    From Couch To Everything:  Tips on How to Start Your Very Own Training Path to Running

    From Couch To Everything:  Tips on How to Start Your Very Own Training Path to Running. “Every expert was once a beginner, embrace the journey.” ~ R. Sharma Part 2   Sometimes the hardest thing to do is just get started.  Taking the first step toward any new adventure takes hope and confidence.  The hope is, what you are doing will make a difference, and the confidence comes from, knowing that you are up for the challenge.   At the turn of every new calendar year people will make new year’s resolutions and many of those resolutions will revolve around fitness.  People will start a running routine or join a gym or yoga classes.  Then after about two weeks the drive and determination start to fade and slowly, they stop trying.   Over my 20 plus years of running I have learned that the key to staying consistent is making your goals a priority.  In this second part on running, I explain and share some of the things that have kept me inspired and driven me to continue pushing even when I have had to take temporary breaks due to injuries.   I feel like this week’s information is exactly what every armature runner can use and if you have never considered making running a part of your lifestyle then maybe this episode will give you the confidence to get started.

    How To Begin Your Running Journey

    How To Begin Your Running Journey:  Tips Everyone Should Know Before Starting A Running Regimen. “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”  ~ Laozi Part 1 Every new adventure we decide to embark upon, we will have plenty of learning curves.  When I started out running, I thought to myself, how hard can it be?  You just hit the road or the treadmill, and you go.  To a great extent this thought process isn’t wrong, but the deeper truth is, there are a lot of things that a person should know if they want to grow and push their limits. I decided to break this information up into two episodes.  In this week’s episode I dive into the do’s and do not’s of preparing for a race.  Beyond the training, there are plenty of things that play into a person’s ability to achieve their goals and get better with each run. I give a breakdown of what clothing items to consider when running, how to get started, what things you can do to try and avoid injuries, and what lessons I have learned through the years and my many races. The major thing that I try to emphasize in this episode is that this journey must be about you.  This is your pathway to making a better you and creating challenges that help you grow not only as a runner, but as a person.  I am in no way a professional, but I can honestly say that I am a very seasoned armature.  I hope you find this information both helpful and inspirational.   Please continue to listen and support this podcast and be sure to check out my social media content on my website MotivateWithCoachCamp.com  Also, if you are interested in becoming an official sponsor of this podcast please click the link below to learn more.   👉 SPONSOR THIS PODCAST -  https://bit.ly/443wPRj You can find the Motivate with Coach Camp Podcast on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, TikTok, and Facebook Produced by Derrick Michaud and SRP Studios Podcasting

    Overcoming The Struggle with Alignment

    Overcoming The Struggle with Alignment   “Make a habit of asking yourself: Does this align with the life I’m trying to create.”  ~ Unknown In this episode I look at why people have trouble aligning their paths to find success.  Understanding why we often become distracted from our goals or having trouble getting to the finish line, will help us create better habits and a more organized thought process. I have been guilty of putting too many irons in the fire at the same time and then feeling overwhelmed and knowing what direction I need to go in next.  When we allow those moments to develop, we invite confusion and chaos into our lives.  My goal with this episode is to bring some awareness to how these things happen and hopefully give some tips and ideas of how to avoid those pitfalls. A very difficult hurdle to overcome is a person that is extremely ambitious and deals with ADD at the same time.  Organizing and prioritizing can be a daunting task.  I use myself and several of my past experiences to paint a picture of how I have learned to do better in these areas, and I hope that my revelations to my own life will somehow help you if you find yourself in a similar struggle.   A few things that must be present to make progress in better aligning your life is one, recognition, two, a desire to do better and three, patience.  The third one tends to be the one that I struggle with the most.   Please continue to listen and support this podcast and be sure to check out my social media content on my website MotivateWithCoachCamp.com  Also, if you are interested in becoming an official sponsor of this podcast, please click the link below to learn more.   👉 SPONSOR THIS PODCAST -  https://bit.ly/443wPRj You can find the Motivate with Coach Camp Podcast on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, TikTok, and Facebook Produced by Derrick Michaud and SRP Studios Podcasting

    The Shift You Can’t Leave: Traumatic Events That Stay With You Long After You Clock Out

    “Trauma creates change you don’t choose.  Healing is about creating change you do choose.”  ~ M. Rosenthal In the shadow of 9/11 having just passed on the 25th Anniversary of one of the darkest hours America has faced, I felt it appropriate to bring some attention to the sacrifice and dedication of our first responders.  I was a brand-new medic in 2001, and I can remember watching the twin towers fall and realizing that in that moment there were many people that just their life.  Later we all learned that it was 343 first responders to be exact.  There is a famous saying that goes, all gave some and some gave all.  This statement was never truer than on that day. I take a minute this week to honor those that have given their life to save others and at the same time bring awareness to the ever-growing need for more attention for better mental health programs.  Regardless of the years served, the calls you make will slowly take a piece of you.  The question will be, how will you hold up when the tones no longer go off. Over the years I have hosted multiple guest that have made it their life’s mission to helping those that are suffering and provide a pathway to hope for a better tomorrow.  I talk about a few of those previous guests on this episode and I leave you with a request to please reach out if you or someone you know is going through a difficult storm.  There are people out here that want to help, all you need to do is take that first step toward healing.

    Never Allow Others to Devalue Your Worth.

