Chasing Common Ground: Lifestyle Conversations with Chris Liddle

This episode was really fun because Chelsey is just such a genuinely positive person. Like anyone she burns out and has bad days but her attitude encourages people to show up with their best foot forward as often as possible. Attitude and Gratitude are our buzzwords on this one. #Grateful.Something I have always admired about Chelsey's attitude is that she has able to take on every opportunity she has been offered with the right attitude. It's gotten her a lot of really amazing opportunities very quickly in her career and will continue to help her as she adapts alongside a constantly changing industry. We chat about all kinds of things with a big focus on social media platforms like Instagram and LinkedIn. We also chat about some people who have really helped her show up in life and the exciting experiences she has had through meeting the people she's surrounded by. It's all about finding happiness and we both agreed that happiness does not come from nice cars and big houses. If you ever want to play a pickup game of Shinny, give Chelsey a shout. She's always ready to go. Call me up too if you do. I need someone that can teach me how to stop. Make sure to give this one a listen. I really appreciate when people leave a 5 star review on iTunes or share the Episode on social media. It helps me build an audience and spread my positive message to more people. Hope you enjoy!

Episode 19 is with a guest that I planned to host from the start. He's a rock solid dude both literally and figuratively. Jordan Jeske has appeared on 3 other podcasts already, so you will be able to hear a lot of his story and get a different perspective by giving his name a good old fashioned google on the ol' iTunes. I guess that would be a search though.In any case, Jordan has always demonstrated a great deal of integrity and has a pretty big heart. Not mentioned in this episode are his initiatives to support causes close to his heart. He goes above and beyond for a lot of meaningful causes.Jordan and I spend a lot of time talking about family, goals, and just the art of being a trainer and a normal happy friendly human being at the same time.Thank you for giving this one a listen, and if you enjoy, I really appreciate it when people help get the word out there.   Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

It's amazing what can happen in a person's life and how they can be tested. It's inspiring when a person's hero is their child.  Episode 18 was with Tracey Kalbfleisch sitting down on a couple mats in the middle of her studio at Sculpted Finery in Sherwood Park.I promised some links to help tell the story so here they are:Jason Gregor's Articlehttps://oilersnation.com/2018/11/07/a-love-of-hockey-helps-healing/CTV Coveragehttps://edmonton.ctvnews.ca/love-for-hockey-carries-14-year-old-through-two-tumours-1.4176030Donate to the Stolleryhttps://www.stollerykids.com/ways-to-give/donation-options.aspxDonate to Glenrosehttps://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/7665Get your old hockey sticks over to Peyton Kalbfleisch and place an order to support his passion and cause. All of the contact info is in the podcast and I am hoping they'll be able to get a website up soon. I gave them some tips haha. I could tell you all about this episode and how we covered the topics of fitness, health, family, kids, social media, bullying, mental health, motivation, tough moments. I could tell you that this was one of the heaviest year's of Tracey's life. Or you could listen. This one was really good. It will leave an impact on anyone.    Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

Rob Clark is someone I consider to be a very close friend. He is definitely an individual with a lot of depth to his story and a great human at that. Rob is someone I like to call "good people". You know his heart will always be in the right place and for that reason he has had a lot of big hearted people gravitate into his life. You get to learn that Rob is not just the Edmonton Oilers Anthem Singer, and he actually has about 46 other things that he does. We talk about a charity that is really important to Rob and his family and the link to get more info or support it can be found at https://www.casaservices.org/ .Let me know what you think! I always greatly appreciate the shares these episodes get through social media and the 5 star ratings on iTunes so I just want to say thank you for all of the support!

