Three years ago, three years into Underdog, Underdog Energy came to life. Today, we celebrate how far we’ve come — from testing formulas and cold-calling stores to landing on shelves, building a community, and fueling a movement.

In this special anniversary episode, we take a look back at the highs, lows, lessons, and the moments that defined the Underdog journey. You’ll hear behind-the-scenes stories — the late nights, near breakdowns, and breakthroughs that shaped who we are today.

Whether you’ve been here since day one or just joined the pack, this episode is a reminder of what it means to be an Underdog.

In this episode of The Underdog Podcast, we sit down and open up about a chapter that’s come to a close—our hockey careers. From youth leagues to college rinks, we reflect on the lessons the game taught us that go far beyond the ice.

We talk about:

• What it feels like when the game that shaped your identity suddenly ends
• The mindset shift that comes when your routine, teammates, and purpose change
• The habits hockey gave us that now drive our lives and businesses
• Why being an underdog didn’t end—it just evolved

Whether you're an athlete in transition or just someone navigating the end of a big chapter, this one’s for you.
