About this episode

Can You Play Hurt? The Secret to Winning When Life Knocks You Down

Can you still show up and perform when everything in you wants to quit? Because THAT is what separates the greats from everyone else.


In this episode, I’m asking you to take a hard look at yourself—how do you perform on the tough days? When you’re sick, tired, heartbroken, or facing a setback, do you shut down… or do you step up?


I share the incredible story of Cade Belyeu, a college baseball player who hit his first home run of the season just hours after losing his mother. I break down why our most defining moments often come when we’re at our lowest and why playing hurt is the key to separating yourself from the pack. Whether it’s in business, sports, or life, the ability to push through pain and keep moving forward is what creates legends.


It’s time to stop sitting in your pain and start using it. There’s a gift waiting for you on the other side—if you’re willing to fight for it.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why your breaking point is actually your building point
  • The truth about playing hurt—and why it’s the ultimate separator
  • How Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and Kobe Bryant became legends by pushing through pain
  • The power of taking action while you’re still healing
  • Why some of your biggest wins will come on your hardest days


This might not be what you want to hear—but it’s exactly what you need to hear. So step up. Get back in the fight. And let’s go max out your life.
