Listen in as Host Nicky C and Special Guest Connor Hurren dive into Connor's athletic, social and academic journeys. As you listen you will learn about his football journey from 8th grade newbie to varsity star, his soccer past, his bulking and everything else in between.

The reason this episode has been posted so late after its recording is because I(the host Nicky C) have been busy with college apps, school, other extracurriculars, sports and mental health but also have procrastinated, been lazy and managed my time poorly. I apologize to Connor and all loyal listeners.

Appendicitis? Too short for basketball? Hamstring tear? Brian, an elite multi-sport high school athlete, faced countless obstacles—but he never let anything stop him. From injuries and schoolwork to toxic masculinity and bad luck, he pushed through it all to succeed on and off the field. Join me as I explore Brian’s journey to becoming an unstoppable varsity football and lacrosse player, balancing academics while fending off setbacks. This episode redefines perseverance!

High school football? The stereotypes, the origin of the life long passion, the grind. Where does it come from? How does it manifest?

Listen as me and my guy discuss trying to be happy and successful.

Those crunchy crackers or that smooth hummus both have one thing in common. They're, fuel for life. No one can "Live a Life Without Strife" if, they don't have fuel. Food is that fuel for life! Whether you get it from a grocery store, farmers market, garden, farm or get it delivered, you need it! Everyone eats food, food helps us: function, feel good, live longer, develop brain cells, build muscle, and give us some dope dopamine with a delicious taste. In this episode, my friends and I dive into hypothetical scenarios about food; that hopefully make you think about your situation with food. Maybe, you need to be more grateful, add some healthy whole foods to your diet, try some new foods or change your perspective. Maybe, you want to learn how to cook. Maybe, just maybe, you want to dive into your ancestry and make some traditional dishes. I hope this episode inspires you to take a leap of faith into eating new healthy foods and potentially, living a better life.

Excuse my rambling, repetitive points, and domination of the conversation. I will work on those weaknesses and am open to any legit constructive criticism. Remember that no one on this episode has a degree in nutrition. You should not make any life-changing adjustments or dangerously change but merely listen to this conversion and argument to help you think and adjust your life moving forward. Excuse any technical difficulties, improper use of vocabulary, lack of rehearsing(this is the first try for everything), or pauses. This was filmed in my school, not a studio, and is just to talk, educate and have fun.
