Welcome to the warm up episode of We’re Just Getting Warmed Up!

In this episode, host Drew Schrader shares why he started this podcast, where the idea of warm ups came from, and the personal morning routine he leans on to get into flow. Along the way, you’ll hear how a Steph Curry pregame ritual, productivity science, and the small sparks of daily life all connect to one big idea: beginnings matter.

• Why Drew believes warm-ups are the most overlooked part of performance, work, and creativity
  
• How watching Steph Curry’s pregame routine inspired this entire project
  
• The 4-part formula Drew uses for his ideal mornings
  
• The shadow side of routines (and how to avoid getting pulled off-track)
  

This isn’t just about morning routines—it’s about preparation in all parts of life. Drew introduces the core theme of the podcast: learning from athletes, creators, educators, and leaders about how they warm up for what matters most.

Drew wants to hear from you:

• What gets you into your groove?
  
• What rituals, hacks, or routines set you up for success?
