    Ep. 5 – Overwhelm vs Discipline: What Actually Matters in 2026

    January brings big motivation… and real life shows up fast—especially for busy parents. In Episode 5, Kim and Kyle cut through the noise and talk about what actually works when it comes to health, discipline, and consistency in 2026. You’ll hear why most people don’t fail because they “don’t know what to do”—they fail because health stays optional. They break down how to simplify habits, stop chasing trends, and build identity-based discipline that survives real life. If you’ve ever felt “behind” in your health journey, this episode is your reset: small steps, clear standards, and doing what matters consistently. Highlights - January exposes reality fast—especially for moms with full schedules and zero extra time. - Foundational habits beat extremes: movement, protein, hydration, check-ins, and don’t quit. - The biggest January mistake: one imperfect day turns into “January is over… 2026 is over.” - A simple truth: people want the mountaintop without the climb. - Overwhelm is real, but it gets worse when health is treated like an optional priority. - Motivation is a feeling—and feelings fade. Discipline is the decision to do it anyway. - The “win” strategy: start stupid simple (like a morning glass of water) and stack momentum. - Clarity shows up when standards are set—overwhelm shows up when everything is optional. - Stop chasing “impressive” trends—build routines that survive real life (not detoxes and resets). - Health isn’t selfish—it changes how you show up for your family and what your kids learn to value.

    Ep. 4 - When Everything Feels Important: Redefining Balance (Faith, Family, Finance, Fitness)

    In this real-life, no-script conversation, Kim and Kyle talk about what it feels like when everything demands your attention, cleaning the house, staying in shape, being present with the kids, building the business, and trying to keep faith and finances steady. They break down why “balance” can feel impossible, how small daily habits create stability, and why the real goal isn’t splitting your time perfectly, it’s learning to be fully present in the moment you’re in. If you’ve felt overwhelmed, behind, or like you’re falling short in every area, this episode will help you reset with a healthier mindset: progress over perfection. Hightlights “When everything feels important, nothing is actually important.”Why they’re intentionally keeping this episode real life (no “expert” talk).The daily anchors they’re sticking to: gym consistency, push-ups, core work, Bible reading.The honest truth: balance doesn’t feel real—and expectations create overwhelm.How sleep + a toddler in the room has thrown things off (and what they’re doing about it).Their house setup isn’t functional for this season and the plan to fix it.The mental trap of “if it’s not finished, it’s not done” (and how it steals focus).Parenting + work: why shifting from “kid mode” to “creative work mode” is so hard.Money stress in real life: the “I won’t even buy shampoo” mindset + the weekly finance check-in that fell off.The biggest takeaway: balance is presence, not percentages plus boundaries that protect what matters most.

    Ep. 3 - The Calendar Doesn’t Lie: Planning a Year You’ll Actually Remember

    Episode 3 of The Better Today Podcast is a real-time recap of what happened after we bought the Big-Ass Calendar and tried to plan an entire year in one sitting. Spoiler: it shocked us. We talk about the panic of seeing so many “blank” days, how comparison can steal joy when you watch other people’s epic calendars, and what a normal day actually looks like in a household with kids, work, and nonstop responsibilities. Then we break down the big pieces we did put on the calendar, our Misogi “big thing” (75 Hard), mini family adventures, a couple bigger trips, and quarterly goals that keep family, fitness, faith, and finances moving forward without adding unrealistic pressure. This year isn’t about filling every box, it’s about planning memories, building momentum, and letting small daily actions compound into a better year. Hightlights “We thought we had this in the bag…” until the calendar showed how little of the year was actually planned. The shock of blank days and the panic of feeling like you’re “supposed” to fill them. Comparison trap: watching other people’s travel-filled calendars and realizing their “life” is totally different. Busy days don’t mean a full year being productive daily doesn’t automatically create memorable seasons. What a real “blank day” looks like in a family with kids: school runs, client work, gym, dinner, bedtime, late-night edits. The big yearly challenge (Masogi): choosing 75 Hard because it impacts fitness, mindset, and life without stealing family time. How you’ll actually do 75 Hard with kids (walks, outside workouts, weight vest, and fitting it into real life). “Fun has to be scheduled or it disappears.” Planning mini adventures every other month to build core memories. Vacations don’t happen by accident putting trips on the calendar forces you to protect the time and communicate it. Quarterly goals across the pillars: daily Bible/devotional, making the bed, family walks, and reading a business book together—small habits that build confidence and compound.

    Ep. 2 - The Big-Ass Calendar: Planning a Life, Not Just a Year

    In Episode 2 of Better Today, Kyle and Kim are fresh off a 12-hour road trip home from Christmas in upstate New York and days away from the new year. Instead of chasing a huge list of resolutions, they’re shifting their focus to something simpler: building a year with more control, more alignment, and less “reaction mode.” They talk about why vision boards and notebooks haven’t worked for them (real life always wins), why motivation fades fast, and how planning needs to include the gaps between the goals. This year, they’re trying a new approach: the “big-ass calendar” system, built around four pillars faith, family, finance, and fitness plus a push to plan what they want to remember, not just what they want to accomplish. They also discuss the Misogi concept (a year-defining challenge), “six mini adventures,” and how planning your year together as a couple can reduce friction and build better teamwork. Highlights: Coming home from a big Christmas trip: why being “back to normal” feels like a reset The shift from massive goals to wanting daily control, structure, and alignment Kyle’s word of the year: Optimize, and what an optimized weekday actually looks like Kim’s word of the year: Alignment, why she doesn’t want a “bigger” year, just a better one Why most New Year’s goals fail: people plan the to-do list, not the reality in-between Vision boards vs. real life: why aesthetics don’t equal action The new approach: planning around 4 pillars Faith, Family, Finance, Fitness Faith as a family focus: building a routine, finding a local church, and leading the kids well Finance without stress: budget check-ins, intentional spending, and planning experiences on purpose The “big-ass calendar” system: planning what you want to remember before life fills the year for you

    Ep. 1 - Progress, Not Perfection (Business, Kids, Health & the One-Fire Rule)

    Welcome to episode one of the Better Today Podcast. Kyle and Kim are back behind the mic with a real-life reset: building a business while raising three kids, protecting their marriage, staying healthy, and learning to stop chasing perfection. They talk about why this podcast exists (the conversations they have in the car and on the couch), what “Better Today” actually means (tiny daily choices that compound), and why the key to momentum is focus—stop building new fires and stoke the one that’s already working. Plus: a fitness PR fueled by one full night of sleep, a big new client win, and what listeners can expect from the show going forward. Highlights Why Better Today exists: the real conversations Kyle & Kim have when the day is done—business, marriage, kids, and life.The “shouldn’t I be further along?” feeling and why this podcast is for people in the middle of the grind.What “Better Today” means: progress over perfection—small, daily 1% choices that compound.Perfectionism confession: if it can’t be done “right” immediately, it’s easy to quit—so the goal is consistency instead.The shift from scattered to focused: stop starting new things and go all-in on the one that’s working.The “one kid vs. three kids” reality check and how it reshaped their priorities and goals.Goals evolving with life: trading “$50M company” dreams (for now) for family dinners, gym time, vacations, and peace.What to expect from the podcast: short episodes during nap time, practical weekly real-life recaps—wins, failures, lessons.Wins of the week: Kim’s 185 lb bench PR after a rare full night of sleep; Kyle landing a new long-term client using co-op marketing money.The takeaway challenge: focus on one goal—stoke the fire you’ve got instead of trying to build ten new ones.
