2025 Wins & Challenges + 2026 Goals & Dreams

TRIAL BY FIRE: The story behind the book.

Tyler Ippoliti sat down with his wife and co-conspirator Ashley to talk about what it actually took to write Trial by Fire — and why he almost didn't publish it. In this episode: the burn that put him in the ICU for 24 days, the five years of living in an RV, plant medicine in the Sacred Valley, and how losing everything is what finally taught him who he was. Tyler breaks down the Hero's Journey arc of the book, why he believes most people are driving a car they never chose, and what it means to train yourself for what life is actually going to put you through. This isn't a self-help episode. It's a real conversation about initiation, identity death, community, and why the hardest experiences you'll ever go through might be the most necessary ones. Trial by Fire is available now here. [https://www.amazon.com/Trial-Fire-Purpose-Connection-Chaotic/dp/1968164324/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0#detailBullets_feature_div]
