    Episode 152: 8 Years Later

    Welcome to Episode 152 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar start with a simple catch-up that moves from winter weather and Valentine’s plans into something deeper. A trip back to Moab sparks a reflection on time, memory, and how fast eight years can pass without you realizing it. What begins as stories about Delicate Arch parking chaos and the unreal views at Dead Horse Point turns into a bigger conversation about perspective and how revisiting old places forces you to confront who you were versus who you are now. The heart of this episode centers on growth through change. Edgar opens up about stepping into a new role within his business after eight years of building Endless Auto Styling from a name written on a high school paper to a full operation with employees. They talk about risk, timing, and how sometimes you feel a shift coming before it actually happens. Luck, preparation, and opportunity collide in real time. Alex and Edgar also dig into self-evaluation, mastery, and the uncomfortable early stages of learning anything new. They discuss why most people quit too early, why repetition builds confidence, and how becoming truly skilled at something creates leverage in life. There is an honest conversation about money, fulfillment, ambition, and the realization that success without balance can feel empty. They wrap up by reflecting on aging, gratitude, and a powerful reminder that reaching another year is not guaranteed. The conversation lands on perspective, sleep, longevity, and the importance of appreciating where you are right now while still pushing forward. If you have ever felt a shift coming, questioned whether you are behind, or wondered what mastery really requires, this episode will hit home.

    Episode 151: Growth Happens Quietly

    Welcome to Episode 151 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar settle into one of those conversations that starts light and slowly turns reflective, moving from hiking plans and outdoor hobbies to deeper thoughts about risk, habits, stress, and the way time quietly moves forward whether you act or not. The episode begins with a talk about a spontaneous trip to Moab, and the different ways people chase that feeling of being alive, whether it’s running, hiking, biking, or exploring the outdoors. What starts as casual conversation turns into a bigger question about what kind of life you actually want to build, and how easy it is to drift if you never decide. From there, the discussion shifts into ambition, business ideas, and the fear that keeps people stuck. Alex and Edgar talk about calculated risks, option paralysis, and how social media can make success look simple while hiding the years of effort behind it. They reflect on how uncertainty feels uncomfortable, but staying still for too long can be just as dangerous. The heart of the episode lands on mindset and perspective. They talk about stress, expectations, and the tendency to live in the future instead of experiencing the present. There’s an honest look at anxiety, overthinking, and the discipline it takes to focus only on what you can control, even when life keeps throwing unexpected problems your way. They wrap up by reflecting on consistency, three years of recording, and what it means to keep showing up even when the path isn’t perfectly clear. As always, thanks for listening! 00:12 Reflecting on the Guest Episode 01:09 Weekend Plans and Valentine's Getaway 02:22 Running and Fitness Talk 07:47 Biking Adventures and Preferences 12:07 Outdoor Hobbies and Interests 22:23 Mindset and Personal Growth 41:17 Pet Health Concerns 41:40 Childhood Memories and Dumpster Diving 45:18 Survival Skills and TV Shows 49:28 Starting a TV Show 56:20 Taking Risks and Making Decisions 01:05:37 Life Lessons and Aging 01:19:03 Reflecting on the Podcast Journey

    Episode 150: Love, Lawsuits, and Real Life (Featuring Mohammad)

    Welcome to Episode 150 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar sit down with Mohammad, a divorce and family law attorney who shares what really happens behind the scenes when marriages break down and what people often wish they had known before things reached that point. Mohammad talks about his path into law, how family law ended up choosing him, and what it’s like advocating for clients in some of the most emotional and high-stakes moments of their lives. The conversation dives into how divorces actually unfold, the real costs people don’t always expect, and why preparation and early conversations can make a massive difference. The guys also explore topics that don’t get talked about enough: the role of prenups, why financial expectations and lifestyle pressures often lead to conflict, and how social media and modern dating have changed relationships. Mohammad shares practical advice on how to recognize a good attorney, what discovery and mediation really look like, and why consulting early can protect people from serious long-term consequences. From there, the conversation shifts into a bigger discussion about marriage itself. Despite seeing the worst cases, Mohammad explains why he still believes marriage is important, what healthy couples tend to do differently, and why trust, leadership, and clear communication can shape the direction of a relationship over time. The episode closes with reflections on integrity, long-term goals, and Mohammad’s vision of eventually helping more people who can’t afford legal representation. Whether you’re curious about relationships, interested in law, or just want a raw and honest conversation about marriage in the modern world, this episode brings a perspective most people never hear.

