K and I discuss growth, how we can adjust our perspective towards growing, some pitfalls and challenges we might face when we care about growth and some personal struggles we face in our own growth j…

I recently posted a construct I developed a couple years ago and folks seemed to really like it, so figured it would be cool to do a podcast episode talking about it. In this episode, we discuss the …

K and I discuss some lessons learned after 11 years of CrossFit affiliate ownership, training thousands of athletes and coaches, as well as our own experiences to shape where we are going. Our passio…

K and I discuss her 2019 Lake Placid Half Ironman experience this past weekend. This is an incredibly open and honest conversation where we discuss some serious challenges leading up to and during th…

K and I discuss a topic we touched on last week and have been digging into in our own lives over the past month or so. What is the difference between confidence and belief? We get into it and give so…

K and I are back at it and we open up about why we skipped last week. We share some of the things we failed to do over the past few months that we know are helpful and our take on the value of "falli…

There's no episode this week. I feel compelled to hop on and let you know that, versus hide behind some 20 min bit I'm not into. Frankly, I'd be doing it for me, not you, and that's not something I'm…

K is back from the CrossFit Games. We sit down and discuss her job, what makes it unique and challenging, how she has improved as a result of the work she's been doing, and observations about the Cro…

Support is something we can all benefit from taking a deeper look at. I think there are nuances and pitfalls that come about when we aren't 'clear' on supporting, which takes the form of enabling, be…

It's only appropriate to have the first guest be none other than my wife. We have shared in so much over the past 10 years that we want to share with others too. 

In this episode, we talk about what w…

I think widespread cynicism and general distrust has broken our system of believing. I think we've become so good, like scarily good, at knowing what we don't believe or refuse to believe, that it's …

A bit of the lead-up to my Do Lectures talk and coming home.

To understand "what" the BTE Practice is, I first want to explain "why" I created it. I think this medium provides certain advantages written communication just cannot accurately relay. I stand by th…

It's amazing, and scary, what grows that requires zero effort. How easily the nasty stuff can get out of hand without doing anything. If you want 'that' stuff to grow, a great tactic is to do exactly…

I'm in the world of personal development, both by my own participation and providing guidance to others. I often hear people say they want to get better at something, improve something, make a change…

I recently gave a lecture and learned a tremendous amount as a result of it not going all that great. I'm fired up to get to work and use this opportunity as a way to improve, not just in presenting …

I found an old 550 cord bracelet I made years ago and put it on to replace the nakedness of my wrist in absence of my (broken) watch. I didn't expect it to speak to me the way it has, which I finally…

My whole life, fitness and the pursuit of improving it have been 'for' something, specifically soccer and the military. Now that I'm out of the military and my cleats have long been hung up, I have f…

"You have to trust your guy." "What does your gut say?" If you've ever had a conversation with anyone and shared a dilemma you're facing, there's a good chance one of these two phrases was thrown you…

I love purpose. I think it's up there with breathing in order to live a fully engaged life. There is a huge emphasis on knowing and finding your 'Why'. Yes. This is a great exercise and the likes of …
