Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber drop the full preview of the 2026 USATF Outdoor Track and Field Championships at Icahn Stadium in New York City, held Thursday through Sunday.CITIUS MAG will have daily end-of-day recap podcasts, a daily newsletter, and interviews on YouTube throughout the weekend.Watch on USATF.tv, Peacock, and NBC (Saturday and Sunday TV windows). Free tickets are available courtesy of Mayor Zohran Mamdani's 500-ticket giveaway for Thursday and Friday. If you live within a couple hours of Icahn Stadium, no excuses.Some of the events discussed in this episode:– Women's 10K (Thursday): Thin field after Karissa Schweizer scratched. Top eight from last year's USAs are not competing. Kyle's read: the scratch actually makes for a better race — more wide open.– Men's 10K (Thursday): 13 men entered. Grant Fisher versus Woody Kincaid as the headline matchup — Grant riding the momentum of his first Diamond League victory and doubling in the 5K.– Women's 100m (Friday): No MJW vs. Sha'Carri head-to-head.– Men's 100m (Friday): Noah Lyles vs. Kenny Bednarek. Noah has been everywhere at Fanatics Fest and FIFA World Cup events so the question is how much that toll has taken. Kenny knows this is a great opportunity to get one up on him.– Women's 3000m steeplechase (Saturday): One of the deepest American steeple fields of the season — seven athletes entered at 9:20 or faster. The fastest American time of the year comes out of this race.– Men's 3000m steeplechase (Saturday): Matt Wilkinson at 8:09 is the ninth-fastest man in the world and a clear favorite — remarkable given he was on crutches after last year's USAs and came back with a straight-up PR.– Men's 1500m (Saturday): Top five from last year not competing so the race opens up.– Women's 1500m (Saturday): The rest of the field will be watching Nikki rather than racing their own race, so it's becoming a Faith Kipyegon dynamic where others defer rather than attack.– Women's 800m (Sunday): Roisin Willis is the top seed and story of the year in the women's 800 — US indoor record holder, strong outdoor season, coming off a brilliant performance in Stockholm. Addy Wiley has a Diamond League victory.– Men's 800m (Sunday): Brandon Miller scratched after London. Cooper Lukhenhaus vs. Donavan Brazier as the top billing — two of three members of last year's World Championship team.– Women's 5K (Sunday): Parker Valby vs. Shelby Houlihan. These two have never raced. Parker has run 14:39 this season (going by herself, no one could hang). Shelby was fourth at Worlds, has been running 800s, 1500s, 2 miles, 10Ks — she's fit and she's an 8:15 person with the ultimate kick.– Men's 5K (Sunday): Grant Fisher the heavy favorite.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSBANDIT: For 2026, Bandit is providing support for any Unsponsored athletes competing at the USATF Outdoor Championships.

In this episode we discuss a small placebo-controlled crossover study on melatonin and caffeine in trained young men, looking at sprint performance, sleep, and recovery markers. We go over the main findings, including improved performance with caffeine and better recovery measures with melatonin, while noting that the study did not show better sleep. We also cover the study's limitations, including the small sample size and the high supplement doses used, and explain why we generally prefer lower melatonin doses and focus on sleep habits first. Later, we talk about a long-term training goal combining heavy lifts and a sub-25-minute 5K, and finish with an update on training tracking and wearables.

Jacob Cohen has run a 5K in a dog crate, a port-a-potty, and on top of the Empire State Building–-and no, he is not stopping anytime soon.Before he was the internet's favorite 5K guy, Cohen was an investment banker in Atlanta, overweight and grinding through a banking job while his content dream sat on the back burner. Running, however, changed everything.It helped him lose more than 40 pounds, and a run club of full-time creators convinced him to hit record. He posted for a year to 2,000 followers before a joke 5K around his coffee table in October 2025 lit the fuse: it led to 100,000 followers in 50 days and a full-blown escalation of the most absurd run locations imaginable.In this conversation with Dominic, Cohen pulls back the curtain on the videos everyone's friends keep sending them. He addresses the skeptics head-on (yes, he really does the 5Ks; the watch accuracy is another story), reveals his most physically miserable run location, and explains why the World Cup crowd was in on the bit. He also opens up about the deeper mission: rejecting the unattainable, chicken-and-rice version of fitness the internet sold him at his lowest, and proving working out can actually be fun.Plus, his surprisingly generous take on David Goggins, celebrity collabs with Diplo, Bert Kreischer, Teddy Swims, and Casey Neistat, his dream Great Wall of China 5K, and why the biggest what-if of his life was simply pressing record.Tap into the Jacob Cohen Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

