 Episode Summary: The world tells dads to fight the “dad bod” with crunches and protein shakes. But the real battle isn't against belly fat — it's against passivity, disconnection, and drifting identity. In this special Father's Day episode, Chris and Annie break down 11 traits that define a strong father, using insights from Mind Pump's Fatherhood Episode and Dan Martell's character-first leadership list. These traits go way deeper than fitness. They shape how you lead your family, support your marriage, and show up for yourself — mentally, emotionally, and physically.  What You'll Learn:  Identity Before Action You don't rise to your goals — you fall to your identity. Learn why many dads struggle with purpose and how to rebuild clarity, mission, and personal standards.  The 11 Traits Every Dad Needs (That Have Nothing to Do with Abs): Reliability Kindness Integrity Gratitude Being on Time Humility Patience Self-Awareness Strength & Fitness Inspired by: Mind Pump's fatherhood framework + Dan Martell's “10 qualities I admire more than skills”  Fighting the “Dad Bod” Starts in the Mind What does the emotional/mental “dad bod” look like? Why leadership, not laziness, is the key to transformation What happens when a dad wakes up and owns his role  Marriage + Fatherhood = Leadership Strong dads create strong marriages Strong marriages create safe, loving homes Be the kind of man your kids want to become  Take Action: Reflect: Which of the 11 traits will you double down on this week?

Episode Title: “Let's Be Honest: Top 5 Fitness Excuses (and What to Do Instead)” Episode Summary: We all make excuses — even us. But in this episode, we're calling them out. From “I don't have time” to “I'll start Monday,” we're breaking down the most common excuses people use to delay their health and fitness goals. Chris and Annie share real stories from marriage, gym life, and client experiences — plus practical mindset flips to help you break free from the patterns that are holding you back. Whether it's about working out, staying accountable, or dialing in your nutrition, this episode is your honest wake-up call (with some laughs along the way). What You'll Hear in This Episode:  Top Exercise Excuses “I don't have time.” (Hint: you do — it's about priorities.) “I need to get in shape before I join a gym.” “I'm too tired after work.” “I don't know what to do.” Strategy: time-blocking, morning workouts, working out as a couple, and using a coach (hello, SISU!).  Accountability Excuses “I'll start Monday.” “I just need motivation.” “I'm not consistent.” Truth Bomb: You don't rise to the level of your motivation. You fall to the level of your systems.  Real Talk: Marriage & Excuses What happens when one spouse is all-in and the other is dragging their feet How to lovingly challenge your partner without starting World War III The best excuses we've made to each other — and how we turned them around Key Takeaway: “Excuses are normal — but not helpful. You can have excuses, or you can have progress. You choose.” Let's Hear From You: What's an excuse you've used (or still use)? Which one hit home the most? Tag us in your next couple's walk or workout, or DM us your story — we love hearing from you. Don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a couple who needs a little push.

Guest: Thomas Blackwell, keynote speaker, mindset coach, and founder of Say Do Achieve Episode Summary: In this powerful and inspiring episode, we sit down with Thomas Blackwell — a former Division I tennis coach, successful entrepreneur, and now sought-after keynote speaker and high-performance coach — to unpack how the words we speak shape the lives we lead. From building businesses to building a strong marriage with his high school sweetheart, Thomas shares timeless truths on mindset, language, leadership, and love. Whether you're chasing big goals or looking to strengthen your relationship, this episode will challenge and empower you to say more of what you want, do what you say, and achieve the life you were meant to live. What We Cover: From Sports to Speaking: How Thomas transitioned from college tennis coach to insurance entrepreneur to mindset expert impacting thousands around the globe. Language & Leadership: Why the words you use in your daily life — especially in your relationships — are your most powerful tools for transformation. Marriage as Peak Performance: What it looks like to build a high-performance marriage (hint: it's not about being perfect — it's about staying aligned, grateful, and intentional).

In marriage, alignment trumps agreement — being on the same page is more important than being right. Leadership in the home looks like service, empathy, and clarity. Small daily disciplines shape your legacy.   Connect with Thomas: Website: SayDoAchieve.com Instagram: @thomasblackwellspeak Book: The Liberty of Our Language Revealed — Available on Amazon   Favorite Quote from the Episode: “Your language creates your world.

