Description

You hear it all the time—“I’m doing the work.”

But what does that actually mean?

In this solo episode, I dive into what personal development really looks like beyond just reading books or listening to podcasts. I share a recent day where everything went sideways—including my dog getting bit by a rattlesnake—and how that chaos tested everything I’ve been practicing.

It’s easy to feel like we’re making progress when life is smooth. But the real work shows up in how we respond when things fall apart. This episode is a raw reflection on handling adversity, perspective shifts, and the compound power of small, consistent actions.

If you’ve ever wondered whether the daily “boring” habits are worth it—this one’s for you.

In this episode:

  • What “doing the work” actually looks like
  • How my reaction to a rough day showed growth
  • Why consistency matters when life gets chaotic
  • The power of 1% improvements over time
  • A reminder to trust the process—especially when it’s hard
