Growing up my mom would hear drawers and closets opening and closing and see me scrambling around the house and call out, "What are you looking for?" Whether it was my hat, keys, wallet or shoes, she always somehow knew where things just were. It's safe to say I have lived many of my childhood dreams. As a kid, I dreamed of being a skeleton athlete and a firemen. I've got the crayon drawings to prove it. Twenty some years later, I've checked those boxes but what they didn't tell me back then is that it wouldn't fill up my life. I have always lived my life with an obvious next goal, at least till now. Retired from sports, happily married and working as a professional firefighter, I'm not sure what is next. I'm on a journey to find out what people are looking for in this life in hopes that maybe one of them has the answer for me too. Join me as I catch up with old friends and make some new ones. We will have current and former athletes, religious leaders and heads of business, artists and creatives.

Jimmy Nguyen is looking for purpose.
<p>Jimmy Nguyen is former college football player turned USA Skeleton Development Athlete. Jimmy found competitive sports in high school so it makes his success and achievements all the more impressive. His love of football took him to Endicott College and post graduation, seeking the next competitive challenge a late night watching the Sochi Olympics spurred a dream and a journey that would take him to the Lake Placid Olympic Training Center. Jimmy was the ideal teammate and competitor. As a first generation American he learned a no quit attitude from his parents that helped him rise and train in athletics. He is a guy who lives with convictions that guide how he carries himself. We talk about his "leave it better than you found it" attitude that has moved outside of just the away team locker room and into his life and relationships. He has certainly left my life better than he found it and I'm excited to share this conversation with you. We talk sports, mental health, coaching younger athletes and his family's recent IVF journey. Jimmy has no quit in him and this conversation made me want to do some things differently in my life. </p><br><p>Links: </p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/builtwithchocolatemilk/videos/1751654698187954/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A Day In The Life</a></p><p><a href="https://www.ispot.tv/ad/wMf1/built-with-chocolate-milk-meet-jimmy-nguyen-skeleton-racer" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Jimmy's Chocolate Milk Commercial</a></p><p><a href="https://www.itscourtneyandmike.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Our Travel Blog</a></p><p><a href="www.instagram.com/itscourtneyandmike" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a></p><p><a href="https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/1lmv4s" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Music</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Veronica Day is looking for the simple things.
<p>On Episode 1 of What Are You Looking For? Mike sits down with his friend and former skeleton teammate, Veronica Day. Veronica talks about her time as a skeleton athlete, her work helping current and former professional athletes find work and enjoying the simple things. We talk about how the current trend of hustle culture has become toxic and side hustles can be a drag. Veronica retired from skeleton and now lives in Telluride with her partner who is also a former athlete. After years of adrenaline seeking, sliding at 80+ miles per hour down ice tracks, she is now humbling herself and learning to ski the green runs. </p><br><p>Mentioned in the show: </p><p>The Via Ferrata in Telluride: https://www.telluride.com/activity/via-ferrata/</p><p>Epidemic Sounds: https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/1lmv4s</p><p>Our Travel Site: www.itscourtneyandmike.com</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
