Podcasts about medals

In this engaging conversation, Shelby and Courtney chat with runDisney lover Meghan Swope about her journey into running, particularly her experiences with completing her second Dopey Challenge at Walt Disney World. They discuss the challenges of running in extreme weather (Florida sun!!), the importance of training, and the sense of community that comes with participating in races. Meghan shares her motivations for running, the significance of medals, and how her goals have evolved over time. The conversation highlights the joy and camaraderie found in the runDisney community, making it an inspiring listen for both seasoned runners and newcomers alike. In this conversation, Meghan Swope shares her journey through marathon training, emphasizing the discipline required and the balance between social life and running. She discusses her philosophy on training distances, the mental barriers runners face, and her experiences in international marathons. Meghan highlights the importance of community and support in achieving personal goals, encouraging others to embrace challenges and find their own paths in running and life.   Takeaways Meghan started running in 2012 after a bad breakup. The Dopey challenge includes running multiple races over a weekend. Extreme weather can significantly impact race conditions and outcomes. Training is crucial for building endurance and mental strength. Running events create a sense of community and celebration. Medals serve as tangible rewards for hard work and achievement. Motivation can fluctuate during training and races. The camaraderie among runners enhances the experience. Completing a race is a significant accomplishment, regardless of distance. Future goals can evolve based on experiences and themes of races. New York was the most disciplined I've ever been with training. I don't think you should ever go above 20 miles in training. Tapering is crucial before a marathon. Training for a marathon is like a part-time job. You have to commit to your training schedule. You can shift your long runs around social events. You hold yourself back more than circumstances do. Meeting new people during races can lead to great friendships. Fueling strategies can vary by country. It's important to enjoy the journey and the community.

Sometimes the wins that matter most are the ones nobody else understands. Show Notes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor shares a personal win that might seem small to the outside world but meant everything to him. Two weeks into learning piano, he earned an official music certificate that normally takes three to four months to achieve. And even with advanced degrees and professional accolades behind him, this moment hit different. Why? Because it was hard. It mattered. And it was something he did purely for himself. Baylor breaks down why personal pride is one of the most overlooked drivers of confidence and momentum. When you accomplish something that challenges you, stretches you, and forces you to fight through frustration, it creates a kind of validation that no external applause can replace. This episode dives into why comparing your wins to others is a losing game. What feels small to one person can be monumental to another. Progress is personal, and pride should be too. He also unpacks the idea of "mental medals" — the internal trophies you earn through resilience, effort, and persistence. Unlike physical awards, these can't be taken away, sold, or diminished. They become proof you can revisit during moments of doubt, burnout, or discouragement. From throwing yourself into the fire instead of testing the water, to pushing through the phase where everything feels overwhelming, this episode is a reminder that mastery always begins with discomfort and persistence. If you're chasing goals in 2026, this episode challenges you to stop waiting for recognition and start doing things that make you proud when nobody's watching. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why personal wins often matter more than public accolades • How doing hard things builds real confidence • The danger of judging your progress by someone else's standards • Why jumping in beats slowly testing the water • How "mental medals" fuel resilience during tough seasons • The connection between pride, momentum, and long-term growth Featured Quote "Do something that makes you proud of yourself. That's a medal nobody can ever take away."

As South Dakota tribes mark the 135th anniversary of the Wounded Knee Massacre, they face a headwind of history revision by the Trump administration. After years of admonishment by tribal leaders to rescind the Medals of Honor awarded to the soldiers who participated in the massacre, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth instead praised the soldiers for their bravery and declared that the medals will stand. Since then, President Donald Trump signed legislation preserving land at the site in honor of the tragedy. We'll get perspective on how Wounded Knee is remembered.