    Never Allow Others to Devalue Your Worth.   “Too many people overvalue what they are not and undervalue what they are.”  ~ M. Forbes   Regardless of your background, your accomplishments, your friend circles or your social status, anyone can fall victim to allowing others to steal their self-worth.  Listening to the negative drum beat of telling you what you can’t do, or you are not capable of, can be a poison. This week I look to drive home that our self-worth must be driven by our own confidence.  Too many times, we can focus on our shortcomings or our failures, and this can make you feel less than.  Then when someone comes along and points our one of those areas that you lack confidence, it can almost feel validating, and you lean into the belief that you are not capable. I was not immune to this type of thing growing up.  In fact, I can honestly say that this was the normal thought applied to my ability by most people when I was growing up.  Now, to be fair, I had never proven to anyone that I was capable of more up to a point in my late teen years.  However, the moment I decided I was worth more and that I was going to prove to myself that the only one holding me back was me, things started to change. My message this week is simply that…stop holding yourself back.  You will always be capable of more than you give yourself credit for, you just have to embrace what is possible and then be lased focused on achieving that goal.  I hope to stand as the example of what is possible for and as I often say, “if I can do it, so can you.” Please continue to listen and support this podcast and be sure to check out my social media content on my website MotivateWithCoachCamp.com  Also, if you are interested in becoming an official sponsor of this podcast please click the link below to learn more.   👉 SPONSOR THIS PODCAST -  https://bit.ly/443wPRj You can find the Motivate with Coach Camp Podcast on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, TikTok, and Facebook Produced by Derrick Michaud and SRP Studios Podcasting

    Why We Should Embrace Our Failures.

    Why We Should Embrace Our Failures.  This week we take a long look at how our failures help us succeed. “Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”  ~ W. Churchill How do we grow through adversity; we must learn to embrace our failures.  No one wakes up and says to themselves that they want to make mistakes or face difficulties.  However, it is inevitable that we will all have setbacks and ultimately come up short of our goals.  When we face one of those moments, the only question left to answer next is, what are we going to do about it, or better yet…what will we do with it? Some of the most impactful learning lessons that I have ever received in my life came at the hands of an incredible failure.  Working extremely hard at something does not always end with things working out the way you wanted them to.  I found this out several times throughout my life.  The pain and the loss of direction can sometimes leave you feeling defeated and without direction.   This was true for me early in my life, but when I finally figured out that each setback and upset had a purpose, I started to grow in ways that I had never grown before.  My perspective was, the setback gave me tools that I would never had gotten if things would have worked out the way I wanted them to.  Ultimately that was going to make me stronger and better in the long run. This week I share some of those moments that gave me a completely different appreciation for those difficult moments and put me into a more focused mindset.  I know that each of you out there have plenty of relatable stories or moments and given the right perspective, you may be much better than you give yourself credit for and ready to tackle the next great challenge that is headed your way.

    You don’t have to be at your best to give your best

    You don’t have to be at your best to give your best.  This week I take a deep dive into the importance of giving your best in whatever you do. “Give your best effort, because you are worth your best effort.”  ~ D. Waitley   This week I take the podcast in a new direction.  I am going to hit on a new topic each week that explores how we can improve our approach to life and get the most out of the years that we are blessed to have on this earth. This week I talk about the importance of always giving your best.  More often than not we will not be at our best, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t give our best.  When we show up to the challenge we have already done more than many will do.  Regardless, of reason for not being at our best, when we give all that we have, we will ultimately walk away from most instances a better person than when we started.   I share personal stories of how I knew going  into certain situations I wasn’t feeling like I had the best version of myself, but by giving all that I had, I always walked away feeling like I had grown as a person.  My goal is to connect with people each week in a very relatable way to inspire and motivate others to constantly work on being a better version of themselves, and give all that they have in whatever they decide to do.

    Amber Williams, CEO of Life House: Creating Stability for Single Mothers

    One Mothers, One Mission: Creating Stability for Single Mothers.  My guest this week is Mrs. Amber Williams. She is the CEO of Life House, a nonprofit that helps expecting mothers find stability. “Life’s greatest rewards are reserved for those who help others succeed.”  ~ S. Parrish My guest this week is Mrs. Amber Williams.  Amber and her husband Brock are the CEO’s and founders of ‘Life House’ a nonprofit organization that provides free housing and resources for women facing unplanned pregnancies.   Amber shares that after more than two decades of working in the beautician industry she was feeling a calling to help women that were facing uncertain futures by an unplanned pregnancy.  Amber explains that when she was young, she faced a very similar circumstance, and it was her sister that came to her aid and let her know that she wouldn’t have to face the challenges of being a single mom alone.   After retiring from being a beautician her and her husband decided to look for a house they could purchase and start this ministry for others.  Amber describes how she leaned on others that had stated other similar organizations to help a need in the community.  So with her husband by her side and her faith in the Lord she took that first step and before she knew it they were off and running.  I encourage you to hear her message and consider supporting if you are lead.  You can learn more by going to their website www.chooselife.house and you can email at chooselife.house@gmail.com Please continue to listen and support this podcast and be sure to check out my social media content on my website MotivateWithCoachCamp.com  Also, if you are interested in becoming an official sponsor of this podcast please click the link below to learn more.   👉 SPONSOR THIS PODCAST -  https://bit.ly/443wPRj You can find the Motivate with Coach Camp Podcast on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, TikTok, and Facebook Produced by Derrick Michaud and SRP Studios Podcasting
