Podcast appearances and mentions of Terry Laughlin

Friends! Thanks for joining today's meeting,. Today's question is "Why Are We So Hard On Ourselves?" I say we, but I mean me.Life is not designed to hand us success or satisfaction, but rather to present us with challenges that make us grow. Terry Laughlin, founder of Total Immersion. This past summer was a major challenge for me and I thought I had become an expert at managing a crisis, with hip replacements, bankruptcy, heartbreak, tragedies, adopting via foster care, I thought I checked a lot of boxes for painful things. However, this summers challenge involved me spending 4 nights in the Intensive Care Unit at a Children's Hospital with my daughter. It was an expected surgery. I knew we would be in the intensive care unit. It was still terrifying. I still remember the beeping sounds.Good news, my daughter is healing and we got through it. We will likely go back for more surgeries but I will address that when the time comes. Here are 4 things I learned about that experience and I hope these things help you with any challenge you're facing now. 1. Give yourself credit for your wins. You have some wins, even if your win is that you're listening to podcasts and seeking information or ways to get better at managing your life.  You have one, so recognize it.2. You can't wait until you have everything figured out to feel confident. You have to do things that are uncomfortable and solve the problems that you need to solve along the way. This is life.  I am swimming in the unknown and I think this is the ocean I will continue to live in and that's ok. 3. You will make mistakes. Solve them, forgive yourself for errors and move forward. Repeat this cycle as needed, especially the forgiving yourself part.4. Don't be so hard on yourself, you're growing. You're a human being that is growing. Let's start today's meeting.

While the goal continues to be to bring the community together annually for an in-person conference, USA Triathlon received overwhelming feedback in a survey it sent a few months ago that many were still recovering and the cost of travel and lodging, as well as job professional and personal obligations, made a virtual conference the best option in 2022. The conference will also record all live sessions and provide attendees the option to view sessions on-demand on their own schedule for three months after the event.   Endurance Exchange is a joint effort to grow, inspire and support the multisport community by bringing industry stakeholders together to learn, share best practices, network and collaborate. The virtual format in 2022 will once again be hosted on Cvent and encourage participation from an even wider range of multisport constituents. The event is open not only to those involved in the business of triathlon, but also to multisport enthusiasts of all types — from beginners to competitive age-group athletes to Olympic and Paralympic hopefuls — as specific athlete-focused sessions will cater to all skill and experience levels. USA Triathlon is continuing to explore options for in-person educational, resource sharing and networking opportunities later in 2022 and will provide additional information as details are finalized.   New in 2022, this year's event will feature a content track specifically for multisport club leaders and administrators, and two options for the Athlete Insider track for novices or advanced athletes. Attendees can also expect additional engaging and interactive features, including live polling, in-session chats, in-session surveys, and prizes for the most engaged conference attendees.   Registration for the 2022 event is now open at enduranceexchange.com at early-bird pricing of $150 for the All-Access track and $45 for the Athlete Insider track. All registrants will also have the opportunity to purchase or extend their USA Triathlon annual memberships for 12 months at a discounted rate of $35. Attendees will have the opportunity to earn up to 10 coaching and/or race director CEUs.   Nearly 1,100 members of the multisport community attended virtually in 2021 to engage with more than 60 hours content across nearly 80 sessions and more than 130 speakers. Registrants should expect a similar volume of content in 2022's edition.   The conference sessions will run from approximately 10:30 a.m.-6 p.m. EST on Thursday, March 3 and Friday, March 4, and from approximately 10:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. EST on Saturday, March 5.   For the third year, USA Triathlon is offering a limited number of Together We Thrive Endurance Exchange scholarships to foster diversity and bring varied perspectives to the event. Interested candidates may apply here. Priority will be given to people of racial and ethnic minorities, women, and those who may not otherwise be able to attend due to financial constraints.   More information about session topics and speakers will be available at enduranceexchange.com as details are finalized.

