Mark shares his journey from Newfoundland to London to New York, and how Cartography started almost by accident while he was on tour with Rufus Wainwright, collecting travel charms along the way. What began as a personal creative outlet turned into a real business after a Neiman Marcus buyer saw his pieces — presented in a Nike shoebox, no less — and placed an order.

We talk about learning business the hard way, figuring out the balance between making art that means something and creating pieces that actually sell, and how storytelling plays a role in everything he designs — even the slightly subversive pieces. Mark also opens up about ethical sourcing, donating proceeds to Brandi Carlile’s Looking Out Foundation, navigating rising metal costs, and how humor, music, home life, and vulnerability help him stay grounded while juggling multiple careers.

This conversation is about design, discipline, and trusting yourself — even when you’re building it as you go.

Anthony’s been coaching for over a decade (and owned a gym from 2019–2023), and his whole philosophy is simple: fitness is something you do with your body, not to it. Movement is foundational. It’s not punishment. It’s not all‑or‑nothing. It’s part of being alive.

We talk about how a ruptured appendix at 15 kicked off his health journey, why sustainable fitness starts with finding training you actually enjoy, and why the basics — strength training, walking, recovery, consistency — beat perfection every time.

If you care about:

• Strength training for longevity
• Sustainable weight loss
• Muscle building without burnout
• GLP‑1s like Ozempic and strength training
• Creatine and supplement myths
• Recovery tools that actually help
• Avoiding overhyped wellness trends

This one’s for you.

Not the highlight reel. Not the gym selfies. Not the “we should catch up soon” friendships.

I’m talking about the kind of friendship where someone tells you the truth. Where they hold you accountable. Where they show up — especially when it’s inconvenient.

In this episode of the MINDBODY Method Podcast, I sit down with one of my closest friends of 11 years — Adam, a podiatrist and surgeon — and we unpack what deliberate brotherhood really means.

Our story started in his NYC apartment when I was his trainer. Somewhere between workouts and late-night life talks, the relationship evolved into something deeper: trust, banter, hard conversations, and mutual growth.

We talk about:

• Why men need accountability in friendship
• How to build real connection beyond surface-level networking
• What it’s like to be a surgeon guiding patients through high-stakes decisions
• Informed consent, vulnerability, and showing up for people in their hardest moments
• How Adam decompresses after intense hospital days
• Balancing ambition with building a meaningful life outside of work

Adam also shares one of the biggest highlights of 2025 — getting married and bringing his entire family together in Portugal. We talk about what that season meant, how priorities shift, and what comes next.

And because I can’t help myself, we go deep into routines:

• Structured mornings
• Journaling practices
• Meditation (even if you “don’t meditate”)
• Ending negative self-talk
• Setting boundaries without guilt
• Sleep, gratitude, and frequency

We close with a rapid-fire round that somehow includes Antarctica, pride, mindset shifts, and living limitlessly.

This conversation is about men’s mental health.
 It’s about work-life balance.
 It’s about accountability and vulnerability.
 And it’s about building a life that feels bigger than your career.

Brotherhood isn’t accidental.
 It’s deliberate.

We talked about drive — what it actually is, where it comes from, and how not to let it run you into the ground.

Matt’s journey starts in Philadelphia selling gym memberships, moves through the early days of digital at Razorfish, and eventually leads him to healthcare marketing — a pivot shaped in part by his mom’s battle with rare cancer. That loss changed how he saw his work, his ambition, and his purpose.

We get into the real stuff:

• How childhood insecurity and growing up gay shaped his edge
• The mindset shift that helped him stop “snowballing”
• What burnout actually looks like at the CEO level
• Slowing down in small, intentional moments
• Why kindness is non‑negotiable in leadership

Matt shares what EQ leadership really means, why CEOs are often misunderstood, and how curiosity is the secret to longevity — not just in business, but in life.

For me, this episode is about redefining drive. Not hustle at all costs. Not ego. Not title-chasing.

