It was in that moment, with the support of his wife, he realized that he was here for a reason.
I think THAT part is so important. We all have a low point and we don't allow ourselves to honestly reflect on what it means, what should I be learning from this, what am I meant to do next. Don't live in your low point, learn from it.
We also emphasize how Gratitude really is the key to us living a life of purpose. It is something that is always available to you no matter how bad any situation may be. It is also a PRACTICE. It isn't always easy to be grateful or to choose gratitude but it is our responsibility if we want to maximize our possibility.

The genesis of SoulCycle and how it use to be, her personal and professional development on and off the bike, the potentially pernicious impact of social media, a pinch of savage lol, and, most importantly, EMPOWERMENT.
This episode marks the close of season one of the podcast! Words cant express the amount of gratitude I have for those who have participated and contributed up until this point. Season 2 is going to be phenomenal and will coalesce, to an even greater extent, around the importance of empowerment and its many facets, as well as ways to implement real change/action in one's life and mindset. Mark my words. Keep ascending.
