Ep 273 Die Empty ft. Brian Alsruhe

 
 

In the words of our inspiring guest today… 

We were made for greatness but we continue to settle behind half-truths and useless excuses, building walls and masks, hoping that no one will see who we truly are underneath. 

It is time for a change. We can be that change.”  ~Brian Alsruhe  

Today’s episode dives DEEP into the human spirit and what it looks like to overcome the many challenges that life throws at us. 

We believe 100% that You Are Strong By Design and in order to fix this broken world, we must stand strong, seek truth in all things, be grateful for our many blessings and never give up on ourselves or those we care about. 

Leave it all on the field and die empty friends. 

 

“When you start talking to people, especially when you get past the standard conversation, it’s amazing how many people have these tragic things in their life, and how many people can relate to it in so many different ways… We’re all just going through stuff. We should be nice to each other.”
