    Mastering the Empty Mile

    In today’s episode, I break down how daily practice shapes long-term success and why consistent behavior outperforms occasional pushes. I explain the human experience through time, intention, and the lessons our bodies are built to teach us. I share how separating each day into non-negotiable and circumstantial behavior helps me stay aligned with my goals, reduce resistance, and avoid doubling down on the habits that hold me back. I talk about using uncertainty as fuel, managing ego-driven reactions, and building a life rooted in recovery, health, family, faith, and purposeful action. It’s a simple framework that turns small commitments into exponential results.

    In today’s episode, I sit down with James Maslow and UFC Hall of Famer Forrest Griffin, a former Light Heavyweight Champion whose career helped bring the sport into the mainstream. We cover the grind behind his rise, the standards he now upholds as the UFC’s Vice President of Athlete Development, and why winning still hits harder than any paycheck. Forrest opens up about work identity, product integrity, and the value of surrounding yourself with people who stay steady when things get chaotic. James and I also break down leadership, teachability, and the pressure that comes with building teams that can thrive under real responsibility.

    In today’s episode, I sit down with Kaye Doran, a women’s leadership coach, shamanic healer, and creator of Inner Expressions, whose work centers on helping women rise from within. We explore the moments that pushed me toward a spiritual shift long before I lost everything, including the warning signs I ignored, the night my wife confronted me, and the painful honesty that forced me to rebuild my life with new values and daily practices. Kaye brings her own perspective on energy and inner guidance, setting the stage for a conversation about what happens when you stop interfering with who you already are and choose to live in alignment.
