11 SEP 2024 · Ash Kalita (known as ashvandelay on social media) is a motorsports Twitch streamer and creator who joins me on this week’s episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. A fellow New Yorker who also went to one of the specialized public high schools, we immediately bonded over our similar backgrounds that unexpectedly led to careers in motorsports. Ash shares how her Polish heritage led her to root for Robert Kubica in Formula 1, how she found online communities through playing video games during the pandemic, and why she sets boundaries around parasocial relationships online. We also dive into the beauty of the community of women content creators in motorsports, abandoning internal misogyny, and the increase of brands advertising to women in motorsports. I ask Ash to share how she got her gig with Red Bull Oracle Racing, to which she emphasizes the importance of in-person face time and gives a pro-tip for working in corporate. Lastly, we touch on her approach to content creation, her role models in motorsports (shout out to Lyn St. James!) and we end with a rapid fire If You’re Honest.

28 AUG 2024 · This episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer dives into our first topic around the mental side of human performance: emotions and emotional intelligence. Historically, emotions were seen as a hindrance to success, and only recently are we shifting that ideology. Prompted by a David Brooks op-ed that explains how we actively need emotions to make good decisions, I dive into the benefits of properly processing and regulating emotions. I share Marc Brackett’s RULER Method of emotional processing, explain why I think it’s important to lean into negative emotions in order to drive change, and I share a potentially-controversial Instagram post from Dan Koe.

14 AUG 2024 · If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer is back for Season 3! In this episode, I give a recap and opinion on recent NASCAR, Formula 1, and Olympics news. I dive into why I’m bummed that Hailie Deegan isn’t racing full-time anymore, Lewis Hamilton’s comeback, and why it felt so important for USA Women’s Basketball to take the Gold Medal in the Olympics. I also address the fact that we are a mixed-allegiance household, with me rooting for the USA and my husband Ben rooting for France, and what that drama is like. I also share the new cadence for Season 3 of a new episode every other Wednesday and give a sneak peak into the theme of Season 3 solo episodes, which is human performance.

22 MAY 2024 · What makes team members feel secure enough to push boundaries? How does leadership style impact a team’s willingness to take risks in the pursuit of progress? A lot of this comes down to “psychological safety,” a term coined by Amy Edmondson.

So in this week’s episode of If I’m Honest, Julia Landauer explains what psychological safety is, how it relates to team member success, and how she’s incorporated the concept into working with racing teams.

8 MAY 2024 · Many athletes have a ritual they perform before competition. But why is that? In this episode of If I’m Honest, Julia Landauer explores why pre-competition rituals are so important for performance. Julia shares research from the University of Toronto that explains the effects rituals have on brain activity, she hypothesizes what happens if we don’t perform our rituals, and describes her own pre-race rituals. Julia also reached out to some of her racer friends to hear their pre-race rituals, which they generously shared via voice recordings.

1 MAY 2024 · Sports broadcasters are “armed with being good storytellers, delivering the facts, doing peoples’ athletic performances justice, and having fun,” according to NBC broadcaster Leigh Diffey. With over 25 years of international broadcast experience across many different sports, Leigh Diffey is a master storyteller on this week’s guest on If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. Discussing how broadcasting fell into his lap while in university, Leigh shares the moment he realized his natural enthusiasm for sports and competition organically translated to his announcing, keeping the audience engaged. Leigh explains the importance of having self-belief, the Aussie “Have A Go” mentality, as well as capitalizing on networking and nurturing relationships. Leigh describes how he lives for “the moment” of victory or failure in sports, and how that crescendo varies by sport. Julia and Leigh discuss the similarities between broadcasters and athletes, the technical elements of delivering a broadcast, and the delicate nature of needing to comment on controversies and tragedies, which both require empathy. Leigh closes out by sharing his pre-broadcast rituals, his distinction between being “on edge” and being “nervous,” and the one sport he hasn’t yet commented on that he’d like to.

24 APR 2024 · Taylor Swift released her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, on April 19, 2024. It wasn’t just a regular album, it was a double album (with The Anthology), spanning 31 songs and over two hours. As a Swiftie herself, Julia Landauer was really looking forward to this album and gives her opinions on TTPD on this week’s episode of If I’m Honest with Julia Landauer. Julia explains what she particularly loves about Taylor Swift’s songwriting, the pivotal song that broke down the fourth wall for her, and her ritual for listening to a new Taylor Swift album. Julia then dives into three songs that caught her attention on TTPD, one thing she really doesn’t like about Taylor Swift’s songwriting, and a specific lyric that marries Swifties and motorsports fans. Julia ends with some final thoughts on the album, including where TTPD lands on her Taylor Swift Album Hierarchy List. Patti Smith’s “Just Kids,” which Julia mentions: https://www.amazon.com/Just-Kids-Patti-Smith/dp/0060936223 Danielle Trotta’s episode with the quote, “don’t let people’s outsides affect your insides”: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/if-im-honest-with-julia-landauer/id1686900834?i=1000652706947 Learn more about Julia Landauer at https://julialandauer.com/ See https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
