Are you thriving or just surviving? Steve Magness joins Kevin to discuss how many of us operate in psychological survival mode far more often than we realize, treating everyday workplace challenges as threats rather than growth opportunities. They explore the psychological traps of modern stress responses, protective systems, and the impact of flattening our identities. They also cover accepting “messiness”, the balance between short-term comfort and long-term growth, redefining success, and why authenticity must go beyond performance to resonate.

In today's episode, Mark & Jamie are back from the NWTF, and BOY it was a blast (00:20). We've seen all kinds of gadgets for hunting, but hearing aids might just be a first (04:31). If you're down in the Mid-South with us, check out these upcoming events (07:51)! Mikey and Will got down and dirty taking care of trees on the farm this past weekend (09:20). If you're growing trees for catalpa worms, these are the TOP tips to grow em' up (16:01). With Malcom out this week, we've brought on a special guest to talk ALL about fishing the Mississippi River (19:39)! If you've never fished on the Mississippi, David's here to give you a CRASH COURSE on reading the river (24:38). When you go on a trip with David, it's not always about catching the biggest fish but rather the best experience (31:24)! After years and years of taking folks on trips, these are David's FAVORITE fishing trips he's guided (33:59). Everyone thinks the best time to go fishing is after deer season, but that might not be the case (41:55). Fishing has gotten really popular over the past few years, but that means that we HAVE to focus on conservation (45:22)... David's been tagging fish in Mississippi for a LONG time, but he's NEVER seen anything quite like this (47:08)! We've all seen those HUGE catfish, but how long does it actually take for those fish to get that big (54:27)? Those paylakes might sound like a good idea on paper, but they are a BIG detriment to trophy catfishermen (58:52). This is the BEST BAIT to catch a monster catfish (1:04:05)!

Today's conversation on the podcast is one that I've been wanting to have for many years now. I have the privilege of sitting down with and learning from Steve Magness. I was first impacted by Steve's work in 7th grade and have been a loyal follower ever since, consistently being impacted by his work. Steve is an acclaimed author, performance coach, and former collegiate track and cross-country coach who has written four books, The Science of Running, Peak Performance, Do Hard Things, and his newest release coming this February, Win the Inside Game. All told, his books have sold over three-quarters of a million copies, been named national and international best sellers, and have been translated into 25 languages. Steve's academic career exploring exercise physiology and then mental performance has shaped his all-encompassing outlook on performance. Steve's writing has appeared in Outside, Runner's World, Forbes, Sports Illustrated, Men's Health, in addition to many others. Steve received his undergraduate degree from the University of Houston and a graduate degree from George Mason. Steve has a PR of 4:01 in the mile in High School, which at the time was the seventh fastest high school mile in US history. He was also a part of the fastest HS Distance Medley Relay team in 2003. Steve ran for Rice and Houston during his collegiate career, nearly making nationals as a senior at Houston. Steve was the head track coach at the University of Houston from 2014-2020 after working for Nike as a coach and adviser to their professional runners. (He worked with gold and silver medalists from the 2011 World Champs and the 2012 Olympic Games in London.) Prior to coaching in college and professionally, Magness worked at Klein Oak HS. He currently lives in Houston, Texas. Steve has a terrific newsletter on health, well-being and performance. He is also a great follow on Twitter and Instagram. In today's conversation, we dive into Steve's background in sport, his coaching and writing, insights on excellence both in and out of sport, his newest book, and so much more.