Hey guys hey! In this episode of Adulting with Autism, we're talking all things autistic life coaching, transitions, and empowerment with the amazing Doug Blecher, founder of Autism Personal Coach. Doug joins us to share how his Autistic-led coaching team helps teens and adults navigate real-world challenges like independence, executive functioning, sensory overwhelm, career exploration, and more—without the pressure to “fit in” to neurotypical expectations.

In this episode of Marriage Fit, we dive into what it really takes to raise healthy and happy kids. Parenting today comes with unique challenges—screen time battles, busy schedules, and the constant temptation of unhealthy food choices. But the good news? Small, intentional habits can create a lifelong foundation for your kids' well-being. We break down six key strategies that make a difference in your child's physical and mental health while strengthening your family bond. 1. Be the Example: Stay Healthy and Active Yourself Kids don't just listen to what we say—they mimic what we do. If you prioritize your health, they're more likely to follow suit. We discuss: The power of leading by example through daily exercise and balanced nutrition. Simple ways to integrate fitness into family life without it feeling like a chore. A personal story of how our kids have been inspired by our health habits. 2. Give Them Good Options: Protein, Something They Love, and Something They Need Making mealtime stress-free while ensuring kids get proper nutrition is key. Our approach: Every plate should include protein, something they love, and something they need (like veggies!). How to make healthy eating fun—without forcing it. Easy, kid-friendly meals that check all the nutritional boxes. 3. Play with Them & Include Them in Your Workouts Exercise should be fun, not a punishment. We cover: How movement strengthens family bonds and builds lifelong habits. Creative ways to incorporate kids into workouts (from dance parties to obstacle courses). The importance of making movement a daily, natural part of life. 4. Create a Healthy Relationship with Eating and Exercising Avoiding guilt and shame around food and fitness is critical for kids' self-esteem. We discuss: How to use positive language around food and movement. The importance of teaching kids to listen to their bodies. Why emphasizing progress over perfection builds confidence. 5. Reduce Screen Time, Blue Light, and Encourage Outdoor Activity Too much screen time? You're not alone. We share: How blue light impacts sleep and stress levels. Strategies to cut back on screens while increasing outdoor play. Family-friendly activities that make getting outside exciting again. 6. Involve Your Child in the Process: Grocery Shopping, Cooking, and Movement Choices When kids feel ownership over their health, they're more likely to embrace it. We cover: Why bringing kids to the grocery store helps them make better food choices. Simple ways to get them involved in meal prep. How letting them choose family workouts boosts engagement and consistency. Final Thoughts: Creating a healthy and happy environment for kids is a long-term investment—but it doesn't have to be overwhelming. Small, consistent actions add up over time. The best part? You'll be growing stronger as a family in the process. What's one habit you'll start implementing today?

It's not if you will get stuck in life, it's when. And it's what you do when you're stuck or in a rut that determines how soon you come out of it and how you will work through issues in your future. Family First: Building a Support System for Growth Feeling stuck often comes from trying to do everything alone. Prioritizing family helps create a strong support system that encourages growth and provides motivation. We'll discuss strategies for leaning on your family to stay accountable while working on personal goals. Faith and Trusting the Process When you're stuck, it's easy to lose trust in the process. Faith can help anchor you in difficult times, providing the patience to keep moving forward. We'll talk about how to let go of guilt and trust that growth comes with time, even when you don't see immediate results. Fitness as a Metaphor for Commitment to Growth In fitness, results take time, effort, and consistency. The same goes for personal growth. We'll show how adopting the discipline from fitness can help you break through plateaus in other areas of life, whether it's work, relationships, or self-development. Financial Freedom: Planning for Future Growth Often, financial stress keeps people feeling stuck. We'll explore how a growth mindset can help you break out of financial stagnation by focusing on long-term planning, learning from mistakes, and taking small steps toward financial freedom, without being weighed down by guilt. Breaking Free from Guilt and Shame Guilt and shame can be paralyzing, making you feel trapped in past mistakes. We'll share strategies for recognizing and releasing these emotions, so you can move forward with confidence and embrace growth in all areas of your life. This episode is designed to help you break free from the feeling of being stuck and show you how to shift your mindset for personal and collective growth.

