#18 - Your Misogi Awaits: Embrace Discomfort, Redefine Possible

In this solo episode of Thrive on Plants, Dr. Daphne Bascom invites you to lean into the edge of fear, discomfort, and growth. Inspired by the powerful concepts of Misogi and Colin O’Brady’s 12-hour walk, Daphne explores what it means to take on a challenge so bold that it redefines your sense of what’s possible. She shares moving stories from the 2025 Momentum Retreat in Zion, moments of cold plunges, rappelling cliffs, and emotional breakthroughs — and unpacks the deeper truths behind resilience, fear, and self-belief.

You’ll learn why perfectionism is not protection but a prison, and how embracing vulnerability and imperfection can unlock real transformation. Whether you’re feeling stuck, uncertain, or ready for your next level, this episode is your invitation to dare greatly, rewrite limiting beliefs, and commit to lifelong growth.

Why? Because you are not finished, and your next breakthrough might be just one brave step away.
