This week we have Luke Williams, Major League Baseball player for the Atlanta Braves join the show. Luke was originally drafted out of high school to the Philadelphia Phillies and eventually debuted with them in 2021. Since then, he has made appearances with numerous teams, such as the Giants, Marlins and Dodgers. Luke and I had a brief stint together in San Francisco in the summer of 2022. One of my first memories of Luke was a hike in Cleveland, Ohio. He didn’t talk much, but he had a camera with him as I observed him observing. I noticed a calm presence and keen eye for nature. His awareness and depth of thought sparked my curiosity. We became friends and have stayed in touch ever since. The guy is a speedster on the diamond but a stoic in thought. We discussed flow state, maturity, and evolution of performance. Enjoy this discussion with the California native.

This passion we shared built a beautiful friendship but also pushed us to grow our thinking.

| 014 - Lewis Brinson - First-Round Draft Pick, MLB Baseball Player, Entrepreneur and Creator | 24 févr. 2025 | 01:09:51 | |
Welcome back to this week's episode with Lewis Brinson. The 2012 first-round draft pick by the Texas Rangers out of high school. Lewis was a highly touted prospect in high school before finding himself in the draft. He then carried that status to the Major Leagues when he debuted in June 2017. Eventually, he took his game overseas and played in Japan before finishing up in Mexico. I briefly interacted with Lewis a few years ago in California and instantly gravitated to his vibe. He has an enthusiasm about him that is hard not to appreciate. Fortunately, we reconnected this past winter and found time to converse. The recently retired ball player took his curiosity to entrepreneurship and creation. Whether his endeavors lead down the path of speaking or creating community, it's hard not to admire the life he brings to his craft. Lewis has traveled the world playing ball, experiencing pressures and circumstances that many athletes do not. I thoroughly enjoyed walking through the path and listening to him describe awareness. His ability to articulate stories and scenarios that occurred in his career, making him who he is today, inspires anyone. Finding ourselves within our journey brings us closer to our voice. The most authentic version of who we are. I feel this conversation expressed that. One Love.

Welcome back to another episode. This week's guest is Xavier Scruggs. Mr. Scruggs is a former Major League Baseball Player who turned his career into broadcasting and media content. His story is inspiring, as you learn to admire his connection to intuition. He is curious, open-minded, and well-articulated. Xavier peels into his path after sports and how he narrowed down his training to become a fluent speaker. His presence is engaging, and for these reasons, it's obvious he found early success following his playing days. Throughout the conversation, we dive into various topics around performing, exploration, and finding authenticity. Xavier has inspired me not only because of his achievements but also because of his faith, obedience, and values as a father. He maintains such clarity as he navigates the world, and I feel that this will be emphasized throughout the show. Enjoy getting to know this man, especially if you're into baseball. There is a high likelihood you will hear his voice regularly around the stadiums of America this summer.

In this episode, we bring the big lefty, Alex Wood. Alex is well thought out and observant of the world around him. Fortunately, I've been able to know him for a few years now, and considering guests for the show, Woody was a no-brainer. Alex has accumulated 12 Major League Baseball Seasons so far in his career and has been to three World Series, winning one of them with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2020. A Major League All-Star, we dive deep into the intentions behind discipline. He brings a tenacity and focus to his craft that is primarily credited to the mundane consistency of following the process. However, the articulation of breaking down experiences continuously stands out to me when speaking with him. It's hard to substitute experience under extreme pressure in any field, and Alex has had a front-row seat to some of the most intense environments created in sports. Alex has a soothing aura in those paramount moments as he attributes his success to the basic principles of focusing attention on daily work.Alex Wood

In this episode, we had the opportunity to sit down with 14-year Major League Veteran Mr. Brandon Crawford. I first met Brandon in 2021 with the San Francisco Giants. He was a veteran in the clubhouse and a staple at shortstop for the organization. His sustainability created 1,617 starts at the position and set a franchise record while being the only shortstop to start 12 opening days for the team. His accolades and milestones are well deserved and provide insights into his iconic career. However, his approach to the game and life truly stands out when you hear him speak. His ability to know who he is, keep things simple, and live from a place of virtue are what inspires. Listen carefully as Brandon describes moments of adversity and how he handled turmoil. We rarely have a moment to peel into the mind of a master, incredibly fresh off a retirement and a life he knew for so long. When we sit back, we realize how he kept the main thing, the main thing. These lessons and tokens of wisdom pour over us immensely throughout the show.

