    Don't Negotiate With Yourself: The Blueprint Behind Porch to Podium

    Don’t Negotiate With Yourself We had a question sitting on our shoulders since before we even had a business: How do you help fund the sports programs at your kids’ schools when you’re a startup that isn’t making real profit yet? Our first idea was simple: just give away a piece of what we made. But when we ran the math, the reality hit us—we’d be donating pennies for years. That was the day MINING mentality stopped being an idea in our heads and became the tool that got us unstuck. You Can’t Skip to the Gold At its core, MINING mentality is about digging inward for what you actually need to build your life: self-awareness, courage, and discipline. You don’t get to skip straight to the gold. You have to start with the next single step, not the end goal. 3 Takeaways From Episode 4 * Remove the Option to Delay The second you leave yourself an out to “do it later,” you will take it. Don’t negotiate with yourself. Make the next step non-negotiable. * Count the Invisible Work Days spent researching, iterating designs, or structuring concepts don’t always check off a physical inventory list, but they are vital work. Write down your to-do list after the fact if you have to—proving your productivity keeps momentum alive. * Bring Value to Others First Whether collaborating with community foundations like the Hays Education Foundation or structuring local support, focusing on how you can genuinely serve others multiplies your impact far faster than trying to do everything alone. 🎧 Listen to Episode 4 now on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!

    Closing the Gap in Your Life & Vintage Grails (Bogner, Adidas, A&F) | Mining Mentality Ep. 2 Description: Welcome back to Episode 2 of the Mining Mentality podcast! A huge thank you to everyone who supported our launch—we are back, settled in, and ready to dig deep. In this episode, we break down the core concept of the “Mining Mentality”: how to dig inward to build the internal tools—like self-awareness, discipline, and silencing negative self-talk—required to achieve your external goals. We also introduce the Gap Assessment, a practical framework to help you rate seven key areas of your life and identify the one realistic step you can take today to start improving. Plus, stick around for the second half as we reveal the new “Dose Collection” drop from House of DIGS! We showcase three incredible vintage history pieces: * A rare 1930s/40s Bogner women’s one-piece ski suit (the brand of choice for the 1936 Olympic team and Marilyn Monroe). * A classic vintage Adidas golf/tennis dress with matching shorts, complete with a quick history lesson on the famous Adidas vs. Puma sibling rivalry. * An original 1940s Abercrombie & Fitch military-style outdoor jacket from the era when they outfitted legendary explorers like Teddy Roosevelt and Ernest Hemingway.
