Getting After It

Life's about rolling with the punches, and trust me, I've taken my fair share. While Ally, takes to the skies with Allegiant, my own world felt like it was doing barrel rolls without our daily routines.

In this episode, I'm laying it all out - the power of those tiny habits, like setting out your workout gear the night before. They might seem like small things, but they're the bedrock of our well-being. Ally might be cruising at 30,000 feet, but here on the ground, I'm more determined than ever to make her proud, doubling down on my fitness and lifestyle goals with a fresh sense of purpose.

If you've ever tuned into Joe Rogan, you've heard about that 'general' he talks about - that inner drill sergeant who pushes you to keep going.

Well, I've had a few face-offs with my own general. It's a voice that can either pump you up or pull you down. I'll share how mastering this internal force is key, not just for resisting those late-night snack raids, but for embracing Aristotle's idea that excellence is a habit.

Steady, consistent effort always outshines those one-off sprints, whether in sports or in business. I want to pass the mic to you. This isn't just my storytime; it's a community where your voices and experiences shape the bigger picture we're building together.

Share your own stories of discipline, consistency, and the life changes that test them. Let's keep this conversation buzzing, because it's your insights, reviews, and tales that make this journey worth it. So, hit play, and let's walk this path together - one habit, one story, one episode at a time.

Every morning, my mom would say, 'remember who you are,' a gentle reminder of the roots of my identity. This episode explores past experiences and the character they've forged, interlaced with stories from the 'Fat Brett' era to the profound influences of childhood aspirations.

I invite you into an open dialogue about using retrospection as a catalyst for advancement, extracting lessons from past missteps, and embracing the idiosyncrasies that shape us.

The steady rhythm of running during marathon training has imparted a critical lesson on the endurance required not just for the race but for life’s  journey.

This narrative is enriched by the insights from James Clear's 'Atomic Habits,' drawing connections between the small wins in running and the significant impact of consistent effort in all facets of life.

Reputation stems from our deeds, not just our thoughts. This episode explores the core of crafting a legacy rooted in genuineness and steadfastness.

Through stories and introspection, I explore the fine line between confidence and conceit while urging you to establish a path that embodies a reputation of kindness, dependability, and profound commitment.

When Drew Rossell crossed the finish line, he wasn't focused on the thrill of victory—he was craving the next big challenge. 

In our latest podcast episode, we tap into that spirit, inspired by the legendary Kobe Bryant and his iconic 'job's not finished' mindset. Our discussion explores the imperative of perpetual growth, influenced by giants like Bryant who leave a legacy that transcends basketball, shaping our approaches to sports, family, and leadership. We delve into personal development stories and the art of setting practical goals, providing a roadmap to sustained excellence and the continuous drive needed to stay focused and motivated.

This episode goes beyond just improving run times; it goes into the mental and physical challenge that running is. We unpack how a rigorous sports regimen can foster the confidence and fortitude necessary to overcome any challenge life throws at you.

The entire reason I share our journeys of setting ambitious targets, the transformative impact of unwavering commitment, and the psychological struggles of competing against oneself, is to learn lessons you can apply to your own life.

Balancing lofty fitness aspirations with family life might seem daunting, but Emeli and Drew demonstrate that it’s possible to merge the two seamlessly. Drew shares his experiences of pursuing high-level running goals while raising a young family, illustrating the balance that is both challenging and immensely fulfilling. You’ll also gain insights into the teamwork that fuels success, reminiscent of the synergy seen in teams like the Redeem Team.

We conclude the episode by celebrating the quiet triumphs that come from dedication and hard work, highlighting the beauty of relentless improvement and the endless quest for personal betterment.

Coming live from Sin City – Under the neon glow of Vegas, where life's vibrancy is matched only by its unpredictability, I've found moments of clarity and connection. Here, between the buzzing streets and the quiet solace of my thoughts, I've rediscovered the essence of what it means to be truly alive alongside my life's partner, Ally.

It's in these breaks from the whirlwind of everyday life, these stolen moments of togetherness, that we recharge and remind ourselves of the journey we're on together. This episode is meant to help you get to know me a little better.

Diving into the pages of Jocko Willink's "Extreme Ownership" has been nothing short of a game changer for me. It's a guide that's reshaped the way I navigate the obstacles life throws my way, turning what once seemed like insurmountable hurdles into opportunities to learn, grow, and lead with conviction.

Now, let me take you on the trails of my running adventures, where every step is a lesson in pushing beyond the limits. The "10 minute rule" has been my secret weapon—a simple yet profound commitment to just start, to move, to run. This rule isn't just about building physical strength; it's a metaphor for life, teaching us that the power of consistent, disciplined action can help us overcome financial woes, navigate the complex dynamics of family life, and chase down the dreams that set our souls on fire.

In this journey of the mind, I've found inspiration in voices like those from Modern Wisdom and The Joe Rogan Podcast. They're not just sources of entertainment; they're gateways to new ideas, and philosophies that sharpen my perspective and challenge me to think bigger, to be better.

To nurture greatness, not just within ourselves but in the generations to follow, is perhaps the most significant journey of all. This conversation isn't just about what we achieve; it's about the mark we leave on the world and the paths we pave for those who will walk them after us.
