If you could go back in time 10 years and tell yourself everything that was going on in your life today - would your past self believe it? Kari and Paul kicked off the past decade by experiencing almost all of the top stressors in life, and their marriage barely survived the process. In this episode Kari and Paul share their highest and lowest moments of the last 10 years and touch on the biggest lessons they learned. 

From our family to yours, we wish you an incredible New Year celebration and all the best for 2020 and beyond! 

12 thirty-day challenges in a row? Check. 6 fifteen-hour days with Tony Robbins? Yup. Kari and Paul look back on the 12:30 Challenge and their epic trip to Date With Destiny in this week's episode, sharing lessons learned, wins, fails, and why Tony Robbins loves loud music and laser beams! Happy Holidays Everyone!

Since 2003, 80% of Canadian Olympic athletes have shared a common trait, they've been supported by the Canadian Athletes Now Fund - the game changing inspiration of Jane Roos. On this episode we catch up with Jane and her extremely athletic husband Conrad Leinemann (former beach volleyball pro), to find out how and why the fund was created and gather inspiration from this incredible couple who've raised over $40,000,000 in support of Canadian athletes! Given that it's the season of giving, now is the ideal time to contribute to CAN Fund and support the next wave of Canadian Olympic stars and hopefuls.

Taking yourself to the next level (in any realm) takes commitment, a desire to learn, humility and help. Kari is always on the lookout for anything that can take it up a notch and in this episode we share our secret for getting a nitrous boost to the next stage. 

It's December which means it's the final challenge in our year of 30 day challenges - aka the 12:30 Challenge. This month's challenge is all about THE JAR. What is the JAR you ask?  It is how you will be accountable for the crummy habit you want to break.

Do you swear more than you'd like?  Do you want to workout more?  Do you forget to pack a lunch?  Or want to bicker less with your spouse?  

You make the call- decide what you want to make a change with and do it for 30 days!  

Once you know what you want to change... then, put your money where your mouth is.  How much will go into the jar when you "swear" or do the thing that you pick? 

It is the season of giving so once you've contributed to your jar, commit to donating it to a charity or organization you want to support at this special time of year!

It's a voice you're sure to know - Mark Lee, veteran of 14 Olympic games. Mark has covered a variety of Olympic sports during his career, including Athletics, Women’s Hockey, Figure Skating, Beach and Indoor Volleyball and Cycling. At home, Lee covered the Canadian Football League for 17 years and called the play-by-play of three Grey Cup Championships in 2005, 2006 and 2007 - the highlight being the memorable 2005 overtime championship between Montreal and Edmonton. He was also CBC’s play-by-play voice on western national games of Hockey Night in Canada from 2007-2014. Lee has won multiple broadcasting awards, including 2 Geminis (now Canadian Screen Awards), 2 ACTRAs and 2 silver medals at the New York Festivals. His play-by-play commentary of women’s hockey at Sochi 2014, included Team Canada’s dramatic come-from-behind overtime victory over the USA in the gold medal game. The broadcast won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Live Sports Event. His commentary of Athletics at the 2016 Rio Olympics earned him a nomination for a Canadian Screen Award for Best Sports Play-by-Play. The Empowered Athlete Podcast is thrilled to welcome Mark Lee to the show.

Last month I interviewed Kari, picking her brain for her top strength and conditioning tips. This month the tables are turned and Kari interviews me on my daily routine. From sleeping to eating and everything in between, Kari's questions reveal so many things that I don't even realize I'm doing, to help me stay healthy, active and going strong. Hopefully, you can take away one or two ideas to incorporate into your daily routine and see a difference in your performance!
