  • Summary

  • In this episode, we’re diving into a topic that’s at the core of living a fulfilled and resilient life: the art and science of doing hard things.

    We’ll explore why stepping outside your comfort zone is essential for a happier, healthier, more fit, and longer lifespan. We’ll tie in Andrew Huberman’s research on the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC), which he calls the "willpower muscle." We’ll also unpack Michael Easter’s concept of "comfort creep" from The Comfort Crisis, and why modern convenience is holding us back. Lastly, I’ll give you actionable strategies to start embracing discomfort today.

    So, buckle up and let’s dive into why doing hard things isn’t just worth it—it’s necessary.
