Trauma from past events is often stored in our fascia as tension. In this podcast, I chat with structural medicine student, bodyworker, yoga instructor, and coach Adrienne Beattie. We have a similar interest in the function of the body and it made for one of my favorite episodes.

Joel Jamieson is a performance architect. He’s one of the most sought-after performance coaches in the world. He works with high-end professional athletes, in particular, combat and mma fighters like Demetrious Johnson. He’s incredibly versed in the sciences behind conditioning, recovery, the autonomic nervous system, and heart rate variability.

This is definitely one of my favorite episode of the podcast. It’s perfect to introduce non-hunters to the hunting lifestyle. Hillary is a naturopathic doctor and shares her story about how her struggles led her to become a naturopathic doctor. Ryan shares what hunting means to him and his passion for food procurement.

My friend Drew Ragan, from episode #11 of the podcast, brought me to a 2-hour kundalini workshop led by Josephine - a trauma-informed healer and yoga teacher. I had a transformational experience and invited Josephine to be on the podcast. We talk about her story, healing, kundalini yoga,  and the importance of breath work. She even leads me, and the listener, through a guided Breath of Fire practice.

There are a lot more questions than answers in this podcast, which is the way it should be. Jason has lived an interesting life and is living life on his own terms. He's an entrepreneur, part-time van lifer, spiritual seeker, cold plunger, ecstatic dancer, and an all-around good dude. I've really enjoyed getting to know him over the past few weeks. I know I say this a lot, but this is one of my favorite episodes.

Summer Huntington taught me how to swing 10-pound steel maces while dancing. She's a master of human movement (I don’t just throw around phrases like that either; her understanding of biomechanics is really incredible.) She’s the founder of Clubbell Yoga, host of the Flow State Summit, and a super interesting person all around.

There are some people that you just vibe with. Drew Ragan is one of those people for me. Drew isn't afraid of shining light onto the depths of his life story and how they've shaped who he has become. It was a killer podcast where we talk about a lot of deeper psychological and metaphysical ideas in a very grounded and pragmatic way.

This is the first podcast that I recorded on the podcast tour. We talk taking on maximal responsibility, Frank’s advice for young fitness professionals, the importance of oscillating between romantic and classical approaches to learning, and extending the concept of your body to include your environment.

Mike Savasuk owns a small gym in Montana, called Revo, that is geared toward outdoor performance clients. We chat about the root of motivation, what it means to move efficiently, and why it's important to train in multiple planes of motion. The fitness crowd will love this one.

Part 1 with Josh Akins was the most downloaded episode of the podcast. In part 2, we cover updating your belief system, opening the floodgates of the subconscious, and the psychology of special forces selection. We, allegedly, ate some weed brownies before this one, so the conversation has a fun ending. Enjoy!
