Lessons From 36 to 37, Parenting, Habits & Growing Up

In Episode 15 of the DAILYdEPOSITS Podcast, David and Troy sit down for a long-form conversation that starts light but gradually opens up into deeper reflections about life, parenting, health, and personal growth. Throughout the episode we discuss: • What changes as you move from your mid-30s into your late-30s • How becoming a parent changes your perspective • The difference between how many of us were raised vs. how we want to raise our kids • Why communication with children matters more than “because I said so” • How habits around food, sugar, and lifestyle affect energy and health • The importance of self-awareness and breaking generational patterns • Slowing down and appreciating simple moments like sunsets and beach days • The DAILYdEPOSITS mindset of constantly learning and evolving https://www.dailydepositx.com [https://www.dailydepositx.com]

Addiction, Fear & Who You Are Without Your Habits

What started as a check-in about staying consistent quickly turned into a deep dive into addiction, identity, fear, and the moments that force you to grow up. We’ve both walked away from alcohol and destructive habits — but not in the way people usually talk about it. No rehab. No 12-step program. No dramatic announcement. Just moments that hit hard enough to change something. This isn’t about preaching sobriety. It’s about accountability. It’s about identity. It’s about choosing to become someone better — even when it’s uncomfortable. If this episode helps one person pause, reflect, or make a better decision today… we did our job.

Community in Action & Our First Outdoor Podcast

Episode 013 of the DAILYdEPOSITS Podcast was recorded outdoor in Playa Del Rey — right after one of our last beach cleanup. David and Troy reflect on the energy of the day, the locals who showed up, and what it means to build real community without overcomplicating things. From simplifying the cleanup process to learning from past frustrations, this episode is about showing up, staying consistent, and letting intention lead. This isn’t about optics. It’s about action.

Fatherhood, Creativity & Micro Battles | Sam Orellana (Death Club)

In this episode of DAILYdEPOSITS, we sit down with Sam Orellana — comic book illustrator, content creator, and the mind behind Death Club — for a real 2-hour conversation on creativity, business, fatherhood, and the mental side of building something from scratch. We talk about everything from growing up in LA and finding your lane, to the realities of selling art, using Kickstarter, and learning how to stay calm through pressure — on the mat and in life. This episode is for anyone trying to build a life, build a brand, and still show up for the people who depend on them.

Vulnerability, Awareness & Pacing Yourself

In this episode of the DAILYdEPOSITS Podcast, David and Troy sit down for an honest, wide-ranging conversation about vulnerability, awareness, pacing life, and learning how to be present. What starts with coaching kids’ soccer and everyday life responsibilities slowly opens into something deeper — how our personalities shape the way we communicate, how vulnerability can be both a strength and a risk, and why learning to slow down might be one of the most important skills we can develop as adults. They unpack the tension between talking too much vs. holding back, the fear of being misunderstood, and the importance of choosing where and with whom we open up. The conversation also touches on ambition, gratitude, comparison, and the danger of chasing success without learning how to enjoy the moment you’re in. This episode is a reminder that growth doesn’t always mean doing more — sometimes it means pausing, reflecting, and appreciating what’s already here. Key themes from this episode: * Coaching kids & learning patience * Vulnerability vs. oversharing * Speaking up vs. staying silent * Awareness as the first step to change * Pacing yourself instead of burning out * Gratitude for simple, everyday things * Building community with intention * Staying present while still having goals
