Discover the secret at the heart of what really gets us through life’s inevitable struggles: belonging. From customer service to ultramarathons to workplace culture, they reflect on how problems aren’t always meant to be fixed—but often shared. The episode explores how the sense of community and connection isn’t just a warm fuzzy idea—it physiologically changes how we experience pain, build resilience, and find fulfillment.

Key Takeaways:

• “A problem shared is a problem halved.”
• Connection changes your pain threshold—literally.
• Most problems aren’t problems—they’re just part of life.
• You don’t need to fix everything. Sometimes, just listen.
• Belonging and team culture fuel peak performance.
• Building a meaningful crew—whether for life, business, or a 100-mile ultramarathon—is everything.
