Vigor Life Podcast · EP115: Raise Your Coaching Game and High Performance Secrets from the Best w/ Alan Stein Jr. When at the airport I always make a pitstop at the bookstore. While traveling to a speaking engagement, a book title entered my line of vision: "Raise Your Game.” As I read the cover, chapter topics and testimonials I knew I had to get it. Especially given it was from the world of basketball. From first crack, I couldn't put it down. I finished it in two days and knew I needed to get the author, Alan Stein Jr on the podcast to talk about the principles. I later realized both Alan and I were featured in Anthony Renna’s book, “Be Like The Best”, which led me to connecting with Alan… and here we are. Alan is a world-renowned coach, speaker and author. He spent 15+ years working the highest performing basketball players on the planet and now teaches audiences how to utilize the same strategies in business that elite athletes use to perform at a world-class level. Alan specializes in improving individual and organizational leadership, performance and accountability. He inspires and empowers everyone he works with to take immediate action and improve mindset, habits and productivity. In this podcast we talk about principles for success, coaching, and leadership and the values and behaviors that support it to help you raise your game. Let's go. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN The two foundational principles that success is built on and that you must adhere to if you’re going to win long-term.What Alan learned from Kobe Bryant about the basics, that made him the best in the world at his craft.Why knowing yourself first is crucial to creating a change in your life and business, as well as impacting others.The basics of what you’re trying to improve—whether it be your craft, your business, your marriage—and how to break them down into skill work.How Alan addresses “shiny object syndrome” and lack of attention by using praise, setting expectations and defining a role.What not to do to ensure that you're not being disrespectful to the process, your craft, and the game. Whatever your game may be.The importance of environment when it comes to buying into the basics and why you should seek out environments that trigger positive behaviors.How to get rid of distractions so you can perform at the highest level. The most disciplined people have the least amount of distractions.Create systems and processes to make sticking to habits easier. We share examples.How Kevin Durant transformed himself after hating strength training but still showed up weekly to put in work.People take what you do over what you say. Why you should model the behavior of your role models, and how this will help you become a high character person.Alan's exercise to discover your values and the process steps to become that person.What to do when someone has not bought into the team, and the vision.The self-check and the responsibility you must take as a coach to help your clients and people around you become better. Nix blaming, making excuses, and complaining.The keys to sustaining a standard of excellence like Dematha High School and how you can apply it to yourself and your business.Why the role you and each person on your team plays must be respected, valued and appreciated. Everyone is integral to the final picture.Why communication is like a basketball pass – the person making the pass has to deliver it in a way that the person can catch it. And much more.

Janice and Andy Ockershausen,, in studio Our Town DC Podcast Andy Ockershausen: This is Andy Ockershausen, and this is Our Town. It's hard to believe that Season 2 is complete. We've had some great guests over the last 20 weeks. Our Town started with a bang at a launch party at Tony and Joe's on May 23rd. Our guests included Jim Vance. We were in the unique position of interviewing Jim before the news broke of his terminal cancer. We shared a glorious hour with Jim Vance, with lots of laughs and a new awareness of his impact on Our Town. We went to his memorial service at the National Cathedral with thousands of others who loved Jim. There will never be another Jim Vance. During Season 2, we spoke to so many friends, including members of Congress, sports heroes, university presidents, newspaper and magazine publishers, writers, famous attorneys, some unfamous attorneys also, restaurateurs, and community organizers. If you name it, we didn't miss many. We stayed live and lively as much as we could. Some of the names included Chris Plante from WMAL, Tommy McFly from other stations, Connie Morella, a former Congresswoman and a very dear friend of WMAL over the year, Kathleen Matthews, an ex-WMAL and WMAL-TV employee who worked in our newsroom as the erstwhile Kathy Cunningham. How about that? Joe diGenova, United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, Pat Collins, a great reporter who's still very active with Channel 4, a very, very dear friend. Mark Ein, the man that put tennis into a proper perspective who had the only championship team in the last like 30 years. His team won the tennis championship five or six years in a row. Mark is a great citizen and a great part of our community. The tennis team has been great. James Brown, old JB, a local guy, Dematha High School. James Brown is an icon in our business and a great friend. Thank you for having him in Our Town regularly. Rick "Doc" Walker, Janice referred to him ... I always thought his middle name was Doc. She has called him Rick "Doc" Walker for years, but he's got that nickname, "Doctor." But Rick is a very, very important part of our lives because of what he's meant to WMAL over the years. Now he's over on the broadcast team for the great Washington Redskins team. Then we've had the pleasure of having the number one announcer, a news guy for Fox, Ed Henry, who was so huge during the election with his reporting. Ed has become a great friend of WMAL. Then last but not least of the big names, I think a big name, the owner of the Washington Post who sold it. Donald Graham sold the Post to Bezos, and Donald started his second life as an entrepreneur and businessman. He's done so well, and he loves Our Town. He thought that by doing it, of selling to Bezos, it would put a new life into the Post. And I'm sure it did. They're doing so well. We've already begun recording for Season 3, and we've got some interesting guests lined up, including Tony Zeiss, president of the new Museum of the Bible, a multi-media, two block building of over 420,000 square feet of exhibit space, costing over $500 million. It's brand new to Our Town. It's opening in mid-November. We also have the opening of the Wharf. The Wharf opened here in September. In a $2 billion effort to redo the Washington downtown, and the Washington Wharf is going to be in our subject. And we're going to talk about it.

When Enhanced Training Champions (ETC) CEO Tobe Stephens, a North Carolina native, first started his venture 15 years ago in the DMV area, the struggle was REAL. Starting your own business in of itself is hard work, but starting one in unchartered, unfamiliar territory, in a field so reliant upon contacts and personal connections, can prove extremely difficult. However, Tobe had a vision and determination to uncover athletes hidden potential and ENHANCED those DIAMONDS in the ROUGH by advancing their athletic abilities to the next level. Using his extensive background in fitness and nutrition, Tobe not only strengthens his clients athletic ability, he sets them on a path to developing and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Now with a clientele that includes the likes of Rodney Mcleod, Victor Oladipo, former Duke star Quinn Cook, rising college phenom DJ Harvey, and DeMatha High School to name a few, ETC has established themselves as an ELITE training company. Tune in as Tobe shares some of his secret to success with us and how he believes true CHAMPIONS are made.
