#15: Do the work

In this episode — recorded straight from the kitchen (for maybe the last time!) — Ben invites you to explore a deeper reason behind last week’s challenge: the 24-hour fast. Spoiler alert: it’s not about weight loss.

This is about you building grit, discipline, and emotional control in a world that makes it way too easy to stay comfortable.

You’ll discover:

• Why it’s not the food, but your reaction to hunger and stress that trips you up

• How small, hard challenges (like fasting or burpees) can reshape your mindset

• What happens when you remove the excuses and finally take back control

• How your emotional responses in life mirror your reactions to discomfort

• Why closing the gap between your competence and confidence matters more than you think

By the end, you’ll walk away with practical tools to stop avoiding discomfort — and start using it to become more resilient, more self-aware, and more proud of the person you’re becoming.

🎯 “It’s not about doing what’s easy. It’s about doing what’s necessary.”