    Episode 149: The Weight of Awareness

    Welcome to Episode 149 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar sit down for a conversation that starts casual and quickly turns inward, touching on discipline, relationships, burnout, and what it really means to feel like you’re moving forward even when nothing around you seems to change. The conversation dives into risk, injuries, mortality, and the reminder that you only get one body, one brain, one shot. They reflect on how quickly life can shift, how repeated exposure to chaos can desensitize you, and why being intentional with your habits and decisions matters. It becomes a grounded discussion on awareness, self-preservation, and how being cautious doesn’t mean you’re scared to live. The heart of the episode lives in relationships and self-awareness. Alex opens up about attachment styles, communication, reassurance, and the uncomfortable work that happens behind the scenes in healthy partnerships. They break down independence vs. connection, why over-communicating can sometimes be necessary, and how growth often means questioning your own patterns instead of blaming others. They also dig into ambition, comparison, burnout, and the pressure of feeling “behind” while still knowing you’re blessed. From career uncertainty to identity being tied to the gym or work, the episode wrestles with the tension between wanting more and learning what “enough” actually means. They wrap things up with reflections on curiosity, discomfort, small habits, and why growth doesn’t always look loud or viral. Sometimes it’s just asking better questions, staying consistent, and putting yourself slightly in the fire without living there. Thanks for joining us for another one. We're blessed to have the ability to do this. 3  01:22 Unexpected Sponsor and Car Talk 03:27 Prime Shake and Logan Paul Discussion 06:00 Snowboarding Injuries and Safety 07:50 Warren Buffett's Life Advice 16:10 Attachment Theory in Relationships 31:01 Self-Improvement and Motivation 40:20 February Plans and Holidays 40:54 Travel Planning and Group Coordination 41:42 Business and Economic Reflections 44:29 Gym Routines and Personal Growth 46:33 Life Challenges and Perseverance 48:28 Reflections on Success and Failure 01:07:18 The Importance of Asking Questions 01:18:25 Concluding Thoughts and Positivity

    Episode 148: When Life Starts Shifting

    Welcome to Episode 148 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar settle into another one of those conversations that feels light at first, then quietly turns into a real reflection on work, aging, relationships, and how life starts shifting when you least expect it. They kick things off with updates on changing routines, recording schedules, and the idea of taking the podcast outside, literally. From hiking pods to creative experiments, it turns into a discussion of consistency, motivation, and what it feels like to put in work without seeing results right away, plus the reality of early-year slowdowns when everyone’s focused on budgets and taxes. Then the episode swings into nostalgia. Alex shares a moment that made his teenage self proud, pulling up to see Krewella years after first discovering their music. That story turns into a bigger convo about concerts, what performers really make, aging out of certain scenes, and why spontaneous nights hit different as you get closer to 30. From there, things get deeper. They talk about friendships fading without beef, staying connected without social media, and why adult relationships survive on intention instead of convenience. It’s a real conversation about vulnerability, communication, ego, and what actually strengthens the people around you. They wrap it up with classic Endless Growth randomness, from travel planning and hot spring horror stories to sleep struggles, caffeine habits, and the weird reality of getting older while still trying to enjoy life. If you’ve ever felt caught between who you were, who you’re becoming, and who you thought you’d be by now, this one will hit home. Catch y’all on the next one! 00:25 Weekly Routine and Schedule Changes 01:07 Summer Plans and Outdoor Activities 02:48 Business Challenges and Tax Season 15:28 Concert Experience and Nostalgia 29:31 Life Reflections and Future Plans 41:39 Travel Plans and Puerto Rico 43:15 Friendship and Communication 46:37 Family and Traditions 47:50 Entrepreneurial Spirit 57:43 Sleep Struggles and Routines 01:03:31 Valentine's Day and Hot Springs 01:15:39 Health Concerns and Parasites 01:19:00 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

