Great catching up with good friend Daniel Ciampini, or Champ as he’s known. Great to hear his perspectives on so many things with respect to how to be committed to what you love to do, because being diligent and working hard are the little things that can make the biggest differences. It’s all about understanding the economics; supply & demand! Oh, and he’s a National Champion.... and has his MBA. And keeps up with the Kardash... ok, Pop Culture. Great episode today! Have a listen!

A quick $0.02 edition ~ Staying out of your own way is 🔑 ! | (P.s - can you tell it was recorded at 1am after a game!?)

Hey guys! Guess what? We are back and definitely on the path towards bringing a ton more value! First up: Kyle Reidhead from Health Simple. Simply put, this episode is nutritious! Packed full of high quality info, we dive right into trying to dispel some common myths around athletes and nutrition / lifestyle choices, and do our best to give some actionable details for you to try. At the end of the day, it’s about trying it for yourself. Forget blindly listening to what we say, try it out for yourself and see if you can experience a lot of the benefits that we have learned along the way. One thing is for sure: we wish we would have had this info readily available when we were young(er)! Either way, we are making it work for us now, so have a listen and see if you can give yourself a head start!

It’s been a minute since our last episode, so we thought we would give a little recap on what we’ve been up to! *HINT - actually doing something* | It’s great to be back in the mix though!

At the intersection of athletics and personal branding, we meet .... a stand up comic with a bunch of Gold Medals🥇 that likes combat sports? 🥊 Possibly in the future! Either way, it was great to have Zach on the show to discuss what he has been up to! Zach has had some amazing achievements thus far in his hockey career, winning gold at most levels of International representation for Canada🍁. As well, he has built himself a nice community on social media that he keeps engaged by constantly showing small bits of who he is. The key is authenticity and communicating a positive message! Zach is a recent signing with the Vegas Golden Knights, and he is looking for a fresh start in a place that has captured the attention of all hockey fans! It’s no coincidence that Zach would be on their radar! We also get some insights as to how goalies view training camp (hint: you vs the puck!). Merci Zach d'être sur le podcast! Et bonne chance cette saison!

In this episode, Daniel dives into some pressing issues with college teammate and goaltender Gordy Defiel. Topics such as the mental fortitude required to defy odds and acquire a Division 1 scholarship as a late bloomer. Also as many players struggle with the idea of retirement and life after playing and competing which is all they've known for a lifetime. Some hard hitting components to this episode make it a great listen for those dealing with similar issues, and having a hard time finding their warrior mindset in order to combat performance anxiety and self doubt.

If you want to be inspired, have a listen to this episode💥 Mason’s story is very unconventional to playing pro hockey, but what’s more of an anomaly is his absolute inability to make any kind of excuse. This is the kind of thing that makes or breaks success. Quite simply: if you’re looking for a story to inspire you, listen in to hear Mason talk and hear his perspective, it’s definitely worth the time. ⏱

Dennis Lindsay joins us with his wealth of knowledge, expertise and implementation strategies for athletic development and evaluation. Join us for a fantastic, informative episode about off ice and on ice testing parameters, why they are important, how to test them and why we even bother testing certain aspects of athleticism.🏃🏻‍♀️🤸🏼‍♂️🤾🏻‍♂️#RunJumpThrow