If you LOVED this episode:You'll also love the conversations we had with Kamal Ravikant about reimagining life and learning to love himself.You can find Tim Ferriss at: Website | Instagram | The Tim Ferris Show podcastTim Ferriss has been a man on a mission, driven to deconstruct mastery and excellence, then share what he's learned. It began with his own relentless experimentation and documentation, which yielded #1 New York Times bestsellers The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Body, The 4-Hour Chef along with a series of other books. In more recent years, this yearning has led him to sit down with hundreds of elite performers, from a vast array of domains, on a quest to reveal what made them them. These conversations are shared weekly on Tim's award-winning podcast, The Tim Ferris Show. In today's Best Of conversation, we cover very different ground, and get very personal. Tim actually lost a number of people in the year before we sat down in the studio, turned 40 and found himself in a deeply contemplative and emotional space, thinking about who he is, how he wants to create the next 40 years of his life and what matters. When I sat down with Tim, he'd recently returned from an intensive 10-day silent meditation retreat. While gone, he lost yet another close friend. He was, in his own words, in an incredibly "porous" place, leading more from the heart than the head, which was a bit of a major turnaround for him.We spent time deconstructing Tim's 10-day silent meditation experience, his struggles and awakenings, how it compared to psychedelic experiences and how, barring one major saving grace, his retreat may have sent him spiraling into a very bad place. We also talked about his experience with death, his decision to append audio of his departed friend, Terry Laughlin, which was recorded by Terry's daughters in the hospital during his final days of life to the end of Tim's recent podcast interview with Terry. Tim also shared his decision to take the TED stage, switching last minute to talk about something deeply painful and personal, and what that meant to him, his lens on legacy work (and how it landed with his family, who didn't know what he'd be talking about). And, we explored Tim's awakening to a "softer" set of metrics to measure a life well-lived and his evolving definition of what it truly means to live a good life.My new book Sparked.Check out our offerings & partners: Tommy John: We fixed underwear.

You know how to run, I mean it's something you have done since childhood, is it not? You ran, played catch with friends, and ran some more and either you fell in love with the sport, and stuck to it, or you didn't love it and left it, only to start later on in adult life because maybe you thought it's a good way to stay healthy. Either way, you both have something in common... at one stage you realized you are sitting a lot. Too much as a matter of fact. Just count the hours you are actually sitting down. Actually I don't even want to do it because I realize with all the car journey's I sit many hours a week in my car.... If this is your situation, tell me, how do you make improvements? How do you know what your body is capable of? Good thing you joined me on this podcast, I will tell you how. But wait, is it ok, we dive right into the topic or do you first want to hear 5 minutes worth of ads, and " message from my sponsors"... no ads, no sponsors, just my passion for running, and 35 years of experience helping coaching and training runners improve their mindset, their attitude to become a better, stronger and smarter runner. Seriously, wouldn't it help making better decisions? In terms of your running, your attitude towards how you train, your discipline, determination... without becoming a hardcore "ain't no mountain high enough", no we leave that up to the pro's, Kilian Journet or others... what I want to say is, wont you one day feel proud looking back at your running career, and you know that in this part of your life, you dedicated a healthy amount of time and resources, and occasionally went for your best results. That's what this whole podcast is about. I have worked with many different runners over the past years Actually swimmers and runners, but the swimming is a story for another podcast, as I used to teach a really impressive approach which was invited by Terry Laughlin, great man, passed away some years ago sorry to say... but anyway, back to running, running attitude, your best run which I believe is still ahead of you... By training smart, or Smart training you will get more freedom, and skill for your running.