Parker Wolfe was the 43rd man on a 42-man Olympic list. Now, he's making the case for rookie of the year in professional running.Dominic sits down with the Swoosh TC Flagstaff star to unpack a debut season that reads like a highlight reel: a USATF cross country title on a muddy Portland course, top American honors at World XC in Tallahassee, a first sub-13 indoor 5K, a 12:49.45 Diamond League debut in Oslo, and a front-running Prefontaine Classic two-mile win over Grant Fisher.Parker opens up about going from top dog at UNC to "the new kid on the block" as a pro, why the professional peak is the hardest one to climb, and how he nearly committed to Duke before Chapel Hill won him over. He breaks down the transition from Chris Miltenberg to Mike Smith—more mileage, double thresholds, and a Flagstaff training group so deep he never lacks a partner, from Ethan Strand and Nico Young to the occasional Galen Rupp appearance. He makes his case that full buy-in beats a perfect program, walks through the Mo Farah-inspired tactics behind his gutsy front-running win at Hayward, and lands on the lesson at the heart of it all: people overestimate what they can do in a season and underestimate what they can do in a couple years of consistency.Plus, decoding Nike's confusingly structured Swoosh TC, Parker's five-runner Netflix docuseries cast, Nuggets loyalty, and the Lil Wayne deposition tape Coach Smith screened before Cross Nationals.Tap into the Parker Wolfe Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

