Kyle and Brent Peace - Vulnerability, Resilience, Gratitude and Love
Mon Nov 24 2025
Kyle and Brent Pease aren't just athletes; they're the driving force behind the Kyle Pease Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to creating inclusion for people with disabilities through sports and life experiences.
Kyle, who was born with cerebral palsy, and his brother Brent, have completed countless endurance races, including six Ironman races together. If you just looked at a picture of them in the races, you might think that Brent is doing all the work as he pushes, pulls and carries Kyle. But as we'll hear in this interview, the two really push, pull and carry each other equally.
In this interview, the Pease brothers invite us behind the scenes of their journey—and into the positive mental attitudes that keeps them moving forward.
They talk candidly about:
The emotional truth of racing as a team
The distinction between what we choose and what chooses us
Kyle's lifelong decision to embrace positivity
How gratitude can transform even the hardest miles
What it's like to carry each other—physically, mentally, and spiritually
Why presence, not speed, is the real secret to strength
It's a conversation about endurance, yes, but even more about vulnerability, resilience, gratitude, inclusion, acceptance and love.
🔥 Key Takeaways Gratitude is a performance enhancer. Spoken aloud, it becomes a source of fuel.
You can't choose every challenge—but you can choose your attitude toward them.
Presence is a superpower. Hard moments feel manageable when you stay in the moment.
Teamwork means carrying each other in different ways. Sometimes physically, sometimes emotionally.
Positivity is not automatic. Even for Kyle, it's a daily choice and discipline.
Endurance isn't just physical. Emotional resilience is built mile by mile.
Resilience isn't just a personal characteristic. True resilience is a social construct. It comes from our families, friends, communities and the other people we surround ourselves with. 🎉 Thanks to Hyperice!
