Episode Synopsis

Despite being the internet's premier expert on cold plunging, saunas, and other biohacking tools… Today's episode with David Maus Jr. took a turn down a far more vulnerable road.    Why?   Because before David was a health and wellness content creator, he had a very different career. He worked in the family car business for 20 years. He was the VP and face of the brand.    But he decided to quit his job a couple of years ago because he felt like something was missing. He was great at selling cars and made great money, but he lacked fulfillment. He didn't want to just tolerate life, he wanted to be passionate about it.    And since more growth is unlocked from vulnerable conversations, that's the route we went down.    Here's what David and I discuss on this episode:    How David came to the tough decision to quit his job (and how it strained the relationship with his dad)  Why David's faith kept him grounded and confident during turbulent times  How to create a life that brings you ultimate joy    And more, including these highlights:    Why jumping into an ice cold river can completely eliminate your crushing brain fog, fatigue, and even burnout (5:56)  How to build your own DIY cold plunge in 10 minutes without shelling out $13,000 for one (12:22)  What led Dave to making a decision to leave his family's car business after 20 years experience to start a YouTube channel (25:00)  Why faith can make it easier to make a life-changing decision when you don't know whether it's the right move or not (30:41)  How sharing who you are (instead of what you do) online can almost magically connect you to others who are more like you (42:06)  Why you can gain a lot from hearing others' religious beliefs (even when you disagree) (51:19)    Listen now!   Resources mentioned in this episode:    1.
