167: Inside My Mind in March 2026

The Nick Bare Podcast

Show Notes

This is a potentially new ongoing series I wanted to try. I'm calling it, "Inside My Mind."

The goal is to have more open and honest reflection into some of my personal thoughts and developments and have the podcast be the driver of that. Today, I'm opening up about what I’m building, what I’m processing, and what life feels like in this season. I share what we’re working on at BPN and how this chapter has me thinking differently about growth, leadership, and where my energy is going.

I also talk about how becoming a husband and father continues to change the way I see my work, my purpose, and the kind of man I want to be. This episode touches on the tension between what I say matters and how I actually live, learning to lead through example, enjoying training without a finish line in front of me, and trying to hold life with a little more gratitude and a little less seriousness. It’s a conversation about growth, patience, perspective, and who I’m becoming along the way.

Over the last 90 days, I lost about 10 pounds and got leaner without crash dieting, starving myself, avoiding social situations, or sacrificing my training and recovery. I did it by locking in - not through extreme restriction, but by narrowing my focus, reducing unnecessary decisions, and giving the process enough time to work.
