In this powerful episode, Coach Adam dives deep into the mindset shift that can transform your health journey: burning the ships. Inspired by a coaching client who donated all his “just in case” clothes after losing weight, this episode explores what it means to let go of the fallback plan and fully commit to the life you're building now. Adam unpacks the historical roots of the phrase “burn the ships,” how it applies to behavior change, and why total commitment creates resilience when the journey gets hard.

What You'll Learn:

• The surprising history behind “burn the ships” — and why it matters
• How safety nets (like old clothes or habits) can quietly undermine progress
• Why full commitment often feels uncomfortable — and why that’s a good thing
• How to identify and release your “Plan B” thinking
• Practical mindset shifts to help you stay focused and consistent
• Why letting go of the past can be one of the most liberating things you do
