Elite performers know: mental fitness needs the same intentional training as physical fitness. In this episode, we break down mental fitness into three trainable components: resilience (your mental strength), emotional regulation (your psychological endurance), and psychological flexibility (your mental mobility). Drawing from meditation research, disaster psychology, and ultra-running wisdom, we explore what often gets confused for mental toughness (toxic positivity or stoic repression) and discuss what it actually takes to respond skillfully to life's inevitable storms. Learn practical tools for processing difficulty, the critical role of community in resilience, and why your values become the roadmap when emotions narrow your world.<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aKa9WIYwD_-IuwV1edtS-abzUY9kCNbcI6o0G68FDKA/edit?usp=sharing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click here</a> for an AI-generated, unedited transcriptIf you have a question for us, send an email to clay.growtheq@gmail.com or call our voicemail at ‪(646) 893-9503‬.<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Way-Excellence-Greatness-Satisfaction-Chaotic/dp/0063385945" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click to pre-order </a>Brad's new book, "The Way of Excellence," which Steve Kerr, nine-time NBA Champion, is calling "an absolutely beautiful book"Subscribe to <a href="https://thegrowtheq.com/newsletters/geq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Growth Equation newsletter</a>If you are enjoying "excellence, actually," do us a huge favor: text your favorite episode to three people so they can enjoy it, too.