Is your "swag" secretly hurting your brand? In this episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter sits down with Eric Turney from The Monterey Company to talk about why your promo gear should do more than just check a box—it should actually say something about your brand. Eric shares his unconventional path from construction, to almost becoming a physical therapist, to "falling backward" into sales and eventually buying the company he worked for. He and Walter dig into the real differences between being a great salesperson and being a great sales manager, handling customers who only care about price, and why saying "no" is sometimes the most professional move you can make. They also get into the nuts and bolts of branded merch: why quality matters, how to help clients think beyond cheap t-shirts, and what the pandemic and shipping chaos taught Eric's team about communication, margins, and long-term customer loyalty. If you've ever ordered promo products for an event, trade show, or team—and regretted it—this one's for you. In This Episode: College vs reality – Why what you learn in college has almost nothing to do with building wealth or becoming an entrepreneur. Rich Dad, Poor Dad mindset – The books that shifted Eric's view of money, business, and long-term wealth creation. From construction to custom merch – How a layoff, a false start in physical therapy, and a new baby on the way pushed Eric into sales at The Monterey Company. Learning sales on the fly – Word tracks, repetition, and what he learned from a top car salesman buddy. The Dutch Bros lesson – Why consistently great experience beats mediocre product—and how Eric trains his reps to "bottle" that. Salesperson vs sales manager – Why being good at selling doesn't automatically make you good at leading a sales team—and what Eric had to learn the hard way. Needing to be liked – Staying up late worrying about orders, over-promising, and the shift from "pushover" to respected advisor. When to say no – Recognizing problem customers, setting boundaries, and why "if they come for price, they'll leave for price." Niche focus – How Monterey naturally gravitated to government, military, and public service clients—and what those buyers really need. Helping the real decision-maker – Working with marketing coordinators and event planners who are tasked with buying merch but don't know where to start. The Core Four sales process – Call leads quickly, text often, quote fast, and get an art proof in front of the customer ASAP. COVID, ports, and tariffs – Container costs jumping 10x, shipping delays, switching to air freight, and choosing to eat margin to preserve long-term relationships. Quality vs cheap – Why spending 20–50% more can result in a 10x better product—and how that shows up in customer perception. Brand alignment in merch – Walmart polos vs Carhartt gear, why your team's apparel reflects your brand values, and how "one thing is how you do everything." Upselling the smart way – Medals plus shirts, plus stickers; building better event experiences instead of just pushing more product. Lifetime value thinking – Why Eric would rather lose margin on a few orders than lose a great client for good. Cigars & solitude – Eric's "special occasion" approach to cigars and why a great stick pairs well with quiet, not crowds.

Nick Griggs, U23 gold medallist and Mark Kirk, Nick's coach, recall the success of Irish athletes at the European Cross Country Championships in Portugal.

A Tucson, Ariz. resident is facing federal charges for allegedly excavating and trafficking archeological resources from the Gila River Indian Community. The U.S. Attorney's Office says 46-year-old Leo Reynoso stands accused of violating the Archeological Resources Protection Act. Prosecutors said Reynoso allegedly removed several artifacts from the community without authorization. This included jewelry, Indian Trader tokens, crucifixes, and buttons from archeological sites on tribal land. He also stands accused of selling these items without a permit. The archeological value of the items is estimated at $29,000, while the cost of repairing the archeological sites is estimated at $23,000. If convicted, Reynoso faces a $20,000 fine and could get up to two years in prison. U.S. soldiers at a burial for some of those who were killed at Wounded Knee, S.D. on January 1, 1891. December 29 will mark 130 years since the Wounded Knee Massacre. In part two of his story, KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio shares some Native reactions to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's assertion that the soldiers who took part in the violent and tragic incident deserved their Medals of Honor. David Martinez (Akimel O'odham) is founder and director of ASU's Institute for Transborder Indigenous Nations. “Wherever you see America invading, sending troops, trying to intimidate – all that comes from America's original attitude towards the so-called frontier, which was regarded as wild, which was regarded as dangerous, which was regarded as full of savages.” From the Utes across modern-day Utah and Colorado to the Apaches in Arizona and New Mexico, the Army fought over a dozen conflicts predating federal recognition of tribal governments. “There's not a tribe anywhere in North America that did not experience deep, historic trauma.” Even the Bureau of Indian Affairs emerged in 1824 from within the original War Department. Two centuries later, Martinez suggests it's fitting that President Donald Trump has restored the agency's old moniker. “Well, for me, the Department of War is the true name, because, from my point of view as an Indigenous person, the objective in America's conquest of Indian Country was to make Indian Country like America. It did so at the expense of Indian land and people. And so the reservation system that we see around us today, which includes my people, Akimel O'odham, is a product of war.” Lakota attorney Chase Iron Eyes calls the reservations prison camps. “There are those of us who never perceived an end of war. If you look at what the reservation system is, it's not peace, prosperity, and privilege for Native people; it's a little open-air prison camp.” For Iron Eyes, who runs the Lakota People's Law Project, Wounded Knee is deeply personal. “As the great-great grandson of people who were killed at Wounded Knee, nobody in their right mind takes pride in the slaughtering of non-combatants – women and children.” Marlis Afraid of Hawk grew up hearing horror stories from her grandfather, Richard, who was only 13 when he survived Wounded Knee. The 68-year-old Oglala Lakota elder insists Sec. Hegseth is wrong. “He's in denial, look it up. But he's not going to.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Photo courtesy Cherokee Nation / Facebook In Tahlequah, Okla. this week, Cherokee language speakers and officials unveiled a Cherokee language dictionary app. They were joined by representatives of Kiwa Digital Limited, who developed the app based on a Cherokee dictionary 50 years ago, created by Native speaker Durbin Feeling. Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Junior said the new app will allow every Cherokee family to carry the resource in their pockets, and represented the tribe's sovereignty and knowledge, as well as their commitment to keep the Cherokee language strong for generations to come. “For the last five centuries, our language and our culture has been under assault, has been eroded, and that's the story of Indigenous languages around the world. Many of which the languages that have been lost and that we will lose in the future. Many of which are a part of history books, about languages that once were.” Chief Hoskin said he expected the app to become more than a simple curiosity for tribal members, and will be especially embraced by children and other youth. The Cherokee Language Dictionary App includes translations for more than 6-thousand Cherokee words, with audio recordings, grammar notes, and phonetics. Under my direction, the soldiers who fought at the Battle of Wounded Knee will keep their medals. This decision is final. Their place in history is settled. pic.twitter.com/klQlB6MZ6l — Secretary of War Pete Hegseth (@SecWar) September 25, 2025 Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an unusual speech in September to top brass in which he railed against “woke” ideology and hyped the recently rebranded Department of War. He also weighed in on a long-simmering controversy involving the so-called Battle of Wounded Knee which occurred on December 29, 1890, where hundreds of Lakotas were killed by the U.S. Army. Many consider that conflict a massacre – and have called for the soldiers to be stripped of their Medals of Honor. Sec. Hegseth dismissed the idea as political correctness run amok and released a video defending the soldiers and their medals. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, it was a painful message for tribes throughout the country. “Under my direction, we're making it clear, without hesitation, that the soldiers who fought in the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890 will keep their medals.” Although bipartisan efforts in Congress to rescind those Medals of Honor go back decades, only a president has the legal authority – beyond the Pentagon itself – to undo that distinction. “This decision is now final, and their place in our nation's history is no longer up for debate. We salute their memory, we honor their service, and we will never forget what they did.” In what would be the final chapter of the Army's century-long “Indian Wars” campaign, as many as 300 Lakotas were killed at Wounded Knee in South Dakota – while at least 25 U.S. soldiers died. A rifle shot rang out when troops tried disarming a surrendering encampment on December 29, 1890. In that confusion, the mass slaughter of mostly unarmed men, women and children ensued. Army general Nelson Appleton Miles penned in private, “I have never heard of a more, brutal cold-blooded massacre than that at Wounded Knee.” To this day, there is still no official death count. Hegseth's comments came a few weeks after President Donald Trump signed an executive order, rebranding his agency as the Department of War. “This is something we thought long and hard about. We've been talking about it for months, Pete and I … I think it's a much more appropriate name, especially in light of where the world is right now.” From the Russian invasion of Ukraine to the Israeli-Hamas conflict in Gaza, the same dynamics of Wounded Knee – of civilians being killed by conquering military forces – continue to play out all around the globe, according to David Martinez. “And I would go further and say that what you see in contemporary American foreign policy was forged in America's battles with Indian people.” Tune in tomorrow to hear how the history of Wounded Knee continues for many Native people today.  Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