This week I am talking to Genii who lives in Upstate New York. I'm fascinated that she came to wild swimming as a bi product of teaching SUP Yoga - taking lessons when she was in her 60s, as she's never learned to swim properly. This was about added security for her SUP Yoga clients, but what she found was a whole community of open water swimmers and a series of events that she was actually quite good at. She may think that she has won medals because she is "lucky" that there aren't many other swimmers in her age group. I think she's getting out there and competing, which has nothing to do with luck, but hard work and talent. Her story is wonderful to listen to. Enjoy.   Things we talk about Swim Trek, Coney Island Brighton Beach Open Water Swimmers, Coney Island Polar Bears, Grimaldo's Mile, Lake Placid Betsy Owens (1 mile) and Terry Laughlin (2 miles),  Henley Club to Pub swim, Lake George 2.5k, 5k and 10k swims

Tim Ferris has been on a mission (http://tim.blog/podcast/) to deconstruct excellence his entire adult life. It began with his own relentless experimentation and documentation, which yielded #1 New York Times bestsellers The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Body and The 4-Hour Chef.In more recent years, this yearning has led him to sit down with hundreds of elite-performers and share the conversations on his award-winning podcast (https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-tim-ferriss-show/id863897795?mt=2). Tim and I recorded a Good Life Project conversation back in 2016 which you can listen to here (http://www.goodlifeproject.com/tim-ferriss/).Today, we go in a very different direction. After the loss a number of close friends and mentors and passing the 40-year mark, Tim found himself in a contemplative and emotional space. In this week's conversation, we drop into the deep end of the pool quickly. When we sat down, he'd recently returned from an intensive 10-day silent meditation retreat. While gone, he lost yet another close friend. He was, in his own words, in an incredibly "porous" place, leading more from the heart than the head, which is a bit of a major turnaround for him.We spent time deconstructing Tim's 10-day silent meditation experience, his struggles and awakenings and contrasted it with his earlier psychedelic experiences. We also talked about his experience with death, his decision to append audio of his most recently departed friend, Terry Laughlin, which was recorded by Terry's daughters in the hospital during his final days of life to the end of Tim's recent podcast interview with Terry (https://tim.blog/2017/10/29/terry-laughlin/).We explore why he "threw out" the TED talk he'd prepared minutes before stepping onto the stage and, instead, talk about something deeply painful and personal from the heart. And, we explored Tim's awakening to a "softer" set of metrics to measure a life well-lived and his evolving definition of what it truly means to live a good life.I'm so excited to share this final "Best Of" episode of 2018, as a powerful prompt to explore ways to be more intentional and proactive in the year that awaits us.Check out our offerings & partners: Fabletics: Get 2 leggings for only $24 ($99 value) by visiting fabletics.com/GOODLIFERing: Get up to $150 off a Ring of Security Kit when you go to ring.com/GOODLIFE.Kneipp: Get 15% off your first order by going to Kneipp.com and use promo code GOODLIFE at checkout.

Should we focus on strengths or weaknesses? While I'm a fan of the strenghsfinder tool I found myself struggling with this my context as a professional development coach/consultant. This podcast explores how I now understand developing weaknesses and performing from strengths.      StrenghtsFinder Tim Farris Podcast with Terry Laughlin

This week, we're bringing you Tim Ferriss like you've never heard him.Ferris has been a man on a mission, driven to deconstruct mastery and excellence, then share what he's learned. It began with his own relentless experimentation and documentation, which yielded #1 New York Times bestsellers The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Body and The 4-Hour Chef.In more recent years, though, this yearning has led him to sit down with hundreds of elite-performers, from a vast array of domains, on a quest to reveal what made them them. These conversations are shared weekly on Tim's award-winning podcast, The Tim Ferris Show. We recorded a Good Life Project conversation with Tim earlier this year, which you can listen to here.In today's conversation, we go in a very different direction. Tim actually lost a number of people this year, turned 40 and found himself in a deeply contemplative and emotional space, thinking about who he is, how he wants to create the next 40 years of his life and what matters. This all led him to seek out wisdom from many of the world's greatest thinkers and achievers, which he's condensed and edited into his latest book, Tribe of Mentors: Short Life Advice from the Best in the World.In this week's conversation, we drop into the deep end of the pool quickly. When we sat down with Tim, he'd recently returned from an intensive 10-day silent meditation retreat. While gone, he lost yet another close friend. He was, in his own words, in an incredibly "porous" place, leading more from the heart than the head, which is a bit of a major turnaround for him.We spent time deconstructing Tim's 10-day silent meditation experience, his struggles and awakenings, how it compared to psychedelic experiences and how, barring one major saving grace, his retreat may have sent him spiraling into a very bad place. We also talked about his experience with death, his decision to append audio of his most recently departed friend, Terry Laughlin, which was recorded by Terry's daughters in the hospital during his final days of life to the end of Tim's recent podcast interview with Terry. Tim also shared his decision to take the TED stage, switching last minute to talk about something deeply painful and personal, and what that meant to him, his lens on legacy work (and how it landed with his family, who didn't know what he'd be talking about). And, we explored Tim's awakening to a "softer" set of metrics to measure a life well-lived and his evolving definition of what it truly means to live a good life.Mentioned In This Episode:Tim's 2017 TED Talk: Why you should define your fears instead of your goalsTim's conversation with Terry LaughlinJack KornfieldTim's conversation with James FadimanTim's conversation with Dan Engle+--------------------------+Our Podcast Partners: ZipRecruiter: Post jobs for FREE, go to ZipRecruiter.com/good.ShipStation: Manage and ship your orders.

