To explore this complicated season, I'm joined by Gretchen Rubin, bestselling author and leading voice on habits, happiness, and human nature. Our conversation is a thoughtful look at how to approach the new year with intention, from embracing clean slates to making space for what matters most.

Why does eliminating alcohol suddenly make you crave sugar like Cookie Monster, struggle with sleep (though everyone swears you'll snooze like a baby), or find yourself existentially bored? These aren't signs that Dry January "isn't working." They're signs that your nervous system, hormones, and dopamine pathways are recalibrating. I talk a lot about the incredible benefits of going alcohol-free: the confidence, the creativity, the clarity, and the INSANE biological changes. But some of these benefits take time. If this is your first Dry January or you've had a very "wet" December, your body might take awhile to heal and rebalance itself.

Looking for daily inspiration? Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning. Every year, millions of attraction visitors lose hours in line instead of making memories. Since its inception, accesso's virtual queuing has saved more than 4.5 billion minutes of wait time, freeing guests to pack their day with more rides, eats, and excitement. The result? Happier guests who spend more and a better bottom line for you. Ready to turn waits into wins? Visit accesso.com/ROIClinic. The queues are virtual. The results are real. Matt and Josh kick off their ninth annual “Resolutionary” episode with a familiar challenge in the attractions industry: it is easy to set big intentions for the year ahead, but it is harder to stay accountable and actually follow through. They address that by reviewing last year's goals with honest grading, then setting fresh, practical priorities for 2026, anchored in community, intention, and continuous improvement. In this episode, Matt and Josh talk about their annual “Resolutionary” tradition, reflecting on 2025 and setting personal, professional, and industry-wide focus areas for 2026. Resolutionary as accountability, not perfection “While it's sort of a loose resolutionary process, there is some accountability in there.” Matt frames the episode as a look back and a look forward, without pretending these are rigid, all-or-nothing resolutions. Josh reinforces the point that saying it out loud matters because it creates real follow-through. “The fact that it is recorded, broadcast, and immortalized into the podcast ether creates that accountability on us.” The result is a tradition built on reflection, transparency, and a push to be more intentional year over year. Reviewing 2025 with candor “I would give myself a D on that if I was going to give myself a letter grade.” Instead of glossing over what did not happen, Matt shares where he fell short, including his goal to write more, and explains how his creative energy flowed into other outlets. He also celebrates wins like bringing back mastermind programs and expanding leadership-focused initiatives, including what grew out of their IAAPA experiences. Josh shares major momentum in his consulting model, emphasizing sustained client engagement and outcomes over one-off workshops. He also checks off key milestones like launching his online course, Service Recovery Hero, and exhibiting at IAAPA Expo. Advocate and collaborate, and getting more voices on stage “It's two words: advocate and collaborate.” Matt's 2026 theme centers on helping more people get connected, get involved, and grow their confidence, especially through speaking opportunities. He makes it explicit: “My goal in 2026 is to get more and new people speaking at IAAPA so that we can hear those new voices and new perspectives.” Josh expands on the momentum that collaboration creates, comparing it to a flywheel that is hard to start but easier to sustain once it is moving. “The momentum builds upon itself.” Together, they position community-building as both a leadership responsibility and a practical growth strategy for the industry. Process before scale, and building the next book “I've created a buffer step between growth and scale, and that is process.” Josh shares that growth has revealed a tipping point: without stronger internal systems, expansion could create friction instead of results. By gathering feedback from clients using his favorite experiential questions, he identifies what is working and what could improve, then commits to tightening operations to make outcomes more consistent. He also sets a creative goal connected to his book journey, developing the framework for his next book. Matt validates the importance of structure before execution, emphasizing that a strong framework makes the writing process possible. Identity, habits, and a personal resolution “As of January 2026, I am a world-renowned pianist.” Josh takes a left turn into identity-based habit building, inspired by prior conversations and the idea that identity drives behavior. He talks through making the piano easy to access so practice becomes natural, not a chore. Matt, as a musician, backs that up with a simple truth: if setup is hard, it will not happen. They also connect learning to teaching and family, with Josh noting the value of teaching to deepen mastery. Industry resolutions: basics, breaking silos, recovery tools, and people first “Do the basics really well.” Josh offers three industry-focused resolutions: nail fundamentals before chasing wow moments, remember that guest experience is everyone's job, and proactively define a service recovery toolbox so teams do not default to escalation. Matt adds a human-centered reminder that ties everything together: “Don't forget about your people.” He argues that with all the technology and innovation available, it is still employees who make the business run, now and forever. If anybody has any resolutions or things that they're focusing on, we want to hear them! Share your goals on social media and tag them so we can reshare and help keep the accountability alive.

This is a short, personal episode about a few things I'm intentionally doing more of in 2025—not because they sound impressive or productive, but because they've genuinely made my life calmer, healthier, and more grounded. Rather than focusing on goals or systems, I talk through a handful of changes that have come from experience, reflection, and paying attention to what actually drains me versus what gives something back. I share why I'm continuing to make my circle smaller without becoming closed off or cynical, why I'm done feeling uncomfortable asking for support, how I'm trying to be more mindful of how my excitement lands with different people, and why I'm working on not giving away my power just because I'm comfortable with conflict or ambiguity. This episode isn't about cutting people off or becoming harder. It's about becoming more honest with myself—and more intentional with my time, energy, and relationships. My hope is that as you listen, you reflect on where you might need to make similar adjustments in your own life. What You'll Learn in This Episode •How I'm continuing to make my circle smaller without becoming closed off — and the criteria I use to decide which relationships are worth maintaining •What helped me stop feeling guilty about asking for support (especially for big projects like my book) and how to ask in a way that doesn't feel weird or needy •How I'm getting better at reading how my excitement lands with different people so I don't come on too strong when I don't mean to •How I'm working on not giving away power through over-accommodation — giving benefit of the doubt, deferring too much, and being “too nice” longer than someone's earned ⸻ Follow Us: Website: ArtofCoaching.com Instagram: @coach_brettb X: @coach_brettb

