Think birthday wishes are all about cake and gifts? Think again!

Ever heard of a “Misogi”? 

It’s a Japanese term for cleansing, which “The Comfort Crisis” author Michael Easter reframed as: intentionally challenging yourself to conquer the seemingly impossible. (Learn more about misogis here: https://jimharshawjr.com/312) 

Here’s the thing— my 16-year-old son asked for a misogi as a birthday gift! Sounds crazy, I know. But if my son’s up for a challenge, then I’m more than happy to give him the challenge that he’ll never forget.

So for Wyatt’s 16th birthday, we did the 24-hour Appalachian Trail Four State Challenge.

If you want to know what happened, hit that play button now because this episode isn’t just about trails and blisters. It’s about unraveling the power of determination, grit, and pushing boundaries— and how we navigated through pain and emerged with a newfound faith in our capabilities.

Get ready to conquer your doubts and unlock a new level of resilience— because if my son and I can do it, so can you!
