In the first-ever guest episode of Authenticity in Action, I sit down with CrossFit OG, coach of coaches, father, husband, and deep thinker Pat Barber. And we don’t just talk sets, reps, and whiteboard briefings — we go all in on the real stuff: what authenticity really looks like (hint: it’s messy), why coaches often miss the mark by trying to prove instead of connect, how fatherhood can crack you wide open, and why doing your own inner work is non-negotiable if you want to lead others.
This one’s honest, raw, vulnerable, and full of the kind of reflections that stay with you long after the headphones come off. Pat drops wisdom on identity, masculinity, self-trust, and the magic of showing up without the mask. If you’ve ever felt like you had to keep it together while falling apart inside — this one’s for you.
Subscribe, share, and strap in. This one hits deep.
Because authenticity isn’t just a vibe.
It’s a f*cking verb.