Case Lawrence is the founder of CircusTrix. After helping shape the trampoline park category through early growth and major consolidation, he helped unify CircusTrix, Sky Zone, and Rockin' Jump under the Sky Zone brand, navigating adversity including COVID and the long work of integration. He later stepped away from day-to-day leadership and brought his hard-won lessons into the classroom, teaching entrepreneurship at the BYU Marriott School of Business, which also helped him translate years of stories into principles for new experience builders. Case's new book, Off the Ground, chronicles his journey in entrepreneurship and the trampoline park industry. In this interview, Case talks about the power of relationships, joy-based entrepreneurship, and influencer-based experiences The power of relationships “One of the key things I learned is the power of relationships.” Case frames Sky Zone's evolution as proof that big outcomes are rarely just the result of strategy on paper. He points to the trust between Jeff and Rick Platt, along with himself, as the glue that held a shared vision together through adversity, saying the three leaders “became partners in every true sense of the word” and stayed unified when outside forces could have splintered the effort. He also pulls the lens closer to the human side of deals, noting that founders bring emotion, identity, and fear into negotiations. “To really get a complicated deal done, especially these big mergers, you've got to delve into the human side.” For him, the win is not only the transaction, but building enough credibility and empathy that everyone can cross the finish line feeling respected and secure. Joy-based entrepreneurship “Most discretionary dollars now are in search of experience. They're in search of joy.” Case explains that entrepreneurship education has long centered on solving pain, but entertainment and attractions thrive on creating something people choose because it elevates their day. He argues we're entering a moment where the market is hungry for “heightened experience,” and that demands a new set of tools for identifying and building ideas rooted in delight, not frustration. He connects this to how experiences are becoming more accessible to create, pointing to trampoline parks as a breakthrough that proved you can deliver “outlier, non-everyday experiences with limited capital.” That shift unleashes imagination, invites more founders into the space, and sets the stage for the next wave of innovation, especially as tech-enabled experiences expand what's possible. Influencer-based experiences “Look to YouTube, look to the influencers, look what the young people are watching on TV now.” Case predicts that what audiences binge online will increasingly become what they demand in-person. He describes influencers as experience designers in public, building appetite through episodic “wild experiences” that viewers will soon want to participate in, not just watch. In his words, “the merging of influencer culture with FEC attractions is going to be big.” He also highlights the operational artistry required to translate entertainment into something guests can actually do. Using Ninja Warrior as an example, he notes that the job is to make it feel authentic while adjusting it for real people: “allow them to feel like they're participating in this authentically, but dumb it down, ease it down in a way that they can participate in it… and make them feel like a Ninja Warrior.” Case says Off the Ground is available for pre-order now on Amazon, and will be publicly available on January 20th, 2026.

The Less I Have.. The Happier I Am
For 15 years, Volumes has stood as a pillar of progressive metalcore, weathering lineup shifts and industry trends to amass over 167 million U.S. streams. Following the success of 2021's Happier?, the band returns with Mirror Touch, an album named after the rare synesthetic ability to feel others' physical pain—a metaphor for the band's deep connection with their audience. Check out the exclusive Volumes interview below to hear Michael Barr discuss the "S.O.A.P." sessions, the lessons learned during his time away from the band, and his upcoming side project that is the total opposite of metal. As we approach the final days of the year, this episode offers a double dose of heavy metal authority. In addition to the exclusive sit-down with Michael Barr, Loaded Radio's Scott Penfold takes the reins to count down the Top 13 Metal Albums of 2025. It has been a massive year for the genre, and Scott breaks down the essential records that defined the last twelve months, providing the definitive year-end ranking for any serious headbanger. Whether you're looking for the top of the charts or the underground gems of 2025, this countdown is the ultimate look back before we head into the new year.
We talk about a whimsical way to take better photographs, a useful question for making a hard decision, and the joy of field trips.

Before you set goals for 2026, there's one POWERFUL thing you can do to make sure you don't repeat the same patterns. Think about the previous year – the wins, the losses, the career moves, the travel, the adventure – and what it all means. What did you learn in 2025? And what are you bringing into 2026? In this episode, I reveal my annual reflection process, including the life audit questions I ask each December and the methods I use to stay focused while charting my vision for the year ahead. We're talking about vision boards, joining communities, and setting a "word of the year." My word for 2026? Certainty. For me, 2025 was a year of being out in the world, traveling, getting paid to speak, and hosting four events. In 2026, I'm excited to turn inward and hone in on creating. Consider this episode your gentle nudge to pause, get clear, and start dreaming up what you actually want your next chapter to feel like. P.S.

IN THIS EPISODE: How I audit every core area of my life: health, career, money, relationships, fun, spirituality—and pinpoint where I need to go ALL IN next year Why high-achievers tend to feel let down at year's end, and the counterintuitive hack to focus on massive wins instead The power of designating a "word of the year", and how I came up with mine (2026 is "certainty") Why going after your goals solo often keeps you stuck, and how plugging into the right community or mentorship can make your transformation inevitable LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Dry Boot Camp is an immersive 22-day challenge with a course, live trainings, workbooks, meditations, and a Slack community.
