This is an outstanding podcast and Ron is a consummate professional. What is great about this podcast is that Ron is already an expert in his field, yet shows wisdom by seeking more perspectives and sharing what he and other experts have learned. His interviews are engaging and informative and he knows how to guide the conversation. If you are looking for solid advice on how to face adversity and doing hard things, Forging Mettle is an excellent resource!

Ron has a wonderful way for bring the best out of his guests. This podcast makes you think, makes you ask questions and keeps you curious! A must listen!

I’m not just a recent guest, but I’m a listener, too. Ron puts hard work into bringing his audience great conversations about what it takes to get from “here to there.” We all know it takes mettle and drive to accomplish big things, and Ron and his guests talk frankly about their experiences and the lessons learned that we can all apply to our journeys. - David

I am a physician who loves listening to Ron. Very inspiring and interesting

Ron and Tara do a great job making these interviews engaging, educational and real. Definitely worth a listen!

Great interview - I thought the conversation back and forth was excellent and really liked hearing Amy’s perspective on leadership as a woman.

Really enjoyed this first installment! I’ve gotten to know one of the co-hosts, Ron pedaling alongside, ahead and behind of him in the eastern plains of Colorado during organized rides which aren’t only not flat but extremely windy! I’ve seen his mental and physical toughness and since then have watched him push to even more intense and deeper levels moving into Iron Man and endurance running. I’m looking forward to learning from these two and their guests!” [post-Episode 3 update]. I have loved the last 2 guests on episodes 2 & 3!🤓 Great stories, inspiration and education! As I’ve stated known Ron from Colorado’s Pedal the Plains weekend events, and he’s the real deal. I’m not just reviewing to support his new project here, but I am also really enjoying the episodes!👍👏👏👏
