Daily Grit with Matt Weathers
In our home, growing up, there was a simple poem on the wall called “The Test” by Carlyle Strauss. When my grandfather, a World War II Veteran, retired as a Police Officer the poem was a gift from the precinct. My father inherited it and I received it after graduation. It speaks of a man who faces adversity “with his head held high,” who “wins in the by-and-by for he isn’t afraid to fail.” It echoes the advice that Rocky gives to his son, “it ain’t about how hard you hit it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.” This podcast is meant to encourage and empower you to “keep moving forward.” It takes daily courage and true grit to do so. My hope for you is that if you get knocked down, you don’t stay down. That you help the person to your left and to your right. And that in the midst of adversity and the various challenges of life, you can rest assured that you have “dared greatly…to spend yourself in a worthy cause.” This is Daily Grit, Winning in the By-and-By, and No One Gets Left Behind.

In this podcast, Matt wants to encourage you, in your everyday life, to believe in your Team, your Coaches (mentors), and especially yourself. ...
In college, Corie and I were introduced to the “Think-Feel-Do” cycle. Simply, how we think about things will often shape how we feel about them. Those feelings then influence our actions, which will either confirm our thoughts, or give us reason to think differently. And then the cycle starts all over again. When it comes to our marriages, we have a choice to “Think-Feel-Act” differently in four ways to intentionally influence ours...
The initial Episode is an interview with Jory Brown, a Veteran of Iraq & Afghanistan. We deployed together in 2009 and he agreed to discuss his struggle with PTSD & Moral Injury, his fight against suicide, and his road to recovery. He is honest and vulnerable, and I believe that Veterans will find much in common with what he opens up about. We know that these types of conversations are happening all-day, every-day across the globe,...
