There are some women whose voices never leave you. This one? She shaped mine. In today’s special episode, I introduce you to the woman who made me who I am — my mom, Debra Dillow. I'm sharing two of the most meaningful podcast episodes I’ve ever recorded… conversations between me and my mom during my strongman journey — back when the vision was still being built and the victories were still ahead of me. Her voice, her belief, her fire — it’s all here. 🖤 Listen to our original episodes together below: Momma Dillow – 04/19/2022 🔗 https://primitive-strength.simplecast.com/episodes/momma-dillow-7Z110IG1 Pre-Competition Talk with Momma Dillow – 08/18/2023 🔗 https://primitive-strength.simplecast.com/episodes/pre-competition-talk-with-momma-dillow-5k_XTqgT These are the last podcast recordings I ever made with her. But her legacy lives on in every word I speak… and every woman I coach.
This episode is sacred.
My mom wasn’t just the woman who raised me.
She was the one who lit the fire.
In 2022, I invited her onto my original podcast to talk about my journey into strongman — and what it meant for both of us.
In 2023, just before another major competition, we recorded again. She was always in my corner… and she always knew I was built for more.
Today, I’m bringing those moments back to life.
Because The Feminine Standard was born from that same fire.

This isn’t just a tribute.
It’s a reminder: when a woman believes in you that fiercely…
you don’t let that legacy go quiet.
🖤 You are the standard.
And she helped me become mine.
