Welcome to Episode 145 of The Endless Growth Podcast! This week, Alex and Edgar kick off the first episode of the year with one of those conversations that starts as a simple check-in and somehow turns into a full breakdown of health, habits, and real-life adult problems.Edgar opens up about getting sick and his no-nonsense routine for pushing through work while his body is trying to shut down. That turns into a surprisingly funny deep dive on cold meds, Mucinex, Vicks, sweating through the night, and whether vitamin C actually helps once you are already sick. They also talk about how people really get exposed, from shaking hands to breathing the same air, and why airplanes might be the ultimate sickness trap.From there, the episode jumps into a flashback to Puerto Rico, where Edgar ended up getting COVID on the trip and had to power through with almost no medicine available. It is one of those stories that makes you appreciate feeling normal.The back half turns into a full tire saga. Edgar finds a crazy Facebook Marketplace deal that derails Alex’s original plan, and it becomes a lesson in trust, timing, and finally taking care of the stuff you keep putting off. They wrap up with a real conversation about tire warranties, saving money, and staying safe on the road.A laid back start to the year with real laughs, real stories, and the kind of random moments that end up sticking with you.00:23 Reflecting on the Past Year01:27 The Importance of Planning02:17 Using Planners Effectively03:44 Building Habits and Productivity06:27 Starting the Year Right06:55 Gym Tips and Staying Motivated12:27 Dealing with Challenges and Potholes21:56 Social Interactions and Avoidance27:01 Meditation and Mental Focus32:35 Reflecting on the Year33:04 The Concept of Happiness34:52 Mental Health Matters35:30 Podcast Evolution36:09 New Year's Eve Plans37:05 Dealing with Sickness49:42 Traveling While Sick57:30 The Annual Hustle and Immune System Worries58:09 Holiday Work and Icy Roads59:38 New Year's Day Observations01:00:40 Tire Shopping Adventures01:02:36 Facebook Marketplace Finds01:03:56 Tire Installation and Warranties01:17:25 Reflecting on Past Tire Deals01:19:56 Wrapping Up the Podcast
