This episode is brought to you by Fatty15, Joi and Blokes, and LMNT.

Whether you’re chasing your own purpose, trying to break through excuses, or learning how to balance ambition with presence, this conversation is a masterclass in intentional living. Chase sits down with entrepreneur, best-selling author, helicopter pilot, and ultra-endurance athlete Álvaro Núñez. From hallucinating in the Sahara Desert to completing seven marathons on seven continents in a single week, Álvaro’s journey shows how to transform obstacles into superpowers. He shares how to find (or let life reveal) your “why,” why silence can build resilience more than constant grinding, and how curiosity keeps him striving for new challenges in life, business, and adventure.
