    Inside College Football Coaching + Why Your Habits Matter | w/ Chastin Evans

    In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend Chastin Evans, assistant receivers coach with Texas State Bobcats football, for a conversation that blends mindset, coaching, and real life. We talk through his journey into coaching, the ins and outs of daily life in college football, and what it really takes to stay consistent in a demanding environment. We also get into why developing a strong “why” matters and how your habits should reflect the mission you’re chasing. Along the way, we mix in personal stories from growing up and some of his favorite memories from the game. It’s a laid-back conversation with real insight, good perspective, and plenty of laughs along the way.

    Breaking the Myths Around Women's Fitness with Dr. Dixie Stanforth

    What does women’s fitness actually look like—and how much of what we believe is outdated? In this episode, I sit down with Dixie to break down some of the biggest myths surrounding women’s fitness. We start with her journey into training and her experience teaching at the University of Texas, then zoom out to challenge the idea that there’s ever been a “one-size-fits-all” approach to health and performance. We dive into how women’s fitness has evolved—from a time when strength training wasn’t even part of the conversation in the 70s and 80s, to where we are today—and why some old mindsets still stick around. We also get into the why behind it all:  Why bone density should be on every woman’s radar  The importance of getting baseline health testing  And how understanding your body can completely change the way you train Whether you’re just getting started or have been training for years, this episode is about shifting perspective, asking better questions, and building a smarter, more personalized approach to fitness.

    Lessons from the Training Floor with Rob Smith

    In Episode 2 of Life in Motion, I sit down with Rob Smith, the Fitness Director at the club where I work to talk about his journey into the world of personal training and what decades on the training floor have taught him about helping people stay active. We discuss what separates the clients who remain consistent for years from those who struggle to stick with it—especially adults balancing careers, families, and busy schedules. From older clients looking to maintain their health to parents trying to fit workouts into chaotic weeks, this conversation highlights the habits, mindsets, and simple routines that actually last. We also talk about the overwhelming amount of fitness advice online and why learning to tune out the noise can help people focus on what truly works for their body, their goals, and their stage of life. If you’re someone trying to stay active while juggling real life—or you’re curious about what keeps people moving well into later decades—this episode offers practical insight from years of real-world coaching experience.
