Artificial intelligence is undoubtedly here to stay but the way people choose to use it has implications beyond the obvious. Join us as we discuss AI use in the coaching and creative spaces and how coming face to face with a moral and monetary dilemma has forced us to grapple with the very real impacts of artificial intelligence in business.

If you know Alex, you know that she struggles with change. Especially big ones. And you also probably know how seriously she takes her training for running, strength, and triathlon. Which makes changing coaches and training programs probably the biggest and most impactful change that she's made since deciding to step away from a legal career.

And a change that big deserves a podcast episode! So for this episode, we are diving deep on the drivers behind making a training change like this and how she is handling it mentally.

Whether your interests lie in training and program design for hybrid training or in the more personal side of things, this episode is for you.

In my first solo episode, I (Meredith) step behind the mic to reflect on the tension between joy, guilt, and real resistance. This show dives into the nuance of emotional substitution and how feel-good phrases like “Joy is Resistance” can unintentionally bypass the real work of activism.

We will explore what true resistance looks like (spoiler: it’s not always comfortable), and how we can hold both joy and responsibility without confusing the two.

I'm going to challenge you to build your emotional capacity, reflect on your guilt, and start engaging with real sustained action.

You don’t need to agree, you just need to stay curious.

Topics Covered:


The myth of "joy as resistance"


Baldwin, Lorde, and the call for responsibility


Emotional partitioning (hello, divided plate metaphor!)


Guilt vs. action in the face of injustice


What real resistance actually looks like

🎧 This is one to share—especially with someone who’s been struggling to find clarity in the chaos.

In this episode, I sit down with Kristi Mohn to talk about the 20 year anniversary of Unbound Gravel, the impact of community and local flavor on race longevity, and why the work for women and diversity is always worth doing. We talk about leadership in every day life and the power of subtle influence that occurs independent of platform size.

Kristi has some very cool new things coming up including a gravel training camp called Training Grounds in Patagonia, AZ in late February that's meant to help riders get ready for the big spring classic races like Mid South and Unbound. You can learn more about Training Grounds here:
