1:21:42

This week on the show, I’m joined by former pro cyclist, Grand Tour veteran, Olympian, NBC Sports analyst, and now mental performance coach, Brent Bookwalter. We had a great conversation about life on and off the bike. Brent shares his unforgettable experience helping Cadel Evans win the 2011 Tour de France, reflects on the evolution of team dynamics in pro cycling, and breaks down how the sport is shifting with the rise of data and the emergence of the next generation of riders. He also opens up about his own transition from elite racing to coaching, the role of mental fitness, and what it really means to support athlete well-being, especially during pivotal life and career transitions. Big thanks to my producer and friend Anthony Palmer of Palm Tree Pod Co. for joining in on the conversation as well. Be sure to catch Brent daily on Peacock throughout July as he covers the Tour de France, and check out his website to learn more about his coaching services. - - - - - - - - - - - A big thanks to our sponsors: RELEVATE by NeuroReserve: Go to www.neuroreserve.com/travismacy and code TRAVISMACY for 15% off RELEVATE by NeuroReserve: Core Dietary Nutrients for Lifelong Brain Health Hagan Ski Mountaineering - - - - - - - - - - - Purchase A Mile at A Time: A Father and Son’s Inspiring Alzheimer’s Journey of Love, Adventure, and Hope Subscribe: Apple Podcast | Spotify Check us out: Instagram | Twitter | Website | YouTube The show is produced and edited by Palm Tree Pod Co…

195. Perfectionism, Purpose, and Letting Go with Sonya Looney 1:02:16

منذ 30 يومًا1:02:16

1:02:16

What does it really mean to accomplish something and why doesn’t it always feel the way we think it should? This week, I’m joined by my good friend, longtime pro mountain biker, and mindset coach Sonya Looney for a deep and honest conversation about something a lot of us wrestle with, perfectionism. Sonya and I dive into what it means to strive with purpose, how to redefine accomplishment through contribution instead of comparison, and why feeling like we matter isn’t always about metrics. We also talk about big transitions, like Sonya’s move from full-time bike racing to trail running and mental performance coaching—and the freedom (and fear) that comes with letting go of old identities. If you’ve ever been stuck chasing numbers, doubting your worth, or wondering if it’s okay to want something new, I think you’ll find a lot to chew on here. Sonya brings her usual clarity, research-backed wisdom, and vulnerability to the table and I’m always grateful to learn from her!

I’m stoked to introduce you to three incredible athletes and good friends from the Colorado endurance scene: Josiah Middaugh, and his sons, Porter and Sullivan. You’ve probably heard Josiah on the show before — he’s an XTERRA World Champion and one of the most respected voices in endurance sports. Now, his sons are stepping up and following in his footsteps, and it’s pretty inspiring to see. We dive into what it means to fuel like a pro — both in racing and in everyday life. From training in the snow-packed streets of Colorado to chasing PRs in hot Arizona marathons, these guys are doing the work and bringing a ton of wisdom to the table. We cover: Why ultra-low-carb diets might work for Arctic expeditions (but not your next triathlon) The importance of keeping your fueling simple, consistent, and dialed How elite athletes balance performance with real life: work, parenting, and yes — mac & cheese leftovers Tips for training your gut, staying flexible on race day, and using fueling as a performance enhancer , not an afterthought Whether you're chasing a podium or just trying to make your long runs suck a little less, there's a lot here for you.

1:20:22

This episode is a special one. I’m joined by my friend Nickademus de la Rosa—ultra runner, coach, and mental performance consultant—for a powerful, real, and deeply personal conversation. Nick takes us through his journey from being an ego-driven, results-focused athlete to someone who’s learned, through some incredibly hard life experiences, how to lead with compassion, for himself and for others. We talk openly about the tough stuff: performance pressure, mental health struggles, identity, and healing. Nick shares his story of how navigating a diagnosis of borderline personality disorder and undergoing open-heart surgery reshaped his approach to life, coaching, and endurance sports. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a perfectionist loop, battled internal critics, or wondered how to truly support the people you care about, this episode is for you. Nick’s insights on unconditional love, emotional resilience, and the power of being your full, authentic self are something I’ll carry with me—and I think you will, too. - - - - - - - - - - - A big thanks to our sponsors: RELEVATE by NeuroReserve: Go to www.neuroreserve.com/travismacy and code TRAVISMACY for 15% off RELEVATE by NeuroReserve: Core Dietary Nutrients for Lifelong Brain Health Hagan Ski Mountaineering - - - - - - - - - - - Purchase A Mile at A Time: A Father and Son’s Inspiring Alzheimer’s Journey of Love, Adventure, and Hope Subscribe: Apple Podcast | Spotify Check us out: Instagram | Twitter | Website | YouTube The show is produced and edited by Palm Tree Pod Co…

Do you know your cognitive profile? Amber Hanna, a cognitive design consultant who’s helped me personally in ways I’m really grateful for. Amber specializes in using neuro regulation techniques—like meditation, exercise, and creating personalized environments—to help people manage ADHD, high sensitivity, and other neurodivergent conditions. In this episode, we talk about the importance of creating a supportive environment tailored to your needs, the significance of setting boundaries, and how to use sensory cues to minimize stress and maximize comfort. Amber also dives into the value of understanding neurodiversity, and we discuss how these techniques help people find better mental well-being, productivity, and balance. I share a few takeaways from my work with Amber—like reframing periods of boredom, diving into those “boring” tasks with a new perspective, and going all-in on recovery strategies. If you’re looking for ways to improve your self-care, create a more mindful environment, or manage your mental well-being, this episode is full of great insights.

What makes Aaron Saft different? It’s all about putting the person before the athlete.
