    009 - How Do I Make Results Like This Person (Fit Talk Fridays)

    In this episode, I talk about how you can make results like your role models in the fitness space. But first, I cover why this is a flawed premise and why you should only compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today.

    006 - Letting Go Of Things That No Longer Serve Us

    In Episode 006, I talk about letting go of habits, patterns, and identities that no longer serve us. Oftentimes, we develop parts of ourselves through infancy years, our genetics, DNA, and how we were brought up. These parts of us served a critical need at one time or another, but now no longer serve us, and may even be holding us back. We'll chat through examples of areas we should consider letting go of, talk through how to identify these areas, and steps we can take to overcome these parts of us that are no longer serving us.

    004 - Live Just Outside Your Comfort Zone

    In this episode, I talk about living just outside your comfort zone as a path for personal growth. In many ways, the life we want is just outside our comfort zone, if we can embrace the fear and anxiety to get there. The fear and anxiousness of discomfort will always be present, but once we learn to channel our fear into energy, we can take small, incremental steps outside our comfort zone to help us grow and develop a better life.

    003 - Sprinter vs Marathoner's Mindset

    In this episode, I talk through two different mental models: a Sprinter's Mindset vs a Marathoner's Mindset, the difference between the two, and where it may make sense to deploy one mental model versus another. Each approach has its benefits and shortcomings, and I'll delve into each one on today's episode.

    002 - Go Faster (by being around faster people)

    In this episode, I discuss how you can go faster (and further) in life by surrounding yourself with faster people. Our environment can often dictate how fast and how far we can go, and it's important to assess our environment and how it may be limiting us. I discuss the lessons I learned in my last obstacle course race at Fenway Park in 2022 on how to go faster and go further by surrounding yourself with faster people.
