This week on the pod, Palmer is joined by Mike Watts. 

Mike is a dad to two, has a killer accent and is really good at breathing. 

Ok - so that sounds a little wild, but its true. Mike is a mater instructor with Oxygen Advantage and a really great guy. 

In this episode Palmer and Mike chat about:
-human performance vs. athlete performance and how they relate
-Mike defines functional breathing
-high performance habits (breath, how we think, how we feel, sleep, how we nourish ourselves, etc) and why Mike started working on these
-Mike shares a couple different breath work activities
-Leadership
-and a ton more!

This was a really fun conversation and we hope you feel as inspired as we did while recording. Inspired not only to prioritize breath work in your life, but to think about your high performance habits and how dialing them in can help you to be a better leader and more present for your family.

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
