Sippin On Excellence

Take a good look in the mirror lately?  What's your thoughts on that person you see?  Are you proud of that person that glares back at you, or can you even look 'em in the eyes?  Here's the real kicker… what do you think others see in you?  Be honest! Sometimes our protection is the rejection of others beliefs, whether good or bad.  If you're in a self-deprecating mode or you might be smelling you...

There are sometimes expiration tags when involved in some of life's tough circumstantial choices. The question is...when do you make the decision to walk away, step back, or flat out RUN?! How do you recognize the signals that scream "enough is enough"? Are you too in love with a relationship that no longer loves you back? Is that once upon a time career feeling more like a growth-stunting job? Bo...

This episode is a gold mine of information. The boys are joined by the esteemed Natalie Sampson, DPT. This conversation was more than just a "help fix me doc". As accomplished and amazing as she is with physical therapy, Natalie (along with her husband) is a well-established commercial actor/model… and that is just the latest venture! This show will hopefully make you take a moment of pause to ree...

This topic is a long time coming...timeless truths of everything MEN. It is fair to say that Coach and Doc, two middle-aged, educated, professional, world-traveled, married and single men (whew, that was a mouthful!) may have some say on the subject. This special episode is a gateway into the minds of men. It's said that we as men don't always have much to say. However, understand this. With the r...

This episode was like no other! The boys had a very special guest, Gohar Abrahayman, M.S., PA-C. She is a premier specialist in the world of medical aesthetics, the go-to for transforming lives with beauty contouring. Coach and Doc have a powerful sit down about the effects of aesthetic work as it relates to mental health and relationships. The conversation also takes a deeper dive into the power...

To be or not to be… OBSESSED!  Obsession is such a slippery slope. In one take you can have a highly productive worker, a Beehive super-fan, or lovesick crush.  With one slip, you create a workaholic, a stalking fan, or a cutter.  Obsession can get very dark...fast. however, is all obsession bad?  Do obsession and addiction go hand in hand?  Does your obsession lead to suffering in other aspects o...

This episode is about majestic power that can build empires or burn cities. Do you know what it is? The simple, subtle and yet gregarious art of persuasion. Is there a difference between persuading and leading? Who do you think is more persuasive, men or women? Coach and Doc go in depth about the good, the bad and the ugly of persuasion. This fine art of communication sparks understanding of relat...

We all know what it's like to give so much of ourselves until that tank runs dry.  We do it at work.  We do it in our relationships.  We just keep going 100mph until we have nothing left to give.  One thing we all must learn is how to fill our tanks before we can pour into anyone/anything else.  If we wait for that "check engine" light, it's already too late.  Our health suffers.  Our wealth suffe...

Got fired… who's to blame?  Bouncing from one failed relationship to another...Who's the problem?   Can't quite seem to get ahead? What's the problem?  Most will make every excuse and blame everyone.  They will chalk it up as a need to be motivated or a need to be inspired.  That's BS.   You dont need any of that sh*t.  What you need is to take responsibility and own your sh*t.  If you're not who...

There is an old adage that says, "everyone's got a price, what's yours?" In other words at what point will your "I Will Never" become a "How Much Again?". We all have a price, for good and for bad. But having a price is beyond monetary gain. Why is your soul less valuable than money itself? When did the desire for attention and "the bag" trump self-dignity and respect? This topic has many legs lik...

Why are you wasting energy on stuff that doesn't matter? You allow negative people in your orbit who suck your positive energy dry. Why? We spend so much energy focusing on making life better for others. Making others rich and happy while neglecting our own needs and wants. Makes no sense when you think about it, huh? We spend so much energy and time worrying about things out of our control and fo...

These conversations seem to be the new norm - "He's man-splaining again, with his toxic masculinity" or "this job environment is toxic". Bottomline, if it doesn't agree with you, ride with you or follow you, it is considered TOXIC. How does toxic behavior show up in your world,? Quite honestly, the use of the word is highly abused and we truly despise it. Coach and Doc decided pull no punches and...

