Mike Posner is the light.
He's known worldwide as a Grammy-nominated musician. His songs like "I Took A Pill In Ibiza" and "Cooler Than Me" have been streamed billions of times.
But really, he's so much more than that.
His music helped pull me out of depression. His album β Keep Going β changed the trajectory of my life. Mike was the person I listened in September 2019 (when I started meditating and did 75 Hard).
I noticed there was something different about how he operated. He was acting in love. He was self-aware. He was willing to work hard but also trusted the flow of life. I didn't know what he was on, but I wanted it.
His impact on my life has been incredible. And then to sit down with him for 2+ hours... and have it go better than I could imagine?
What a dream come true.

Zach Pogrob and I ran our first marathon on December 2, 2023 (St. Jude's Memphis Marathon). This was a real conversation we'd have if the mics were off.
We spoke about the entire week we spent together, the run club, pre-race, during-race, and post-race.
We also were lucky to be randomly joined by Hunter Weiss (https://www.instagram.com/hunter_weiss), for about 1 hour of this podcast, who filled us in on marathon training tips, his preparation for his next race, and what it was like to track our performances in Memphis.
Zach's time: 3:16:30
My time: 3:39:22
We're excited to build on this in 2024 - starting with the Austin Marathon on February 18. We hope you'll join us there.

This is a new series.
This is a way for me to share what's on my heart and mind in a solo, raw format. It's quick, to the point, and just what's top of mind. Audio recorded on my iPhone.
I hope you find it useful, insightful or helpful in some way.
Like anything, I'm going to do this 100 times.
Maybe it'll be over the next 100 days. Maybe it'll be more drawn out. I'm not sure. It'll just a space for creative exploration in a slightly new format.
I'm excited to test and experiment.
