  • Visualization: A Simple Tool to Show Up Fully PH321
    I first learned visualization as a young gymnast, used it in CrossFit, and now I’m finding it just as powerful in everyday life.  In this week’s episode, I share how this simple tool can help you show up with more confidence, presence, and joy—no matter what challenge you’re facing.

  • Legends of the CrossFit Games PH320
    In this special episode, I’m sharing a compilation of some of my favorite conversations with five of the most decorated athletes in CrossFit Games history: Rich Froning, Tia-Clair Toomey, Mat Fraser, Katrin Davidsdottir, and Annie Thorisdottir. These episodes span the past ten years of the podcast—starting with my very first recording ever, with Rich Froning. It’s been incredible to reflect on how much the show has evolved, and even more powerful to revisit the insights these champions shared. We talk about their mindset towards competition and pressure: what drove them to the top of the sport, what continues to fuel their training, and the habits behind their success. Whether you’ve been following the podcast from the beginning or just tuning in, I hope you enjoy this look back at some of the most inspiring conversations I’ve had with the Fittest on Earth.

  • Finding Purpose Beyond the Podium: My Wake-up Call PH319
    I’m sharing a personal story from one of the most challenging seasons of my life—balancing the intense demands of medical school with training for the CrossFit Games, all while navigating grief and major life transitions. A pivotal conversation with my mom forced me to pause and ask a question I had never truly considered: Why was I doing all of this? What followed was a powerful realization about the role of purpose in sustaining us through life’s most difficult moments. I hope this reflection encourages you to examine your own "why"—and to rediscover meaning in the things that matter most.
