After a combined four decades of coaching athletes, Josh and Andy sit down to unpack the biggest lessons they wish they’d learned sooner. They cover why mastering movement mechanics early prevents decades of pain, how prioritizing the “big levers” (sleep, whole foods, consistent training) beats any quick fix in health and fitness. They share candid stories about chasing aesthetics, discovering the power of exciting goals, and learning to persevere through inevitable highs and lows. Whether you’re a teen just stepping into the weight room or a lifelong athlete refining your game, this episode distills forty years of trial, error, and success into actionable wisdom.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