Introduction Opening Hook: Discuss how common it is to feel intimidated when walking into a gym, especially for newcomers or those returning after a long break. Goal of Episode: Help listeners understand and overcome “gymtimidation” by breaking down its causes, sharing practical tips, and empowering them to build confidence in any fitness space. Why This Matters: When people feel intimidated, it can prevent them from starting or staying consistent with their fitness journey. Conquering these feelings is the first step toward lasting health and wellness. Segment 1: What Is “Gymtimidation” and Why Does It Happen? Define Gymtimidation: Explain that “gymtimidation” is the anxiety or intimidation people feel in a gym setting, often due to fear of judgment, unfamiliarity with equipment, or lack of experience. Common Causes: Fear of Judgment: Worried others are watching or judging your form, appearance, or fitness level. Equipment Overwhelm: Not knowing how to use machines or weights properly. Self-Comparison: Feeling insecure next to more experienced or fitter gym-goers. Personal Stories: Briefly share any personal experiences with gymtimidation (or examples) to make the topic relatable. Segment 2: Strategies to Conquer Gymtimidation 1. Start with a Plan Explanation: Having a plan eliminates wandering and builds confidence because you know what exercises to do and in what order. How to Implement: Suggest options like following an app, finding a workout plan online, or working with a trainer to build a routine. 2. Choose the Right Gym Environment Explanation: Different gyms have different vibes. Finding one that matches your comfort level (e.g., beginner-friendly, women-only spaces, etc.) can make a big difference. How to Implement: Research gyms in your area, take advantage of trial memberships, or even try virtual workouts to ease in. 3. Focus on Small Goals Over Big Transformations Explanation: Setting small, achievable goals (e.g., getting through a full workout, learning one new machine) helps build momentum and confidence. How to Implement: Share examples of small wins that listeners can aim for, like increasing weight on a lift or completing a full workout with proper form. 4. Go with a Friend or Accountability Partner Explanation: Having a gym buddy can make workouts more enjoyable and reduce intimidation. They can provide support, and having someone familiar around can ease nerves. How to Implement: Offer tips for finding a workout partner (friends, family, or through social media) or joining group classes where there's a sense of community. 5. Remember That No One's Really Watching Explanation: Most people at the gym are focused on their own workouts, not on what others are doing. This is a big mindset shift that can help reduce anxiety. How to Implement: Suggest practicing this mindset shift by observing others' focus in the gym or even trying headphones or mindfulness techniques to stay grounded. Segment 3: Turning Gym Anxiety into Gym Confidence Reframe the Gym as a Learning Opportunity: See each workout as a chance to learn and grow, regardless of where you are in your fitness journey. Take Advantage of Resources: Most gyms offer orientation sessions or have trainers available to help with equipment. Encourage listeners to ask questions—they're often surprised at how approachable gym staff can be. Celebrate Progress, Not Perfection: Reinforce that fitness is about progress over time, not immediate results. Even small improvements are wins! Listener Challenge Challenge of the Week: Encourage listeners to step outside their comfort zone—whether it's trying one new piece of equipment, asking for a trainer's help, or going to the gym during a busier time. Share Their Experience: Ask listeners to share their progress or “firsts” on social media and tag the podcast, or message in with their experiences of conquering gymtimidation. Conclusion Recap of Key Points: Reiterate that gymtimidation is common, but manageable with the right mindset and tools. Final Encouragement: Empower listeners to see the gym as a space for growth, not judgment, and to embrace their fitness journey at their own pace.

