I believed effort could solve almost anything. Push harder. Do more. Keep going. Until I learned the hard way that grit without grace eventually becomes exhaustion. In this episode, I dive deeper into the philosophy behind Grace and Grit and explore why finding the balance between the two is one of the most important skills you'll ever develop.
