    Ep. 76: Purpose Driven Patience with ONNIT Gym GM Larry Maloney

    Ep. 76: Purpose Driven Patience with ONNIT Gym GM Larry Maloney

    Larry Maloney is the GM at ONNIT Gym in Austin, TX. I've been in ATX for just over two years and closely tied to ONNIT since day one -- and Larry has been a big part of that. His leadership style is unique in ways I feel we can all learn from. Learn why he shows up the way that he does in this episode. Lots of leadership and persistence takeaways as well as his perspective on fatherhood and priorities.

    Ep. 75: Building Your Brand as a Coach & Creator with Taylor Dayne

    Ep. 75: Building Your Brand as a Coach & Creator with Taylor Dayne

    This episode of the podcast was an absolute DELIGHT. Taylor stopped by before heading off on her adventure from ATX for San Diego. We speak about relationships, our personal fitness journeys and our perspectives on delivering exceptional coaching whilst navigating brand building in the social media landscape. It is so refreshing to have such candid/unfiltered conversation.

    Ep. 74: Restored Hope - Celebrating One Year SOBER from Pain Medication and Alcohol with Tyson Mendeas

    Ep. 74: Restored Hope - Celebrating One Year SOBER from Pain Medication and Alcohol with Tyson Mendeas

    What started as a seemingly harmless way to medicate the pain from his kickboxing training... slowly became a real problem. Tyson moved to Austin TX, got involved in new community and parted ways with substances. He recently celebrated one year sober -- so we sat down to talk through what it's been like. Today he is the Head Coach at Archetype Boxing in ATX (a stunning facility that is open to the public running boxing classes daily). Thank you to Tyson for choosing to share. This message is powerful and all too relatable.

    Ep. 73: Grappling Through Adversity with Pro Jiu Jitsu Athlete Chloe McNally

    Ep. 73: Grappling Through Adversity with Pro Jiu Jitsu Athlete Chloe McNally

    Chloe is a Pan American, Brazilian National, No Gi World Champion and No Gi European Champion. She is training and coaching at Renzo Gracie in Austin, TX. We learn about her childhood growing up with horses and the traumatic accident she experienced with her horse that led her to pursue different goals. She fell in love with Jiu Jitsu while living in New York and has pursued that journey all the way to Austin, TX where she trains now. She tells the story of her gnarly neck injury and the road of recovery from that while continuing to coach & grow. She is thriving in training today and continuing her pursuits with passion and resilience.

    Ep. 72: Survive to Thrive - Former Pro Athlete, Cancer Survivor and Entrepreneur Jennifer Keddy

    Ep. 72: Survive to Thrive - Former Pro Athlete, Cancer Survivor and Entrepreneur Jennifer Keddy

    Jennifer Keddy is a literal comedy show. We dive in to Jenn's journey as a professional volleyball player, to her sudden cancer diagnosis and the turn her life took at that time. She advocated for herself and discovered things such as the healing she found through electrolyzed reduced water (she'll explain in episode). Today she is a 6 figure sales coach and in her words "stay highdrated".

    Ep. 71: How to Embrace being Single Today with Ryan Wekenman

    Ep. 71: How to Embrace being Single Today with Ryan Wekenman

    In this episode we learn more about the Ryan Wekenman, author of Single Today. Writing a book about singleness is a pretty uncommon thing to do. I've had the opportunity to get to know Ryan through Red Rocks ATX for the past nearly two years and find his perspective refreshing and uplifting... so why not have a sit down chat about his latest endeavor: Single Today. The book is a delightful read (regardless of relationship status) and has much that we can all benefit from. From forgiving our yesterday, to not getting too caught up in the tomorrow trap, to cultivating presence today.

Well done

I’ve been a follower of AG for a while, so I came here for that episode. The silent beginning and the random clip at the end of that episode was a little awkward, but otherwise—fabulous job! I know not much can be done once you upload lol

Refreshing conversation

I just found Claire’s podcast this week after seeing her at a CrossFit event. Her energy in personal is just as contagious and genuine as it is on this podcast. It was refreshing to hear some encouraging and genuine conversations with each guests she has on her show. Looking forward to continuing to listen and be encourage by positive outlook on even the most challenging things!
