As athletes, we all know what pre-race anxiety feels like. The difference between elite athletes and those still finding their stride isn't that they don't experience nervousness—they feel it just as much as we do. But they've learned to frame it differently. Coach Steve Magness says it best: "Elite athletes don't feel less anxiety before competition. They feel the same tight chest, sweaty palms, racing heart, and butterflies that the rest of us do. The difference? They've trained themselves to interpret those sensations differently." This shift—from seeing nervousness as a threat to seeing it as a challenge—is where the magic happens. Research shows that high performers don't experience less stress—they just frame it better. Rather than trying to eliminate that anxious feeling, they embrace it, knowing it's a sign that they're ready to rise. Nerves aren't the enemy. In fact, they're your body's way of saying, “You care. Something meaningful is about to happen.” So, instead of running from it, lean into it. Understand that those nerves are helping you prepare, keeping you sharp, and sharpening your focus. They're not a sign of weakness—they're a sign of strength. We can often think that nervousness means something is wrong or that we're not prepared enough. But the reality is, it means you do care. It means your mind and body are ready for the challenge ahead. The goal isn't to eliminate the nerves, it's to work with them. See them as fuel, not fear. Feel them, acknowledge them, and let them guide you forward. When you feel those pre-race jitters, remind yourself: You're about to do something meaningful. Action item: Next time those race-day nerves hit, don't push them away. Instead, breathe into them. Let them be the signal that you're ready for the challenge. Harness that energy to fuel your focus, and remember, those butterflies are pushing you toward greatness. Ready to learn how to channel that energy?  Clear the Mechanism and Rise Above Nervousness before a race can feel overwhelming. But how do you take that energy and channel it into focus instead of letting it distract you? The answer lies in a simple but powerful mindset technique from For the Love of the Game, where Kevin Costner's character, a seasoned pitcher, uses the phrase “Clear the mechanism.” This technique isn't just for baseball—it's something every triathlete can use. When the nerves start to flood your mind, and you feel like you're about to be overwhelmed by the noise, distractions, and pressure, the key is to clear the mechanism. When you clear the mechanism, you're intentionally blocking out everything that isn't directly related to the task at hand. It's like hitting the reset button, shifting your focus from the fear and doubt to the one thing you can control: your next move. Whether it's your swim stroke, your pedal cadence, or your run stride, you zoom in on that one thing and let everything else fade away. Coach Steve Magness reminds us that nerves aren't the enemy—they're a sign that you care, that your body is getting ready. But we can use those nerves to fuel us, not flood us. And just like the pitcher who needs to block out the crowd, the score, and the noise, as a triathlete, you can clear out the mental clutter and focus on what's in front of you. Here's how to apply it: When the nerves hit, take a deep breath, and clear the mechanism. Shut down the distractions, the what-ifs, and the self-doubt. Focus on your next step—the one thing you can control right now. Maybe it's your breath, your form, or the rhythm of your movement. Acknowledge the nerves, then let them guide you forward, not pull you under. By clearing your mental space, you give yourself permission to focus on the task, to be fully present, and to perform at your best. It's not about eliminating the nerves; it's about making them work for you instead of against you.     Action item: Before your next race or workout, practice clearing the mechanism. When you feel overwhelmed, mentally shut out everything except for the next task at hand. Clear the mechanism, focus on your breath, and take control of the moment. You've trained for this. Let the nerves fuel your focus and guide you to greatness.   TriDot Workout of the Week: Strength Recovery Week Training - Strength Strength training is a crucial yet often overlooked component of triathlon preparation. Exercises like reverse lunges, single-leg deadlifts, and quadruped band kickbacks help build unilateral strength and stability, which are essential for efficient running and injury prevention. Core-focused movements such as plank reaches, V-ups, and half-kneeling rotations enhance balance, posture, and power transfer across all three disciplines. Functional exercises like burpees and cross-pull lawnmowers improve overall athleticism, coordination, and cardiovascular resilience. Together, these movements not only boost muscular endurance and joint integrity but also help triathletes maintain form under fatigue, reduce injury risk, and ultimately perform more consistently across swim, bike, and run segments.   Rotate 1-3x through the following exercises doing 10-20 repetitions or 30 to 60 sec efforts of each.   Reverse Lunge Single Leg Deadlifts Half-Kneeling Rotation Plank Reaches Cross Pulls Lawnmower Burpees V Ups One leg Quadruped Band Kickbacks     Fun Segment: Trail Fail or Win!   It's time for Trail Fail or Trail Win! — the game where we throw out some wild off-road triathlon scenarios, and Rich and I decide: was this a total disaster… or a sneaky success in disguise? Some of these could be race-ending nightmares—or just epic stories waiting to happen. Let's find out!   Scenario 1: The Wild Animal Detour Mid-race, a deer darts across the trail and you crash while trying to avoid it. You roll into the bushes, get back on your feet, and still finish 3rd in your age group—leaves and twigs in your helmet included.   Scenario 2: The Wrong-Turn Bonus Miles You miss a poorly marked turn on the trail run, add nearly 1.5 miles to your race, and come in well over your expected time. But… you didn't quit and still finished smiling.     Scenario 3: The Creek Shoe Sacrifice You nail the bike leg and enter the run feeling great… until you sink into a muddy creek crossing and one of your shoes stays behind. You finish the run with one barefoot foot.     Scenario 4: Transition Tent Tantrum Your gear bag somehow ends up in someone else's spot. You panic, yell a few expletives, throw your hands up—and then remember your gear is on the other side of the rack. You recover… barely.     Scenario 5: The Mid-Race Snack Catastrophe You reach for your trail mix on the bike—your new homemade “clean fuel”—and spill it all over your top tube. The rest of the ride, you're being followed by bees. You still PR the course! So whether you're dodging wildlife, losing shoes in creeks, or baiting bees with your snacks, remember—off-road triathlon isn't just a race. It's an adventure. Keep sending us your crazy scenarios, or better yet—live them. And we'll see you next time on Trail Fail or Win!   Closing:   Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed and enjoy the endurance journey!

