Andrew's song lyrics: "Every new beginning is some other new beginning's, end."

This final episode isn't a memorial, it's a celebration.

Union Pacific Coffee Shop has great atmosphere and delicious coffee/home-made food.

"Ironically Wim doesn't respond well to cold calls." Gold. 

"This podcast has never been one to make us money but we don't want it to cost us a lot either." haha. 

The episode where John learned to be present.

Hosting Stories of Resilience.

Jesse Roper's incredible episode.

"Screw it up, just go for it, hang it out there. People will love you more for hanging it out there then trying to be something you're not." - Jesse Roper

When you're ok with who you are, you'll stop making everything about you.

Our guests were people willing to take action!!

It's not about being fearless but fearing less.

Courage is feeling the fear and doing it anyway.

The power of vulnerability is it draws people near.

Shoutout to our Decaf Bengal Spice tea that prevented our mouths from drying up while recording.

"We know this has been a success if it inspires people to make a small act of courage."

Numbers are only one story of the experience.

John learned to how to make space for other people.

Andrew learned he is best when he asks the questions. 

"Never let our ambitions confuse us from who we really are." Jim Collins.

"Why not just be yourself?"

"You will never say something worth remembering if you can't say it from the depths of who you truly are." 

The three principles that guided all of our guest choices and conversations.

1. Authenticity
2. Vulnerability
3. Good Story Telling Ability

Brene Browne! 

It's impossible to tell a great story story without being authentic and vulnerable.

"So clearly, this is well rehearsed." It always was...n't .... 

Obstacles are opportunities we can learn and grow from.

Obstacle Course is a mindset, a decision and a life long habit. That's why it never ends.

Often, obstacles start as a feeling. 

"I will always look back and remember that we hosted a show that encouraged people to not be overtaken by the tough things in life but to allow the tough things to toughen them up so they could move forward and do what's truly meaningful and great in the world." 

Thank you Judy!!! Your peanut butter cookies will never be be bested.

We love you and keep pushing through those obstacles. Thanks folks.

This is the second half of the discussion on designing our obstacle course.  We run through each of the obstacles that we are planning and talk about what the purpose of each obstacle is- confidence, balance, agility, upper body strength, etc.  Additionally, we give you some very specific ideas and recommendations if you want to either build or improvise your own obstacle course.  Even if you have no space of your own, we'll talk about how to use your neighborhood or local park as an obstacle course.  

We are building our own backyard obstacle course!  In the first part of this discussion, we cover what an obstacle course actually is, why you would use one as part of your fitness or physical training program, and the basic design considerations when it comes to either building or improvising your own obstacle course.