Reflections from host Sarah Olivieri ... The Power Of Shared Infrastructure There is a quiet assumption baked into how most nonprofits operate. If you need something, you build it yourself. Need a fundraising event, plan one. Need HR, handle it in-house. Need systems, cobble them together. The nonprofit shared infrastructure that could carry all of this rarely enters the conversation, because the default is to go it alone. I understand where the instinct comes from. Nonprofits are scrappy by necessity. Budgets are tight, and doing it yourself feels like the responsible, frugal choice. But there is a hidden cost to building everything from scratch, and it shows up in the same place every time. Your team's time. Your leadership's attention. The liability nobody was watching. The event that ate six months of staff capacity to net twelve thousand dollars. When an organization tries to be its own event company, its own HR department, and its own back office all at once, it is running several businesses it never meant to start. And none of them get the focus they need to be excellent. I've been thinking about this lately I recently had a conversation about exactly this with Bob Burbridge, founder of the Battle Green Run Foundation and a longtime leader in the HR world. He built something that lets small nonprofits plug into infrastructure they could never build on their own, and that changes what is possible for them. Running An event is a business, not a fundraiser Here is the thing most nonprofits underestimate. A run, a walk, a gala, a conference. These are not fundraisers you tack onto your year. Each one is a whole business, with its own logistics, systems, vendors, permits, marketing, and expertise. Bob's foundation exists to run one road race well. Twelve board members. A website that handles all the fees. Relationships with sixty local restaurants. Decades of accumulated knowledge about how to actually pull it off. That is what it takes to do an event at a level where the numbers work. Now picture a small nonprofit deciding to launch its own 5K to raise money. Same permits. Same logistics. Same insurance. Same marketing. Except now it is being done by two staff members who already have full-time jobs, learning it all for the first time, for an event that might clear ten thousand dollars if everything goes right. The math rarely favors building your own event from zero. The work is enormous and the expertise is real, and both are invisible until you are standing in the middle of them. Before any organization takes on an event, it helps to ask a hard question. Are we prepared to run this like the business it actually is? If the honest answer is no, that is worth knowing before you commit a year of your team's life to it. Shared infrastructure changes the math This is where Bob's model gets interesting, because it solves the problem from a completely different direction. Instead of each nonprofit building its own event, one organization builds the event infrastructure once, and many nonprofits plug into it. A small nonprofit brings a team of runners. They raise money through a website that already exists, run by people who already know what they are doing, with fees already covered. When the race is over, the proceeds come to them. They got the full benefit of a professionally run event without having to become an event company to get it. He built the same thing in his professional life through the professional employer model, where small businesses pool together so they can access group health plans, HR expertise, and compliance support that no single small employer could afford alone. The logic is identical. Specialized infrastructure is expensive to build and cheap to share. When you pool it, small organizations get access to a level of capability that would otherwise be completely out of reach. One line from that conversation has stayed with me: "We become a platform for these nonprofits to raise money on their own. We pay all the fees, and then when the race is over and our bills are paid, we take all that's left and share it with all the teams." What I appreciate about this framing is that it explains the mechanism. The value is not that Bob's group is generous, though they are. The value is structural. One entity absorbs the fixed cost and the expertise, and many organizations draw on it. That is leverage, and it is available far more often than nonprofits assume, if they stop defaulting to building alone. Some things should never be built in-house The same principle applies to the least glamorous part of running an organization. Human resources. Bob spent decades in the HR world, and his advice was direct. For most small nonprofits with paid staff, HR is not something to handle yourself. The regulations span fifty states and the federal government. The liability is real. And the power imbalance, when something goes wrong, is enormous. I know this one personally. Years ago I had an employee in another state and I had done everything correctly. New York State decided otherwise and started sending me fines that climbed toward thirty thousand dollars. I had to hire a lawyer. I spent many hours on paperwork. In the end I was right, I had done nothing wrong, and it still cost me thousands of dollars and a mountain of time. The lawyers on the other side had resources my small organization simply did not. Being in the right was not enough to make it painless. That is the kind of risk that lives quietly inside "we'll just handle it ourselves." HR compliance is specialized work, and specialized work is exactly the kind of thing that benefits from shared infrastructure. When it starts eating too much of your time, or when the liability is more than you can responsibly carry, that is the signal to bring in people who do it for a living. Community is the return most events forget to count There is one more piece of Bob's model worth naming, because it reframes what an event is even for. When you make an event a real community experience, the money is not the only return. The nonprofits at Bob's race network with each other. Startups learn from organizations that have been around for decades. Runners come back year after year because it feels like something, not just a transaction. The Minutemen fire a volley. A buffet from sixty restaurants. Families showing up to help. That community is an asset, and it compounds in a way a check never will. The fortune in fundraising is in the follow up, and an event that builds real relationships gives you something to follow up about. I had such a good time with you. Would you like to come tour our facility. Those conversations are where major gifts and lasting support actually come from, and they only exist if the event was built to create connection, not just to collect donations. Giving days and one-click donations have their place. But an experience people participate in creates relationships, and relationships are the quiet engine underneath every organization that fundraises well. What this makes possible When a leader sees this clearly, the pressure to build everything shifts. The question stops being how do we pull off our own event, our own HR, our own everything, and becomes what infrastructure already exists that we could plug into instead. That question opens doors. It means a small organization can access a professionally run event without becoming an event company. It means HR risk can be shared instead of shouldered alone. It means leadership attention goes to the mission, not to running four accidental businesses at once. The work does not disappear. It gets focused. And focus, applied to the few things only your organization can do, is what separates the nonprofits that thrive from the ones that stay stuck doing everything themselves. The bottom line This is not about doing less. It is about not building alone what someone has already built. Nonprofits can run excellent events. They can protect themselves from risk they cannot afford. They can grow without becoming experts at everything. Not by shouldering every function themselves, but by plugging into the infrastructure that is already there.

Send us Fan MailI think most of us who run dream of running forever. I sure do. And of course with no achy knees, no sore back, just keep moving. But how about staying on top of the game for decades, still running past retirement age, and still excelling? That would be Doug Bell of Greeley, Colo. Doug, a 2013 Colorado Running Hall of Fame inductee won the Denver Marathon three times in the 1980s and placed first among 75-year-olds at this year's Bolder Boulder 10K. How's that for a spread of years? For decades, when other runners saw that Doug was entered in a race, they knew that the competition in that age group was for second place, because Doug was already a cinch for the top spot. Along the way, he set masters' national records in the 5K with a 14:36 up to the 25K. Just to throw out a few other notable times over his career, he ran a 15:53 5K at age 56, a 17:11 at 60, and an 18:47 at 65. In the mile, he zoomed to a 6:02 clocking at age 72, and last year ran a 6:25 mile at 74 in 92o heat. The Bolder Boulder with it's nearly 50,000 runners does one-year age groups, and Doug has won his at least 15 times. These days, Doug has found new energy competing with the Boulder Road Runners racing teams, traveling all over the country to spar with other clubs. As you can hear in this episode, his spark for the sport has never waned and his roots in it run deep. He owned an independent running store in Greeley, Bell's Running, for 30 years, and has coached at Greeley Central H.S. Doug has some terrific stories to tell about competing against some of the greats, as well as how to maintain high performance for literally decades, so if you want to keep running strong for the rest of your life, have a listen to Doug.Bill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook and LinkedIn Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @coachstahlYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to our Substack for my archive of articles of coaching tips developed from my more than three decades of experience, wild and funny stories from my long coaching career, the wit and wisdom of David, and highlights of some of the best WASP episodes from the past that I feel are worthwhile giving another listen.Search either We Are Superman Podcast or @billstahl8Register for the American Heroes Run: https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=133138

