In this episode, I talk with Sam Morris, co founder and CEO of E9 Global and founder of Zen Warrior Training, about how Adversity can transform overstimulation, confusion, and identity loss into clarity and grounded leadership. Sam breaks down how modern life pulls us into reactivity and how presence, awareness, and adaptability become the antidote. If you want to feel more anchored and capable in a world that keeps speeding up, this conversation gives you a foundation you can actually use.
