This conversation goes beyond surface-level motivation. We talk about discipline vs. obsession, balance vs. complacency, and how grounding yourself—physically, mentally, and spiritually—allows you to perform at a high level without burning out or losing your identity. Rob shares personal insights from his journey as an athlete and business owner, explaining how physics, faith, and intentional living intersect in everyday decision-making.
