No one understands what it takes to navigate life and career transitions better than NFL veteran, sports broadcast host, and content creator Isaac Rochell. He joins Vic to get real about navigating life after football, redefining who you are beyond your job, and confronting the food and body image struggles men rarely talk about. The former Notre Dame standout opens up about life in the league, from tough coaching dynamics and the constant fear of getting cut to walking away from the NFL and building a new career in media. Vic and Isaac also dive into supporting a wildly successful partner (and being proudly known as “Mr. Kuch”), becoming a girl dad of two, and the GLP-1 conversation entering sports culture. Tune in for a grounded, transparent conversation about athlete identity, career reinvention, and healing your relationship with food.

The Mind Architect, Peter Crone, is here for a life-changing conversation about how to unlock the subconscious beliefs holding you back and reclaim peace and presence in your life.

He shares simple, grounding tools to calm anxiety, get out of worst-case-scenario mode, and be more present with the people and life right in front of you. The episode wraps with a real-time one-on-one session where Peter helps Vic uncover a subconscious belief or “lie” that’s been quietly holding her back, giving you a front-row seat to the work that creates real, lasting change.
