In this motivational solo episode, Bobby opens up about the mental battles that come with chasing a big dream — whether running, creating music, or pursuing any form of personal growth. He acknowledges a universal truth: sometimes it feels like the world is heavy. Not just physically, but mentally — a weight that tells us we’re tired, too old, too late, not strong enough, or that no one really car...
