💪 Josh Jacobs is expected to have another monster season with limited competition for carries.

⚠️ Fantasy managers should stay cautious with Derrick Henry and Devona Chain due to age and offensive struggles.

🌍✨ Travel Spots You’ll Love Twice (Wanderlust Wednesday | August 20, 2025)

Have you ever stepped off a plane, looked around, and thought… “One trip here will never be enough”? Some destinations simply refuse to be “checked off” a list. They call you back—again and again—with new flavors, sights, cultures, and experiences waiting around every corner.

In this week’s Wanderlust Wednesday episode of the Two For The Win Podcast, Nick and Wil unpack exactly why some places demand repeat visits. Drawing from both personal adventures and client stories, they spotlight destinations that reward travelers not just once, but twice (and sometimes more). From the mountains of New Zealand to the streets of Rome, from safaris in Africa to the modern luxury of Dubai, this conversation will inspire you to rethink how you plan your bucket list.

🌏 Key Takeaways You’ll Love:

New Zealand: Two islands, two personalities. The North and South offer such unique landscapes that one trip just won’t cut it.

Italy: Culture, history, food—Italy is the #1 repeat destination for travelers. While Rome, Florence, and Amalfi Coast are musts, return visitors dive deeper into Venice, Milan, Lake Como, or the underrated east coast.

Greece: Gorgeous, yes. But for many, a one-and-done. It’s enjoyed fully once without the pull to return.

Croatia: A true hidden gem. Its coastlines and culture surprise visitors so much they find themselves booking return tickets.

Japan: Tradition and innovation collide, making it a destination people love to revisit as new layers unfold each time.

London & Barcelona: Cities that never stop giving. Every trip unlocks new neighborhoods, flavors, and stories.

Madrid, Lisbon, Prague, Amsterdam: European cities that mix food, culture, and nightlife in ways that beg for repeat exploration.

African Safaris: Each region has its own wildlife, landscapes, and cultures. No safari is ever the same twice.

South Africa: A perfect blend of history, culture, and safari—often paired with other African experiences.

Dubai: More than luxury. Visitors return for its safety, hospitality, and surprisingly diverse food culture.

Alaska: Usually a once-in-a-lifetime cruise, but adding a land extension makes it unforgettable.

Las Vegas: For Nick and Wil, always a repeat stop. 🎰

⏳ The Biggest Lesson:

Don’t wait until retirement to travel. Life is uncertain, and the best time to build memories is right now.

So ask yourself: Would you rather revisit a favorite spot, or chase somewhere brand new? Comment below—we’d love to hear your thoughts.

Leadership Lessons in Mental Rehearsal (Monday Mindset | August 18, 2025)

Have you ever walked into a high-stakes meeting, interview, or presentation and felt your mind suddenly go blank? 😶 It happens to even the best leaders. But here’s the difference: those who excel under pressure don’t “wing it”—they rehearse it.

In this Monday Mindset episode, Nick and Wil dive into how mental rehearsal, visualization, and scenario planning can transform the way you lead under stress. 💡 Drawing insights from Navy SEAL training, pro sports psychology, and real-world leadership, they reveal how preparation shapes performance when everything is on the line.

Too often, leaders assume confidence comes naturally. The truth? Confidence is trained. Just like athletes practice game-day situations, leaders can “train their minds” to face boardroom challenges, client negotiations, and difficult team conversations.

✨ Key Leadership Takeaways from the Episode:
💪 Preparation reduces stress and sharpens effectiveness in pressure-packed situations.
🧭 Scenario planning makes you agile—ready for unexpected outcomes.
🧠 Visualization “tricks” your brain into building calm confidence, just like physical practice.
🎭 Role-playing tough conversations equips you for a range of reactions and outcomes.
🗣️ Asking open-ended questions like “help me understand” or “tell me more” can defuse tension and unlock insights.
🔥 Confidence is contagious—your team feeds off your conviction.
🎯 Tailoring your message to your audience multiplies your impact.
🌍 Mental rehearsal works best when you simulate real environments and curveball scenarios.
🔁 Repetition isn’t boring—it’s mastery. It builds both skill and confidence, making high-stakes moments feel natural.

Leadership is not about avoiding pressure. It’s about preparing for it. When you mentally rehearse, you turn fear into focus, stress into strategy, and anxiety into action. 🚀

👉 Whether you’re an executive, business owner, or rising professional, this episode is your blueprint for thriving under pressure.
