Podcasts about Laird

Most people start fitness strong and fall off. Mike Laird—coach, former director at a top global fitness company, cancer survivor, and mentor to six-figure trainers—breaks down why retention collapses and how to build systems that last. We get real about motivation vs. action, the “all-or-nothing” trap, social media noise, and the leadership skills that keep both clients and coaches engaged. If you lead a team, run a gym, or just want health that sticks, this conversation gives you a direct playbook for consistency, communication, and balance that works on the gym floor and in business.   About the Guest  : Mike Laird is an operations-minded health and business coach, lifelong athlete with a baseball background, and a family-first leader. He's helped dozens of trainers build sustainable six-figure practices and rebuilt his own life after a rare, life-threatening cancer—proving that discipline plus perspective beats hustle-and-burnout culture.   Key Takeaways: Retention fails when we do “too much, too fast”; sustainable change needs a paced entry and clear steps. Action precedes motivation. Small, repeatable actions create the momentum most people wait for. The “all-or-nothing” narrative is a myth; fit the program around your life, not your life into a program. Social media “influencer” advice often causes paralysis by analysis; most of it isn't built for 99% of people. Trainers burn out when they're thrown in without development; business skills and people skills are trainable. Leaders who know their people—their goals, personality types, and communication styles—keep teams engaged longer. Relationship building and a nurtured lead book beat quick wins; systems matter more than streaks. Balance isn't a luxury; it's a retention strategy—for clients, coaches, and executives. Freedom after crisis looks like presence and priorities; loosen the calendar when it serves the mission. Stack good days. Consistency, not perfection, compounds in health, business, and life.   Connect with the Guest   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/axisperformancetx/   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

While the biggest contests naturally attract the most focus, pivoting to less serious divisions can sometimes create better paths to rewards.We'll discuss:• Why competition selection matters as much as lineup quality• How to identify spots where fewer managers compete• The potential advantages of zigging when everyone else zagsWhether you're playing Limiteds, Rares, or higher scarcities, understanding where the opportunities are can make a huge difference in your ROI.

Comic Book Creator and LEGEND!  (Recorded live at Tucson Comic Con Sunday, August 31, 2025) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Crow, Heavy Metal Magazine Born in Portland, Maine in 1962 Kevin Eastman began drawing at a very young age, copying children's books, and reading comics. Inspired by master storyteller Jack Kirby, and later by self-publishing creators Richard Corben, creating his own characters and comics became an obsession. Born in Portland, Maine in 1962 Kevin Eastman began drawing at a very young age, copying children's books, and reading comics. Inspired by master storyteller Jack Kirby, and later by self-publishing creators Richard Corben, creating his own characters and comics became an obsession. In the late 70's and early 80's, self-published “Mini Comics” became a main artistic outlet, and while soliciting illustration work from local fanzines in Northampton Massachusetts, he met like-minded creator Peter Laird and the partnership studio, Mirage Studios was formed. Less than a year later in the middle of a late-night drawing session, Eastman doodled a new character he dubbed a “Ninja Turtle” to make Laird laugh—several sillier sketches and a final drawing of four characters later “Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” had officially entered the universe! Self-published in May of 1984 the first issue sold out of its 3000 copies overnight and quickly became a fan favorite. Catching the eye of Merchandising Agents and Hollywood Producers, Eastman and Laird maintained full control of their creations while guiding them through Toy Licensing, TV Series adaptation, as well as Feature Films, and by early 1990 the TMNT's were number one in all three categories. In between TMNT projects, Eastman launched a creator friendly publishing company, “Tundra Publishing” where projects like “The Crow” “From Hell” “Madman” and “Understanding Comics” first flourished, as well as purchased and published the world renowned “Heavy Metal Magazine” for more than twenty-five years. In 2020 based on an original 1987 concept by Kevin and Peter, Kevin adapted and launched The Last Ronin with longtime TMNT Writer/Co-Writer Tom Waltz. The epic tale quickly became the TMNT publishing event of the decade, both a critical success, and a New York Times Best Seller. The series continued with The Last Ronin: Lost Years in 2023 and 2024The Last Ronin II: Re-Evolution. When not having way too much fun writing and drawing on new TMNT projects, he launched a new maxiseries with Image Comics entitled, Drawing Blood as well as companion limited series the Radically Rearranged Ronin Ragdolls, with co-creator David Avallone, and artists Ben Bishop and Troy Little.   Thanks to “THE BEST FANS ON THE ENTIRE PLANET!” according to Eastman, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles continue to find their way into the hearts and imaginations of kids, large and small more than four decades later. Cowabunga! In 2025 Kevin, his wife Courtney and Team Eastman will be visiting comic conventions and signings around the world, ensuring they are always accessible and able to connect with fans as we all continue to Shellebrate the awesome legacy of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