Most people say they do hard things, but nobody stops to ask why those things feel hard in the first place. In this episode, I share what my brother taught my 10-year-old nephew about running his first 5K, and why that simple approach unlocks the real secret to pushing through your own Mile 19 moments. The fear we introduce to ourselves before we even begin is what kills most goals, not the difficulty of the goal itself. I break down what fear actually is at its root, why your mind believes every lie you tell it, and how one honest admission can change the trajectory of everything you pursue. Key Takeaways Breaking a big goal into micro steps is the first and most powerful move you can make when facing something difficult. Introducing fear and obstacles before you start is often what stops you, not the challenge itself. Your mind does not question what you tell it. Feed it limitations and it will protect those limitations. 99% of your limiting beliefs are lies you have repeated until they felt like truth. Playing the positive 'what if' game redirects your mind from self-sabotage to forward motion. Action Steps Identify one goal you quit on early and write down the exact fears or reasons you told yourself it was impossible. Then challenge each one by asking: is this actually true or is this a lie I chose to believe? The next time you face a hard stretch toward a goal, stop looking at the total distance left. Pick one small, visible target in front of you and focus only on reaching that. Spend five minutes today playing the positive what if game out loud or in writing. Ask yourself what if I could succeed at this, and let your mind start building toward that answer instead of away from it. Notable Quote 99% of your limiting beliefs are lies that you have made to be true in your mind. You've held them dear. You have trusted in your ability to thwart your own potential.

What happens to your identity the day you can no longer do the thing you built it on?   Dr. Andrew Fix reflects on a recent 5K to explore a question most people avoid. Are you measuring your worth against a version of yourself that no longer exists? He breaks down why running a race and comparing the result to an old personal record ignores everything that has changed along the way, from injuries and surgeries to the demands of raising a family. A little perspective changes the whole picture.   The conversation moves beyond running into something bigger. Why do so many people introduce themselves through a job title or a sport they used to play? Dr. Fix shares an analogy he loves, building your identity on a single role or activity is like standing on a football. It feels solid until the moment it isn't.   He also calls out a pattern he sees constantly in his practice. People say they used to play softball or throw the ball with their kids, but their shoulder or knee stops them now. Is that really the injury talking, or is it easier to hide behind an old identity than to do the work required to reclaim it?   This episode is a challenge to stop living through who you were and start paying attention to who you're becoming. What would change if you answered "What do you do?" with something other than your job?   Quotes "Are you still living in the past, holding on to the things that you used to do and the person that you used to be? Or are you focused on who you are today and the person that you're becoming?" (00:34 | Dr. Andrew Fix) "We should lead with who we are and what we're becoming now. And we should also not try to have our identity wrapped up necessarily in the things that we do." (04:07 | Dr. Andrew Fix) "If you try to build your life foundation on top of a football, like on a football, that is a very wobbly foundation to try and stand on." (04:27 | Dr. Andrew Fix) "If your identity is wrapped up in I am this thing that I do, I am a football player, then that's going to be a very difficult thing when that is stripped away from you, however that happens." (05:32 | Dr. Andrew Fix) "That's also one of these same things where you're holding on to an identity of something that you're not, in a way, potentially because you're afraid of the truth."

On this episode of We Don't Make The Rules, the crew kicks things off by congratulating Coach Beav on his latest accomplishment before previewing the 5K for $5K Compton Run Club event. Then it's time for another round of Quick Hits, where they make their World Cup Final predictions, react to the latest NFL player rankings—including Lamar Jackson's surprising drop, Jordan Love's placement, and Jalen Hurts being ranked below the league's average quarterback. They also break down their early NBA Summer League impressions (including standout performances from AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson), debate LeBron James' future, and discuss Victor Wembanyama signing a long-term extension while reportedly taking less than the maximum. In this week's Rule Breakers, the guys cover the wildest stories in sports, from a fireworks mishap that went viral to reports of Bam Adebayo punching Tyler Herro and whether it compares to past teammate altercations like Draymond Green vs. Jordan Poole. They also react to Courtney Williams going off on a fan over a losing parlay, Conor McGregor's loss to Max Holloway, Marina Mabrey having a shoe thrown at her by Betnijah Laney-Hamilton, the latest on Terry Rozier, and an unfortunate moment where an umpire took a painful shot during a game. As always, expect plenty of laughs, hot takes, and debates—because We Don't Make The Rules.

