You all loved this conversation in the fall so we are kicking off our Wider Lens 2026 with a rerelease of this awesome interview. Jerry Flowers is bringing encouragement about the patterns of your life and posture of your heart as we talk through his new book Heart Rehab: Finding the You God Created You to Be. Lean into the discomfort, create disciplines for preparedness, and surrender your need for control in order to step into your true calling as a son or daughter of the Lord Almighty. He loves you, he is for you, and we can trust him with our hearts! Episode Highlights: Stop blaming everyone else. Take time for self reflection. If we invite God in, He can use all seasons for our good and growth. Intimacy with the Lord allows us to grow into the people God created us to be. Discipline and preparation go hand in hand. The more disciplined you are, the more prepared you are for what God has next. Culture influences us to mislabel our fears, thoughts and anxieties. Make sure you are labeling them correctly. Quotes from Today's Episode: I recognize many times, our placement in life isn't just because of problems, it's because of patterns. -Jerry Flowers Patterns reveal character. -Jerry Flowers Patterns are one of the ushers to certain seasons. -Jerry Flowers We want to blame the enemy, but we have to look at ourselves too. -Jerry Flowers Be aware of the enemy, for sure. But I think sometimes that keeps us from taking responsibility for our part. -Jerry Flowers It may not make sense right then, but later it'll make sense. -Jerry Flowers I see things that God put me through, before we got married, that helped me when I got married. -Dr. Kim We want to be whole enough where the Lord can pour into us and we can pour back out.- Jerry Flowers If you want results, you lean into discomfort.- Jerry Flowers What changed for me is realizing that my mind can lie to me. -Jerry Flowers A Wider Lens: Questions for Self Reflection Look at your daily life and identify one unhealthy pattern you've grown comfortable with. What one discipline could you start practicing to combat this pattern and prepare for what God has next? Identify an area of your life you haven't fully surrendered to the Lord. Choose a Scripture verse to meditate on as you commit to trusting Him completely.

Episode 3276: Dr. Neal Malik dispels the long-held myth that coffee and tea are dehydrating, explaining that these beverages actually contribute to daily fluid intake.

In this episode, Travis and Eric dive into a rapid-fire round of thought-provoking quotes — from business legends like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Alex Hormozi, Thomas Sowell, and Grant Cardone. Each quote sparks a deeper conversation about work ethic, competition, mastery, and what it really means to “make money.” Expect sharp insights, playful banter, and surprisingly practical takeaways that'll change how you think about success, side hustles, and even home ownership. On this episode we talk about: Why “40 hours a week” isn't enough to change your life The balance between competition and collaboration Why most “solutions” are really trade-offs in disguise How to master new skills in 20 focused hours Why success often comes down to sheer reps and resilience Whether your house is actually an asset How luck, effort, and timing fuel long-term success Top 3 Takeaways 1. Mastery comes from volume — do enough reps that failure becomes unreasonable.2. Buying a house can be smart, but it's not always the golden ticket to wealth.3. There's no one formula for success — just honest trade-offs and relentless effort. Notable Quotes * “Nobody ever changed the world on 40 hours a week.” – Elon Musk* “You can get good enough at almost anything in 20 hours; most people just never start.” – Josh Kaufman* “Do enough reps that it's unreasonable for you to fail.” – Alex Hormozi* “Houses are assets for asses.” – Grant Cardone (and why Travis disagrees) Connect with Travis Chappell: * LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell* Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/traviscchappell* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell* Website: https://travischappell.com Travis Makes Money is powered by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

"The body does still absorb and use the majority of the liquid consumed via coffee and tea." "The more often coffee and tea are consumed, the less likely someone will experience dehydration."

Today's guest is Paul Cater. Paul is a veteran strength and conditioning coach with over 25 years of experience spanning professional baseball, collegiate athletics, and high-performance team environments. Paul is known for blending traditional strength training with rhythm, timing, gravity, and a deeply relational, art-driven approach to coaching. His work challenges purely formulaic or data-driven models and puts the live training session back at the center of athlete development. In an era where training is increasingly automated, optimized, and reduced to dashboards and numbers, it's easy to lose the human element that actually drives performance. This conversation explores how rhythm, feel, load, and coaching presence shape not just outputs, but adaptability, resilience, and long-term athletic growth. If you've ever felt that “something is missing” in modern training environments, this episode speaks directly to that gap. In this episode, Paul and I explore training as a live performance rather than a static program. We discuss using early isometric and axial loading as a readiness anchor, how downbeat rhythm and eccentric timing drive better outputs, and why chasing numbers too aggressively can undermine real performance. We dive into music, movement, art, and coaching intuition, and how creating alive, rhythmic sessions builds stronger athletes, and better coaches, without relying solely on rigid protocols or excessive monitoring.

