About The Third Space
From the publisher's feed
The Third Space is where fitness, business, health, fatherhood, and real life meet.
Hosted by CrossFit gym owners and longtime friends Wes Piatt of Coast Range…
CrossFit and Brian Boucher of MidState CrossFit, The Third Space is built around honest conversations about becoming better, not just in the gym, but in every area of life.
We talk training and health. We talk about the wins, mistakes, and hard lessons that come with owning a business. We talk marriage, fatherhood, leadership, mindset, and the constant challenge of trying to show up better for the people who count on us.
Some episodes will give you something practical to use in your training or business. Others might completely change direction and turn into a conversation we never expected to have.
That's kind of the point.
The Third Space is a place to step outside the noise, have conversations that matter, and hopefully walk away with something that helps you move closer to the person you want to become.