Undesirable...definitely the last thing anyone wants to hear about themselves. What is considered (un)desirable is individual and all relative. That being said, there are some general character traits among the sexes that most will agree fit the bill. Coach and Doc rip off the band-aid and touch on all angles, especially with regards to the male and female connection. Oh, we definitely rufflin' fe...

Women screaming from the hills "I don't need a man!" Men yelling from the valley back, "Girl, we don't need you!" Ladies and Gentlemen, stop the madness! Women don't need a man, until they do! And the same goes for men. The moment we dismiss the opposite sex is the moment we exclude our most purposeful human experience on this earth...connection. So really, STOP! This episode is Coach and Docs wak...

"Just in case this doesn't work, I'll just…".  This is that daunting beginning statement you place more faith in when you haven't even started building your plan A! Whether it's a lack of confidence in the unforeseen or  shallow commitment to the possibility, plan B seems to get more traction. Why do we short ourselves for the low hanging fruit instead of climbing for the juiciest pieces at the to...

Do you believe you are something that you're not? The better question...do you think you "deserve" something that you have not earned? Many individuals in this current state of the world surely seem to be under the influence of the blue pill, a state of illusion...more like delusion! Like in the movie "The Matrix", Coach and Doc are offering you the red pill, a true dose of reality. Sip Of The Day...

"First impressions never have a second chance", quote by Charles Swindoll. It is said to never judge a book by its cover, but when have you ever picked up a ragged book to read? How we initially present ourselves is important, but how we actually show up is everything. Do you know how your first impression is perceived by others? Probably not. The bigger questions is, do you mold to fit the percep...

One of the world's greatest mysteries...what is the definition of love? The real question...what does love mean to you?  Love is subjective and individual.  Love from and for a man is quite different than love for and from a woman.  This conversation may have some shocking revelations for a lot of you.  So...Sit back with this "old fashioned" sip as Coach and Doc share their thoughts on that thing...

This episode is truth and light about the nature of obesity. Understanding that shaming and degrading of physical appearance, or yet the polar opposite, fetishizing over the same are mere personal feelings based on looks! Obesity plays one true role in the game of life, and our vital organs, joints, tendons, and bones always keep score. But why is this not the root of today's discussion?  Why is y...

Make no mistake, being ALONE has absolutely nothing to do with being LONELY. Have you seen the woman that sits at the bar by herself, glass of wine, and absolutely content? Or do you know that married guy living a single life, pleading for the attention of a neglectful spouse? So many examples like these and everything in between speak to the magnitude of loneliness versus being alone. The idea of...

Sure, Boo.  Whatever you want.  Anything for my baby.  These and many other phrases are so very common when you're talking about a simp!  But what is a simp...really?  Why is the term typically identified with men?  Can women be simps too?  It's interesting how this word has made a major comeback from the 90's and not respectfully so!  Coach and Doc take a hard stance on the behaviors of a simp wh...

In this day and age, you hear all the time...I DESERVE a high value man/woman. I DESERVE a raise. I DESERVE to be respected. I DESERVE, I DESERVE, I DESERVE!!! There seems to be a ton of external expectations but is there justification for that inflated internal worth? Are these desires disguised as needs serving as a detriment to personal growth and development? Coach and Doc have a great discuss...

Man, oh man! How do I get the most out of you?  Do I yell and scream and point out your faults or do I take you out for an ice cream cone?  Bottom line...Do you learn life lessons from being punished or rewarded? Coach and Doc hit this topic from many viewpoints including the battle between the sexes, teaching kids, in the workplace, and relationships with friends.  We hope to reward you with some...

Are you ready for you to not be you anymore? But who will you if you're not going to be you? Only you can decide! Can the true nature of a person really change? Is the need to change more of an evolution of purpose or a need to be a sacrificial lamb for other's "needs"?  This episode is all about Coach and Doc sharing their fundamental beliefs about that friend or foe...CHANGE. Sip of the Day:  Ca...

When you step out looking amazing, you always feel amazing!  In this episode, Coach and Doc share insight that creates the amaizing...Lifestyle Designer, Matteo Perin. Matteo is a world-class creator of style with grace from head to toe for men and women alike.  He regularly works the who's who of the world's A-listers showing that style is more than a label.  It is a state of being.  Matteo share...
