Want Eric on your show?

Eric is an open, candid podcast guest — comfortable going deep on Parkinson's, athletic identity, entrepreneurship, and what it actually means to keep training when everything says stop.

He Talks well about

  • Living and competing with Parkinson's — the real day-to-day, not the highlight reel

  • Building EVF Performance and Row House — from first client to national franchise

  • Movement as medicine — why exercise is the most powerful tool in the Parkinson's toolkit

  • The athlete mindset — identity, adversity, and what "still training" looks like in practice

  • Faith, family, and purpose — what keeps him going on the hard days
