About this episode
2020 forced and taught a lot of people to lean into the side of taking the easy road. Today we get into why it's more important than ever to do hard things and push your comfort zone. It's really easy to get obsessed with time goals, but creating challenges and experiences in life is more powerful. We get into why it's important to be fun, flexible, find the kid inside and try new things or something out of the norm. NOTE: Bring your friends or family to Chattanooga for training, fun, or relaxing in our new 4 BR, fully furnished Condo right next to the C26 Hub. Email C26Operations@gmail.com for more info.
