One of my favorite things about this podcast is getting to sit down with people who are willing to tell the truth—not the polished version, but the real version.

This next episode is with Alex Malebranche — founder, operator, entrepreneur, father, and someone who has spent years helping companies and leaders navigate growth, change, and uncertainty.

What I love about Alex is that he's raw. He doesn't pretend to have it all figured out. He talks openly about the wins, the failures, the lessons, and the moments that force you to rethink who you are and where you're headed.

We talked about entrepreneurship, leadership, fatherhood, ambition, identity, and what it means to keep evolving as a human. Alex has this ability to challenge conventional thinking while staying incredibly grounded in what actually matters.

He's also the type of person you want to follow—not because he has all the answers, but because he's willing to ask the hard questions, stay curious, and share what he's learning along the way.

This conversation is honest, thought-provoking, and packed with perspective. I walked away with pages of notes and a lot to think about.

You don't want to miss this one. 🎙️🤍

One of the greatest gifts this podcast has given me is the opportunity to meet people who genuinely change the way I see the world.

This next episode is with Amy Young — executive coach, former athlete, leader, and someone who has become a very close friend of mine.

I met Amy through The Post, an incredible community for former athletes, and from the moment we connected, I knew she was someone I wanted more of in my life. She is one of those rare people who combines strength with softness, ambition with humility, and confidence with deep compassion.

Amy is also a woman I deeply admire and aspire to be more like. The way she shows up for others, the intentionality with which she lives her life, and her commitment to helping women step into their full potential is incredibly inspiring.

In this conversation, we talk about identity after sports, leadership, confidence, reinvention, relationships, and the courage it takes to build a life that is truly your own. Amy shares wisdom that comes not just from coaching others, but from doing the work herself.

This conversation felt like sitting down with a trusted friend who tells you exactly what you need to hear while reminding you what's possible.

I laughed, I reflected, and I walked away wanting to be a little braver.

This one is special. Come ready with a notebook. 🎙️🤍

Kyle is not only an incredible human, but someone with a story you don’t want to miss.

I met Kyle through The Post, an incredible community of former collegiate and professional athletes who continue to push themselves long after their playing days are over. It’s a community filled with inspiring people, and Kyle is absolutely one of them.

From a successful career in reinsurance, to lifelong friendships, to an impressive lacrosse career, Kyle is someone who has continued to grow and succeed through every chapter of his life. And if you hear his full story, you might wonder how he’s done it.

What stands out most is his belief that consistency matters. Showing up, doing the work, and helping others along the way can truly change your life.

He also reminds us that most people are carrying more than we realize. Being open about what you’re going through doesn’t make you weak—it connects you to others who may be going through the same thing.

One of my favorite parts of this podcast is getting to sit down with people who make me think differently, and this next guest does exactly that.

This episode is with Kaila Lim — a community builder, storyteller, founder advocate, incredible host, and one of the kindest humans I know.

Kaila has built a career helping people connect more deeply with themselves and each other. Whether she's coaching leaders, building communities, or hosting conversations, she has this rare ability to make people feel seen, heard, and valued.

What I loved most about this conversation is that we talked about so much more than careers. We talked about identity, confidence, taking risks, building meaningful relationships, and what it looks like to create a life that feels aligned with who you are.

Kaila is the type of person who makes every room better simply by being in it, and I think you'll feel that through your speakers.

This one is thoughtful, honest, and full of wisdom. You don't want to miss it. 🎙️🤍

This episode just hits a little different. Like I always say, these conversations keep getting more and more special to me.

I met Steph through The Post, an incredible community of former collegiate and professional athletes who continue to push themselves long after their playing days are over. It’s a community filled with inspiring people, and Steph is absolutely one of them.

Right after this interview, I had a feeling I’ve had a few times doing this podcast — I just knew this was someone who would become a friend.

Steph feels like she’s lived nine lives. She’s a Marine veteran, a sober woman active in AA, a former collegiate athlete, a founder, an influential fitness instructor, and someone building a successful corporate career. But beyond the titles, she’s deeply intentional, thoughtful, and kind.

We talk about reinvention and the discipline it takes to keep evolving through different chapters of life — from the Marine Corps to athletics, sobriety, and entrepreneurship.

Her reminder is simple but powerful: asking for help doesn’t make you weaker, it makes you stronger. And when we open up about our stories, we give others permission to do the same.

I’m grateful to now call Steph a friend. You don’t want to miss this one.

I love sharing the biggest lessons from each episode — and wow, it was LONG overdue. As I get close to two years of the show and 45 episodes, I’m realizing just how much these conversations have changed me.

Some of my biggest takeaways since January:

✨ You can redefine success anytime
✨ Advocate for yourself — stretch moments change lives
✨ Alignment matters more than hustle
✨ Unlearn old stories, unlock abundance
✨ Growth lives outside comfort
✨ Community changes everything

The theme I keep coming back to?
We become who we’re surrounded by.

I’m endlessly grateful for every guest who’s inspired me, challenged me, and helped me evolve — and for every one of you who listens, supports, and shares this journey with me.

This past year changed me in the best way. I’m just getting started.
Here’s to an even bigger 2026 🥂✨

Be thoughtful about who — and what — shapes you.

This is an episode you do not want to miss. Ben and I met through the boxing gym years ago, and now we’re both part of the Haymakers alumni crew — and trust me, he is a winner in every sense of the word.

What I’ve admired most is getting to watch Ben live with such intentionality: in his mind, his body, and his career. He’s a founder, a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, and truly one of the kindest, most thoughtful humans I know.

This is someone you’re going to want to learn from.

Full episode is out now — you do not want to miss it.

This episode just hits a little different. Like I always say, these conversations keep getting more and more special to me.
Our next guest, Chris Caldwell, is a business owner, a dad, a coach, a sales trainer, a leader, a proud husband—and a man who continues to evolve in the coolest way, period. Chris has personally impacted me through the Alluviants community I’m part of, and this conversation is packed with so many nuggets of wisdom.

One of the most powerful themes? Taking responsibility for how you interact with other human beings. Full stop.

You do not want to miss this one. Chris is a special dude, and this episode is something I know will stay with you long after you listen.

While this podcast always means the world to me, getting to sit down with family hits in a whole different way.

This next episode is with my uncle — someone I’ve known my entire life, but got to truly know in a new way through this conversation. He’s a dad of four, has had a successful career, is married to my aunt (and godmother), recently sober, and at 62 is still dreaming, still growing, still becoming.

His story is a powerful reminder that it is never too late to change your life — if, in his words, you’re willing to “get over yourself.”

This one is incredibly special. Lots of tears. Come ready. You dont' want to miss this one🎙️🤍

These solo episodes are always a little scary for me. It’s easy for me to sit down with someone else, ask the right questions, and help them open up — but being the one who’s fully seen is still a vulnerable place, even for someone who’s generally open.

This year was a big one for me, and I hope this reflection episode lands with you in a meaningful way. My biggest takeaway — and the thing I’m carrying with me — is this: I will always express my needs and desires clearly and confidently.

Love you all. Enjoy.
