People Make Pyllon: Identity, Community and the Confidence to Keep Going (Final Part)
Episode 30
Thursday, 8 January, 2026
In this final part of our series with James Stewart, we return to the deeper questions that sit beneath every long run, every hard session, and every season of training: how do we stay connected to what matters, and how do we keep going when things get tough? This episode picks up where the last one left off - covering points six to ten from our list of ideas that influence long-term performance. From self-efficacy to community, identity to joy, we explore how these concepts shape how we train, how we lead, and how we show up in life. It’s a conversation about real resilience, the value of play, and how success so often depends on what you believe about yourself when things aren’t going to plan. If you’ve ever felt stuck, disconnected, or unsure where your motivation went, this one’s for you. In this episode: • Why confidence builds through small wins • How identity keeps you steady in hard times • Why community fuels long-term consistency • The role of fun in reframing pressure • How to balance play, purpose and progress • Advice for anyone feeling flat or lost in training 🔗 Stay connected Subscribe to The Ultra Life - weekly reflections from Paul on running, life and everything in between: 👉 https://pyllon.substack.com Watch short films, interviews and more: 👉 https://youtube.com/pyllon Follow on Instagram: 👉 https://instagram.com/pyllon 👉 https://instagram.com/pyllonultra Interested in coaching in 2026?
