Jeff Patterson has been practicing martial arts for 36 years. He has trained with masters from seven countries and has achieved a black belt equivalency in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Eskrima, Muay Thai, Kenpō, Tai Chi, and Qigong. Patterson believes in the power of meditative arts to enhance life experiences. Why Meditation for Educational Leaders? Educational leaders are in high-stress, high-visibility positions. Meditation can help reduce stress and prevent burnout, enabling leaders to have longevity in their careers. Meditation is practiced by high-performing athletes in other fields, such as boxing and basketball, to improve performance. Jeff Patterson's "Five Regulations" of Meditation: Regulating the body: Paying attention to skeletal alignment, muscle tension, and movement. This includes maintaining muscle structure and flexibility, consuming healthy nutrients, and getting adequate sleep. Regulating the breath: There are hundreds of breathing strategies, which can be categorized as yin (deeper, inward energy) or yang (aggressive, outward energy). Yin breathing involves longer inhales and shorter exhales. Yang breathing may involve tension in the breath and audible exhales. Regulating the mind: Meditation does not require a quiet mind, as distractions are normal. Meditation involves recognizing distractions and using posture, breath, and movement to regain focus. Regulating the energy: Once the body, breath, and mind are regulated, one can learn to direct energy inward, outward, or circulate it to achieve different outcomes in meditation. Regulating the spirit: This is a profound concept toward which meditation masters work their entire lives. Benefits of Meditation: Increased focus and productivity Enhanced emotional regulation Improved communication skills and the ability to "yield" Physical yielding: Getting out of the way of a force to respond with less effort. Requires being well rooted, having a strong and flexible lower body, a relaxed body, calm breath, and a present mind. Mental yielding: Recognizing imbalances in a conversation and adjusting the conversation to lead it to a harmonious place. Emotional yielding: Stepping back from interpersonal conflicts to make a more educated decision. Integrating Meditation into a Busy Schedule: Ritual Practice: A dedicated time, such as 20 minutes per day, to meditate without distractions. Active Practices: Integrating practices throughout the day, even for as little as 60 seconds. Philosophical Practices: Integrating the philosophy of meditation into active and ritual practices. Jeff Patterson's Three Considerations for Starting a Meditation Practice: Motivation: Identify your motivation for wanting to meditate. Consider how your life will change if you accomplish your meditation goals. Consistency: Practice consistently to reap the benefits of meditation. Consistency develops discipline, integrity, and patience. Guidance: Find a guide to save time and improve your practice. Resources: Website: theyieldingwarrior.com Free Book: theyieldingwarrior.com/book Social Media: Search "The Yielding Warrior" on social media channels Call to Action: Consider how meditation could benefit you and commit to practicing it regularly.
Well, hello, again. This week on the podcast, I sit down with grappler Phille Eriksson, whose journey on and off the mats is nothing short of inspiring. After facing severe health challenges that led to an ileostomy, Phille refused to let his circumstances define him—or stop him from returning to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. From his first day on the mats to the emotional rollercoaster of surgery and recovery, Phille shares how he is adapting to life with a stoma and how this will effect his game, modifying his gear, and finding strength in the support of his family and team. Together, we dive deep into the physical and mental toll of living and training with an ostomy, confronting misconceptions and redefining what resilience looks like in the grappling community. Phille opens up about the importance of representation, the role BJJ plays in healing, and how he is working his way back—not just as a grappler, but as a symbol of what's possible. Whether you're a fellow practitioner, someone facing health battles, or simply a fan of stories that challenge limits, this episode is a testament to the power of grit, adaptation, and community.

“Don't take the fight where you're best. Take it where the gap in skill is the greatest.”“There are laws of physics even BJJ cannot overcome.”“Fluid BJJ is a play on words.