| Mini Series - JP Martinez - Major League Pitching Coach of the San Francisco Giants | 30 déc. 2024 | 00:32:51 | |
Episode 6- The mini-series "The Art of Something" comes to a finish with my good friend Jp Martinez. It's hard to put into words what this guy means to me. I first met Jp on a phone call near the end of 2020. I was anticipating a role with the San Francisco Giants; he was the assistant pitching coach then. I believe he thought we were having a short introduction, whereas I was under the impression we were having an interview. Needless to say, he asked me about a specific certification I had on my resume. I had no idea what the certification was, and my heart started to beat so quickly that I figured I just needed to tell him the truth. I told him to disregard it and told him I didn't know what it was (I did pass the test for the certification, just so you know). He genuinely laughed, and it was at that moment that I knew I would love the guy. Over the next four years, he would become my big brother and a man I grew deep reverence for. We spent every day of spring training meditating during sunrise from 2021 to 2024. In those moments, I got to experience this man's depth and wisdom. He is calm yet tenacious. Patient but competitive. His ability to listen is second to none, but what stands about above all within his leadership is that he cares. He has since become the head pitching coach for the San Francisco Giants and will lead their staff during the 2025 campaign. A forever student, sit back and enjoy my conversation with Mr. Miyagi of coaching, Mr. Jp Martinez. One Love Harv | |||
| Mini Series - Alex Easby - Performance and Breathwork Coach Working with Impact Founders and CEOs | 17 déc. 2024 | 00:33:51 | |
Episode 5 of the Mini-Series on The Art of Something is with my friend Alex Easby. I can't actually recall the moment I was introduced to Alex. I know it was a few years ago from a mutual friend I believe, but I can't give you the moment. To my memory, it was a classic situation where someone I knew wanted me to meet someone they knew. Either way, I ended up going on a podcast with him, and it was that incredible feeling where you felt at home communicating with a stranger. Alex has a soothing way of communicating about him and an openness that has always intrigued me. He is a master of his craft and shows tremendous care in his work. These traits were clearly evident to me when I first spoke to him and my admiration towards his pursuit has remained high ever since. When I had a window to interview a few people in the fall of 2023, Alex was the first to come to mind. I reached out to see his interest, and we immediately popped on for a podcast. As you will hear, he had been traveling and experiencing life. He shares wonderful stories and has such a unique way of articulating his perspective. It was an honor to record another show with Alex and I'm grateful we've sustained our friendship over the years. Enjoy my friends. One Love Harv | |||
| Mini Series - Jake Butt - BTN Football Analyst, Michigan 2x All-American and Former NFL Tight End | 10 déc. 2024 | 00:34:36 | |
Episode 4 - The Art of Something Mini-Series with the deep-thinking, curious brother of mine, Mr. Jake Butt. (@jakebutt) I first got in touch with Jake while he was playing with the Denver Broncos. What was supposed to be a quick phone call turned into a deep-dive conversation about life, the universe, and the reasoning behind our existence. I remember the moment distinctly. As I hung up the phone, I felt invigorated. From that day on, our friendship has only grown as we have shared some of the most profound and fulfilling conversations I’ve experienced on my journey with him. Jake has a funny way of enthralling the environment around him to feel inspired towards the potential of what they can be, what we all can be. I have been fortunate to experience this with Jake, as I’m sure you will feel similar during the conversation. After Jake’s playing days, I couldn’t help but admire his confidence in grabbing the reins and expanding into new avenues of thought and professionalism. He has since dove headfirst into the world of broadcasting and brought a level of intention that has profoundly impacted the game of football. All athletes will someday transition out of their sport. It is not specific to Jake, but he showcased courage in changing with the times. His ability to identify with both attachment and detachment is admirable for us all. One Love 🌎 | |||
| Mini Series - Alyssa Nakken - First Female MLB Coach, Current Assistant Director of Player Development with the Cleveland Guardians | 05 déc. 2024 | 00:34:38 | |
Episode 3 with Coach Nak! Let's talk about perspective. I had a front-row seat to history over the last few years while watching Alyssa break through the walls of Major League Baseball as the first female coach in the big leagues. I would never have been able to describe what this experience must have been like from her lens, nor would I ever try. We built a friendship, worked well together, and shared a curiosity for life that instantly gravitated me to her. I constantly asked the coach how she saw the world through the years. I couldn't wrap my head around what a Major League clubhouse looked like from the perspective of being a female. Alyssa is one of the brightest minds and the most intelligent and sound humans I've encountered. Her attributes are tremendous, but what stands out to me is her capacity to withstand adversity and change with such patience. I have never witnessed an individual holding such space daily where those around her could feel free to express themselves. Her courage in taking on a challenge inspires those around her, and from my vantage point, this leads to my immense gratitude for Coach Nak. Her strength in curiosity and resilience in compassion are incredible. I look forward to the many more conversations I share with coach over the years, and hopefully, a few more get recorded, but dive in and listen to my good friend and I rap for a bit.

