Send us a textHow business coach Nikhil Paul helps companies grow by going narrow, not wideMost business owners think scaling means reaching more people.Nikhil Paul says it's the opposite.In this week's Outside Insights, my longtime friend and small business growth coach shares why the fastest path to growth is going narrow, not wide—and how identifying your cult customer can transform your business.“You don't need everyone to get to the top. You just need a small, cultish base that loves you, forgives you, and tells everyone about you.” – Nikhil PaulYour cult customer is the one who:Pays you the mostForgives you when you mess upLoves your product so much they can't stop talking about itWhen you know exactly who they are—and build your business around them—you stop chasing everyone, and start leading someone.We explore:What CrossFit, Costco, and Patagonia can teach us about niche obsessionWhy embracing your “weirdos” can turn a company into a movementThe pen-and-paper exercise that reveals your cult customers in 10 minutesHow doubling down on your core audience can let you break industry rules and still winAlong the way, Nikhil shares real-world stories—from Death Wish Coffee's “too strong” gamble to Solé Bicycles' pivot from exercise gear to lifestyle brand—that show how focus fuels profit, loyalty, and freedom.If you're trying to scale beyond $5M, reconnect with your company's heart, or cut through the noise, this episode will give you the clarity—and courage—you've been looking for.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITEver wonder what happens when good manners collide with entitled pet owners? This raw, unfiltered morning chat dives straight into the shocking case of a brewery owner who fractured a steakhouse employee's skull with a plate—all because he was told not to feed his dog from the table. The incident opens a larger conversation about boundaries, entitlement, and the questionable effectiveness of emotional support animals.The conversation shifts to the cultural battlefield of our everyday lives, examining how Anna Navarro publicly pressured Gloria Gaynor to decline her Kennedy Center honor simply because President Trump would be presenting it. This troubling example of partisan litmus tests for cultural achievements reveals how deeply political polarization has infected our appreciation of artistic excellence.Perhaps most concerning is the marketing strategy shift among major cosmetic companies. Urban Decay's decision to hire a porn star to market makeup to teenage girls represents a dangerous normalization of adult content for young audiences. Similarly, ELF Cosmetics featuring both a controversial comedian and a drag queen in their advertisements suggests companies are deliberately courting controversy rather than focusing on product quality. These choices reflect an industry desperately trying to stand out by any means necessary, even at the cost of appropriate messaging.The episode wraps with a personal triumph—quitting smoking after years of addiction. This story of breaking free from cigarettes through discovering a passion for CrossFit offers a refreshing moment of genuine achievement. What habit have you successfully broken? Share your story and join the conversation about setting better boundaries, both personally and culturally.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

Every active mother has heard the warnings: "Be careful with exercise while breastfeeding." But what does science actually tell us about nursing and injury risk? A groundbreaking new study from our research team has finally addressed this question—and the results might surprise you.Breastfeeding itself does not increase injury risk during postpartum exercise. This finding demolishes one of many persistent myths that have circulated for decades, from outdated concerns about lactic acid in breast milk to unfounded fears about milk supply diminishing with activity. While many nursing mothers do report changes in supply when increasing exercise volume, the research suggests this has more to do with inadequate fueling than the exercise itself.What truly increases injury risk postpartum? The study identified two significant factors: reducing exercise by more than 50% during early pregnancy (increasing injury risk by 189%) and current or past eating disorders (increasing risk by 276%). These findings highlight a troubling pattern—the very precautions we take to "protect" pregnant bodies might be setting up postpartum athletes for harder recoveries and more injuries.This research forces us to reconsider our approach to perinatal fitness. Too often, we focus exclusively on what pregnant women shouldn't do, without acknowledging the very real risks of deconditioning. A growing body of evidence suggests that maintaining appropriate fitness throughout pregnancy may facilitate smoother postpartum recovery by preserving muscular support systems that assist healing tissues after delivery.As both a pelvic floor physical therapist and an athlete who competed in weightlifting, CrossFit, and powerlifting through my own pregnancies, I've experienced firsthand how profoundly a healthcare provider's words can impact a pregnant person's sense of safety in their own body. When my high-risk fetal medicine doctor confidently assured me that my trained body could handle continuing weightlifting during pregnancy, it completely transformed my experience.Ready to dive deeper into evidence-based approaches to pregnancy and postpartum fitness?

Maddy grew up in the perfect storm for developing an unhealthy relationship with food—a fitness instructor mom who equated health with eating only whole foods, a competitive dance culture obsessed with body size, and two households with completely opposite food rules.   By 16, dieting felt like the obvious solution when her body changed.   A six-week CrossFit challenge gave her abs and praise—but also set off years of binge-restrict cycles, chronic scale-stepping, body dysmorphia, and obsessive food thoughts.   She couldn't stop checking her body in the mirror or thinking about what she'd eaten, what she “should” eat next, or how to undo the damage after a binge.   In this episode, Maddy shares how she finally broke free from food obsession, stopped the constant body checking, and learned to feel in control around all foods—without relying on rigid meal plans or restriction.   By adopting the mindset and eating habits of a “naturally thin” person, she not only lost weight but has maintained her results for over 3 years.   If you've ever thought, I just want to be normal around food, Maddy's story will show you it's possible.   Connect with Leslie:   • Website • Instagram • Facebook     If you're struggling with emotional, binge, or compulsive eating and want to master self-control at every bite while turning the volume down on food noise, watch the FREE "Curb the Urge" mini-training and download the accompanying workbook.   Or, if you want to be the first to know when we're opening the doors to our signature psychology-based weight loss program, Outsmart Overeating (and get exclusive access to early bird discounts and fast action bonuses), join the Interest List.

