    My super amazing friend Debbie Lacey
    I was amazed listening to this podcast. I’ve lived quite the colorful life. And I’ve been lucky enough to have access to professional therapy. And because of that I was able to listen to this podcast and understand the reality in it. Therapy has helped me a lot with PTSD Specifically understanding the aspects of this podcast being able to see the fear and the consequences within that fear that are real and that only in my mind Hearing it from someone that I admire and look up to as a white water kayaker is now part of my growth.

    Bravo to Nick Troutman! This is a great show - I’ve listened to several episodes and I love how each one delves into a new area to provide ideas that can propel your life to another level. Whether it’s about how to improve your mind, body, fitness, diet, finances or personal performance, Nick has the answers. Well worth a listen. Trust me, you won’t stop with one episode!

Nick interviews many impressive guests highlighting a variety of ways to grow and become our better selves.

    Taken by surprise
    Gave these a listen to begin with because of the whitewater paddling angle. Stayed because it’s much more than that. Thoughtful, inspiring, positive interviews and ideas that motivate and encourage you being your best in what ever you pursue.

    Great reminders for focusing on goals
    I’m familiar with Nick, the professional athlete. I was not familiar with Nick, the motivational speaker. I started listening and am fortunate that there is a catalogue of episodes now avail and I am trying to listen to one a day. I’ve also produced podcasts and I respect the consistency with which he has produced these. Way to go Nick and best of luck to you and Emily!

  • Chris Gragtmans
    Good Stuff
    I appreciate it when people put the time / energy into creating thought leadership... It’s cool to hear Nick’s perspectives as he navigates the transition from athlete to his next phase in life. Also interesting to hear the influence of Tim Ferris, Bigger Pockets, Tony Robbins, and others shine through.

    Changing the way you approach life
    This is a top notch podcast that challenges the way I approach life. I started listening because I’m a fan of kayaking. I continue to listen because Nick and his guest challenge the way I think about things.

    Awesome
    Nick is a very Inspiring individual. The way he values life time and family is evident through this podcast. Theres a lot of great life tips and inspiration that can be derived from this podcast. It’s great to hear what inspires and pushes some of the greatest athletes and other people in this world.

    Inspirational
    Why re-invent the wheel? Nick and his guests have founds secrets to living the best life and helps you to avoid its pitfalls too. You would have to live multiple lifetimes for these lessons. Despite what you might think, you don’t have to be a kayaker to listen. Plus, all the celebrity guests are down to earth and very personable, it’s almost as if you were sitting down having a beer with them. Awesome indeed!

    Listen to one episode. You will never be the same.
    This podcast has something for everyone. As a dirtbag whitewater dream chaser, I prefer the super sick insights into the minds of great paddlers like Rafa and Benny. Benny’s episode was my favorite. Nick does a stellar job of getting the most out of his guests. Check it.
  • GMSComm
    Love it!

    Awesome. Love to hear the wisdom and thought process behind Nick and the guests he has had on the show so far. The episodes bring inspiration and show habits of successful people that I look forward to applying to my own life as a professional in my job and a professional athlete myself. Plus there are some crazy and entertaining stories in there as well! Whether you are someone trying to live life to the fullest , a pro athlete, or just looking for a podcast to kill time in a long car ride, I recommend this podcast to you. There is something in every episode you can apply to your own life. Can’t wait for more!
  • El Foxman
    Great show!
    I first listened to episode 4 with Rafa, and was hooked. I listened to it while driving my girls (12 & 14) to the river this AM. Despite Nick and Rafa being over a decade younger than I am, I found some great wisdom in their words. My girls are boaters (I am not) so they loved the stories, while also listening intently about some of the great philosophy shared. Now listening to prior episodes. Great stuff.

    Go Adventure
    Great podcast that helps you prioritize what’s important for you and teaches you how to go get it. It’s nice to hear the perspective of a pro athlete, husband and father. While I may not have the pro athlete thing going for me, a guy can dream! Keep them coming Nick!
