In this episode, we dig deep into my history with competing, how I lost connection with my competitive edge, and how this busy dad of 3 girls redefined competing while being a business owner, OCR/Hybrid athlete, father, husband, and coach.

How do you define the word, "Compete"?

Losing your competitive edge when we become fathers is a normal stage in fatherhood but how do we get that fire back in our bellies and still be the present for our kids and family? How can competing against the man in the mirror, fitness events, or races benefit us in fatherhood and career growth?

Here is an inside look before the official podcast gets launched next week, sharing my experiences as a professional hockey player to becoming a first-time dad losing my connection with competing, gaining over 50 pounds, becoming an elite athlete again, and more.

Most importantly, we share my journey as a dad of 3 girls who reclaimed his health and how redefining "competition" as a father helped reconnect that spark within.