Hommage à Terry Laughlin le créateur de la méthode de nage total immersion. Cette méthode a changé ma vie. Pourquoi un biohacker devrait se mettre à nager.

This episode will forever have special meaning for me. While I didn't know it at the time, this ended up being the final long-form interview with Terry Laughlin (@TISWIM). Terry passed away from cancer complications on October 20, just two weeks after we recorded this interview.Terry was the founder of Total Immersion Swimming and co-author of Total Immersion: The Revolutionary Way To Swim Better, Faster, and Easier. He had a profound impact on me -- teaching me to overcome a lifelong fear of water and swimming (read all about it here). But more than that, he's been an inspiration for the way I've done anything since.Terry coached three college and two USA Swimming club teams from 1973 to 1988, improving each team dramatically. In that time, he developed 24 national champions at all strokes and distances -- the first national champions produced by four different teams.In 1989, Terry founded Total Immersion and turned his focus from working with young, accomplished swimmers to adults with little experience or skill (like me). But it's not just about swimming; Terry's elegant method of deconstruction and logical progression is the epitome of what I strive to do when I'm talking about learning any skill -- from investing to learning languages.It's with a heavy heart but much gratitude that I was able to interview Terry before he passed. Please enjoy, savor, and digest what Terry had to impart. And be sure to check out Terry's gift for listeners to this podcast: a free seven-day membership to the Total Immersion Academy online training center.***If you enjoy the podcast, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

Terry Laughlin founded Total Immersion at age 29 while he was considering a change of career. He coached kids since age 21 but he had no experience coaching adults until he held his first camp in 1989. The camp was a success and also personally fulfilling for Terry.  A business was born. Total Immersion led to his first book, also titled Total Immersion, camps, ebooks, and a fleet of Total Immersion certified coaches around the world. We talk about his progression over the years, his favorite Olympic swimmer, Tim Ferris, his suggestions for new swimmers, his articles about financial risk, and a lot more.

KeyWords: Swimming, Total Immersion, Water, Drills, Injury   We were very excited to get the chance to talk to the creator of Total Immersion swimming, Terry Laughlin, on the show today. An extra bonus was having one of the Master Coaches of Total Immersion, Susan Atkinson join us to add her experience learning TI, Teaching TI and her medical perspective on clients. Swimming is something that can open up traditional swim training but also provide comfort to pursue many other water based sports like surfing, diving, kite-boarding and Kayaking.

We chat with Terry Laughlin from Total Immersion. Terry  has developed a method of improving your swimming that has helped hundreds of thousands of swimmers and triathletes worldwide to swim smoother. He's an expert at helping people fix the weaknesses in their stroke so they can move naturally through the water with grace and ease. In our chat with Terry he talks about: How he improved the speed of swimmers in the ‘slow lane' to being much closer to that of the ‘fast lane' swimmers Using the feel of the water to increase your speed rather than thinking technically about the stroke The one thing you should focus on with your head position for more relaxed swimming
