They explore what it really means to push past fear, get uncomfortable, and discover what you're capable of.Sam shares a story about her 79-year-old mom — who is battling breast cancer for the third time and dealing with heart and lung issues — deciding to fly to Las Vegas with her 82-year-old friend Marge for a birthday celebration. Sam initially reacted with fear, but caught herself and chose to trust her mom instead. The result? Her mom had the best time, won at Keno, and texted Sam: "I'm a traveler again." Christine points out that Sam's mom didn't let ego stop her either — she used a wheelchair at the airport and did the trip on her own terms.From there, Sam and Christine discuss an article by Joe De Sena, CEO of Spartan Race, on testing your limits.Find Your Way Off the Beaten Path — Get uncomfortable.
