    That One Thing...With Me and my 2026 Reflections

    That One Thing...with Joe Vasold

    WOW, WOW, WOW. This episode is special for so many reasons. First, I need to call out that this is Episode 40. For those who know me, 40 carries real meaning. It marked a turning point in my boxing journey, and it’s always held deep significance. In numerology, 40 reduces to 4, a number that represents foundation, stability, and building something lasting—which feels perfectly aligned with the consistency this podcast has required. And in podcasting, most shows don’t make it past seven episodes. Reaching 40 means this is no longer just a hobby—it’s a body of work with real substance and endurance.This conversation in particular hit me hard. I cried multiple times while learning from my guest, Joe Vasold. I first met Joe through The Post, an ex-athlete community I’m a part of, and he floored me from our very first conversation. Joe is a 17-year medical device professional, a founder, a husband, and a soon-to-be dad. But beyond the résumé, what stands out is how intentional he is about his spiritual journey. He’s done the work, explored so many perspectives, and carries a profound understanding of why that work matters.Trust me—you don’t want to miss this one. I hope Joe’s story inspires you to dig deep, because the upside is massive. 🎙🔥

So having Andrew, the founder and executive director of Haymakers, on the podcast was incredibly meaningful.After a successful career in finance, Andrew knew there was something more. He used boxing not just as a physical challenge, but as a tool for mental growth. Through that, he saw how powerful the boxing community could be—how this sport is different.

    That One Thing with...Neil Schuster

    This episode evokes feelings of nostalgia for me. Neil and I have been friends since high school, spanning over two decades. It's incredibly gratifying to witness both of us pursuing our passions. Neil made a bold decision to leave his tech sales career and join forces with his brother and close friends to embark on the journey with NoLayingUp. He played a pivotal role as the original mastermind behind the website, merchandising strategy, and advertising approach, which ultimately led to the immense success of NoLayingUp. Despite Neil's remarkable track record of success, it hasn't been without its challenges. He possesses a gritty determination, a love for continuous learning, and the humility to embrace patience. When I had the opportunity to interview Neil, I felt a twinge of nervousness considering his accomplished career. However, this episode turned out to be both inspiring and relatable. Neil's demeanor exudes a sense of coolness, and for anyone contemplating starting something new, his insights are invaluable. You won't want to miss out on this episode—it's a testament to the power of chasing your passions.
