  • Many know this ninja as the Steel Mace Flow dude. Some know him as the language and mindset coach. Very few know he's an obsessive Tigers fan. 

    I had an awesome chat with one of my mentors, coaches and friend, Jeffrey Ochs. I love J-O and his calm persona and quick wit. I took my Steel Mace Flow Level 1 Honours with him as my guide and fkn smashed it. He's got insight for days and I'm stoked to share this chat with ya. We got into a bunch of stuff.

  • Ian Gilligan creates profoundly resilient humans. 

    We get into it with another Enlifted pirate gangster colleague of mine. 

    I first learned of Ian by watching this ridiculous homie talking in an Irish accent on Instagram about all the ways we can use words to our advantage. I later learned this homie was an American and one of the top Enlifted coaches in the field. Ian uses his breath work and language ninja skills for good in the Kettlebell Collective, teaching folks how to swing a kettlebell and integrate proper breathing into their practice. 

    They go all around the country and host digital courses as well so you can keep fit and learn the proper technique to crush the fitness game like a true gangster. He also has a sick language program for parents as well. Check the timestamps below for all the radness mapped out. We chat about breathing, what the modern education system is missing and who would win in a duel, T-Swift or Bieber... okay I'm embellishing that that one... we do talk about those two though! Check out all the rad shit Ian's up to:

  • Yo fam... strap in, this show was a ride. I had the privilege to sit down with the legendary Jeff Lester. Jeff's story is one of true captivation. I had such a wonderful time getting to know him better and seeing how his sheer passion for life has brought him through the wildest of experiences. I learned that energy is super powerful and holistic, emotion can be transferred through motion and we even got the Jefe secrete weapon to starting the day right... a Cashew greens Shake.

  • Fam. This is a must listen if you're a musician. Lyrics are just as powerful as the music. I had the wonderful treat to riff on this with my dude, Adam Chin. He's the Co-Founder of Procabulary and Enlifted and he's a badass language ninja. We originally started chatting on all of this to get his insight on the word game as it applied to pop music and especially in the interesting times we're in right now. How much of the subconscious mind is fuelled by the lyrics we choose to listen to? Is there a better way to communicate our message? Man, oh man. This convo is gold. 

    Dig it y'all.

  • When we submit to fear and give our power away, lots of shitty things can happen. What if we kept our power, what if we based decisions from a place of self awareness and inspired others to follow suit? How cool of a place would that be? This is part two with Enlifted StoryWork Coach, Dustin Thibodeaux and we get into the current state of affairs and what we can do to keep calm in the seemingly endless storm.

  • Ever start a Tiny Riot? If you're hesitant, that's all good. Causing good trouble is the name of the game here on today's show. My guest and fellow Enlifted Coach, Dustin Thibodeaux drops knowledge on how to alleviate anxiety simply by taking the first step and putting yourself in motion. 

    About Dustin

    My dude, Dustin Thibodeaux Helps Busy Dads Get Healthy & Lose Weight While Being On The Go!

    He's the founder of Tailored Flow Lifestyle and when I asked him What’s one thing you'd change about your industry? he says this:

    The Mindset on what it takes to be physically and mentally healthy as a busy working Dad or Dude! And guys thinking they need more time to lose weight and get healthy.

    We go to town on actioning goals and making dreams reality on part 1 of the conversation. We learn what super sick connection Dustin's family has to the music industry, how his careers in the health and wellness industry were fuelled by how he grew up as a competitive athlete (you're likely going to spit out milk through your nose when you learn what sport he dominated as a youngster!) and all of the ways Dustin came to realize a better version of himself through the magic of language and the words that subconsciously worked against him for many years.

  • Crazy thought - what if we took the time to properly prepare for a tour? Get a proper biomechanical assessment before hopping on board a 20 date tour, or even for just a few shows over the weekend... What could possibly happen with our performance if we took a proactive approach instead of treating solely when there was a problem that could cost a tour? That's what our conversation with Jamie Camp (MSc. PT Medical Acupuncture, SFMA, AiM, NKT & Adjunct Lecturer University of Toronto Dept of Physical Therapy) detailed. 

    If you're wondering why your back hurts, or why your hip is shot or why that neck pain is starting to come back again even after the massage... save this show and take some notes!

