IronHeart Coaching: Focusing on Men's Health, Fitness, and Wellness

Today I discuss the trait of adaptability. How is not only ensures survival, but it truly defines the future. I use an example from American business that will demonstrate not only what happens when you adapt, but what happens when you refuse to.

As we roll in to 2026, it's important to set some goals. when we do that, we always set goals to become the person we want to be. There's nothing wrong with that, but when you finally become the person you want to be, you have to be willing to set that aside to become the person you were meant to be. the man God called you to be. We discuss that in this episode.

A short podcast to say Merry Christmas and to really remember the reason for the season.

Today, I talk about more plans for IronHeart Coaching in 2026 and then move into reflecting on 2025. Take some time in the next two weeks and think about your biggest success in 2025, and also the things you didn't have go the way you wanted. This prepares you for January 1 to hit the ground running!

It's been a while, but the IronHeart Coaching Show is back with a new drive, new programs, and ready to take on 2026.Listen to hear the changes and the plans. It's worth it.

When you have something great to offer the world, how do you get the message out without shameless self promotion or ego driven ads? Relationships. Build them with others. Make them happen. Interduce like minded people. It all comes back.

Today we talk about Mission, Vision, and Values statements. How to write them, what they're for, and why YOU need one. It's not just for companies and organizations!https://personalvalu.es/personal-values-test

Remember, you are most qualified to help the person you used to be. Your past does not disqualify you from being the person God called you to be.

Today we discuss the work before the work. What that means is most people are not ready for change. They aren't ready to do what's necessary to facilitate change because they haven't done the mental, emotional, or spiritual work to set them up for success. These people are destined to fail and then blame the coach, trainer, or other professional they've hired to help. A good coach can see what you can't. They can see what needs to be done before the work starts. If you're going to get a guide, be ready and willing to FOLLOW DIRECTIONS.

When you start living the life you've been called to live, and being the man God called you to be, you will get attacked. The enemy only attacks what's valuable. Thieves don't break into empty houses. People will always remember an old version of you. When it happens, don't get sucked back in to the drama, the places you worked to get out of, and the person you used to be. Understand it for what it is, and keep moving forward!

It's halftime of 2025. If you want to win the second half, there are specific things you can do. Set yourself up for success by making sure you take the time to do 3 things. 1. Assess 2. Adjust 3. Take Action. This is your halftime locker room speech!

Today we bring you up to date on some new offerings and certifications in the IronHeart Coaching world, and we discuss getting off the sideline and into the arena. Stop thinking and planning and start doing!
