Episode 261: Brendon Rearick - Communication, coaching longevity, fatherhood, and learning

This episode's guest is Brendon Rearick.

Brendon Rearick is a husband, father, strength coach, public speaker, teacher, business owner, ice cream lover, and bookworm. Beyond the labels, his purpose for living is: to make exercise the number one prescribed drug in the world, to spread the positive by-products of movement & coaching as far as he can, and to Collect Moments, Not Things. Any decision he faces is put up against these values; and if it doesn’t align, he doesn’t do it. 

Because life's not about what we have, but who we share it with.

On this episode Brendon and I discuss:
