RFP Podcast Episode #246 – Ultra Dad Session #54: “Adversity is a gift.”

The full quote from the title above is from Jay Glazer and reads, “adversity is a gift. You find out who you are!” Some of the audience may know the name, Jay Glazer, those that do watch the NFL. He is one of the analysts, commentators on Fox’ NFL Weekend Shows. What I learned, from listening to him on the Tom Bilyeu, Impact Theory Podcast, is that he is much more. Yes, this is yet another solo adventure this week. I am beginning to miss my co-host, Mr. Bryan Shane. It is okay though, we had the chance opportunity to catch up over this past weekend on a phone call so glad to hear things are progressing forward, as we want them to, for both the families 😊. I encourage you to take a listen to the Tom Bilyeu/Jay Glazer podcast linked above, because it is a great listen and discusses much of Mr. Glazer’s battle with anxiety. But his quote above about adversity is what we dig into today. Once again, a shorter episode than usual but still wanted to share something with you all there. Thanks for the continued love and support and the RFP Ultra Dad’s will be back at you soon. Once again, no cocktails just some fine H2O😊.

Well, she planted the idea in our head after listening to the first time Bryan was on the RFP Podcast in May 2020. There have many times over the years when we speak on the phone or in person the “we should be recording this” line comes out. Well, here we are jumping in with both feet, like we tend to do, sharing with you our perspectives on life. Let’s be candid – we are not perfect, and we fail often. Our favorite term to use is “it’s not ideal” and there have been countless times we’ve uttered, “a plan is great until you are punched in the face;” – but we do laugh a lot, at ourselves and/or each other mostly 😊. All that said, there are those brief moments where things tend to fall into place and we, somehow, make it to that finish line – as ultrarunners yes, but most importantly has husbands, fathers, friends, and human beings. We wanted to share those imperfections and those incredible moments that we’ve been fortunate enough to experience together over the last 30+ years. So, sit back, grab a cold one, and hopefully this will be another time where things fall into place. Bryan & Mike
