Episode Notes: As performers we often assume that getting simple means going backward. What if we thought about it differently? What if what's needed is an update to a simpler process? In this episode we dive into that concept from a bunch of different perspectives.

Episode Notes: What happens when we get in over our head? Or when our brain is screaming at us because we don't know when the drop off is coming? In this episode, we discuss how sometimes wading in or dipping a toe in is all we need to get moving. And that the movement is where the magic happens.

Episode Notes: We welcome back our former co-host, performance coach and mental health professional, John Shirkey. John and I dive into who we might become when we allow ourselves to forget our past. Or when we chose to focus our attention on the little moments rather than the big or special ones. We then discuss how so many of the structures in our life support or create a benefit in order to drive those behaviors. John draws out this amazing idea of "yes, and." We become better when we realize that two things can and should be true.

Episode Notes: Courtney returns to the podcast to reflect on her first year in coaching, one that brought a state title back to Billings Senior High Volleyball for the first time since 2014. What an epic title run it was! We dive into what she learned, what they plan to do next and the values they tried to create in a short period of time. In short, we talk about why their foundation is built on "What we do matters," and why it matters every day in every way.

Episode Notes: Orlando Ponce of Ponce Trained Wrestling joins us to discuss the ways they are helping grow the sport of wrestling. He tells us how he took an unexpected path to wrestling and how coaches and siblings showed him what was possible. We then highlight how they have gotten creative about attacking the problem at the source, developing a curriculum for educators to follow to teach wrestling and then using that curriculum for their in-person camps for elementary students. There are some awesome challenges in this episode that can help us think about how to match our skills, our passion and what's possible.