| Mini Series - Brian Bannister - Senior Advisor to Pitching with the Chicago White Sox | 29 nov. 2024 | 00:36:21 | |
Episode 2 of The Art of Something Mini-Series is with my good friend Brian Bannister. I was fortunate to coach alongside Banny for a few years in San Francisco, and it was a true honor to pick the brains of a master such as Banny. The first time I saw him, he was hovering over a computer with his hood over his head. He was dialed on a pitcher's mechanics at a level I had never seen before. At that moment, he addressed me with a genuine smile and a presence that gravitated my soul toward his energy. However, I always wanted to pay respect to his precision and focus. Banny, whom I consider "Master Splinter," is one of the most unique and brilliant minds I've encountered. In this action-packed episode, we cover various topics around health and teaching. What I admire most about my friend is his willingness to remain curious. He is a tremendous conversationalist, but it stems from his passion for learning. Enjoy this episode. Thank you for your time and your love. One Love Brian Bannister- The Art of Baseball Twitter: @RealBanny Current Senior Advisor to Pitching- Chicago White Sox | |||
| Mini Series - Tyler Beede - MLB Pitcher and Co-founder of PitchSafe | 20 nov. 2024 | 00:30:50 | |
Hello friends, I did a mini-series of podcasts nearly a year ago during the fall of 2023. I recorded these with a 40-minute time restraint. The platform I used to record was only allowed for such a time. If you have followed my podcast in the past, you know I love raw, authentic conversation. I've never been one for scripts. These podcasts coming up are short, impactful, and fun. My friend Tyler Beede and I kicked off the mini-series. Ty and I met in 2021 during spring training with the San Francisco Giants. We bonded over breathwork and human performance. Our friendship was maintained as he went on to pitch for different teams across the Major Leagues and even had a stint in Japan. Enjoy this conversation with my friend Tyler. One Love Harv | |||

| #132 - Jessie Inchauspé, Glucose Goddess - Managing Glucose Spikes for Optimal Health | 09 déc. 2020 | 00:56:17 | |
Each day we make over 200 food decisions. As athletes, what we put in our bodies directly impacts our performance and the speed at which we recover from training or exercise. Glucose is used by the body for energy production, but too much of it and it begins to cause serious cell damage oftentimes leading to severe inflammation, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and poor tissue health. Glucose spikes are caused when too much sugar (glucose) is taken into the body at one time. The mitochondria become overwhelmed and the body produces free oxygen radicals that go and attack other cells. Glucose is a sugar/starch molecule in its simplest form, so think sugar, cookies, pastas, oats, among others. For years, athletes have been told to carb load before games or performance. But is it really all that good for us when we know that glucose spikes caused by eating too many carbs actually ends up hurting our bodies in the long run? The answer might surprise you. Join hosts Harvey Martin and Matt Arends as they chat with Jessie Inchauspe aka Glucose Goddess about the health impacts of glucose spikes, how to avoid them and flatten the glucose curve, and how to avoid the adverse effects the next time you go for that big bowl of pasta or oatmeal.
Check out the amazing studies by Jessie on her Instagram: @glucosegoddess She releases studies on how to best pair food, what tricks can help you stabilize spikes, and which foods cause larger spikes than others.