HYROX Regionals gets ripped apart for mixing Open weights with Worlds qualifiers, and everyone agrees it is messy and needs to be separate from Pro. Prize money for the new Elite 15 LCQ is confirmed, and the upcoming Puma HYROX shoe gets early reactions from the crew. Thanksgiving running gets recapped, including Matt's brutal Atlanta hills, Cheryl's short but steep four miler, and Dave's classic run together move that ended with him sprinting away 500 meters in. DEKA China looked unreal with smoke, lighting, a full stage finish, and huge production value. Now the focus shifts to Fort Lauderdale as Dave heads down Wednesday for DEKA Worlds. He is judging, he is racing multiple events, and everyone wants to see how the FIT fields stack up on a fully judged floor. The show covers who is in form, what the judging will look like, what production pieces DEKA needs to nail, and why athletes should film their full race if they want clean evidence for disputes. Plenty of laughs, plenty of inside jokes, and a lot of excitement heading into one of the biggest weekends of the DEKA season.

Mark and Michele's path began in 2019 with their first ayahuasca experience — a moment that opened the door to deep healing, clarity, and transformation. What started as a personal awakening quickly became a calling to help others find the same freedom, connection, and inner truth. Walking this medicine path reshaped their lives, their purpose, and their relationship. Guided by the belief that healing should be accessible, safe, andsupported, they set out to build spaces where people could learn, connect, and grow together.From that vision came The Plant Medicine Path, a thriving community dedicated to education, integration, and conscious living. Alongside it, theylaunched Mama Dose, offering micro-dosing support and high-integrity products for daily mental clarity — and Medicine with the Medals, a podcast sharing realstories, wisdom, and heartfelt conversations about plant medicine and personal transformation. Their mission is simple:To empower others through education, community, and the healing intelligenceof plant medicines.Because when people feel supported, informed, and connected, transformationbecomes possible — for individuals and for the world.

