Greater Stories

Greater Stories is a podcast for those doing the hard work of building, doubting, and showing up anyway.

Doesn't it feel like no one talks about how hard it is to build something? Successful founders and creators mention it in a memoir or an interview, but then quickly move on to the next win or success. David and I started this podcast because this is how we usually feel, and we needed a space to talk about how hard it can be to build something meaningful.

If you've felt the tension of building and feeling like what's the point or why is everyone else winning but me, you're a builder and this podcast is for you. We hope you feel a little less alone listening to this episode as you continue to do work that is meaningful to you and others.

We’re bringing you one more episode on the last day of 2021. We answer three questions about our year: What went well? What didn’t go well? And how can we improve in 2022?

A lesson we’ve learned from this conversation is that it all matters. It’s easier to just reflect about work, productivity, and tools, but we realize how we show up as people affect everything we do. 

Thank you all for listening and following along throughout the year. Please be safe as you celebrate tonight!

After months of thinking about, talking through, and wrestling with this idea, we are finally ready to launch the next chapter of our podcast.

In July, the STAAT team met in LA to talk about what’s next, I flew out to Oregon to hang out with David and his wife for the weekend before their move to SF, and I celebrated a year of starting my coaching business. It was a big month for both of us and this week we catch up and talk about what it meant for us. 

This is a mini episode apologizing for our "radio" silence, and sharing a preview of what we're planning to launch this year.

On this episode of Upstream we talk about a shared thorn in our sides: our struggle with weight, weight loss, and health. We get into the meat and potatoes, if you will, of how being overweight and losing weight has affected our perspectives and identity. We unpack the origins of our relationships with food and weight and the tougher conversations we wished we had.

On this episode of Upstream, we bring into focus this lofty and vague term of “courageous work.” We realize it means being comfortable at the edge of what we know and who we are, and showing up everyday to move forward one inch at a time.

We talk about what courageous work means in the work we do, and the way we live our lives.
