Joe Gagnon, ultra-endurance athlete and author of Living Intentionally, reveals how leaving a high-stress career, embracing discomfort, and building daily habits led him to clarity, resilience, and deep self-acceptance.

In this episode, Joe explains how his Three Cs — Courage, Commitment, and Consistency — create lasting transformation, why failure is a teacher, and how plant-based nutrition, movement, and reflection support both mental and physical performance.

From running six marathons on six continents to breaking open emotionally during a 200-mile race, Joe shares how learning to love himself changed everything — and how you can apply the same principles to your own life.