Amy Boorman is a decorated and globally respected gymnastics coach, whose career included twelve years coaching the sport's all-time greatest, Simone Biles. She was named USA Gymnastics Coach of the Year four times and US Olympic Committee Coach of the Year in 2016. She was head coach of the US Women's Gymnastics Team at the Rio Olympic Games and coached for the Dutch Gymnastics Federation in 2021, including at the Tokyo Olympic Games.  Her book is titled: The Balance: My Years Coaching Simone Biles. Summary In this conversation, Aimee Boorman reflects on her evolution from a competitive gymnast to an elite coach, including her 12-year journey coaching Simone Biles. She talks about how her early experience with harsh, unsupportive coaching shaped her belief that great coaching starts with empathy, communication, and trust. Aimee focuses on coaching the whole person, not just the athlete, and explains how vulnerability, collaboration, and giving athletes room to fail safely build both performance and character. She describes how she nurtured Simone's extraordinary natural ability, what she calls “air sense savant,” while helping her develop emotional maturity and self-accountability. The discussion also explores the mental challenges elite athletes face, including the “twisties,” and why protecting mental health must come before medals. Aimee's approach shows that excellence is less about winning and more about integrity, growth, and joy in the process.   Takeaways ·        Great coaches lead with empathy and see athletes as whole people, not performance machines. ·        Trust grows through honest communication and vulnerability, which create psychological safety and resilience. ·        Allowing athletes to fail safely teaches self-awareness and accountability more effectively than control or punishment. ·        Real confidence comes from ownership—shifting from performing for approval to performing for yourself. ·        Success follows when the focus moves from outcomes such as scores or medals to inputs like effort, attitude, and preparation. ·        Pressure and anxiety block performance, while freedom and presence unlock it. ·        Mental health should always take priority over results because well-being sustains excellence. ·        The best coaches are remembered not just for producing champions but for helping young people grow into strong, self-directed adults.   Notes: Book: The Balance: My Years Coaching Simone Biles

“The one thing I reminded myself of and something my coach has been telling me all year is this: Don't feel like you have to be anybody else. What you've been doing has been working for you. Continue to do that. If you've been being Melissa all year and you've been winning all year, what else do you need to do? Just go out there and be yourself.”My guest for today's episode is Melissa Jefferson-Wooden — the 25-year-old from Georgetown, South Carolina who just pulled off one of the rarest feats in track and field: the golden sprint triple crown.At the World Championships in Tokyo, Melissa won the 100, the 200, and was part of the Team USA team that took gold in the 4x100m relay — becoming the first American woman ever, and only the second woman in history after Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, to sweep the sprints at a single Worlds.Her winning times — 10.61 in the 100m and 21.68 in the 200m — weren't just dominant; they cemented her as the fourth-fastest woman of all time and within striking distance of Flo-Jo's world record.But what makes Melissa's story so special isn't just the speed. It's also the journey.If you've followed some of her career leading into 2025, she calls herself a self-described ‘village kid' who had two partial college offers. She saved her dad's life at 17 years old with a bone marrow transplant. She built herself from an NCAA champion out of Coastal Carolina to a global superstar, who can boast the title of the fastest woman on earth.In this episode, we talk about that rise, the lessons that come with greatness all throughout 2025 from her races in April through September, and how she's thinking about being one of the faces of the sport.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: Melissa Jefferson-Wooden | @__melissaj19 on Instagram Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSHOKA: We're takin' over Happy Camper Chicago (Old Town) with HOKA during the Chicago Marathon festivities.

Culture keepers and historians are closely watching President Donald Trump's review of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) and other institutions to eliminate what he calls derisive or partisan narratives. It's among eight museums that receive federal funding are that are currently under review. NMAI's exhibits include Native American perspectives on historical documents and events that include treaties, Indian Boarding Schools, the Termination Era, the American Indian Movement, and the Indian Child Welfare Act, among many others. Those watching are concerned Trump's directive could permanently alter how those topics are presented to the public. NMAI also develops educational curricula that counters incomplete instruction on historical events, like Thanksgiving. We'll hear from those who were instrumental in NMAI's founding, as well as get perspective on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's announcement that soldiers that took part in the Wounded Knee Massacre would retain their Medals of Honor. GUESTS Dr. Suzan Shown Harjo (Cheyenne and Hodulgee Muscogee), president of the Morning Star Institute, a founding trustee of NMAI, and recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom Rick West Jr. (Cheyenne and Arapaho), CEO emeritus of the Autry Museum of the American West and founding director of NMAI OJ Semans Sr. (Rosebud Sioux), co-executive director of Four Directions Vote

Let's talk about Hegseth, medals, warriors, and a random civilian....