Let Us Know What You Think of the Show!Date: June 35, 2025Name of podcast: Backstage Pass RadioS8: E10: Rikki Rockett (Poison) - Greatest Hits and Hardest BattlesSHOW SUMMARY:What happens when death stares you in the face, and you not only survive but thrive? Rikki Rockett, the original drummer of hair metal legends Poison, takes us on an extraordinary journey through his remarkable life both on and off the stage in this candid conversation. With disarming honesty, Rikki shares the terrifying moment when what seemed like a simple sore throat turned into a stage four cancer diagnosis with just a 10% chance of survival. His miraculous recovery through an innovative immunotherapy clinical trial not only saved his life but also transformed his perspective completely. "You can have 99 problems, but if you have a medical problem, you got one," he reflects, explaining how facing mortality taught him to value time above all else. Long before his health battle, Rikki's musical journey began in Pennsylvania with a $50 drum set and dreams of rock stardom. He takes us through Poison's early days hustling on the Sunset Strip, revealing the ingenious guerrilla marketing tactics they employed—from personally thanking fans at venue exits to strategically writing about themselves in club bathrooms. These authentic connections helped Poison stand apart in the overcrowded LA scene of the 1980s. Beyond his rock credentials, Rikki unveils his fascinating life as a fourth-degree Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt and paranormal investigator. His approach to urban legends and ghost hunting reflects his thoughtful nature, seeking the historical facts behind myths before exploring any supernatural elements. "I think 98% of it is BS, but that 2% is truly amazing," he explains, showing the same curiosity that's driven his diverse passions. Looking ahead to Poison's 40th anniversary in 2026, Rikki shares plans for a major tour with all original members intact—a remarkable achievement in the often-fractured world of rock bands. Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering his story for the first time, Rikki Rockett's tale of resilience, creativity, and constant reinvention will inspire you to approach life's challenges with both determination and wonder.Sponsor Link:WWW.ECOTRIC.COMWWW.SIGNAD.COMWWW.RUNWAYAUDIO.COMBackstage Pass Radio Social Media Handles:Facebook - @backstagepassradiopodcast @randyhulseymusicInstagram - @Backstagepassradio @randyhulseymusicTwitter - @backstagepassPC @rhulseymusicWebsite - backstagepassradio.com and randyhulsey.comArtist(s) Web PageInstagram - @rikkirockettFacebook - @thereallrikkirockettYoutube - @theposiondrummerCall to actionWe ask our listeners to like, share, and subscribe to the show and the artist's social media pages.

(My family binge-watched the series AND read Martin's book. The verdict? The book wins! But this episode is about more than a book. It's about: What it means to REINVENT yourself at any age Why you must keep saying “yes” to new challenges How to take bold creative risks—even if you fail The power of persistence, red pens, and the ONE connection that changes everything How to discover the “one-person” who could potentially open up doors to you fulfilling your dreams Lessons in leadership, family, and living a life of constant evolution Martin and I go back over 30 years, and in this conversation, we bring the fire, the stories, and the wisdom.

What's up, people? This week on the podcast, I sit down with the profoundly inspiring Adisa Banjoko—a true renaissance man whose life bridges martial arts, music, philosophy, and youth empowerment. As the founder of Hip Hop Chess Federation and 64 Blocks, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, philosopher, author, educator, and podcaster, Adisa brings a wealth of knowledge and perspective to the conversation. We explore his journey through martial arts and hip-hop, the creation of the HHCF and how it spawned 64 Blocks, and how chess, BJJ, and lyrical expression combine to elevate at-risk youth. Adisa shares powerful stories about mentorship, the mental game of jiu-jitsu, and the role Stoic philosophy plays in life both on and off the mats. We also dig into his community-focused initiative, 64 Blocks, and what it means to build programs that cultivate resilience, creativity, and responsibility. From chaining submissions to composing rhymes, Adisa draws surprising parallels between combat and art—and he even reveals what's more mentally taxing: rolling with a world champ or playing a deep chess match. This episode is packed with wisdom for coaches, grapplers, creatives, and anyone striving to live with greater purpose and presence.

#12WeeksToPeak #salestraining #SelfImprovement I'm going solo today to start year 13 of The Sales Podcast, episode 718.I updated an old blog post about "jabbing hard-charging" prospects to 'flip the script' in sales.Our job in sales is to disqualify prospects, engage them effectively, and ask the right questions. I share insights from my extensive experience in sales, highlighting the need for curiosity and understanding the prospect's needs.

Is group fitness helping or hurting your body composition goals? In this Fitness Friday episode on the Habits and Hustle podcast, Liron and I dive into the controversial world of group fitness classes like Orange Theory, Barry's Bootcamp, and F45. We discuss why these high-intensity classes can spike your appetite, burn out your adrenals, and leave you injured—plus what's actually working in the group fitness space. We also explore the rise of Hyrox as a better alternative to CrossFit, why Pilates shouldn't be your only workout, and the social benefits that keep people coming back despite the drawbacks. Liron Kayvan founded BFLA in 2019. He's a NASM Certified Group Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer, and Transformative Life Coach. Liron has competed in Amateur MMA, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Rugby and has been a Fitness Coach for over 10 years. What we discuss: The rise and reality of group fitness popularity Why Barry's Bootcamp can spike cortisol and appetite The "aimless running around" problem in most classes Hyrox vs. CrossFit: A safer group fitness alternative Why Pilates alone won't change your body composition The social benefits that make group fitness worthwhile When group fitness works vs. when it backfires The importance of having specific fitness goals Why "something is better than nothing" still applies How to choose group fitness that actually serves your goals Thank you to our sponsor: Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off TruNiagen: Head over to truniagen.com and use code HUSTLE20 to get $20 off any purchase over $100.
