Badass Habits is a eureka-sparking, easy-to-digest look at how our habits make us who we are, from the measly moments that happen in private to the resolutions we loudly broadcast (and, erm, often don't keep) on social media. Habit busting and building goes way beyond becoming a dedicated flosser or never showing up late again - our habits reveal our unmet desires, the gaps in our boundaries, our level of self-awareness, and our unconscious beliefs and fears.

While mental health is complex, our culture has made anxiety into something it’s not. For the majority of people who face anxiety, the truth is simpler than we think: Anxiety is an alarm. It’s a signal — nothing more and nothing less. Anxiety is simply our body’s way of telling us something is wrong. If we stop and listen, we can calm the alarm and move forward into healing and hope.

A few years ago, Kris Carr’s world was falling apart. Her father was dying, she had to pivot her business because of the pandemic, and she was on the verge of reaching her twenty-year milestone of living with an incurable Stage IV cancer diagnosis. While sitting in a CVS parking lot, she broke down, finally allowing herself to feel the massive stress and sadness she had been suppressing in order to seem strong for those around her, and for herself. And then she asked herself, “If embracing my intense emotions helped me feel even the slightest bit better, why was I so determined to avoid them?"

Adversity is the most significant indicator of one’s resilience, which is why Mind Before Body focuses on the impact of imbalance in our mental and physical well-being. This imbalance can affect our daily personal and professional lives. Sometimes, our adversity can be a barrier; we should not be held back by our mistakes or traumas. On the contrary, these should be the foundation for thriving and succeeding.

At times funny, others times starkly serious, David delivers the unvarnished truth about why we overeat in his blunt and fearlessly honest style. He makes the case for how the food and the fitness industries have failed us and how today’s food manufacturers conspire to turn us into addicts by hijacking our minds and decimating our bodies.

Publisher's summary
From Ironman Triathlons to ICU Stays. Marathons to Muffin Meltdowns, Surfing Wipeouts to Dating Washouts....
A story for all ages and genders, for those struggling and supporters....
Zoom in on any of the momentous occasions in Ryan Althaus’s life, and you’re certain to see a certain shadowy someone lurking in the background—his "friend" Ed. But Ed’s not quite the friend you are envisioning. Ed is short for “eating disorder”, and he has an obnoxious way of infusing himself into every aspect of Ryan’s life—but not for long!
In his latest book, From Emaciated to Emancipated, certified psych chaplain and ex-professional runner Ryan "Mango" Althaus recounts the moment when he and Ed first crossed paths, as well as the not-so-traditional route he’s taken to ditch Ed following a near-death relapse that landed him in a psychiatric center. As anyone with their own Ed will know, recovery is a roller-coaster ride of ups and downs, but Ryan’s lighthearted approach will encourage, entertain, and inspire you to join in his quest to reclaim his life, laughter, and reason for being—without Ed in tow.
Find out more about Ryan at the surfingmango.com, and get ready for a wild listening ride!

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer.

An honor to walk alongside
I am so proud of Ryan for sharing his story with such warmth and humor.
While this book is directed toward those struggling with “our friend ED“ I still found the book incredibly enlightening for what many of my friends and loved ones have endured as they walk the path of recovery.
