Welcome to Mere Mortals Conversation #46. Tofe Evans is the author of the book 'Everyone Has a Plan Until Sh!t Hits the Fan'. To some, he’s known as that kid who ran a race down the slopes of Mt Everest but most of the time he gets called ‘crazy’ or ‘nutcase’ more times than his name. All for the right reasons though. As a firm believer of pushing the boundaries of what the human body and mind is capable of, Tofe is constantly reinventing himself to advocate how anyone can rise above and be the best versions of themselves.The journey Tofe has been on these past few years have not only shaped his character, but his endurance career literally saved his life. For the ones that are screaming to get out of that deadly deep dark rabbit hole known as ‘adversity’, you’re in good hands. Here is someone who knows this field exceptionally well with his fair share of the destructive toxin. And where you may not think you'll come out of this dismal state, Tofe will guide you in the right direction with his lived experience.As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!Timeline:(0:00) - Introduction(1:30) - The professional life(3:16) - My own research(4:42) - Screw Quality lets do Quantity(8:25) - Before the endurance events(10:45) - Associating Australians as Drinkers(14:40) - Unworthiness(18:30) - Focusing on Yourself(20:35) - Getting into running(22:44) - The day the marathon was decided(25:20) - The Simulated Depression(30:20) - The Race that changed things(37:11) - Another Round of Depression(41:00) - Identity, the Square and the Dots(45:15) - Dealing with Emotions Today(51:00) - Talking about the best-selling Book(54:40) - Morning Routine(59:59) - Summary and LinksConnect with Tofe:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tofe-evans/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tofe.evans/Connect with Mere Mortals:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/Support the show