Use uneven terrain and elevation to naturally regulate intensity instead of forcing outputs. Let the environment create variability rather than programming it artificially. Periodically remove mirrors, clocks, and screens to reconnect athletes with internal feedback. 6:00 – The role of community in training Training outcomes improve when athletes feel socially anchored. Design sessions where athletes work together rather than in isolation. Use shared challenges to build collective buy-in and accountability. View community as a performance multiplier, not a soft add-on. 12:15 – Performance and the observer effect Athletes change behavior when they know they are being measured. Use testing sparingly to avoid distorting natural movement. Train without constant feedback to preserve authentic effort. Recognize when measurement helps clarity and when it creates tension. 23:27 – Shifting training protocols Protocols should evolve with the athlete, not remain fixed. Regularly reassess whether a method still serves the athlete's needs. Avoid loyalty to systems that no longer produce adaptation. Let context, stress, and readiness guide training decisions. 32:32 – Balancing data and intuition Numbers inform decisions, but intuition completes them. Use data as a reference point, not the final authority. Trust experienced pattern recognition when data feels incomplete. Teach younger coaches how to observe, not just measure. 42:14 – Efficacy of isometric training Isometrics offer clarity, control, and nervous system regulation. Use isometrics to teach position awareness and intent. Apply them during deloads or recovery periods. Emphasize quality of tension rather than maximal force. 47:23 – Five-minute wonders Short, focused training can still drive adaptation. Use brief sessions to maintain rhythm during busy schedules. Prioritize intent and execution over duration. Stack small doses consistently rather than chasing long sessions. 53:28 – The art of adaptation Adaptation is individual, nonlinear, and context dependent. Avoid expecting identical outcomes from identical programs. Adjust based on response, not expectation. Respect that progress can look quiet before it looks obvious. 57:44 – Embracing the subconscious Much of performance operates below conscious control. Reduce over-cueing to allow automatic movement to emerge. Trust repetition and environment to shape behavior. Coach less, observe more. 1:28:06 – A playlist for performance Music influences emotional and physical rhythm. Use music intentionally to shape session tone. Match tempo to desired movement qualities. Allow athletes some ownership over the training atmosphere. Quotes from Paul Cater “Training is as much about remembering what we are as it is about building what we want to become.” “The moment measurement changes behavior, you have to question what you are actually training.” “Community is not separate from performance. It is performance.” “Coaching is an art because people are not repeatable systems.” “Isometrics give you honesty. There's nowhere to hide.” “Data can guide you, but it cannot feel the athlete.” “Adaptation does not care about your program, only your response.” “Sometimes the best thing you can do as a coach is stop talking.” About Paul Cater Paul Cater is a veteran strength and conditioning coach with over 25 years of experience working across professional baseball, collegiate athletics, tactical populations, and high-performance team sport environments. He has served in leadership and performance roles with organizations including Major League Baseball, NCAA programs, and private high-performance facilities, and is known for his ability to blend high-intensity strength training with rhythm, coordination, and ecological skill development. Paul's coaching philosophy emphasizes gravity, timing, and rhythm as foundational drivers of athletic performance. Rather than relying solely on rigid programming or isolated testing, his sessions are built around early exposure to meaningful load, isometric and inertial work, and rhythmic constraints that reveal readiness, alignment, and intent in real time. His work integrates elements of sprint mechanics, change of direction, elastic strength, and movement artistry to create training environments that are both physically effective and psychologically engaging. Currently working in a collegiate performance setting, Paul is deeply interested in coaching as a live, relational craft; treating each session as a performance that develops not just outputs, but awareness, adaptability, and ownership in athletes. His approach bridges traditional strength training with concepts from sport, art, music, and survival movement, offering a perspective that challenges purely automated or data-driven models of performance.
Josh Brake shares metaphors and other ethical considerations regarding AI on Episode 607 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode “When you’re moving fast, it’s really easy to do things unreflectively and to make a poor decision without even realizing it.” -Josh Brake “The special thing about bicycles, at least in their non-electronic versions, is that they’re totally human-powered. So it’s all based on the energy that you put in, and it’s just transforming that energy, to make you more efficient and be able to move faster.” -Josh Brake “When you have something like an E bike, that augmentation can be used in a variety of different ways, so it can be used to actually extend your capacity.” -Josh Brake “It’s really this question about what’s the intention that you’re bringing to the technology when you come to the tool, what are the questions that you’re asking? And fundamentally, it’s a question of purpose and intention. Why are you using this?” -Josh Brake Resources An E-Bike for the Mind: E-Bikes and What They Can Teach Us About AI, by Josh Brake I Grew Up Oblivious About Grades. It Ruined Me.

