#85. Running Two Solo Marathons and Redefining Your Impossible through Habit Stacking, Identity Work & More— Cory Camp

"A lot of us gravitate really easily to that label. And it's interesting to observe you're describing who you are as a way that you show up for someone else. How do you show up for yourself? That's one of the themes that keeps coming up in this conversation. How do you make yourself proud? What goes into that? That's where your identity is." - Cory Camp
This week, we continue our conversation with Cory Camp.
Cory is a personal performance coach, podcast host, and the founder of the Forever Athlete brand & community.
This week’s episode begins with the story of Cory’s two solo marathons… That’s right, he ran two marathons completely unassisted.
This experience taught him about the power of momentum in redefining and achieving the impossible.
By seeking discomfort, our boxes of possibility expand.
We also discuss the importance of sleep & recovery when striving towards peak performance.
Cory explains a few of his biggest tips to achieving a good night’s sleep and creating change that is actually sustainable.
If you’re a high performer or someone looking to make a productive change in your life, this is the episode for you.

#84. The Forever Athlete Mindset and How to Achieve Peak Performance & Flow State through Biofeedback — Cory Camp

"One of the things that coach of mine actually helped me work through was creating a 'To Be List. So setting intentions first for the day, and then with those intentions, they run your to-do list. So what I mean by that is instead of on my to-do list today, being I need to record a podcast with you guys, I need to do whatever, it becomes: all right how do I want to be today? That's the first question that I'm asking when I wake up. So getting clear on those intentions I think goes a long way." - Cory Camp

#83. Canada’s Mosaic Culture, How to Navigate Productivity vs. Creativity, and the Art of Radical Alignment — Casey Palmer

"Because if you're not creating and doing things from a place of core central beliefs, it won't have an impact on you. If you do something today and you've completely forgotten it by tomorrow, was there a point of doing it, is kind of how I see things. I want everything I do to place its mark on my soul because it was important." - Casey Palmer

#82. Black Fatherhood, Canadian Culture, and Impactful Lessons from 20 Years of Blogging — Casey Palmer

"And I find that when you have parent creators who focus a lot on inserting the kids into everything, like 'hey look at this cute picture of my kids' or 'here's what my kids up to... They lose themselves in the process. Whereas with me, I feel like the blog and all the stuff I created was a good self-check-in throughout the process. Because what I want the brand to ultimately communicate is, not so much here is what my life as a dad looks like because of my kids, I want to communicate here is the man I'm becoming, because I'm a dad." - Casey Palmer

This week’s guest is Casey Palmer. He’s a Canadian content creator, IT project manager, podcast host, and a Black father to two amazing kids in Toronto.

Casey has been mentioned in publications like National Geographic, Lonely Planet, and has been featured on podcasts and radio shows dozens of times over.

#81. 2 Year Celebration of the Discover More Podcast

“I think this leads into an idea that represents the podcast as a whole. As we’ve talked about it a lot before, but it’s just ‘better questions lead to better answers.’ I believe that more and more each day that our lives are simply reflections of the questions that we’re willing to ask ourselves and the people in our lives. So it’s both an internal seeking clarity with asking powerful questions, but then also developing relationships seeking clarity or new realizations from other people by asking them better questions right?" - Aidan Weinmann
Welcome back to a special episode of Discover More.
Today’s episode is a celebration of the 2 year anniversary of the Discover More Podcast.
We share some of our biggest takeaways and lessons from the journey so far.
Some of the topics that we discuss are— the relationship between curiosity & humility, the process of overcoming judgment, and the law of reciprocity.
We also discuss the importance of and our experiences with building self-love and practicing self-advocacy.

#79. Our 40 Day Shadow Work Journey with “Claim Your Power” by Mastin Kipp

“In my experience, I’ve always looked at the top level, being Behavior, as the first and foremost thing that we’re trying to change. And he (Mastin Kipp) argues that instead of focusing on behavior and trying to shift behavior, we should flip the script and then start with the Original Incident.” - Aidan Weinmann
Welcome back to another episode of Discover More.
In this week’s episode, we reflect on our experience completing Mastin Kipps’ book, “Claim Your Power”
“Claim Your Power” is a 40-day journey, that helps readers identify and dissolve hidden traumas and discover their life’s purpose.
The book is a unique blend of psychology and spirituality and combines captivating storytelling with insightful writing prompts.
We share some of the most impactful prompts from the book, as well as a few of our biggest takeaways.
One of our biggest ideas from the book is the “Anatomy of Transformation Ladder, a framework that explains that path to transformation.
When it comes to change, we all look at behaviors first… how to lose 10 pounds, wake up earlier, stick to a healthy diet, etc.
Kipp explains that for true change to occur, we must flip the model on its head and, instead of looking at behaviors first, we must look at our Original Incident, or trauma that informed the beliefs, emotions, stories, and behaviors in our life.
From bottom to top: Original Incident, Beliefs, Emotions, Stories, Behaviors.
We also share and reflect on our favorite quotes from the book.
This was one of the most impactful books that we’ve ever read, so we highly recommend picking up a copy if you feel called.
We hope you enjoy this episode of Discover More with us.

“The trees are my biggest teachers, that’s the fewest words I can give that to you. Nature has changed my life. I think I’ve learned more about mental health from the trees than reading my textbooks all the time. Being in tune with that and Mother Nature and how it operates is our biggest teacher.” — Andrea Rumler, LLPC

#77. Why We Need to Sit With Our Thoughts, Exercise Diaphragmatic Breathing, and Expand Our Understanding of Mental Health— Andrea Rumler, LLPC

"And this became the saying of the summer, 'sit with it.' Sit with it, please. Like we don't always have to make decisions based on what we're feeling right now, we don't always have to react. So we can just sit with it. If something's really bothering you, if you're really happy, sit with it for a minute and just soak that in." - Andrea Rumler, LLPC
Welcome back to another episode of Discover More.
This week’s guest is Andrea Rumler.

#76. The Reflective Episode—Finding Worthiness, Balancing Idleness & Productivity, Enneagrams, Integration, and More

"Because I think we live in the societal and social narratives that everyone's always saying, "I'm busy", "I'm always busy", "I'm working on this", "I'm working on that", but if you're always busy, when do we have time for ourselves? Our amazing guest, @weswoodson, once said: "how can you love yourself if you don't spend time with yourself?" I realized, "this is the first opportunity I've had to commit a month to nothing else, no one else, but to me. Just working on myself. - Benoit Kim
Welcome back to another episode of Discover More.
In this week's episode, hosts Aidan & Benoit sit down to reflect on Benoit’s first two months living in Los Angeles.
After leaving his job last May to pursue graduate school, Benoit felt like he had lost his purpose and was battling feelings of unworthiness.
Unworthiness is one of the most common and crippling issues that we’ve seen and experienced within the world, and it becomes a key topic of this week’s conversation.
We believe that you don’t need to be productive to be worthy. Just being human is enough.
Similarly, we believe that productivity is placed on a pedestal in America and idleness carries a negative stigma.
In this week’s episode, we dispel some of these ideas and explore the topics of achievement, worthiness, and recovery within our own lives.
Benoit shares about the personal struggles that he has recently faced, as well as the practices that have helped him heal in the past few months.
We also discuss a variety of topics including Enneagrams, motivation, and integration.
We hope you find this episode helpful, wherever you may be, and we thank you for listening.
