Getting After It

This isn’t just a podcast—it’s a relentless pursuit of growth, grit, and getting after life on your own terms.

Every week, we break down what it takes to push limits, embrace discomfort, and turn ambition into action. This is where wisdom meets execution—because knowledge alone doesn’t cut it. You have to apply, refine, and outwork your own self-doubt to see real results.

We bring on guests from all walks of life—entrepreneurs, athletes, creatives, adventurers—people who have battled through resistance and come out stronger. Their stories aren’t just inspiring; they’re roadmaps for anyone looking to level up.

The mission? To fuel your fire, challenge your thinking, and equip you with the mindset and tools to chase down your biggest goals.

This is Getting After It—not just a podcast, but a movement for those who refuse to settle.