    Podcast 147: From Tailgating to Tough Lessons

    Welcome to Episode 147 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar settle into another one of those conversations that starts casual and slowly spirals into something way deeper than expected. They kick things off with real-life updates, including a follow-up on Alex’s cat health scare and why sometimes paying for peace of mind is worth it. From there, the episode jumps into a full Snowbasin breakdown, from icy runs and crowded lifts to day drinking on the mountain, tailgating culture, and the strange feeling of being drunk while flying downhill on a snowboard. Things take a sharp turn when Edgar shares a painful and oddly relatable weekend mishap, which opens the door to a broader conversation about reassurance, anxiety, and knowing when to take things seriously versus letting them pass. The middle of the episode turns into a wild mix of nostalgia and randomness. They bounce through old reality TV shows, tattoo culture, police body cam footage, and the fine line between entertainment and knowing your rights. What starts as jokes slowly turns into a surprisingly thoughtful discussion about public space, legality, and how easily situations can go wrong. The back half becomes a full-on car, insurance, and consumer awareness masterclass. Edgar breaks down selling his BMW, dealing with banks and liens, shady rebuilt titles, insurance lowball tactics, and the scary reality of unsafe repairs hiding behind clean paint. Alex reacts in real time as Edgar explains what most people never learn about inspections, emissions, safety checks, and how easily buyers can get burned. They wrap it all up with lessons on slowing down, thinking ahead, and why understanding how systems work, whether it’s cars, insurance, or life in general, gives you a massive edge. Thanks for tuning in for another one, Endless Fam!  00:58 Weekend Recap: Snowboarding Adventures 10:12 Unexpected Health Issues 13:57 Selling the BMW: A Detailed Breakdown 22:22 Business Ideas and Innovations 36:10 Tattoo Talk and Personal Stories 40:15 Nostalgic TV Shows and Repossession Dramas 44:58 Snowy Adventures and High School Memories 55:59 Car Accidents and Insurance Insights 01:07:54 Buying Used Cars: Tips and Red Flags 01:19:21 Concluding Thoughts and Farewell

    Episode 146: Marketplace Madness

    Welcome to Episode 146 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar ease into the new year with a conversation that starts light and casual and slowly turns into one of those unexpectedly deep, real-life breakdowns. They kick things off talking about New Year energy, routines, and why the calendar flip feels meaningful even when life stays the same. That leads straight into the chaos of New Year’s gym season, packed weights, overcrowded machines, and the unspoken rules of surviving a gym that suddenly feels twice as full. Alex shares his strategy for adapting without wasting time, while Edgar breaks down how different schedules attract completely different crowds. From there, the episode takes a weird but hilarious turn when Edgar explains a strange Tonal gym coincidence that feels like the universe nudging him to finally lock back in. They talk motivation, being all-in versus half-in, and how life priorities can quietly derail good intentions. The back half turns into a full-blown car and money conversation. Edgar walks through selling his BMW, dealing with lowballers, banks, liens, warranties, and why pricing something high can actually be the smarter move. Alex reacts in real time as Edgar breaks down how dealerships really make money, how financing quietly crushes you over time, and why selling a car privately can feel like a part-time job. They wrap it all up with a raw look at systems that feel rigged, the trade-offs between convenience and control, and why learning how things actually work changes how you move through life.

    Episode 145: Pushing Through Anyway

    Welcome to Episode 145 of The Endless Growth Podcast!  This week, Alex and Edgar kick off the first episode of the year with one of those conversations that starts as a simple check-in and somehow turns into a full breakdown of health, habits, and real-life adult problems. Edgar opens up about getting sick and his no-nonsense routine for pushing through work while his body is trying to shut down. That turns into a surprisingly funny deep dive on cold meds, Mucinex, Vicks, sweating through the night, and whether vitamin C actually helps once you are already sick. They also talk about how people really get exposed, from shaking hands to breathing the same air, and why airplanes might be the ultimate sickness trap. From there, the episode jumps into a flashback to Puerto Rico, where Edgar ended up getting COVID on the trip and had to power through with almost no medicine available. It is one of those stories that makes you appreciate feeling normal. The back half turns into a full tire saga. Edgar finds a crazy Facebook Marketplace deal that derails Alex’s original plan, and it becomes a lesson in trust, timing, and finally taking care of the stuff you keep putting off. They wrap up with a real conversation about tire warranties, saving money, and staying safe on the road. A laid back start to the year with real laughs, real stories, and the kind of random moments that end up sticking with you. 00:23 Reflecting on the Past Year 01:27 The Importance of Planning 02:17 Using Planners Effectively 03:44 Building Habits and Productivity 06:27 Starting the Year Right 06:55 Gym Tips and Staying Motivated 12:27 Dealing with Challenges and Potholes 21:56 Social Interactions and Avoidance 27:01 Meditation and Mental Focus 32:35 Reflecting on the Year 33:04 The Concept of Happiness 34:52 Mental Health Matters 35:30 Podcast Evolution 36:09 New Year's Eve Plans 37:05 Dealing with Sickness 49:42 Traveling While Sick 57:30 The Annual Hustle and Immune System Worries 58:09 Holiday Work and Icy Roads 59:38 New Year's Day Observations 01:00:40 Tire Shopping Adventures 01:02:36 Facebook Marketplace Finds 01:03:56 Tire Installation and Warranties 01:17:25 Reflecting on Past Tire Deals 01:19:56 Wrapping Up the Podcast
