Welcome to the Emotional Eats Podcast!
What are you waiting for before you really start living? What are you putting off?
Listen in for the encouragement you need to just move forward and live your life fully.
This episode hit me hard. As someone who waits too often for the perfect moment and who teaches others to stop waiting, Jim has helped me reframe what it means to live in the moment and on purpose.
James Logan, entrepreneur, endurance athlete, husband, father, and author of Just Keep Tri-ing, shares how a stage 4 terminal cancer diagnosis changed the way he sees life, suffering, faith, fear, and the time we think we have.
We talk about the difference between resilience and complacency, why avoiding discomfort may actually make life harder, and what happens when you stop waiting for the right body, more money, retirement, or life to finally calm down before allowing yourself to live.
Jim also shares what he's learned about finding joy while life is still hard, surrendering what you can't control, and why facing death ultimately taught him how to live. We are all dying, but what are we doing while we're living?
This is not just a conversation about being terminally ill, but more about how to truly live a purposeful and intentional life…now.
Follow the Emotional Eats Podcast and share this episode with someone who needs the reminder that life isn't something we have to keep waiting for.

James is currently training for the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona Hawaii October 10 2026. He is raising funds for the IRONMAN Foundation; profits from my book go to the foundation until the fundraising goal of $100,000.00 is achieved! See link below to support James.
James believes if you have faith, you have hope; if you have hope, Anything Is Possible! He dedicated the remainder of his life to service and charity.
