In this episode, I’m hanging out with Jacob Showers, founder of AION Training and the most energetic and genuine person in any room. Jacob shares how his journey went from selling hoodies in college to coaching at various gyms, launching a virtual running club, and eventually creating AION, a community built on energy, intentionality, and making life as awesome as possible.

We talk about what it really takes to grow a movement; from taking killer photos and connecting with people daily to building a culture that keeps the right people coming back. Jacob shares his perspective about the balance between discipline and fun, the value of saying what’s on your mind, and why he doesn’t believe in limiting yourself, ever.

This conversation is part story, part mindset shift, and full of ideas on how to create a life (and community) that’s worth showing up for every day.

In this episode, I’m recording outside for the first time (!!) and diving into something relevant to my life lately: connection and community.

Here’s some key points:

• Why I’ve always felt like a bit of an outsider and how that’s shaped my need for meaningful connection

• How putting yourself in the right rooms changes everything

• The importance of being where your desired behavior is the norm

• Learning to stop forcing your way into spaces you’re not wanted

• Practical tips for making friends as an adult (without pretending to be someone you’re not)

• Why sharing your goals out loud can unlock powerful relationships, accountability, and purpose

If you’ve been trying to find your people or wondering how to build real connection, this episode will give you a starting point.

If something in this resonated with you, send it to a friend, share it on socials, or reach out and let me know what you’re working toward. I’d love to cheer you on!!

In this episode, I’m diving into one of the biggest mindset shifts I’ve had in a long time: why consistency always beats intensity. After completing the 75 Hard challenge, I realized that the slow, steady habits I built had a much bigger impact than any short burst of motivation ever has.

This is a concept we all know, but putting it into practice is where the real work begins.

Here’s what I get into:

• Why I chose to do 75 Hard instead of another 30-day challenge
• How starting slow helped me avoid burnout and actually finish
• The power of showing up every single day, even if it’s just for 10 minutes
• How reading just 10 pages a day helped me finish 3+ books I’d put off for a year
• Why aligning your habits with your identity is key to lasting change
• The importance of being in rooms where your ideal behavior is the norm

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of “all in, then burn out,” this episode is for you. I'm sharing what’s worked for me, what I’ve learned, and how I’m thinking about my goals moving forward.

Thanks for listening, and if this resonates, I’d love if you shared it with someone who needs to hear it.
