Open Up And Om

I was lucky enough to meet Rob Clark when we shared the cover of YEG Fitness earlier this year, and we finally got to sit down for a chat. Many of you might know Rob as the Edmonton Oilers anthem singer, but spend a few hours listening to our chat and you'll quickly find out that is just 1% of this amazing humans life. Follow his adventures on IG or Twitter.

Sean and I met through the world of November Project, and we've had the chance to bond over some silly adventures ever since that fateful day. You're just as likely to find Sean running as you are finding him chilling with his Netflix...or at the movies. You can follow is adventures on Instagram.

While every episode is a story, this episode was special. The folks behind MIND (S)PACE asked if I wanted to participate in a collaboration, where I could take the podcast to a live audience. Without a hesitation, the answer was yes. So on one of the coldest nights of the year, I hosted a story slam with three amazing people. Big thanks to lululemon for providing the space and to everyone who came for creating the warmth. The evening kicked off with Justine Barber of Poppy Barley fame, who you'll hear talk about entrepreneurship and running, before moving on to Joshua Bergman, the creator of the Edmonton Pride Run & Walk, and then Josefina Kaderabek who spoke about the challenges faced after a major (and I mean major) injury. Make sure you follow them on Instagram for all their adventures. Photos for the event courtesy of Dean Tumibay.

Alana is one of those amazing, goal crushing people that instantly makes your life a little brighter. She has an amazing ability to suffer, and her list of accomplishments is stupidly long. You can follow her adventures on Instagram.

Everyone's favourite boyfriend came by the house today to talk. If you know Rob McDougall, you know he's an inspiring human doing an amazing job at being awesome in the world. Spend any time with him and you'll want to do something, whether that's cook, connect, run, travel..you get it. If you want more, follow his adventures on Instagram and Twitter.

November 2018 was a big month for Dave, Donny and I as we headed south to discover the sites and sounds of Peru. To help draw out the stories and add some flair to the recap, we brought in Rob McDougall and Jamie Klassen to ask questions and help us stay on schedule.
