067: We All Start From Zero | A Founder’s Journey
In this episode, I'm sharing a new installment in the "Founder's Journey" series about starting from zero. Humble beginnings are nothing to be ashamed of.

This episode will give you a peek behind the curtain of where I started and how I've grown personally and in business to inspire you to take the first step.

064: The Lessons I Learned in Nashville | A Founder’s Journey
Today's episode marks the end of my filming in Nashville. As my family and I move back to Texas, I am looking back at the last eight months and how valuable they have been as a season for me to sharpen my ax. There are hundreds of lessons I've learned in this season, but in this episode, I'm picking the six that have impacted me the most. I am so grateful for my time in Nashville because, with it, I am now returning to Texas more energized and full of vision and inspiration, ready to build the next chapter of BPN.

063: The Fuel Guide to Lift Heavy and Run Far
In this week’s episode, I am breaking down the nutrition you need to lift heavy and run far. We are constantly inundated with information on social media and the internet about new studies and diets, and it’s easy to be pulled into a particular way of thinking without being diligent in doing the research ourselves. The methods are many, but the concepts are few. The perfect diet is the one you can adhere to. I will be taking you on a deep dive into what I consume as a hybrid athlete and how it works to fuel my performance. Enjoy!
