  • The Power of Yes

    The Power of Yes
    Mar 11 2026
    Can one word change your life? Yes. Pun intended. Yes embodies a way of being and making decisions that can sometimes feel against the grain, scary, and add odds with a felt sense of safety and comfort. But often that area of discomfort, if leaned into, precipitates tremendous growth. In this episode, we walk through some personal stories where we said YES to opportunities, invitations, and ways of thinking that have helped us grow as humans. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?

    Adventures in Artificial Intelligence - Part 1
    Feb 25 2026
    Artificial intelligence is undoubtedly here to stay but the way people choose to use it has implications beyond the obvious. Join us as we discuss AI use in the coaching and creative spaces and how coming face to face with a moral and monetary dilemma has forced us to grapple with the very real impacts of artificial intelligence in business. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?

    Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes! Alex's New Approach (and Coach) for Hybrid Training
    Feb 18 2026
    If you know Alex, you know that she struggles with change. Especially big ones. And you also probably know how seriously she takes her training for running, strength, and triathlon. Which makes changing coaches and training programs probably the biggest and most impactful change that she's made since deciding to step away from a legal career. And a change that big deserves a podcast episode! So for this episode, we are diving deep on the drivers behind making a training change like this and how she is handling it mentally. Whether your interests lie in training and program design for hybrid training or in the more personal side of things, this episode is for you. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?

  • Joy is not Resistance (but it still matters) - a Solo Show from Meredith

    Joy is not Resistance (but it still matters) - a Solo Show from Meredith
    Feb 11 2026
    In my first solo episode, I (Meredith) step behind the mic to reflect on the tension between joy, guilt, and real resistance. This show dives into the nuance of emotional substitution and how feel-good phrases like “Joy is Resistance” can unintentionally bypass the real work of activism. We will explore what true resistance looks like (spoiler: it’s not always comfortable), and how we can hold both joy and responsibility without confusing the two. I'm going to challenge you to build your emotional capacity, reflect on your guilt, and start engaging with real sustained action. You don’t need to agree, you just need to stay curious. Topics Covered: The myth of "joy as resistance" Baldwin, Lorde, and the call for responsibility Emotional partitioning (hello, divided plate metaphor!) Guilt vs. action in the face of injustice What real resistance actually looks like 🎧 This is one to share—especially with someone who’s been struggling to find clarity in the chaos.

    Kristi Mohn: 20 Years of Unbound, Women in Gravel, and Training Grounds AZ
    Jan 21 2026
    In this episode, I sit down with Kristi Mohn to talk about the 20 year anniversary of Unbound Gravel, the impact of community and local flavor on race longevity, and why the work for women and diversity is always worth doing. We talk about leadership in every day life and the power of subtle influence that occurs independent of platform size. Kristi has some very cool new things coming up including a gravel training camp called Training Grounds in Patagonia, AZ in late February that's meant to help riders get ready for the big spring classic races like Mid South and Unbound.

  • Stay in Your Lane? Not a Chance! - Leadership and Activism in the Age of the Internet

    Stay in Your Lane? Not a Chance! - Leadership and Activism in the Age of the Internet
    Jan 14 2026
    When public figures, athletes, celebrities, and most especially - women, speak out after political or social crises, they're often met with the same tired command: “Stay in your lane.” In this episode, we unpack why that phrase is more than just dismissive, it’s a tool of patriarchal control. From celebrity activism to everyday leadership, we explore how visibility equals influence, and why using your voice is a form of power. This episode challenges the idea that any of us should remain quiet or apolitical and makes the case that all people, regardless of their platform, are leaders with the ability to drive change. 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?
