1 month into the new year... now what?!
New Years resolution episodes are a plenty on podcasts everywhere in January... in fact we have made them before ourselves.
So how about an episode dedicated to people already giving up and throwing in the towel on their 2025 goals and dreams after 30 days. The statistics are not optimistic.
Maybe we need to change the language from resolution to commitment to get the r...

The 2024 Presidential Election is here…
And it ‘feels’ as if our country is as divided as ever between our two candidates, former President, Donald J. Trump (R) and current Vice President, Kamala Harris (D).
Much of the news coverage and social media posts are largely ‘Anti’ one candidate over another rather than each side promoting what they stand for and why we should consider giving them our vote.
Today, four members ...
Jack-O-Lanterns, ghosts, goblins, skulls, spiders, cobwebs and horror movies remind most of us of Halloween along with fun costumes, bags of candy and spooky scary decorations.

As someone who struggles with a quick temper and anger, this episode was very personal for coach Chris.
While we tend to be on our best behavior in public and at work, often when at home with the people we love the most, we can resort to explosive anger, yelling, cursing, and using harsh, hurtful words.
Basically, our most cherished people in the world, our children and spouses, see us at our worst.
