Check that out if you've never heard my story or want I guess the latest version. Moving towards todays episode, the first topic I touch on is yes, a lot of things are far out.

I am more comfortable than I was when I started this thing and while I've got plenty of issues and problems I'm personally working through, I feel like my voice, at least behind this mic, is not one of them.

Happy Monday UG fam! This weekend where I live we got hit with a bad winter snow and ice storm and it left us without power for 3-4 days. That's why this episode was delivered Monday night instead of the morning. An estimated 200K+ people lost power. It was definitely another challenging time in what's already been a rough start to this decade. At work it was crazy and at home. I am thankful to see the power of people coming together though to get through the tough times.

Today during the recording of this episode, it would have been my dad's 54th birthday. This episode is entirely inspired off of that. Obviously my emotions during this timeframe were heavily involved with that so I figured doing an episode from that was appropriate. I'm not going to lie y'all, I've been working like crazy and missing out on sleep so I wasn't going to do this episode but I just couldn't let my pops down like that. So here we are. First topic, I talk about how we can win...2021-02-1212 minUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 95 "Recovery"Ninety-fifth Episode released on 02/08/2021. Happy Monday UG fam!

Once again, I'm not really going into details because that is my own private life which I typically don't share a whole lot of on the pod.

What's good UG FAM Happy Friday! I didn't release an episode on Monday because I wanted to watch the College Football Playoff National Championship game. While the game itself was a blowout and not great, I still had a good time watching it with people for sure.  It also made for a good segway in order to bring on my next guest on the show, one of my lifelong brothers I've made due to college football. On this guest episode, I talk with my great friend and former Oregon walk on teammate Jason Sloan Jr. I...2021-01-151h 01Ubiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 92 "Storm"Ninety-second Episode released on 01/08/2021.

In this episode, I do touch briefly on that subject, but hopefully in a way that isn't too political. I talk about how we should fight with HONOR and the right SPIRIT in anything we are fighting for as humans.

I know we are all a lot more optimistic for what this year will bring as compared to last year. As much as the new year is about new things, sometimes it's about removing the things that aren't helping us on our path. In the first topic, I touch on what are we willing to give up in order to more directly align with our missions and...2021-01-0412 minUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 90 "2021"Ninetieth Episode released on 01/02/2021.

The light was beaming this morning, felt good, but it went away real quick. This episode I touch on learning to not beat yourself up. We all got so much to do in our busy lives and we can't always do life to the maximum. That's okay, don't be too hard on yourself. I just keep chipping away, but I do know I've got so much more chipping away to do.

On this episode, I revisit a couple themes or topics already mentioned on the pod before. But they are always important. First, I talk about productivity and sort of a formula I use to try to enhance my own productivity. What works for me may not work for others, but I think it's a pretty solid method.

Still nonetheless here we are and I had a personal friend reach out for me to discuss topic #1 on this one.

Today's episode I speak on falling back to the level of our training and NOT rising to the occasion. I often think this is misconstrued and a lot of people get this wrong. I give all the credit to my college coach, Coach Neal for this one. All the hours in the dark are going to come to light. I feel like I may have spoke on...2020-11-1411 minUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 78 "Vision"Seventy-eighth Episode released on 11/09/2020. Happy Monday to you guys. This episode was originally planned for last Friday, then Saturday, but things wouldn't corporate. I worked 20+ hours on Friday and had nothing in the tank on Saturday. Also Oregon Football was playing for the first time in a long time on Sat. So I chose to watch that and enjoy that time with friends instead.

Happy Friday to you guys! Also Happy Halloween. I hope you guys find a way to make it a good one even though things are a tad different this year. Personally, I haven't really been too hyped for Halloween, maybe it's because I don't have a costume, maybe it's because I've got a lot of others things on my mind. However, I hope you guys get some candy and share some memories with your people. Today's episode was inspired by a couple of things, first, a book, 3 things successful people do: The roadmap that will change...2020-10-3013 minUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 75 "Trauma"Seventy-fifth Episode released on 10/26/2020.

This episode I brought on a guest and long time friend/homie of mine Ruben Garcia that I met in 2012 as a freshman at the University of Oregon. I met Ruben in the dorms even though we weren't roommates we essentially were. We connected over music, sports, and just being clueless freshman trying to find our way. Our paths were very different, but I think we both connected because we were lost souls. Ruben had a rough upbringing and no male role model in his childhood. I lost my father towards the...2020-10-2036 minUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 72 "Open"Seventy-second Episode released on 10/16/2020.

It was a great weekend in Vegas and I came back with a lot of perspective which I packed into this episode. It was a really quick trip but totally worth it. I was disappointed because I missed game 6 of the NBA Finals (which I never miss the Finals) but other than that what a weekend!

To be honest with you guys, I didn't even feel like recording this episode today until I listed to a new podcast created by Jeff Logan called Becoming THE Beast. The amount of energy brought forth, told me I had to get back on track and sit down and record for you guys. The reason why I haven't dropped any content as of late was because I had to evacuate from our home last week due to wildfires. While, thankfully our house didn't burn down and we were able to return home, it still was...2020-09-2212 minUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous GrowthUbiquitous Growth 67 "Delegate"Sixty-seventh Episode released on 09/07/2020.

It's been a while since I've done a guest episode, but I finally sat down with one of my closet friends, Ross Palmer, and we hit some good talking points.