    Here's a backstage pass of what we get into on this episode:

     What's your "walk up" song?

    "Wake Up" - Arcade Fire

    What’s one thing you'd change about your industry?

    Moving from Local “bandaids” to global treatment of the entire system - viewing the body as a whole, where the nervous system runs the show to keep our eyes level and feeling safe... and takes into consideration motor compensation, past medical history etc. I can often trace current back pain/neck injury to 25 year old ankle injuries through the biomechanics.

    Jamie's Message 

    Bands don’t always know what they need - they default to massage, (and I love my RMTs, I co-treat really closely with them) But there are solutions rooted in nervous system reprogramming and biomechanics/movement that could actually save tours. When someone’s injured, the tour is in jeopardy… Whether it’s a catastrophic ankle sprain or chronic overuse, and it doesn’t have to be that way.
    Most people get into physio to work with elite athletes... Very fun, but the more I worked with Musicians, I learned they’re elite athletes with no off season, and a much smaller court (and smaller movement repertoire ie more overuse injury), and they don’t even know it …… the music industry is just catching up to the idea of treatment, tune-ups, etc.

    For more info on Jamie Camp - @musicbiomechanic and @shifthappensoncarlaw on IG

    Yoooo! Are you a musician or an industry professional? Whatcha'all doing August Long?

  • With a Guiness Record under his belt, for the longest freestyle rap in history (8 hours, 45 minutes) our returning guest D.O Gibson knows a thing or two about rolling with the punches. And that's critical now more than ever to be successful in the game. It's an agent of change. Attrition. Perserverance. Hunger. Hustle. Humble. D stopped by to chat with Mike about all that he's been up to in the past year (a lot!) - we get into the importance of going with the flow, the ability to listen and storytell, the importance of giving back to the next generation and mentorship... you name it... it was a great conversation. Stick around to the end as D.O drops a few bars freestyle and pays respect like a boss. 

    What a legend.

  • When it comes to the music business, a lot of it comes down to having a small circle of really rad humans around you. A good team that supports you through everything. Our guest, Gregg James speaks to this point perfectly. The Chicagoland area singer/songwriter is bringing a sense of hope and genuine human condition to the game. We all love things like sex and Gregg is using his craft to express the things everyone's thinking and reluctant to share. His bright personality, charismatic energy and positive outlook on life shine through his catchy blend of pop-meets-neosoul songs. His secret? Being rad. Being authentic. Being himself. We get into it with Gregg and chat all things music. From his influences, networking to the current state of the industry to overcoming obstacles earlier in his life that set him on the course to lead with his heart and stick with his passion of music. Great show here today guys and Gregg brings such a positive, uplifting spirit you'll all get a sense of opportunity where previously you may have seen a problem. Get into it. 

    Follow along with Gregg on facebook, twitter and IG @greggjmusic and presave "Vibin'" on Spotify. Comes out 4.20

  • Hey folks, what kind of magic are you bringing to the table? What makes you different? Whether you're an athlete, an artist or an entrepreneur, you're job is to cut through the noise and become relevant in people's lives, right? You wanna win, right? Today's show discusses actionable steps to do that. This one is rad. I got to sit with the lengendary Gavin McHale (yes Jets fans, the Caps' backup, McHale) discussing why he founded the Maverick Coaching Academy for coaches, trainers and wellness professionals to get better at bringing themselves to market and offering something more than just the right exercise or meal plan. 

    Take notes if you're an artist as these skills are transferrable into teaching, performance and everything it takes to be your brand.

    Here's some more info on our guest today:

    As a Kinesiology graduate, Gavin McHale followed all the rules. He got himself a good job, gained experience and launched his own personal training business in 2012. He quickly realized that following the traditional business model would lead to trading more time for more money.

    So, he struck out to find a better way. Over the course of 4 years and tens of thousands of dollars invested, Gavin was able to build a 6-figure hybrid training business before founding the Maverick Coaching Academy in fall of 2019. In 2020, Gavin left the gym and went all in helping other personal trainers build their hybrid businesses.

    In just over 12 months, he went from ZERO to $150k and helped several of his students surpass the 6-figure mark. He is on a mission to fix the broken fitness industry and strives to help his students build their best life.

    You can connect with Gavin on IG @gavinmchale1