Content going out and content built to make someone buy are two completely different things. Two completely different strategies, two completely different skill sets and two completely different intentions. And most founders — and most agencies — only know how to do one of them. In this episode of Running With Wolves, Savannah breaks down a full client case study that proves exactly why. Her client had a 4 to 5K per month agency, beautiful consistent content and zero new clients to show for it. One week after implementing Savannah's strategy she made 60K in 24 hours — with no agency, less content and less money spent. Here's what this episode covers: • Why virality doesn't matter — one client had 2,000 views and made 200K, another had 200,000 views and couldn't make 2K • The three questions to ask your marketing team right now to find out if they actually know what they're doing • Why the selling is the last thing you should ever delegate — and most founders delegate it first • The old model vs the new model — and the single KPI shift that exposes every weak piece of marketing you're running Apply to work with Savannah HERE: http://bit.ly/applywlfpodcast or DM her on Instagram @itssavannahjordan ( / itssavannahjordan ) with your takeaway. content that sells, marketing strategy 2026, marketing agency mistake, client case study, organic marketing, female founder, sales strategy, 60K in 24 hours

Fresh off a record-breaking performance at the 2026 Western States 100, Jennifer Lichter joins the podcast to share the story behind one of the most impressive breakthroughs in ultrarunning. Jenn won Western States in 15:28:05, breaking Courtney Dauwalter’s course record in her very first 100-mile race. Just a few months earlier, she won Black Canyon 100K and set another course record in her debut at that distance. In this conversation, Jenn reflects on the race itself, the mindset it took to stay present over 100 miles, and how she handled the pressure of chasing history. She also opens up about her childhood in Colombia, being adopted and moving to the United States, and how those experiences shaped the resilience and gratitude that define both her life and her running. We also talk about training with coach John Fitzgerald, her nutrition strategy, racing after battling a stomach bug just days before Western States, and what comes next as she looks toward the future. Topics covered:  Winning the 2026 Western States 100 Breaking Courtney Dauwalter’s course record Running a course record in her 100-mile debut Winning Black Canyon 100K in her first 100K Growing up in Colombia and being adopted Gratitude, resilience, and how hardship shaped her Training with coach John Fitzgerald Racing while recovering from a stomach bug Nutrition strategy at Western States Managing pressure and expectations during a 100-mile race Life in Missoula and training with Nike ACG Looking ahead to CCC at UTMB Sponsors: Goodr Goodr sunglasses are no-slip, no-bounce, all polarized, and actually affordable, with tons of fun styles and colors for summer.

Send us Fan MailMelanie Cote spent years believing runners were a certain kind of person — thin, disciplined, elite — and she wasn't it. So when a coworker organized a 5K, she showed up to cheer instead of run, too embarrassed to try. A year later, she crossed that same start line. Today she's a half-marathoner who runs as @the.curvy.runner, and her story is for every mom who's ever thought "I'm not a runner."Carrie and Melanie get into starting couch-to-5K in your late 40s, why consistency beats performance, the gear struggles nobody warns curvy runners about, running through perimenopause, and letting go of the diet-culture rules we grew up with.

Send us Fan MailWhat if the hardest part of your fitness journey wasn't the training—but the reactions of the people around you?In the first episode of our new Training Truths series, Coach James sits down with Melanie to share her remarkable journey of losing more than 100 pounds and discovering a passion for running that transformed her life.Along the way, she expected challenges like early mornings, sore legs, and tough workouts. What she didn't expect was the criticism from people closest to her. From being told she's “too skinny” to hearing she's “addicted to running,” Melanie opens up about the emotional side of pursuing better health and learning to stay committed when not everyone understands your journey.Together, we discuss the difference between discipline and obsession, why personal growth can make others uncomfortable, and how to remain focused on becoming the healthiest version of yourself without letting outside opinions define your path.Whether you're training for your first 5K, preparing for a HYROX race, or simply trying to build healthier habits, this conversation will encourage you to keep moving forward, even when the people around you don't fully understand why.Training Truth #1: Not everyone will understand your commitment, but you don't need everyone's approval to pursue better health.

