  • 33. Bishoi Khella: Beyond the Scale - A Story of Reinvention
    2024/10/30

    Welcome to the Grit Show!

    On this episode, we chat with Bishoi Khella, who takes us through his incredible, often bumpy journey of weight loss, self-discovery, and finding purpose. Bishoi opens up about what it was like growing up as the “chubby kid” and how, in high school, he worked hard to drop from 260 to 180 lbs. But after starting his own business at 22, the stress piled on, and old habits crept back in, pushing him up to 350 lbs.

    Bishoi describes avoiding the scale like it was the plague and shares the tough reality of childhood food restrictions that left him clueless about healthy habits. He also reflects on those moments of “how did I get here?”—the panic attacks, feeling out of control, and the overwhelming guilt that became a moral compass for him.

    When life felt chaotic, Bishoi turned to journaling to make sense of his emotions, and he realized how much stress his body was carrying. A low point came on a trip with friends; being out of shape meant he couldn’t fully enjoy it, and it was a wake-up call that pushed him toward change. That’s when he discovered the 75 Hard program, which, as he describes it, “changed everything.”

    He shares how he embraced “chasing discomfort,” raising his standards, and getting so committed to his goals that nothing else mattered. For Bishoi, if you want something bad enough, you’ll find a way.

    Today, Bishoi challenges himself in different ways and is passionate about helping others do the same. His journey has also refined his social circle; it’s smaller now but filled with quality connections. Bishoi’s story is down-to-earth, relatable, and packed with insights about grit and resilience that make this episode a must-listen.

  • 32. Anders Hofman: Pushing Past Limits to Make Dreams Reality
    2024/10/24

    Welcome to the Grit Show!

    In this episode, we sit down with Anders Hofman, the man behind Project Iceman, where he became the first person to complete a full Iron Distance triathlon on the icy continent of Antarctica. Hofman takes us on a journey through his Danish upbringing, where playing it safe was the norm, and dreaming big seemed impossible. From his childhood dream of becoming a professional football player to being told repeatedly that his aspirations were unrealistic, Hofman shares the pivotal moment when he quit his stable job and pursued the unthinkable challenge of Project Iceman.

    Hofman discusses how our limitations are often self-imposed, and the only people who say something is impossible are those who haven’t done it themselves. He emphasizes that chasing a dream draws the right opportunities and people into your life and that fulfillment comes from following the passions that ignite your inner child.

    Through intense training, navigating extreme weather, and dealing with unexpected challenges like freezing goggles and encounters with wildlife, Hofman demonstrates how resilience and adaptability are key to overcoming life’s storms. In his words, "If I have to crawl, I am going to crawl," a mindset that carried him through both the brutal Antarctic conditions and the pursuit of his lifelong dreams.

    As Project Iceman comes to a close, Hofman is now chasing his next dream—becoming a professional football player, beginning a new journey in a foreign country, learning to trust the process once again.

    Join us for a riveting conversation filled with lessons on courage, perseverance, and the power of following your own path, no matter the odds.
