Chasing Common Ground: Lifestyle Conversations with Chris Liddle

Meg Stevenson is a great human being who thrives off of contributing towards something greater than herself. Founder of Navina Yoga Studio, she has had Yoga in her life for a long time. We talk about family, friends, how to live out your dreams and honour yourself and having a set of values that enables you to feel good.

Chan Rin has known me for about 3 years and interviewed me when I came onboard with the YEG Fitness team. He rode in my first indoor cycle class that I taught as well as one of the last ones. He's featured me in some of his projects and always been a quick text away if I ever felt like I needed to stress about small business and working to make things work. He's seen my entire career unfold. He's a great guy to have in your corner. 

If I need someone to judge character, Chan comes to mind. He is a no bullshit kind of guy. 

He's done amazing things for the Edmonton photography industry, one of my best friends goes to his Chan's UrbanYeg meetups and honestly to see how people with a passion can learn to thrive in their craft is pretty special. 

You should listen to this one. Hope you enjoy. Available on all major podcast platforms.

Nick Sorrell is no stranger to podcasts. However, my podcast is not like other podcasts he's been on.

We talked about the tough moments, the moments where he's felt joy, the 16 year old version of himself, we talked about addictions, eating disorders, heart break, moments of complacency, moments of uncertainty. We also talked about NF a little bit, because duhh. We chatted about our favourite things about Dean Guedo in a sneaky effort to lure him into listening, and we talked about how generosity can be selfish sometimes, and that is okay. 

Hope you listen to this one!

In this episode I tell the story of The Lifestyle Chase so far, and give a bit of background on every guest from Episode 1 to 52 and what makes them the great people that they are. 

Thanks for all of your support!

Doing things the hard way. This is something that Emily and I have each had to do a lot in our lives. We go off on a lot of tangents on this one, we talk about Emily's high school experience, her passion and the trials and tribulations of swimming. 

If you think this episode is long, you should consider the fact that we didn't even got onto the topics of the mountains or music festivals and that is truly the magical thing about making time and putting people first. 

This episode comes with 2 challenges that I set out for anyone who listens. 

At the beginning I ask that anyone who listens, try to pick out 3 things that resonated with you or that you related to. Send them to me either by email [email protected] or tag me on social media (@christianliddle, @thelifestylechase). It's so valuable to be able to get something out of everyone you meet or listen to. We put so much value on the books we can read, but when is the last time we stopped to see what someone right in front of us has to offer. This is why businesses thrive off community. Social media feeds of that feeling of community. Don't lose sight of the fact that community is staring you right in the face. 

Excellent segway to challenge number two... At the end of the episode I challenge you to make time for someone you don't see regularly. A family member, a friend, someone who seems interesting or maybe even someone you look up to. Make it in person if possible, but if it needs to be a video chat, do that too. If you feel adventurous, tell me about that too. I like to think all of this preaching of "people first" is picking up some momentum.

The Lifestyle Chase is available on all major podcast platforms, easily searchable on google. There are well over 50 amazing people to learn about and it is truly something I value greatly. I can never thank my listeners enough for the support, and I hope you enjoy this one.

Kyle Dobbs joined me on the podcast from St. Louis, Missouri. He has over a decade of quality experience in the fitness industry having worked in many different capacities, settings and roles. 

He is one of the most highly respected mentors in the industry and has a very strong set of values which is what makes him such a perfect guest for a podcast like this. We talk about the impact of his time at Costa Rica with the likes of Dr. Ben House and Dr. Pat Davidson, and the many other remarkable people you can meet in a setting like that. 

We talk about his high school experience, challenges in post secondary, stressful moments in his career, the experiences of fatherhood, growing closer to your significant other and how Lego brings kids to flow state. Honestly, I regret not going further into that but that could have gone on for hours. 

We look at the word failure and how much of a buzz word it has become, and we talk about what a fulfilling life looks like. 

This episode was really cool. So I hope you enjoy it and take on my challenge of meeting up with someone you don't know much about this week and just learning about them for an hour. In person. Or video call. Whatever it takes.
