What if grit isn’t enough? Here’s what men aren’t told about discipline that actually lasts.
In Part 2 of our Grit series, Tim sits down with Kevin Palmieri (Co-Founder of Next Level University, 2,100+ episodes, 1M+ plays) to break down the real difference between out-suffering everyone and building a life that doesn’t burn you out.

Why this episode hits different for men:
The hidden cost of chasing success without fulfillment
How “out-suffering” can actually wreck your growth
Why community and self-empathy are the missing links in real discipline
The line between healthy struggle and toxic grinding
This isn’t about going soft; it’s about building strength that won’t break you.
