Ep 4 - The Discomfort Zone

In this episode, we’re diving into the power of discomfort — why leaning into struggle is where the real growth happens.From walking 600km in 12 days for mental health, to paying off a mortgage in 4.5 years, to the small daily choices like always taking the stairs — we explore how hard things shape who you are. It’s not about punishment, but preparation: training your mind and body to handle more than you thought possible.We unpack:– Why the hardest part isn’t the pain, but waking up and doing it all again– “You don’t have to do this, you get to do this” — a mantra that pulled Tim through the darkest kilometres– How delayed gratification (and the 1972 marshmallow experiment) plays out in real life– The brain’s ancient wiring (amygdala) that confuses discomfort with danger– The line between healthy growth and burnout– Why confidence comes from action, not affirmationsQuote of the episode:“On the other side of discomfort is freedom.”If this one lands for you, share it with a mate who might need the reminder that growth is supposed to feel uncomfortable.🎙 Follow us on Instagram:Tim – ⁠@mckerncoaching⁠Luke – ⁠@l_u_k_e_o_w_e_n_s
