(SEASON 3) EPISODE 5: "Today is a Good Day to Die"

Author: Asha Zalika June 27, 2026 Duration: 34:05

Spirit reminded me of this quote this morning: "Today is a good day to die".


According to Google Search, this English phrase has been attributed to the war hero Crazy Horse. However, the first historical documentation of it's use is from the Lakota cheif Low Dog during the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1881.


It made its way to me during the beginning of 2011, in a homeless shelter program for women with children.


In this episode, I explain it's impact on me the first time I heard it and the amazing transformation it had on me this morning!


I hope it has the same effect on you and how you continue your journey to authenticity!✨️


Hosted by Asha Zalika, Authenticity the Hard Way is a conversation about the messy, non-linear work of building a life that truly fits. This podcast operates from a simple, challenging premise: real freedom and self-discovery aren't found in quick fixes or comfortable routines. They're forged through deliberate, often difficult choices that touch every part of our existence. Episodes weave together practical discussions on physical fitness and holistic health with deeper explorations of mental resilience, spiritual grounding, and personal philosophy. You'll hear honest reflections on how our beliefs and daily practices-from exercise to meditation to community-shape the core of who we are. The aim isn't to prescribe a single path but to examine the friction points where growth happens, offering perspectives that are as much about inner strength as they are about actionable self-improvement. It’s for anyone who suspects that a more genuine version of themselves lies on the other side of some hard work, and who wants thoughtful companionship for that journey. Tune in for a blend of grounded advice and reflective dialogue that refuses to separate the mind from the body or the spirit from the everyday struggle.
