If you've listened to the show for a while, you know I'm a big believer in functional mushrooms and adaptogens. So Mudwater made sense to me right away, because it gives you that morning ritual without the full caffeine hit. Their original blend is made with cacao, chai, turmeric, and functional mushrooms. It's got about 1 seventh the caffeine of coffee, so you get focus and energy without feeling jittery or dealing with that crash later. And what I like about the starter kit is it actually gives you everything you need to start the routine. You get a full size tin of your chosen blend, plus a rechargeable frother, free gifts, and free shipping. The OG blend is where a lot of people start because it has that chai and chocolate flavor. But they also have coffee, matcha, and turmeric blends if you want something different. For me, mub water is just a cleaner way to start the morning. It feels steady, it tastes good, and it fits right into the kind of routine I already want to be building. Ready to make the switch to cleaner energy? Go to mudwater.com/srs and grab the starter kit. Use code SRS and you'll get 43 percent off. The frother alone is worth it. That's right, up to 43 percent off with code SRS at mudwtr.com.

After your purchase, they'll ask how you found them. Please show your support and let them know we sent you. If you spend any time off road like I do, you already know how easy it is to end up second-guessing where you're at, whether you're still on a legal trail or if the route ahead is even worth taking. That's why I've been using OnX Off-Road. It's an off-road navigation app that shows trails, public and private land boundaries, places to camp and detailed trail info all in one place. What makes it really useful is the amount of actual trail data. You can check difficulty ratings, terrain details, trail photos, even recent reports from other riders before you head out there. The other big thing is you can download maps ahead of time, because once you lose service out there, your phone is pretty much useless. But with OnX Off-Road, everything still works offline.

If you're riding with a group, their location sharing feature lets everybody stay on the same map so nobody gets lost or separated. What I like most about it is it gives me a lot more confidence when I'm exploring somewhere new. I'm not wasting time backtracking, accidentally ending up on private land, or trying to figure things out once I'm already deep into the trail system. I can plan ahead, know what I'm getting into, and spend more time actually enjoying the ride instead of worrying about navigation the whole time. Search OnX Off-Road in the App Store or Google Play. Again, that's OnX Off-Road in the App Store or Google Play.
