  • Not just for athletes and stage performers

    I find TMF to be very beneficial in my business. I often listen to TMF while walking or jogging early in the morning. Every podcast is interesting and the messages are often relatable to me and my team. “The 3 Things You Can Do Now…” podcast is on repeat when I’m preparing for big and small events (I’ve also required my children to listen to this one). “Discovering How Living Adventurously…” plays in my head when I don’t feel like exercising and always inspires me to show up 100% of the time. ... more

    I love this podcast. Barton is super motivating and his advise is so accessible. I’m no athlete but I work out on the reg and I care about fitness and that’s all you need to benefit from Barton’s musings, expertise and advise. And these guests! Where does he find these people?!? Wow! I get so much out of one episode I find myself sending the links to friends time and time again. Stay tuned, this guy is so much more a fitness expert and motivational coach. He’s a STAR!

  • Always inspiring

    Barton is legit!! He gets the biggest names in fitness to talk mindset, and their lessons apply inside and outside the gym. I was SO stoked when he interviewed Dustin Poirier’s coach. Such a good episode!! That and the Bethany Shadburne are my favorites so far. Highly recommend!

  • Inspiring and Educational!

    The Mindset Forge podcast is great! Bart, the host, is a excellent interviewer. He consistently has top-tier guests, digs in with great questions and a well thought out process that flows smoothly. Solo episodes are just as educational and inspiring. As a lifetime learner and personal development junkie, I value all the knowledge provided in The Mindset Forge. The show will quickly become a regular in your rotation. Thank you, Bart, for providing authentic A+ content.
