Episode 196: Get Rid of Safety Nets

In this episode, our Chief Victory Officer, Eric Guy, is joined by the CEO of Mackin Engineering, Zach Olawski. Zach and his girlfriend, Amanda, recently completed the rim-to-rim hike of the Grand Canyon with our AMP team. Zach and Eric reflect on their journey from the rim-to-rim hike of the Grand Canyon and speak on embracing life without the usual safety nets. Tune in as they dive into stories of endurance, growth, and the lessons learned when leaving comfort zones behind.

Takeaways:

• Commit Fully, No Matter the Risk: Zach’s journey reinforced the value of diving into goals without backup plans. This mindset not only helps in tackling personal challenges but also pushes boundaries in professional growth.
• Embrace Discomfort to Unlock Resilience: The physical and mental challenges on the trail, especially with Zach’s knee injury, show how embracing discomfort can transform our approach to obstacles, giving us the resilience to keep going even when things get tough.
• Strengthened Bonds through Shared Challenges: Shared experiences, especially those involving struggle, can forge deeper connections and support networks, which are crucial in building resilience and trust within personal and professional relationships.
• Translating Adventure Lessons into Everyday Life: The hike serves as a metaphor for tackling life’s mountains, reminding us that the commitment, discomfort, and resilience we build through challenges can propel us forward in all areas of life.