In this illuminating episode, Morgan shines a light on the often-overlooked power of sun magick. While the moon tends to take center stage in modern witchcraft, Morgan invites listeners to reconnect with the sun as a potent force of divine masculine energy, success, vitality, and transformation.  She explores the history of solar worship and reflects on how societal shifts may have pulled witches away from solar reverence. Through personal stories and actionable tips, Morgan offers ways to work with sun energy: whether it's casting midday success spells, working with solar deities, or simply embracing the warmth of the sun as a spiritual resource. If you've been moon-obsessed but solar-curious, this episode will inspire you to reimagine your relationship with the sun and find balance in both celestial energies.  For Patreon members, this week's bonus content includes ways to bring more sun magick into your daily practice.  If you enjoy Busy, Gritty, Inked, & Witchy, please like and subscribe.

In this joyful and spontaneous episode, Morgan shares a personal story that turned a disappointing weekend into a vibrant magickal lesson. What started as canceled plans to see a favorite comedian transformed into a weekend of laughter, intuition, and surprise wins at the casino—all because she followed what felt good.  Morgan dives into why fun is her second most important magickal tool (after intention) and how moments of joy, laughter, and pleasure are not only healing but also energetically powerful. She explores how these emotional states activate key energy centers in the body, raise your vibration, and bring more potency to your spellwork and manifestations.  This episode is a celebration of following your inner spark, letting your intuition lead, and remembering that serious magick doesn't always have to be so serious. Morgan invites you to reconnect with the playful witch within and see what opens up when you let yourself laugh, giggle, and enjoy the process.  For Patreon members, this week's bonus content is a personal list from Morgan: Five Ways to Add More Joy to Your Life, including practices and rituals she uses herself to keep her magick light, fun, and flowing.  If you enjoy Busy, Gritty, Inked, & Witchy, please like and subscribe.

In this episode, Morgan dives into easy meditation practices for busy or neurodivergent witches. After receiving a flood of interest from a recent social media post about her simple nine-minute daily meditation, she decided to break down her approach and offer support for those who struggle to “quiet the mind.”  Morgan busts the myth that meditation requires a completely blank mind or rigid stillness. She shares realistic and accessible ways to meditate—including movement-friendly techniques and her whimsical “hookah smoke” trick for releasing intrusive thoughts. You'll also learn about three core types of meditation (mindfulness, concentration, and guided), how to find what works best for you, and the importance of customizing your practice to fit your needs.  She walks listeners through tips on creating a supportive meditation environment, using tools like soundscapes and guided journeys (with special praise for The Honest Guys on YouTube), and encourages consistency over perfection.  Whether you're a beginner or looking to deepen your practice, this episode offers supportive guidance and humorous insights grounded in real life.  For Patreon members, this week's bonus content includes a detailed look at Morgan's personal daily meditation routine—available to all tiers starting at $5/month.  If you enjoy Busy, Gritty, Inked, & Witchy, please like and subscribe.

Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I'm joined by Mark Livesay, and in this episode we dig into a recent land transfer bill that almost stripped thousands of acres of public land from hunters like you and me. We're talking politics, truth, and the real power of grassroots action. Mark and I break down what almost happened, how the bill got shut down, and what this fight says about the future of public lands in America. No fluff, no filters—just facts, fire, and why hunters can't afford to sit this one out. ____________________________________________________________________ WE RECOMMEND GEAR THAT FLATOUT WORKS.

Prison break update, Are You Gonna Eat That? We are a great golf state.

Welcome to the Gritty Podcast. I'm joined by Mark Livesay, and in this episode, we're talking bear hunting—what works, what fails, and what it's like to have a giant bear charge you after calling it in solo. Mark shares the full story of his first Montana bear—called with a mouth call, shot at under 50 yards, and not down after the first hit. We get into the gear, the tactics, and the moments that nearly went sideways.

In this off-the-cuff and heart-led episode, Morgan invites you into a real-time reflection on burnout, pressure, and the magick of a pattern interrupt. With no notes and no planned topic, she hits record to share a transformative moment sparked by somatic movement, meditation, and a spontaneous trip to the antique store. What unfolded was a powerful realization: pushing harder isn't always the answer. Morgan explores the pressure she's been putting on herself as a business owner, mother, and witch—and how doing something fun and unexpected completely unblocked her creativity and brought her back into flow.  She shares the importance of honoring divine feminine energy, the signs of misalignment, and the freedom that comes from giving yourself permission to pause and pivot. For Patreon members, this week's bonus content is a continuation of this moment of truth—an unscripted, unfiltered follow-up recording where Morgan shares whatever flows through once the mic is back on.

In this episode, Morgan climbs on her soapbox with fiery passion to talk about a topic she's felt strongly about for nearly 20 years: why you should stop paying people to cast spells for you. Sparked by a recent impersonation scam using her name and photos to sell $210 spells, Morgan gets real about the dangers, the manipulation, and the loss of personal power that can come from outsourcing your magick. She shares an unforgettable story from her early days owning a metaphysical shop, where she helped a woman reclaim her hoodoo roots and cast a successful spell for herself—after months of being scammed by others.  From there, Morgan dives into five powerful reasons why no one can cast a spell better than you can. She covers everything from the predatory nature of love and twin flame spells to the risk of handing your energy and money over to strangers with unknown intentions. This episode is tough love wrapped in empowerment. Morgan isn't here to shame—but she is here to remind you that YOU are the magick.

In this empowering episode, Morgan dives deep into the often-overlooked Queen archetype—the missing link between Mother and Crone in the traditional triple goddess model. She shares her personal connection to this phase, how it has shown up in her spiritual journey, and why it deserves to be embraced as its own sacred stage of life.  Morgan explains how the Queen archetype blends sovereignty, confidence, compassion, and boundaries into one powerful identity. She also walks listeners through how Queen energy differs from Maiden curiosity, Mother nurturing, and Crone wisdom, and why so many women find themselves floating in that in-between space, unsure where they belong.   If you've ever felt like you're not quite a mother anymore but definitely not ready to be called a crone, this episode is for you.  For Patreon members, this week's bonus content includes Morgan's favorite magickal helpers for embodying Queen energy, such as gemstones, oils, and tools to support you as you step into your power.

In this episode, Morgan shares a deeply personal update on her psychic development journey—nearly one year to the day since she first opened up about it in episode 120. What started as a desire to reconnect with her gifts turned into what she now calls an “accidental psychic experiment.” Through small, intentional shifts in her mindset and daily practices, Morgan found herself reconnecting to her intuitive abilities in powerful, unexpected ways. She walks listeners through the incremental changes she made—like journaling, daily tarot pulls, and saying “fuck it, let's do it”—that ultimately led to breakthroughs in hearing, seeing, and feeling psychic messages again. Morgan gets honest about the fears that held her back, how tarot became the doorway for her reawakening, and the freedom she feels now that she's fully honoring her intuitive self. This one is emotional, empowering, and packed with wisdom for anyone on a similar path of reawakening. For Patreon members, this week's bonus content includes Morgan's exact morning routine during her psychic experiment, including step-by-step practices that helped her open up and reconnect with her gifts.
