I often wonder how the professional athletes make the foul shot when the stadium is thumping. Or how they drive the golf ball on the cutthroat round of the Masters Tournament. Because my version of that foul shot is hopping into a new business client meeting, or the moments before a webinar starts, or I […]
Stories of outdoor active professionals, entrepreneurs, CEOs and athletes who are pushing boundaries and redefining how we do life and business: on our own terms.
Our story impacts how we show up in the world. Think about that. You might think you don't have an interesting story to tell but you do. We don't have to be founders of tech giants and global brands. We define what success means to us and we live it. By doing things that fulfill us while striving for more and kicking ass, but having fun along the way. We fill our lives with adventure (another word we get to define for ourselves and not compare to others) and we push ourselves physically and mentally, to overcome obstacles that make achievement that much sweeter.
This show is for us. Listen in and gear up for what's next.

Science of the Mind: Training Our Brains for Better Performance
Get psyched, have fun, do the thing Today’s episode will show you the importance of focusing more on your nervous system to perform better and to live more optimistically and fully.

Growing Old and Being Smart About Playing Outdoors So You Don’t Eff Yourself Up
The best piece of gear we each have is our bodies. And I want mine to last. I want to be that 80-year old woman who’s still skiing (just like I want to be that 80-year old couple in the park in Paris.) Every single time I find myself out running, skiing, mountain biking – […]
Can An Entrepreneur Run a Business, Stay Sane, and Be Fit at the Same Time?
Today’s episode is a bit about perseverance. It’s about getting into something and sticking with it (we talk about running, but it’s a metaphor for anything). It’s also about recognizing that we all have crazy. There is no avoiding it. But we can hang on tight and try to have a fun ride. I talk […]

Comparing Fear Thresholds with a Ski Mountaineer – a metaphor on life
I think today’s episode will change the way you tackle projects that scare the hell out of you. It did for me. Whether I’m mountain biking, skiing, prepping for a client presentation, a speaking engagement, or even just a difficult conversation, inevitably, something makes me nervous, if not downright panic-stricken. And then I ask why […]

Will a Better Mountain Bike Make Me a Better Mountain Biker?