“You just have to have that confidence in anything you do. That was the biggest thing that had driven me… Having that extreme level of confidence and delusion. You want it to seem hard, but you don't want it to seem impossible.”My guest for today's episode is Marco Langon, the 21-year-old distance runner out of the state of New Jersey who just finished his career at Villanova and signed a professional contract with Diodora. He made his pro debut at the Pre Classic and is currently in Germany as he gets started on his European circuit tour.His resume is strong from his four years at Villanova. He ran a personal best of 3:32 in the 1500m, 7:34 in the 3K, and 13:05 in the 5K, all which put him in the top four in NCAA history. He was at the center of some of the most dramatic finishes of the past season: He dove at the finish line in his duel against Habtom Samuel at BU, and he anchored Villanova to the 4xmile title at Penn Relays after some hotly contested back to back days against Oregon and their anchor, Simeon Birnbaum.His story is pretty impactful. He grew up watching his mom, a lunch lady, navigate a divorce and make ends meet for him and his sister on a single income, and he was stocking shelves in a convenience store freezer while in high school, crying because he knew that that couldn't be his life. He's someone who has been committed to exploring how good he can be at this sport because it could lead to him providing for his family.He signed with Diadora specifically because they took a chance on him before anyone else did when he signed his NIL deal. His personality is not one that necessarily fits into some of the bigger brands marketing strategy and he's quick to admit that himself. So, in this chat, we get into all of that from the moments in that QuickCheck freezer that made the dream feel urgent, his full ride to Villanova, what he's taking from coach Marcus O'Sullivan and what they also butted heads on, the Penn Relays anchor that he describes as the most relieved he's ever felt rather than the happiest, the 1500m versus 5K debate that he's still processing, and what he's looking forward to in his first season as a pro.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavezGuest: Marco Langon | @marcolangonProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSBANDIT: For 2026, Bandit is providing support for any Unsponsored athletes competing at the USATF Outdoor Championships.

Hi guys! Today's episode is super duper long and I truly have stopped caring, there's so much corruption in this world and it deserves to be covered. What corruption are we going over this week? Glad you asked! This is a continuation on our deep-dive into WHY women were actually banned from clinical research in 1977. It is absolutely crucial we understand who is behind this as *ahem* women matter and it's also Disability Pride Month! Thank you all for taking the time to listen or at least check out the resources (scroll down for the databases) - if any sources are missing it's because Youtube and podcast sites usually have a 5K letter limit. I'm using those letters explaining this - but if you need to find something, write down the key words I used and type them into ToxicDocs. By the way, NO, this is not sponsored by ToxicDocs as that's not how research databases roll. I'm just a fan. I appreciate you all! Thank you again for listening.

Want to build a seven-figure brand the way Elina did? Get the free $100K/month playbook and a quick diagnostic that shows you exactly which step to focus on next: https://capitalism.com/100K Elina got laid off from her tech job, read 12 Months to $1 Million, and decided to bet on herself before she had any proof it would work. Eighteen months later she'd built Dood Woof, an all-natural detangler brand for doodle owners, into a seven-figure business by following our eight-step framework almost exactly.  In this conversation we break down how she went from a $10,000 launch to 100 sales a day, why the community she built became her most valuable asset, and how she survived the day she thought she'd have to shut everything down.

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Lauren and Mick, a married couple in their 30s with two kids, $93K of debt, and a dream of moving into a bigger home. They earn around $150K a year combined, but with 89% of their take-home pay already going to fixed costs, just $5K in savings, and years of impulsive spending, their money is stretched far beyond what their lifestyle can support. Both Lauren and Mick have ADHD, which they say makes it harder to manage bills, avoid dopamine spending, and follow through on financial systems. Ramit acknowledges those challenges while encouraging them to explore a deeper issue: ADHD can make money management more difficult, but finding ways to navigate those challenges is still an important part of making the financial decisions their family depends on. In this episode we uncover: • Why Lauren and Mick earn $150K but still only have $5K in savings • How $93.5K of debt is keeping them trapped • Why their 89% fixed costs make a bigger house impossible right now • How ADHD affects their impulse spending, overdue bills, and financial systems • How consolidating $35K of credit-card debt did not solve the behavior behind it • Why they have avoided fully combining their finances after seven years of marriage • How Mick losing his job for a year changed their relationship with money • How both of their childhoods shaped their current spending habits • Why wanting a third child and bigger home is creating pressure they cannot afford • Why small cuts will not fix a structural financial problem • Why Ramit says their household needs a clearer path to $200K in income • What it takes to turn a fantasy of a better life into a real financial plan • How Lauren and Mick responded after the conversation Chapters: (00:00:00) They admit their biggest money mistake (00:01:18) Meet Lauren & Mick (00:02:04) Their shocking financial numbers (00:05:05) How ADHD affects their spending (00:07:08) LEGOLAND, LEGO, and impulse purchases (00:12:22) How job loss changed everything (00:17:38) Breaking down their finances (00:21:22) "Do you respect money?"

