Endurance Minded

What happens when the future you’ve been working toward disappears overnight?

In this episode of Endurance Minded, Taylor sits down with IRONMAN athlete, entrepreneur, and author James J. Logan to explore what it means to keep living fully after receiving a stage 4 metastatic colorectal cancer diagnosis.

This conversation goes far beyond endurance sports. Together, they unpack identity, faith, purpose, suffering, and the difficult question of who we become when life doesn’t go according to plan. James shares how years of training for IRONMAN prepared him for a challenge he never saw coming, why discipline can help us navigate uncertainty, and how his perspective on success, time, and what truly matters has been forever changed.

Most people spend years training their bodies but almost no time training their internal state.

In this episode of Endurance Minded, Taylor sits down with J. Johnson, founder of High Frequency Highway, which helps shift you into calm, focus, or flow in minutes using customizable soundscapes, frequencies, and AI-guided sessions, to explore the relationship between performance, attention, nervous system regulation, and the habits that shape who we become.

Drawing from his experiences as an elite athlete, entrepreneur, and creator, J. shares how learning to intentionally shift your mental and emotional state can change the way you perform in every area of life. Together, they unpack why so many people feel stuck in reactive patterns, how technology can either steal or strengthen our attention, and why awareness may be one of the most trainable skills we have.

What actually keeps you going when everything in you wants to stop?

In this episode, Taylor sits down with endurance athlete Ted Lomicka, who became the first man to complete the 34-mile Triple Maui Nui Swim, nearly 24 hours in open water, crossing three of Hawaii’s most demanding channels.

But this conversation isn’t about the swim.

It’s about the moment in the middle of it… when he was ready to quit.

We get into what that breaking point actually feels like, how your mind starts to negotiate with you under pressure, and what ultimately pulls you forward when pushing harder isn’t enough.

Ted also shares how his perspective on endurance has evolved after 35 IRONMAN finishes, competing in ULTRAMAN, and continuing to push new limits at 57 years old.

This episode is about more than physical performance. It’s about mindset, environment, and the people around you, and how those things determine whether you stop… or keep going.

What if endurance isn’t about pushing harder, but about continuing to evolve over a lifetime?

In this episode of Endurance Minded, Taylor sits down with Margie Goldsmith, an award-winning travel writer, bestselling author, and lifelong adventurer who proves that it’s never too late to redefine what’s possible.

At 82 years old, Margie is still training, traveling, and pursuing challenges. She’s visited over 150 countries across seven continents, completed marathons and Olympic-distance triathlons, summited Mount Rainier, and reached advanced base camp on the north face of Mount Everest. But her story goes far beyond the surface of those accomplishments.

In this conversation, Margie shares her journey from a place of fear and limitation to a life built on courage, curiosity, and continuous growth. She reflects on how experiences like Outward Bound helped reshape her identity, how physical challenges became a pathway to confidence, and what it means to live life on your own terms.

Together they explore:

• The transformation from fear to confidence through action

This episode is a powerful reminder that endurance isn’t limited to a single season.

Margie’s newest book is “Becoming a Badass: From Fearful to Fierce.”
