We intended to cover a very different topic than we actually covered, but we were on a roll and couldn't stop talking about processing feedback from clients and on social media. As coaches, we always welcome feedback from clients and want to continually improve, but it can be hard to process brutally honest feedback. Kelly and JK explore this today and the complexity of social media posts.

~ 1:00 Updates from JK - working with a coach, upcoming travel

~ 11:30 Updates from Kelly - ultra training

~ 22:00 How we train ourselves vs our athletes

~ 30:30 Feedback from clients

~ 51:25 Being coachable vs knowing how to maximize the coaching experience

~ 1:05:00 Should social media posts be all inclusive?

~ 1:21:30 The gender data gap (Up to Speed and Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men)

~ 1:35:00 The history of "Don't mess with Texas"

We're back for another episode! We're switching up our release schedule so that these come out the week we record (hence why you get 2 episodes in a row this week!).

This week, the bulk of our convo hashes out a recent deload study (linked below) and our thoughts and feelings about controversial social media content, namely stitching someone else's content.

Enjoy!
