Welcome to Episode 140 of the Obstacle Order!

In this Episode, Elijah sits down with Nicole Mericle.  In this episode, you will learn Nicole’s background and why she has the perfect combination of skills to be a great OCR athlete. Unlike most pure runners of her stature, (division 1 level track and cross country athlete) Nicole also has strong grip from rock climbing.  So it wasn’t hard to quickly get the hang of OCR races and excel at them.

This show goes deep into her story of what led her to OCR and the tactics she uses to improve her weakness. Listen for cool tips to improve grip strength and grip endurance. This episode is packed with great information and is one you won’t want to miss.

Morris Brossette working with one of his bad ass athletes. 



There aren’t too many people like Coach Mo. He spends his days working with adaptive athletes and C level executives- helping them to cope with the stresses of their own respective lives. There is usually quite a contrast there and Mo knows just how to handle it. 



Based in Dallas, Texas with over 24 years of experience in the field of health and wellness, Morris Brossette is a jack of all trades. When it comes to working with individuals who are in need of guidance, direction and a friend there is no comparison. 



His tireless efforts with the injured veteran athletes at the Adaptive Training Foundation can be felt when speaking with those who work with him. People who have found their true strength after losing one or all of their limbs can be overjoyed at the types of things that you or I might take for granted. Because of this they have found more strength than I will ever know. Because of the work that Mo and his team do these, and others, have found the secret to living a healthy, wealthy life. 



Please enjoy my conversation with Coach Morris Brossette. 









Ep #5: Gettin’ Mo with Coach Mo.


Misty earning her permit for those guns.



Lil Misty Diaz is a Female force to be reckoned with.  I recently had the privilege to sit down with one of the most inspiring athletes that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She is the unofficial Queen of Overcoming Obstacles and after our conversation I am nominating her for the official status. 



My friend Misty Diaz joins us today and she is an incredibly power woman who I am fortunate to have crossed paths with. She was born with MYelo-menin-jo-sele is a birth condition in which the backbone and spinal canal do not close before birth.Myelomeningocele the most serious form of Spina Bifida and it affects 1 in every 4,000 children. 



In 1984 Misty began her battle that would eventually define her as the magnificent person that she is today. After conquering a series of 28 operations, she discovered what would become her true strength and with a small step towards that …a huge life change. One day she began to walk from her house to the next block. Then the next day the block after that. She then got into competing in races and has never looked back. 



When she’s not racing, she’s training, mentoring kids with SB, encouraging other adaptive athletes, speaking in schools, or planning her next trip. One of her dreams is to race internationally and some day soon she will be creating a 5k Walk/Run to support those who are in need and living with Spina Bifida.



She is truly the embodiment of drive and success and we can all take a page or two from her book- She is one of the most vibrant people and knows just how to get busy living. I hope that you all learn from and enjoy my conversation Lil Misty.





Episode #4: Lil Misty is stronger than you.


This episode is a mirror of a show that aired on the Honest Ghost Podcast. As some of you know my primary occupation is as a health and Wellness Expert. Someone thought I was doing a good job so they reached out to interview me about what my process and methodology look like. 



I can be all over the map at times. If you heard the previous show The Obstacle Order then you know this to be true. Today is similar because there is just too much to cover! Too much to talk about and too little time to do it in so we go over a little bit of everything. 



How do I spend my time serving the clientele that I do and making the lifestyle that I want? Why is Burlingame Fitness the premiere health coaching studio in the Silicon Valley area? The extraordinary Coaches Collective seems cool but what is it? These are just a few of the things that we go over on todays episode of the Philip Levi Show. 



It was an honor to be interviewed and I hope that you’ll enjoy the content we have created for you. As always if you have any questions please reach out on the site, DM me on Instagram or leave a comment on one of my Youtube videos and I will do my very best to get back to you.



Take care and thanks for tuning in!

Episode #3 (#173):             The Honest Ghost


In this episode of the show and I sit down with my very special guest Joe De Sena. Many of you know him as the founder and CEO of Spartan Race. He is one of the most hardworking and down to earth people that I have met. 



We sit down fireside, literally, in the lobby of the Squaw Valley Ski Resort. It can be a little noisy at times but thats life isn’t it? Our conversation is one that ranges from why Spartan Race began all the way to the proper way to start your day. 



If you were a fan of my previous show then you’ll love the new format. It’s short, sweet and to the point. Plus you’ll find that there are some great tips on how to live your life to the fullest. As we like to say on the show “how to get busy living”! 



I hope that you enjoy, and benefit from, my chat with the founder of Spartan Race, Joe De Sena. 









A Fireside Chat with Joe De Sena


I love OCR and I love athletics but for some time now I have felt constrained by the subject matter that was the title of the show itself. There is just too much that interests me to limit my focus specifically OCR.



That being said I would like to introduce “The Philip Levi Show: Understanding Health, Wealth and Life“.  The show features guests from various fields and in the exploration of their backgrounds I aim to bring their experience to the audience. Through conversation and experience I bring to you the opportunity to learn and grow along with us.  At the forefront of my interest is bringing the stories of my guests to you in the hopes that their knowledge provides you with some insight and benefit that you can apply to your daily life. I will also explore what seems to make people content in their lives. With the launch of this show I also aim to explore the path pursued towards what makes people truly happy. 



I appreciate your tuning in and I hope that together we can get busy living.