I've been getting the same DM on repeat: "how do I actually start booking $8-10K weddings instead of staying stuck in the $3-5K range?". So today's episode is the answer.Here's the truth nobody wants to hear: you're not underpriced because the market won't pay more. You're underpriced because your portfolio doesn't look like it belongs at that price point yet. And fixing that has almost nothing to do with buying more gear.--

In this episode, I sit down with Todd Nepola, President and Founder of Current Capital Group. As a fourth-generation real estate entrepreneur, Todd shares how his family's legacy shaped his career, the strategies he's used to build a successful commercial real estate portfolio across Florida, and what it takes to lead and scale a business in today's market. If you're interested in real estate, investing, or entrepreneurship, you won't want to miss this conversation.----⏱️ TIMESTAMPS / CHAPTERS

What does it really take to become a stronger, healthier, and more efficient runner? On this episode of the Marni On The Move podcast, I sync up with Donovan Stewart, Life Time Personal Training Lead and running coach in DUMBO, for a conversation that blends personal storytelling with performance science. Donovan shares his journey into the fitness and running industry, the challenges he’s overcome, and how injury shaped his perspective on training, resilience, and longevity. We also discuss his decision to prioritize his eye health and how that experience influenced both his life and his running. The conversation then shifts to performance testing as Donovan walks through my own VO₂ max results, explaining what the numbers actually mean and how runners can use metabolic testing to train smarter—not just harder. We dive into heart rate training, recovery, running efficiency, and how to leverage performance data to maximize endurance and long-term progress. Whether you’re training for your first 5K, chasing a marathon PR, or simply looking to understand your body better, this episode is packed with practical takeaways you can apply to your own training. In This Episode Donovan Stewart’s journey into fitness and running Overcoming challenges and the mindset built through injury Prioritizing eye health and its impact on running Understanding VO₂ max and why it matters Breaking down my VO₂ max test results Heart rate zones and training with purpose Recovery strategies for improved performance Fine-tuning running technique and efficiency using performance data CONNECT Life Time on Instagram and Donovan Stewart on Instagram Marni On The Move Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, or YouTube` Marni Salup on Instagram and Playlist on Spotify SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER Sign up for our monthly newsletter, Do What Moves You, for Marni on the Move updates, exclusive offers, invites to events, and exciting news!

Jane Hedengren doesn't do freshman years quietly. Coming off a breakout debut season at BYU, the Nike-sponsored phenom joins Dominic ahead of the Prefontaine Classic to reflect on a year that redefined her expectations of herself.Hedengren opens up about the whirlwind of transitioning from decorated high schooler to collegiate standout, describing her freshman year as less about the records and wins and more about the growth, the team bonds, and the hard-earned lessons that came with it.She talks through her simplified shoe rotation, what it's really like working alongside Nike's product teams, and how the "less is more" training philosophy from her Nike Elite days still affect how she approaches her buildup. She also opens up about periodizing a season that won't peak until November, the value of resting and reconnecting with family this summer, and how she's staying grounded as her siblings chase their own running success.The conversation turns reflective as Jane considers her long-term legacy in the sport, weighing the pull between cross country's singular, winner-take-all drama and the technical precision of track. Asked to choose between breaking four minutes in the mile or fourteen minutes in the 5K as the sport's next historic barrier, she doesn't hesitate to share her pick, while acknowledging both feel closer than ever. Through it all, Jane's answers land with a maturity beyond her years, a steady reminder that she's chasing greatness one present moment at a time.Tap into the Jane Hedengren Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

