He volunteered to be captured and sent to Auschwitz. Why? In this episode, I tell the true story of Witold Pilecki—a man whose mission to resist evil took him inside the gates of hell. We explore what made him capable of enduring the unendurable, why meaning—not muscle—is the foundation of resilience, and what this blueprint teaches us about modern leadership and mental fitness. By the end of this episode, you’ll see why mental strength isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you train for. 📲 Follow Tom on Instagram: instagram.com/tomfoxley 💻 More from Tom: tomfoxley.me