I'm starting a brand new Sorare challenge that I've never tried before. The rules are simple, but the big question is: can I actually compete this way?In this video, I'll explain the challenge, show the cards I've already bought, and talk through my strategy for building lineups that can (hopefully) win rewards.

In this episode of SorareAndrews, Andrew Laird and Black dive into the age-old Sorare question: how many lineups are enough each gameweek? Do we already have too many?

The Tex Diary of T. Laird! . . . YOU DON'T KNOW MOJACK is a podcast dedicated to exploring the entire SST catalogue, in order, from start to finish. During the podcast we will discuss all the releases that are part of our core DNA, as well as many lesser-known releases that deserve a second chance, or releases that we are discovering for the very first time (we actually don't know Mojack!). First and foremost we are fans, and acknowledge that we are not perfect and don't know everything – sometimes the discussion is more about a time, place, feeling, personal experience or random tangents, and less about the facts (but we will try to get to the facts too).

This week, hosts Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter venture down a sweeter path on The Bourbon Road podcast for a truly decadent and educational experience. They are joined by a very special guest, Nicole Patel, the founder and master chocolatier of the Austin-based Delysia Chocolatier. In a fascinating twist, Nicole reveals that her journey to becoming a chocolatier began after earning a master's degree in engineering. She discusses how her engineering mindset and a challenge to conquer the particular science of chocolate making—from tempering to managing temperature and humidity—led her to create her business. Throughout the episode, Nicole guides Jim and Todd through a blind tasting, pairing a variety of spirits with selections from her "History of Chocolate" tasting set without any advance knowledge of the whiskeys. She provides expert instruction on the proper way to experience the pairings: first tasting the bourbon, then letting a piece of chocolate melt on the tongue to appreciate its individual flavors, and finally, combining the two to see how they interact and transform one another. The result is an exploration of complementary and contrasting flavors that will inspire listeners to host their own tasting parties. The pairings on this episode include: Round 1: Jim's Blanton's Single Barrel, with its traditional caramel and baking spice notes, is paired with Delysia's Spiced Ganache truffle. Todd's seven-year Old Fitzgerald wheated bourbon, featuring cherry and honey notes, is matched with a Chipotle Orange truffle made with unique ruby chocolate. Round 2: Jim brings out a Weller 12 Year, noted for its cherry and oak profile, which he and Todd both pair with the complex Mexican Mole truffle, containing a blend of eight peppers and six spices. Todd also tastes his Old Grand-Dad Bottled-in-Bond, with its characteristic peanut note, against the spicy chocolate. Round 3: The hosts throw some curveballs. Jim pours a Michter's Barrel Strength Bourbon, featuring dark fruit and caramel notes, which Nicole pairs with the Apple Pie truffle. Todd selects a Laird's Apple Brandy, which is also expertly paired with the Apple Pie truffle, with its notes of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and tart green apple. Round 4: For the final tasting, Jim enjoys an Angel's Envy Cask Strength finished in tawny port barrels, bringing savory, dark grape notes. This is paired with the White Peach Balsamic white chocolate truffle. Todd concludes with a peaty Ardbeg Corryvreckan scotch, which Nicole matches with a simple yet elegant Smoked Cacao truffle, made with 85% bittersweet chocolate and salt smoked in a Texas barbecue pit. Join the roadies for an episode that proves there are no wrong answers in pairing, only delicious experiments. Learn about the anatomy of a truffle, the art of flavor creation, and why bourbon and chocolate are a match made in heaven.