Every year, the Western States 100 captures the attention of the ultrarunning world. It's a race filled with incredible performances, heartbreaking setbacks, unforgettable comebacks, and stories of grit that go far beyond who crosses the finish line first.But you don't have to run 100 miles (or even want to!) to learn from it.In this episode, Kevin shares some of the biggest stories from this year's race, including course records, first-time champions, and legendary runners who didn't finish. Together, we explore what these moments reveal about running, resilience, and ourselves. Whether you're training for your first 5K, chasing a marathon PR, or simply trying to stay consistent, the lessons are surprisingly universal.At the end of the day, racing isn't just about the clock. It's about choosing curiosity over certainty, courage over perfection, and discovering who you become when things don't go according to plan. This episode is an invitation to redefine success, embrace the unpredictable nature of running, and remember why you started in the first place.02:01 What Is Western States04:06 Weather and Course Challenges05:24 Course Records Shock08:48 DNFs and Big Lessons11:54 Jim Walmsley DNF17:24 Kilian Jornet Curiosity22:11 Hans Troyer Icarus26:37 Debrief and Hernia Story27:49 Racing With Hernia30:02 Curiosity Over Certainty30:54 Winner Comeback Story32:31 Adam Peterman Rebuild36:44 Molly Seidel Grit39:38 Why Finish Matters43:42 Long Haul Lessons45:44 Bronco Billy Redefines50:28 John Kelly PerspectiveGain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

Special Guest: Robin J. Emdon Welcome to Podcast Profits Unleashed, the podcast that helps coaches, consultants, and experts grow their business through the power of podcasting—both as a guest and a host. I'm your host, Karen Roberts, and in this episode we're tackling one of the biggest reasons entrepreneurs never reach their full potential—not because they lack talent, but because they never consistently finish what they start. Joining me is Robin J. Emdon, accountability coach, author, and creator of Get Resultsology. Robin shares why procrastination isn't a time-management problem—it's an emotional one—and explains how understanding what's happening in your brain can help you finally stop delaying the work that matters most.

Your bank account just sent you a distress signal. Not because you don't have a good offer. Not because people don't like you. It's because you're doing everything except the one thing that brings money in the door: selling. In this episode of The Expert Edge, I break down 3 fast-action strategies to create real revenue in 48 hours-without burnout, without icky sales tactics, without waiting for the universe to align. Here's the brutal truth: the gap between "I have a great program" and "I made $5K this week" isn't about better marketing or a prettier sales page. It's about shifting into sales mode. And it doesn't take 90 days. It works this week. I've used these strategies to generate cash quickly throughout my 17+ years building my business. They're not long-term scaling tactics. They're short-term power moves that remind you that you're a salesperson first and a perfectionist second. What you'll learn: → Get into sales mode - Why "rearranging business cards" isn't selling (and how to actually shift into sales energy) → Pick the low-hanging fruit - Your Stripe dashboard is a goldmine of past clients ready to buy again (and why internal is faster than external) → Take off the reins - Why scrappy, messy, real beats polished and perfect when you need cash fast → The distinctions between "thinking" you're selling and actually being in sales mode → Why your to-do list is probably full of distractions that aren't making you money → How to reconnect with past clients without feeling pushy or salesy → The power of the messy Zoom session, the DM convo, the test-it-now offer → Why perfectionism is the enemy of cash flow → How to ride your business "bareback" - real, messy, and ready to serve Real insights from the episode:   The difference between activity and sales (most coaches do lots of one, none of the other) Why your past clients are your fastest path to revenue The psychology of asking for the sale vs hoping for the sale How to shift from "building" mode to "selling" mode in 24 hours Why the scrappy approach often converts better than the polished funnel The client who's been waiting for you to make another offer (and you don't even know it) How to use your existing relationships to generate immediate cash Why waiting for your "perfect funnel" is costing you thousands The real reason most experts aren't making money (it's not the offer)   If you're running an established expert business doing $300K+ (or aiming there), Platinum is our highest-level mastermind.

Duluth got two shows last week, and as promised, now it is your turn! We start with a weekend recap from Duluth. Kara breaks down the Goucher family 5K results where Colt and Adam performed annoyingly well. Des shares what it was like to be an adopted family member for the weekend, and Kara takes us through some of her broadcast fun - you betcha! They also give love to Jenny Simpson who is recovering from a scary heart event last week. By all accounts, she is now on the mend, and we are sending all of our prayers and healing vibes her way.  Plus of course, they run through the elite results from the half and full, where live-show guest Dakotah Popehn won the marathon. Congrats Dakotah! Then, we turn the page to share the full audio from live show #2 in Duluth where you get more great content and even better questions from the crowd. In particular, thank you to Kara's nephews for opening the Q&A. They were the cutest, and the crowd was great as usual. Two sold out shows in Duluth is simply amazing. What a weekend! Thank you to all who helped make it happen and especially Grandma's race director Zach Schneider!
