Celebrating 5 Years of the University of Adversity Podcast With Lance Essihos
In the milestone episode '5 years' of the University of Adversity podcast, our host Lance takes a reflective look at the transformative impact the show has had since its conception. Inspired by Gary Vee's 'Crushing It,' Lance initiated this journey with a focus on transforming personal struggles into a source of empowerment. Over half a decade, the podcast has fostered not just a community that shares poignant stories of overcoming adversities, but also nurtured a space built on genuine connections, fostering confidence, and aiding others in building their brands.
With authenticity at the forefront, Lance divulges his own vulnerabilities, admitting the initial challenge of feeling unworthy. Yet, through the process, he realized the incredible upliftment that an intimate conversation could bring, both to himself and the listener. The University of Adversity has since become a beacon of heart-centered communication, enabling nearly 500 episodes of dynamic and inspiring discussions. There has been a significant evolution of the podcast, highlighting the importance of clear intention, heartfelt openness, and taking actions aligned with one's aspirations. Lance's passion for breath work and his continuous strides towards integrating transformative healing practices is evident, particularly his enthusiasm for an upcoming program and app to democratize this wellness tool.
The podcast serves as a testament to Lance's journey and celebrates the sheer volume of support and opportunities it has provided, marking a legacy of personal brand enhancement and professional opportunities. Listeners are encouraged to explore deeper into Lance's experiences and the wisdom shared over the years through his book, 'Mastering Adversity: Unlock the Warrior Within,' and the podcast episodes themselves.
