our dreams or become the person we truly want to be. But what if we told you that you have the ability to shape your own future?

In this episode of The Wenner Folsom Battle Tested Resiliency Podcast, we are joined by Andy Petranek, a Coach, Marine, musician, and Red Bull-sponsored athlete. We will dive into Andy's diverse background and learn how he started the Whole Life Challenge, an online fitness community. Throughout the conversation, we will touch upon the challenges Andy faced, including stagnant growth and strained relationships. These obstacles ultimately led to a breakdown, prompting Andy to reassess and question his self worth and identity beyond just his business. By realizing that external accomplishments were not a true measure of value, Andy embarked on a journey of healing and self-discovery. Now, Andy's experiences serve as a roadmap for others navigating their own life transitions. 

Tune in and discover how it can empower you to navigate your own transitions in life!
