Episode 151: Growth Happens Quietly

Alex Nunez & Edgar Del Val Episode 151

Welcome to Episode 151 of The Endless Growth Podcast!

This week, Alex and Edgar settle into one of those conversations that starts light and slowly turns reflective, moving from hiking plans and outdoor hobbies to deeper thoughts about risk, habits, stress, and the way time quietly moves forward whether you act or not.

The episode begins with a talk about a spontaneous trip to Moab, and the different ways people chase that feeling of being alive, whether it’s running, hiking, biking, or exploring the outdoors. What starts as casual conversation turns into a bigger question about what kind of life you actually want to build, and how easy it is to drift if you never decide.

From there, the discussion shifts into ambition, business ideas, and the fear that keeps people stuck. Alex and Edgar talk about calculated risks, option paralysis, and how social media can make success look simple while hiding the years of effort behind it. They reflect on how uncertainty feels uncomfortable, but staying still for too long can be just as dangerous.

The heart of the episode lands on mindset and perspective. They talk about stress, expectations, and the tendency to live in the future instead of experiencing the present. There’s an honest look at anxiety, overthinking, and the discipline it takes to focus only on what you can control, even when life keeps throwing unexpected problems your way.

They wrap up by reflecting on consistency, three years of recording, and what it means to keep showing up even when the path isn’t perfectly clear.

As always, thanks for listening!
