The Powerhouse Mentality
We all have a story. My mission in life and with this podcast is to help you stop tolerating your own bullshit to finally win in life. This podcast will teach you how to become the best version of yourself; mind, body and soul.
When you never stop learning, keep the commitments you make to yourself and intentionally seek discomfort; you are truly limitless.
I'm here to show you through my story and the story of others that anything is possible when you are willing to suffer a little bit more.

Misfit Energy: The “Underrated” Energy Drink Doing It Right
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I sat down with Tom, one of the founders of Misfit Energy—a brand I keep calling underrated because they actually do energy drinks the right way.
We get into the real story behind Misfit: it started as an idea for flavored water, ran into major production issues, and turned into a full-on energy drink project that’s now years in the making. Tom breaks down why they chose to keep everything in-house (formula + flavor creation + production), how they think about using patented, well-studied ingredients with intention, and why they obsess over flavor so it hits like the real thing—without that weird diet aftertaste.
We also talk about the part nobody tells you: how hard it is to scale when major companies basically “own” coolers and shelf space, why marketing can beat quality in this industry, and how Misfit is trying to build a real cult following through grassroots creators and community-driven growth.
Plus: a sneak peek at what’s coming next, including an Energy Drink City collab flavor and how they decide what stays core vs what gets vaulted.
If you love energy drinks, business, branding, or seeing how a legit product gets built from scratch—this one’s for you.
