137: Why Willpower Fails Men in Addiction — And How Sacred Grit Builds the Nervous System Strength to Win

Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description

The strongest thing I ever did was get into cold water when I wanted to die rather than face myself.

Most men think grit means pushing harder — white-knuckling through, grinding it out, willing yourself to be different. But willpower without regulation is just suffering on a loop. 

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Willpower without regulation is just suffering
  • The most courageous thing I ever did was get in cold water when I wanted to die rather than face myself
  • Faith without works is dead — and that's not a moral instruction, it's neuroscience

Click play now if you're ready to stop white-knuckling and start doing the thing that actually changes a man from the inside out.
