This episode will change how you see failure, pain, and rock bottom forever.

Today, I sit down with Akshay Nanavati—a U.S. Marine turned polar explorer, author of Fearvana, and a man who has overcome PTSD, addiction, survivor’s guilt, and the brink of suicide—to teach you how to save yourself when everything feels lost.

You’re not broken. You’re becoming.

Akshay’s life is proof that your pain is not the end—it’s the initiation. From dragging 190 pounds across Antarctica solo for 60 days, to spending 10 days alone in total darkness, Akshay has made peace with his demons and turned them into purpose.

This isn’t a motivational talk. This is a blueprint for rebirth—one rooted in pain, heart, and resilience.

💥 In this raw, powerful episode, you’ll learn:

• Why your “rock bottom” might be the most sacred moment of your life
• What the phrase “the storm is the summit” really means
• How to take the first step out of the pit (even if you’re still drinking, grieving, or breaking down)
• The psychology of struggle: why pain doesn’t mean you’re failing
• How to stop seeing suffering as the enemy—and start using it as fuel
• The one mindset shift that will change how you approach every challenge from here on out
