Formerly known as "The Lifestyle Chase", Chasing Common Ground is a purpose-driven podcast that doesn't fit into one box or category. The mission is to help listeners find common ground with a variety of guests and solo topics and progress in life year over year rather than simply staying the same. chrisliddle.substack.com

Episode 60 - Louis Guarino
Life is too short to pay bills and die. Louis is another new friend from Toronto who I met at the Kansas City Fitness Summit. If you don't know who he is, you should look him up. He's good people. Louis and I talked about depression, therapy, religion, dogs, rice and beans, diversity, New York, Toronto, relationships, detention, impressing girls with cool tricks, and body image. I think you'll want to listen to this one. Louis has really established himself as a fitness professional and leads his life in such a way that it is not about what we've been through, but more about what we'll get through. I hope you listen to this one, share it, and hug one of your good friends today. Or at least give them a fist bump. Available on all podcast platforms. Thank you for your continuous support!

Episode 59 - Caitlin Perry
Caitlin Perry and I actually recorded this episode last week. We visited over waffles and everything. Then there were dropouts in the audio over some pretty meaningful context that we spoke about. So we ended up having to reschedule and have a completely different conversation. I also got pancakes. A highlight is I am slowly getting to spend time with each of my friend's dogs. I hope you enjoy this episode as Caitlin is a truly good human being. Please share this with someone you think might also enjoy our conversation. Thanks for all the support!

Episode 55 - Chan Rin
Chan Rin has known me for about 3 years and interviewed me when I came onboard with the YEG Fitness team. He rode in my first indoor cycle class that I taught as well as one of the last ones. He's featured me in some of his projects and always been a quick text away if I ever felt like I needed to stress about small business and working to make things work. He's seen my entire career unfold. He's a great guy to have in your corner. If I need someone to judge character, Chan comes to mind. He is a no bullshit kind of guy. He's done amazing things for the Edmonton photography industry, one of my best friends goes to his Chan's UrbanYeg meetups and honestly to see how people with a passion can learn to thrive in their craft is pretty special. You should listen to this one. Hope you enjoy. Available on all major podcast platforms. Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

Episode 54 - Nick Sorrell
Nick Sorrell is no stranger to podcasts. However, my podcast is not like other podcasts he's been on.We talked about the tough moments, the moments where he's felt joy, the 16 year old version of himself, we talked about addictions, eating disorders, heart break, moments of complacency, moments of uncertainty. We also talked about NF a little bit, because duhh. We chatted about our favourite things about Dean Guedo in a sneaky effort to lure him into listening, and we talked about how generosity can be selfish sometimes, and that is okay. Hope you listen to this one! Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

Episode 52 - Emily Heidinger
Doing things the hard way. This is something that Emily and I have each had to do a lot in our lives. We go off on a lot of tangents on this one, we talk about Emily's high school experience, her passion and the trials and tribulations of swimming. If you think this episode is long, you should consider the fact that we didn't even got onto the topics of the mountains or music festivals and that is truly the magical thing about making time and putting people first. This episode comes with 2 challenges that I set out for anyone who listens. At the beginning I ask that anyone who listens, try to pick out 3 things that resonated with you or that you related to. Send them to me either by email chris@invigoratetraining.com or tag me on social media (@christianliddle, @thelifestylechase). It's so valuable to be able to get something out of everyone you meet or listen to. We put so much value on the books we can read, but when is the last time we stopped to see what someone right in front of us has to offer. This is why businesses thrive off community. Social media feeds of that feeling of community. Don't lose sight of the fact that community is staring you right in the face. Excellent segway to challenge number two... At the end of the episode I challenge you to make time for someone you don't see regularly. A family member, a friend, someone who seems interesting or maybe even someone you look up to. Make it in person if possible, but if it needs to be a video chat, do that too. If you feel adventurous, tell me about that too. I like to think all of this preaching of "people first" is picking up some momentum.The Lifestyle Chase is available on all major podcast platforms, easily searchable on google. There are well over 50 amazing people to learn about and it is truly something I value greatly. I can never thank my listeners enough for the support, and I hope you enjoy this one.
