Here on the podcast we talk a lot about choosing an old-fashioned path. Sometimes that’s skills like cooking or gardening, but other times, it’s a definitive choice in how we choose to think and move through life. I believe one of the most powerful old-fashioned practices we can adopt is to push against the modern victim mindset.
Today I’m thrilled to be joined by Mike Roberts of The Converse Cowboy. We’re diving deep into mental toughness, battling the resistance, and more in this philosophical episode!
