  • Deb Armstrong on New Challenges, Giving Back, and Living Young

    Deb Armstrong on New Challenges, Giving Back, and Living Young
    2026/03/25
    Deb Armstrong is truly one of a kind. She is an Olympic gold medalist but as you will learn quickly in this episode, that accomplishment doesn't define who she is. After retiring from a successful World Cup racing career, Deb went on to get her degree in history from the University of New Mexico where she also learned more about who she was outside of her athletics. She jumped into ski coaching with both feet and went on to hold several high level coaching and directing roles where she helped develop some of the best young ski talent in the US. Deb's approach to coaching is playful, light, and distinctly unserious - despite being a very serious athlete for her entire life. Which tells you everything you need to know about her magic. She has an electric enthusiasm for sharing, coaching, and giving back. All of this comes through when you see her in action on her YouTube channel, Ski Strong, where she's published hundreds of coaching and instructional videos. We are so grateful to have spent time with Deb in Colorado and once again when recording this episode. It's rare to see someone live with such passion and curiosity for life. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!

  • The Power of Yes

    The Power of Yes
    2026/03/11
    Can one word change your life? Yes. Pun intended. Yes embodies a way of being and making decisions that can sometimes feel against the grain, scary, and add odds with a felt sense of safety and comfort. But often that area of discomfort, if leaned into, precipitates tremendous growth. In this episode, we walk through some personal stories where we said YES to opportunities, invitations, and ways of thinking that have helped us grow as humans. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?

    Artificial intelligence is undoubtedly here to stay but the way people choose to use it has implications beyond the obvious. Join us as we discuss AI use in the coaching and creative spaces and how coming face to face with a moral and monetary dilemma has forced us to grapple with the very real impacts of artificial intelligence in business. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?

  • Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes! Alex's New Approach (and Coach) for Hybrid Training

    Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes! Alex's New Approach (and Coach) for Hybrid Training
    2026/02/18
    If you know Alex, you know that she struggles with change. Especially big ones. And you also probably know how seriously she takes her training for running, strength, and triathlon. Which makes changing coaches and training programs probably the biggest and most impactful change that she's made since deciding to step away from a legal career. And a change that big deserves a podcast episode! So for this episode, we are diving deep on the drivers behind making a training change like this and how she is handling it mentally. Whether your interests lie in training and program design for hybrid training or in the more personal side of things, this episode is for you. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?

  • Joy is not Resistance (but it still matters) - a Solo Show from Meredith

    Joy is not Resistance (but it still matters) - a Solo Show from Meredith
    2026/02/11
    In my first solo episode, I (Meredith) step behind the mic to reflect on the tension between joy, guilt, and real resistance. This show dives into the nuance of emotional substitution and how feel-good phrases like “Joy is Resistance” can unintentionally bypass the real work of activism. We will explore what true resistance looks like (spoiler: it’s not always comfortable), and how we can hold both joy and responsibility without confusing the two. I'm going to challenge you to build your emotional capacity, reflect on your guilt, and start engaging with real sustained action. You don’t need to agree, you just need to stay curious. Topics Covered: The myth of "joy as resistance" Baldwin, Lorde, and the call for responsibility Emotional partitioning (hello, divided plate metaphor!) Guilt vs. action in the face of injustice What real resistance actually looks like 🎧 This is one to share—especially with someone who’s been struggling to find clarity in the chaos.