Welcome to another myth-busting episode of Marriage Fit! Today, we're tackling a common misconception: the idea that sweating equals fat loss. So many people believe that the more they sweat, the more fat they burn. But we're here to set the record straight and dive into the real science of effective fat burning.   In this episode, we break down: Why Sweating Doesn't Equal Fat Loss: Sweating is simply your body's way of cooling down. While it might make you feel like you've had a great workout, it's not a sign of actual fat burning. We'll explain what sweating really means and why it's often confused with burning fat. Top 5 Proven Ways to Burn Fat: We'll cover the key strategies that truly help with fat loss, including: Creating a Caloric Deficit: It's all about calories in vs. calories out. We'll share tips for finding a sustainable way to reduce calories. Prioritizing Strength Training: Muscle burns calories even at rest! Discover how to make strength training your fat-burning ally. Incorporating HIIT Workouts: Get your heart rate up with high-intensity intervals and enjoy the calorie burn even after you're done. Maintaining Balanced Nutrition with High Protein: Protein isn't just for muscle; it's essential for fat loss, too. Learn how to boost your intake and stay satiated. Getting Enough Rest & Managing Stress: Quality sleep and lower stress are essential for balancing hormones and avoiding fat storage. Putting It All Together: We'll wrap up with a holistic approach that combines these five strategies. Plus, we'll address common mistakes like excessive cardio or extreme calorie restriction that can make fat loss even harder.   Listener Challenge: Track your sleep, calorie intake, and workouts over the next week. Make small adjustments to see how these science-backed strategies work for you. Notice how you feel before and after implementing each tip, and don't be afraid to reflect on what's working best. We hope this episode helps you stay focused on sustainable changes rather than quick fixes. True fat loss is all about consistency, balance, and smart choices that you can maintain long-term.   Connect With Us: Follow us on Instagram @MarriageFitPodcast Join our Facebook community, SISU Fit, for more fitness tips and support.

When you step into the operating room, every decision carries weight, but what happens when that weight becomes too much? I had the opportunity to sit down with Bryan Sagray,  former surgeon who traded his scalpel for the chance to rewire minds as a personal coach for your brain.  Together, we explore the intricate dance of high performance—how the precision and focus honed in surgery can be redirected to cultivate mindfulness, wellness, and a life lived with intention.Burnout doesn't knock; it barges in, unannounced and unwelcome, often leaving devastation in its wake. Bryan and I share personal tales of confronting this silent adversary, and the metamorphosis it spurred within us. We discuss the restructuring of identity post-burnout, the restorative power of mentorship, and how personal loss reframes our perception of time and priorities. We unravel the support systems that act as our lifelines, guiding us back to authenticity when the path seems lost.To cap off our profound journey, we examine the symbiotic relationship between what we absorb daily and what we project into the world. The brain's astonishing adaptability and the potential for positive change underscore our narrative, advocating for intentional habit shifts that lead to a more optimistic and healthy existence. Disentangling from the digital tangle to reconnect with nature emerges as a salient theme, while we also discuss the art of crafting an authentic personal brand—showcasing how vulnerability and truth on platforms like LinkedIn can foster deep connections and open doors to new opportunities.Join us for a conversation that promises to challenge, inspire, and perhaps rewire the way you approach your own high-performance journey.LinkedIn Profile:https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryan-sagray-dpm-facfas/LinkedIn Business Page:https://www.linkedin.com/company/dr-bryan-sagray-llc/?viewAsMember=trueLanding Page for Booking Free Consults:https://stan.store/DrBryanSagrayA rising tide raises all ships, and I invite you along on this journey to Evoke Greatness!Check out my website: www.evokegreatness.comFollow me on: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonnie-linebarger-899b9a52/ https://www.instagram.com/evoke.greatness/

Life doesn't always start the way you think it should.  There are moments when you recognize something isn't right, someone is not right, and instinctually you know there is a better way to live life. You begin to form opinions, and then you meet people who share their lives and experiences only to be able to confirm that what you thought is true.......you can have a magnificent life, but certain things are required starting with doing the hard work....... Jose Bolanos is a Personal Coach, and Founder of Vuca Fit whose overall focus is helping entrepreneurs unravel the complexities of the human condition by doing a deep dive to solve challenges within oneself and fill the holes in the soul. Their focus incorporates the mind, body, spirit, and business.  On the show today, Jose and Patrick make no secret about how they know one another. (They're brothers).  They do a deep plunge into the benefits of cold baths, unraveling family traumas, and frustrations most people face in life, especially entrepreneurs.     What You'll Learn:    Why it's important to set intentions in your life starting within yourself  The practice of Yoga and how you can apply this process to every facet of your life A funny story Jose shares about one team-building event involving Yoga with mostly men The importance of building culture  One practice Jose breaks down that helps him set his intentions  Why Jose has decided to climb volcanoes and how this process is part of a bigger picture How having clarity is important for you to succeed in your life and your business  One way to give you a path to controlling who you become  Why it's important to build yourself up Jose shares his mission for entrepreneurs What a shallow life is and how to combat living one for the rest of your time here Questions to ask yourself when you get triggered  The power of therapy and how to find the right therapist for you Life abroad versus living in the US and why you have no choice but to be a part of the game Where to find good food in Europe and why England is not it   Favorite Quote:    "He who has a clear why can endure any how." - Jose Bolanos   How to Connect with Jose:    VucaFit Jose's IG Vuca Fit IG   How To Get Involved: Patrick Bolanos is a serial entrepreneur, business owner, and CEO of Trailer King Builders in Houston, Texas. He was raised in Nicaragua, exposed to extreme poverty, and also had the fortune of being exposed to life in the United States traveling back and forth to both countries.  After college, Patrick's career took him into the corporate world of banking where he learned the important lessons of understanding what you're selling and why it's important to believe in it.  Back in December of 2017, Patrick was fired from his job as a CFO for a Restaurant Group.  With only $500 to his name, rent due, his wife, 3 children at home, and one on the way, he was forced to figure out how to pull his family out of this financial abyss that was strangling his life.

