This is me, sharing where I'm arriving in thoughts, perspectives, and ideas after a dynamic 21 years serving in the Marine Corps and wrestling with "Who Am I"; authentically, and Who Do I Want To Be" now that the military construct is not forcibly shadowing my life. I've found that Nature and tackling the physical & emotional challenges of ultra endurance adventuring provide more insight and clari... more

Latest Episodes

A lot going on in the world and life the last 2 weeks. Spent a good part of that time ruminating on a comment I received regarding the last episode.

Such a narrow narrow mindset.

Or maybe, there always doesn't have to be a lesson in everything all the time - so just flow a little bit.

Do Hard Things. Doing Hard for the sake of Hard is not really what it's about.

It needs to be purposeful and is relative. Today's hard isn't the same as yesterdays. And the purpose may or may not be the same as it was.

Just some thoughts as I am in... more

  • Cut the Chew.

    Great topics, but having you spit in my ear while I’m mowing the lawn, running, etc. is extremely distracting. You’ve proven you can do insanely awesome endurance events, so getting through an episode without chewing should be easy.

  • Always Inspiring & TRUTH that Makes You Better at LIFE

    I love listening to this podcast with Tosh. There’s nothing fancy about it, there’s no cool intro music or sponsors, it’s just one of the most real dudes out there spitting truth from the heart.

    In a world of excess flash, fads & gimmicks, man it’s GREAT listening to someone REAL.

    Tosh is one of those guys where just listening to him for a minute or two makes you want to be better in all areas of your life.

    Much Respect, Tosh 🤙🤙🤙
