This episode starts with a simple truth: the holidays hit everyone differently. What unfolded during a long training run on the Ravenel Bridge turned a routine “how’s it going?” into something heavier—something that demanded presence, not performance. When the night later connected to a reported suicidal person, it became clear that endurance didn’t matter nearly as much as paying attention. You may not control the outcome, but one real question, asked with care, can change the direction of someone’s story.

Takeaways:

• Stop asking surface questions—ask ones that invite real answers and listen long enough to hear them.
• Leadership and trust grow when people feel seen, remembered, and safe telling the truth.
• Keep resources ready and be willing to help someone take the next step, even if it’s uncomfortable.

What if winning had nothing to do with scoreboards and everything to do with how you love people today? Edwin Martin reframes success from outcomes to obedience, showing how one intentional conversation or courageous yes can create more impact than any trophy. He unpacks how fear of the unknown limits purpose, and why choosing what sets your soul on fire—every single morning—builds a life of momentum and meaning. Listeners walk away with practical ways to love people well, anchor their faith, and replace performance pressure with purposeful action.

You’ll Learn:

• How to shift from outcome-based success to a purpose-driven, faith-centered definition of winning.
• Simple daily practices to love people well, ask better questions, and create genuine connection.
• How obedience, presence, and small acts of courage compound into long-term impact.

A brutal, beautiful truth sparked Edwin’s transformation: a “short” run that broke him open and led to a promise to never quit on himself again. He breaks down how discipline, faith, and purposeful systems turned that vow into a lifestyle powered by daily wins and pressure-tested habits. We explore the link between adversity and spiritual growth, and how to build a real relationship with "The Big Man Above."

Edwin is also joining me as we run across the entire state of South Carolina beginning on 12/4/25.

Key Lessons:

• Choosing to become an endurance athlete despite being extremely out of shape
• How to choose “hard but reasonable” goals and build simple systems that make them stick
• Daily spiritual practices: Scripture, prayer, obedience, hearing God’s voice in the quiet
• Why confidence becomes predictable when built through reps, preparation, and purpose