At 65, Judi Oyama is still lining up at the start gate — not in a “Masters” category, but shoulder-to-shoulder with athletes half, or even a quarter her age. She's a World Champion slalom skateboarder, a Hall of Fame inductee, and a pioneer who's been breaking barriers since she first picked up a board in Santa Cruz in the early 1970s.Back then, women's divisions barely existed. Prize money was unequal. Media crews left during women's finals. Judi skated anyway — pushing through invisibility, injury, and a sport that wasn't built to include her. Five decades later, she's still competing, still winning, and mentoring the next generation of racers who may one day take the sport to the Olympics.In this episode, we talk about:What slalom skateboarding actually is — and why it's so addictiveHow Judi fought for gender and racial equality in skateboardingThe longevity toolkit she's built: CrossFit, heavy lifting, recovery, and smart nutritionWhy representation matters, and how she's mentoring young women in the sportHow to stay competitive, joyful, and relevant in your sport for decadesHer motto: “Be badass every day” — and what it means in practiceWhether you've ever stepped on a skateboard or not, Judi's story is about rewriting the limits others put on you, and replacing them with your own.Follow Judi on Instagram Cover pic

I'm Anna, 41 years old, and I live on a small lifestyle property in Ashburton, New Zealand, with my husband Russ and three young children. I'm a part-time primary school teacher and stay-at-home Mum. I grew up in an ‘average' Kiwi home in the 80s/90s; very few takeaways and ultra-processed foods, but delicious home-cooked meals and a really active lifestyle, playing a lot of sport. I developed early and had a lean, athletic build. I was diagnosed with PCOS at 14 years old, and later with insulin resistance and hypothyroidism. Playing a lot of sport kept my weight in check, but I always felt bigger than my peers. The freedom to eat what I wanted, partying at university and decreased physical activity after moving out of home saw my weight balloon. I've done Weight Watchers multiple times over the years and could lose a lot of weight since I'm a rule follower and very good at keeping to a diet! But Icould never get to that point of maintenance. Returning to NZ after living overseas, I met Russ, and started doing CrossFit in 2014 and seeing a nutritionist. I focused on eating nutrient-dense ‘clean' foods and lost about 20kg. In 2017, Russ and I married, and I was the smallest I'd been in a long time. A year later, we had our son, and 21 months later, our middle daughter. I sadly miscarried our 3rd baby and then had our youngest daughter in 2022. I developed gestational diabetes early on in my last pregnancy and was injecting insulin. This, coupled with a family history of diabetes on both sides of my family, meant I was on track to develop diabetes in the near future. Being pregnant 4 times in 5 years and looking after a young family meant my health took a back seat, and I continued putting on weight. I've always enjoyed cooking healthy meals for my family and kept working out, but was fighting a losing battle. I was resigned to the fact I would be plus size for the rest of my life, and was trying to be ok with that, I couldn't see any other way.On 15 July 2024, I started IF and haven't looked back, losing over 35kg in just over a year and am now heading towards the land of maintenance.  To join the Patreon Community.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."                                Teddy RooseveltIn this episode:What was life like growing up?What are your life's essential ingredients?Military provides an opportunity to see the world… what are some of your memorable places you have been to?COMMITMENT to being on the team with no intention of leaving the team…War in Iraq was an inspiration for you at age 17… why?Dealing with dark periods… what helped you get thru them…Bedford has a HUGE military history…Dealing with no access to technology… how did you get thru those challenges…Hero Games was started in 2017 out of necessity… the games provided an opportunity to give back to your brothers and sisters who have fallen…Tell the story about the Hero Games journey…Coaching at your brother's Cross Fit company…what have you learned about people and coaching…The honor of giving back….and something we should all do…Books you recommend?Congrats on your podcast – Hero Games.. interview the families who were the recipient of the Stoicism – what do you appreciate about it…Hero Games SEAR Training– survive, evade, resist, escape…was one funding source for Hero Games which led to Counter Culture SolutionsThe Weight We Carry… Legacy

In this episode, Jason sits down with CrossFit legend, Rich Froning, to dive deep into the mental and physical toughness it takes to succeed, not just in the gym, but in the mountains. Rich opens up about his passion for hunting, what drew him to it, and how it’s challenged him in ways he didn’t expect. They explore how the intensity of elite fitness compares to the patience and grit required in the backcountry, what training really matters when you're preparing for a hunt, and how to stay disciplined when life’s full of competing priorities. From workouts and recovery to mindset and motivation, this conversation is about pushing limits, building resilience, and finding growth through discomfort, whether you’re on the trail or under a heavy barbell. If you're serious about becoming a tougher, more capable version of yourself, in the field and beyond, you won’t want to miss this one.