Standing side by side with the Pease brothers, Kyle and Brent, whose story of resilience and unity in the face of cerebral palsy has reshaped the contours of our spirits, we were reminded that the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend is more than just a race; it's a vibrant celebration of human potential. Within this episode, we're sharing the heart-tugging narratives of those who traversed the marathon's magical miles, including the emotional encounters with participants like William, who shed over 200 pounds to cross the finish line, and Glenn who returned to running post-brain surgery. The power of these stories lies not just in the triumphs, but in the transformative journeys that led each runner to the starting line.Weather may have rolled in with a plan of its own, but the runDisney community's spirit remained unshakable. We recount how a rainy half marathon day, reminiscent of a past half marathon's cancellation, became a testament to the unyielding support amongst runners, volunteers, and staff. The joyous defiance against the elements shone through as we reminisced about impromptu rain dances and finish line celebrations. We share a little behind-the-scenes look at weather contingencies, revealing the delicate balance of safety and sentiment that guides such challenging decisions.Wrapping up our marathon recap, laughter bubbles to the surface as we recount the light-hearted moments that punctuate the intensity of race weekends. From Carissa's punchy commentary that left an imprint of humor on the runners, to the playful naming of the anthem-singing Dapper Dans, we're embracing the full spectrum of marathon weekend experiences. Join us as we weave through the shared laughter, the collective focus, and the individual feats that make the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend an event where every step tells a story.Support the showLet Registered Dietitian Carissa Galloway lead you through a science-backed plan to transform the way you think about your diet.Visit www.GallowayCourse.com and use the code PODCAST at checkout for a great discount!Become a 321 Go! supporter.

Our conversation with them isn't just about athletic prowess; it's a profound narrative of inclusion, family bonds, and the tireless pursuit of breaking down barriers.

Adam Lane Smith is “The Attachment Specialist”, helping people heal, connect, and build relationships. Leveraging years of professional experience as a licensed psychotherapist, he has honed his craft as a highly sought-after Attachment Specialist and personal coach. He has helped people from a variety of lifestyles, from blue collar families with marital troubles to millionaire CEOs looking for dating help, or anyone looking to fix their dating life, marriage, or overall health of all relationships.  In this episode, Larry Hagner and guest Adam Lane Smith discuss the topic of attachment and its impact on relationships and marriages. They delve into their personal backgrounds and how their upbringing shaped their attachment styles. They also highlight the prevalence of attachment issues in today's society, with research showing that a significant majority of adults in America struggle with attachment. Attachment shapes our relationships in profound ways. It is the way we connect with other human beings, giving and receiving love. Our attachment style is learned from our caregivers, primarily our parents, and it forms the foundation for how we relate to others throughout our lives. Adam Lane Smith further explains that attachment issues can stem from various factors, including neglect, abuse, absent parents, or inconsistent caregiving. When children experience these adverse circumstances, their brains often internalize the belief that something is wrong with them or with others. This belief shapes their attachment style and influences how they connect with others. Recognizing and understanding our attachment style is crucial for personal growth and building healthier relationships. Therapy and self-reflection can help individuals address and heal from attachment wounds. By gaining insight into our attachment patterns, we can work towards developing more secure and fulfilling connections with others. www.thedadedge.com/450 www.thedadedge.com/alliance  www.adamlanesmith.com/courses