For this episode I wanted to enlighten my listeners on energy healing and what Amber does. Amber Kupina has been creating a community where people can be comfortable with the idea of working on themselves. Her style of healing is very reliant on the people involved being open to the process. We hang out with Frank and Shaggy, and talk all about healing and how it is integrated into her life and the lives of those around her.Amber lives a very balanced lifestyle staying fit and eating nutritiously and has some very exciting goals planned for her future. We held her accountable on a few of them so give it a listen so you can call her out. Make sure to give this one a listen, and let me know what you think.As always, all the shares on social media and five star ratings on iTunes are helping me build the audience for this project. My goal is to help more people to be better people through hearing the stories of others.  Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

Patrycia is extremely busy, but she made time for this on short notice and I think it says a lot about the kind of person she is. I really enjoyed chatting with her and I think that's an amazing thing about being the host of this podcast.In this episode we talk about how MS has affected her life and how she makes the most of every opportunity that happens to her. There is a lot of really good conversations you'll want to hear. I want to include some resources early in the description so that they don't get overlooked:https://mssociety.ca/https://www.storyhive.com/project/show/id/3953I think of all the people I know, Patrycia does one of the best jobs of being a good human being. This episode talks a lot about her life with MS but it's the kind of conversation that anyone can be a part of.Being grateful for opportunity, feeling your emotions, needing community are all important takeaways. This was another one where a bunch of people got shout outs. If you are enjoying these podcasts, it really makes my day to see them get shared on social media. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy this one.   Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

As you will soon catch on, we were running for this whole podcast. Literally, running. Michael is a pretty cool guy who is up to some amazing things. He is successful in his business but life has shown him the true pursuit of happiness and he spends his days working on his commitment to #makebeautifulshithappen . You're going to learn more about his story, but there's a lot that we didn't get to talk about so make sure that you check out www.mikecameron.caIn addition, we didn't get a chance to talk about this but for two years in a row now, Mike has organized an Ignore No More Run. It's worth looking up. This past year it was in support of the SAIF society. We learned today that if you want the podcast to be shorter than an hour, you just have to make it a running podcast. As always, this podcast is available through the link in my bio or by searching The Lifestyle Chase on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, or Google Play.

In memory of Faisel and Loma and the many others we lose to cancer, please reflect on how you will carry on the legacy of your loved one. https://www.albertacancer.ca/donatehttp://www.kidswithcancer.ca/how-can-you-help/donate/Farha and Naheed have seen me completely reinvent myself over the years and chase my goals relentlessly. They are huge supporters in my life and so it was really fun to spend some time with them and the kids (AND FUSCHIA!!) for this podcast. Farha is a high performing individual with her Doctorate in Education. When she isn't educating at the University of Alberta, she unwinds and gains clarity through instructing and coaching spin and boxing at Cyclebar and Champs boxing studio. Naheed has done very well for himself as a businessman and accountant. With a balanced approach geared towards making the people around him perform at their best, he has found a lot of success in creating strong teams and being innovative as often as possible.We talk about everything from fitness to family to the tough things that life throws at us, the tough decisions and the fact that Naheed has more shoes than Farha. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy this one!Original Picture Credit: Hannah Hamilton Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

Have you ever took a big jump in your life simply based on a strong self belief? A gut feeling?I really enjoyed getting to chat with Kristina because she has a strong sense of self belief which has been a very empowering characteristic for her. She is also really good at being herself which is extremely important. She balances her business, her family, and maintains an active and healthy lifestyle all while always striving to be better. We talk about the dragon that burnt up the yellow brick road, and we talk about the new Netflix series called "Hey It's Me KB" where they don't ever show KB until the last episode of the 9th season (kind of like a new How I Met Your Mother). I kid - I kid. Let's face it though, we'd all watch the show, I mean you're listening to this podcast because of the KB and Co Instagram account. Let's be honest! hahaI think you knew this was going to be a good episode, so I hope you are already giving it a listen. Let us know what you think!  Get full access to Insight by Chris Liddle at chrisliddle.substack.com/subscribe

We turned the table on this one. Kelsey interviews me and asks some of the questions about me that not everyone knows the answers to. We talk about all of the topics I generally ask my guests, and go down the rabbit hole of where my fitness journey-turned career began. I hope you enjoy this one.
