Listen "Tom Raynham: The Cost of Wanting More"
Episode Synopsis
What if the person saving lives is also quietly pushing the limits of his own?
Tom Raynham is a medical student. But he’s not just learning how to treat the body—he’s been testing his own, training for his first marathon while navigating one of the most brutal academic programs in the world.
In today’s episode, we dive into the mental endurance behind medicine, why getting paid by the hour might be a trap, and Tom’s unfiltered take on the Enhanced Games—where human limits are challenged by science, ethics, and ego.
This conversation isn’t about motivation—it’s about the moments you break, and what you find on the other side.
Welcome to a story of ambition, pressure, and performance. This is not just another episode. This is a wake-up call.
