    Episode 16 - Part 1: The Truth Behind The Message (Anthony's Story)

    Send us a text with any questions/topics you would like us to discuss. Welcome back to the Prime Parent Podcast. Today’s episode is a little different. You guys have heard us talk about health, discipline, parenting, burnout, consistency, mindset… all the things we’re passionate about. But we realized something… We’ve never fully told you WHY these conversations matter so much to us. So for the next two episodes, we’re flipping the script. This episode is all about Anthony’s story. The experiences that shaped him. The struggles people probably never saw. The pressure, the setbacks, the lessons, the moments that changed him… and the mission behind why he cares so deeply about helping people now. Honestly, this might be one of the most uncomfortable conversations we’ve recorded… but probably one of the most important. Because behind every message is a story. And today, we’re telling it.

    Episode 15 - Part 2: Success → Self-Sabotage → Rebuild | Chasing Passion | Greg’s Story

    Send us a text with any questions/topics you would like us to discuss. This is part two of our conversation with Greg Johnstone. In part one, we talked about the cycle, finding success, losing control, and repeating the same patterns over and over again. We left off at the moment things started to shift, but the story doesn’t end there. In this episode, we dive into what it actually looked like for Greg to start breaking that cycle, the struggles that still showed up, and what finally helped him move forward for good.

    Episode 15 - Part 1: Success → Self-Sabotage → Rebuild | Chasing Passion | Greg’s Story

    Send us a text with any questions/topics you would like us to discuss. Today’s episode is a real one. We’re sitting down with Greg Johnstone, and this is a story about success, self-sabotage, and what it actually takes to rebuild your life. Greg didn’t come from a place with a clear blueprint for success. He figured things out as he went, built a scrappy mindset, and found ways to win in different areas.  But at the same time, there was always a pattern running in the background. Find success, reward it, lose control, and repeat. Drinking became the answer to everything. Stress, celebration, bad days, good days… it didn’t matter. And even when things looked good on the outside, there was no real fulfillment behind it.  Eventually, that path led him to start chasing something he actually cared about, getting into content and comedy, making people laugh, and finding a real sense of purpose for the first time. But the patterns didn’t just disappear. And when he became a father, everything started to hit different. Because now it wasn’t just about him anymore. it was about the example he was setting, and the life he was building for his son.  This episode dives into that turning point, the moment where he realized he was still stuck in the same cycle, and what it took to finally start breaking it. If you’ve ever felt like you keep starting over or like you can’t hold onto the progress you make, this one’s going to hit.

    Episode 14: Navigating the Winter Blues — Stop Surviving. Start Regulating.

    Send us a text with any questions/topics you would like us to discuss. Welcome to episode 14 of The Prime Parent Podcast, where we break down what it really takes to operate at your highest level… not just in the gym, but in your energy, your focus, and your daily life. Today we’re talking about something almost everyone feels, but not enough people address… the winter blues. This is the time of year when January motivation fades, the days get shorter, and without even realizing it, you slip into survival mode. Workouts feel heavier, your diet starts drifting, energy drops, cravings go up, and caffeine becomes mandatory. You tell yourself, “I just need to get through winter.” But here’s the truth… this isn’t laziness, weakness, or age. It’s dysregulation. Today we’re breaking down what’s actually going on, why it happens, how to recognize if you’re in it, and most importantly, how to get out of it and rebuild momentum before spring even gets here. Because spring shouldn’t save you… it should reveal the work you’ve already done. Let’s dive in.

    Episode 13: The Unwritten Rules of Being a Parent

    Send us a text with any questions/topics you would like us to discuss. We’re recording this during a snowstorm here in New York. We woke up early, threw on the boots, grabbed the shovel, cleaned off the driveway, cleaned off our wives cars, made sure the walkway was safe… and nobody asked us to do it. There wasn’t a meeting. There wasn’t a reminder. There wasn’t a thank you in advance. We just did it. And it got us thinking about something… there’s this unwritten code that most dads and parents live by. Rules no one teaches us. No handbook. No checklist. But we feel them. Today we’re talking about that code. The unwritten rules of being a parent… and why that same standard needs to show up in your health, your strength, and your leadership at home.”

    Episode 12 - Part 2: From Undrafted to the NFL and Beyond: Life, Fatherhood, and Purpose | ft. Blake Costanzo

    Send us a text with any questions/topics you would like us to discuss. Welcome to Episode 12 - Part 2 of the Prime Parent Podcast This is Part 2 of our conversation with former NFL linebacker Blake Costanzo. If Part 1 was about earning a spot and surviving at the highest level, this episode is about what comes next and how Blake redefined success after football. We talk about fatherhood, being fully present, and the intentional decisions he made to live below his means, protect his time, and focus on what truly matters. Blake doesn’t just talk about balance. He lives it. He’s someone who personally helped me step off the hamster wheel, realign with what matters most, and reclaim my time, health, and purpose. In a world that constantly pulls us in every direction, this conversation is a powerful reminder that the future isn’t promised and the present is all we really have. Let’s get into Part 2.

Welcome to Episode 12 - Part 1 of the Prime Parent Podcast , where we explore what it means to show up as the best version of ourselves in the most important roles we have: as parents, partners, and people.

Blake Costanzo is a former NFL linebacker who beat the odds, rising from undrafted free agent out of Lafayette College to playing for the Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, and San Francisco 49ers. But what makes Blake truly remarkable isn't just what he did on the field—it's who he is off the field. Blake is a man who redefined what success looks like, both during and after his career. He's a devoted father, a grounded human being, and someone who truly lives present. He doesn’t just talk about work-life balance, he lives it. He’s taught me, personally, how to step off the hamster wheel, realign with what matters, and reclaim my time, my health, and my purpose. In a world where we’re constantly pulled in a thousand directions, Blake’s ability to tune out distractions and live with intention is something we all need to hear. So let’s dive in! This is going to be a good one.
