GUEST NOTES

Todd is a guy I connected with over social media. His handle is @irun.iwork.idad - and his content is a great mix of those three things: Fitness, work, and family life, which are all pretty relevant for us. He's a successful New York City trader.. beautiful family, four kids.. ridiculous shape .. coaches the little league teams.. Todd does it all.. and he utilizes fitness as a catalyst to do it all at a high level. We talked a lot about this idea of using fitness as a catalyst, and among other things, we went deep into the dynamics of Youth sports, Todd give us his “3 team rules” that he uses with all his little league teams that provide a framework for success on and off the field. You’ll walk away from this episode with a new perspective on fitness and a kick in the tail to get moving.