[THE DISTINCTIVE EDGE CLIENT CASE STUDY] What does it look like to move from "I'll join next year" to a full-body gut yes—and then watch your business immediately start to click? In this case study-style episode, I sit down with Deb Driscoll, founder of The Be Her Collective, whose North Star is "reminding women just how frickin' magical they are." Deb supports women to reclaim their intuitive wisdom, remember who they are, and step into heroine status—and reminded us all that intuition + strategy is a lethal combo when you finally give yourself permission to be fully seen. Deb shares the honest behind-the-scenes of what it felt like to invest (hello, excitement + nausea), how old scarcity stories almost kept her out, and why she decided TDE would be the "pathway, full stop." Then we get into what actually changed: the framework, the messaging clarity, and the (surprise!) sales support Deb didn't realize she needed—especially the power of private invites to enroll clients without a big launch. If you've ever felt like your work feels "too intangible" to explain clearly… or you're tired of spinning in circles trying five different strategies at once… this one will hit. In this episode, we cover: Why Deb joined The Distinctive Edge (TDE) and what made it feel like "the risk that has reward" The difference between a true "not now" and a scarcity-based "no" How Deb stopped the "I know so much" expert spiral by becoming a beginner again (TDE school energy) The real key to making a "vague" or intuitive transformation feel tangible and clear in your messaging Why your signature framework can become your one message, one mission across offers What made the material reviews so powerful (and why "knowing the why" matters) How Deb used private invites to start 2026 with clients already enrolled (without a traditional launch) The underrated ROI: community, connection, and not building your business alone Quotes you'll remember "This feels risky, but this is the risk that has reward." "I unsubscribed to so many people… I'm listening to myself, and I'm listening to Meg." "I start 2026 not just as a business owner. I'm a woman on a mission."

[THE DISTINCTIVE EDGE CLIENT CASE STUDY] In this episode, Meg sits down with Leah Bryant, Podcast Growth Strategist and Coach, to talk about how clarifying her messaging—and fully owning her distinctive edge—helped her book multiple podcast audits and full podcast launches in a matter of weeks. Leah shares the honest reality of being five years into business, having already experienced success, and still realizing something was missing. After transitioning from an agency model to a solo business, Leah knew she was good at what she did—but wasn't clearly articulating why she was different in a saturated market. Inside this conversation, Leah breaks down how leaning into her background as a former fraud investigator (yes, really) changed everything—from her confidence to her conversions. If you've ever thought, "I know I'm good at what I do, but my message isn't landing," this episode is for you. In this episode, we cover: Why Leah almost didn't invest—and what helped her make a grounded, confident yes How podcast SEO can turn a show into an actual revenue-generating asset The mistake most podcasters make when trying to grow (and why tips alone don't convert anymore) How Leah transitioned from an agency voice to owning her voice as the brand Why owning your background and pattern-recognition skills builds instant trust What shifted when Leah stopped "sounding like everyone else" and showed more personality How clarity in messaging led to booked audits, paid launches, and inbound clients Why confidence—not just strategy—is the real multiplier in sales Quotes you'll hear echoed: "I knew I was good at what I did—I just wasn't owning it." "I was burned before, and I didn't want another program collecting dust." "Once I started being myself, everything shifted."
