Rising Tribes Podcast
Welcome to the Rising Tribes Podcast — where raw conversations meet real growth.
Hosted by two former professional athletes turned husbands, fathers, and high-performance leaders, this is the podcast for people who look like they’ve got it all together… but still carry the silent weight of pressure, expectation, and self-doubt.
We talk about what most people only think about — the stuff that lives in your chest and keeps you up at night. From marriage and parenting to sex, business, faith, fitness, money, mental health, and the quiet battle of “am I enough?” — nothing is off-limits here.
Alongside our wives and powerful guests, we’re building a tribe of everyday warriors who are deeply rooted in character and relentlessly rising in every area of life.
This isn’t therapy. It’s not self-help fluff.
It’s honest, bold, unfiltered conversation — with people who get it.
Because the strongest tribes don’t fake it. They rise together.

EP 17: Turkey Trots, Fireballs & Holiday Chaos
This week on Rising Tribes, Nick and Brax get real about the holidays—what they used to mean, what they’ve turned into, and what actually matters.
From cold turkey trots and chaotic family gatherings to late-night talks about simplifying Christmas, they unpack the tension between giving gifts and creating moments.
Nick shares a heart-punch moment with his daughter that every dad needs to hear, and both guys reflect on how easy it is to drift from being in the moment to just checking the boxes.
If you’ve ever said, “I just want to slow down and be more present,” this episode will hit home.
It’s not about perfection—it’s about remembering what lasts.