Drive with intention.
 Drive with awareness.
 Drive without losing yourself.

If you care about leadership, ambition, mental resilience, or just being a better human while doing big things — this one’s for you.

• How to trust your intuition in career and relationships
• Signs it’s time for a life change

This episode explores career alignment, following your gut, entrepreneurship, creativity, and self‑discovery in your 20s and 30s — especially when your path doesn’t look linear.

We talk about his journey from Lubbock, Texas to New York City, his early days at Orangetheory, and the leap into entrepreneurship. 

But a big part of this conversation centers around identity. Trevor is an endurance athlete who recently faced a 16-week left femur bone bruise — an injury that forced him to confront what happens when your physical output, your edge, and your routine are suddenly stripped away. We talk about the psychological side of injury, the fear of losing momentum, and the tension between being “the athlete” and being “the business owner.”

He also walks through how he programs strength as “prehab” for runners, how he thinks about energy management as a coach, and the recovery tools he leans on: sauna and cold plunge protocols, compression, acupuncture, and dry needling.

And then we go deeper.

Trevor gives a candid account of his steroid use in his early 20s — why he started, the rapid gains, the health crash that followed, knee and gynecomastia surgeries, and the reality of dosing culture in competitive spaces. He shares the analogy he now uses with younger athletes and what he wants them to understand about short-term gains versus long-term costs.

This is a conversation about hustle — but also restraint. About growth — but also fragility. About pushing limits — and learning when to pull back.

If this episode resonates, share it with someone navigating injury, entrepreneurship, or chasing performance at any cost. And as always, subscribe, rate, and review — it helps us grow the show and keep these conversations going.

April shares how a difficult job during COVID left her feeling disconnected from her identity — and how that season pushed her deeper into mindfulness, therapy, and inner work. We talk about the mind–body connection as a two-way conversation: your body is always sending signals, but most of us aren’t listening.

We get into:

• How unhealthy relationships can pull you out of alignment
• Why healing isn’t linear
• The role of routines, discipline, and daily rituals
• Emotional availability in dating and marriage
• Building relationships rooted in safety and growth

I also break down my (very early) morning routine — yes, the 4AM wake-up — and why discipline creates freedom.

April shares powerful takeaways on resilience, self-worth, and what it really means to find peace.

If you’ve ever felt lost, misaligned, or stuck in comparison, this episode is about coming back to yourself.

We also explore Preston’s creative process, his deep love for home design, and how travel, daily routines, and self‑care play a role in sustaining long‑term inspiration. Along the way, we touch on lessons from the apparel business, navigating burnout, and staying grounded while expanding a brand.

If you’re building a career — or rethinking the direction of one — this conversation is about staying authentic, resilient, and aligned with what truly drives you.

Constantine opens up about trusting his instincts, reconnecting with joy in performance, and creating his own opportunities — including co-writing the original musical Titanique, which is heading to Broadway this Spring.

I’m your host, Josh Grimm, and every week, we’ll dive into what it truly means to build strength—not just in your body, but in your mind and most importantly your life.

From movement with purpose to cultivating a resilient mindset, this podcast is about empowering you to thrive in every aspect of your life—inside and outside the gym.

What began as a personal fitness journey turned into something much bigger after life‑changing experiences in Southeast Asia. Those moments reshaped how I view strength, health, and purpose — and ultimately inspired me to help others through coaching, training, and community.

In this inaugural episode, I walk you through the evolution of my company Fit Nut from a fitness brand into a holistic wellness movement, rooted in the belief that real strength isn’t just built in the gym — it’s built in the mind, body, and the choices we make every day.

Mind Body Method is about more than workouts. It’s about growth, resilience, vulnerability, and building a life that actually feels good. This podcast is my space to share meaningful conversations with coaches, athletes, and thought leaders who are living proof that mindset and movement go hand in hand.

If you’re ready to train smarter, think deeper, and connect with a community that values progress over perfection — you’re in the right place.

Let’s get into it.

New episodes drop every Wednesday.
