(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.

Owning and operating a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school is both a labour of love and a huge responsibility. Speaking from 10 years of experience running my own academy, I talk about the biggest myths that I heard surrounding gym ownership. Some topics of discussion are kids programs, building customer loyalty (the right way), ordering gear overseas, building profit, and big name affiliations. Maybe this episode turned into a bit of a venting session, but I think you will find it interesting nonetheless. Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.

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.

It started as an April Fool's joke and then morphed into a BEAST of a book complete with 967 illustrations called "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the Ultimate Illustrated Guidebook".  In episode 424 I chat with renowned BJJ black belt, illustrator and designer Seymour Yang (better known as Meerkatsu) and his partner in crime Graham Barlow (the creator of the Tai Chi Notebook) about the core techniques of BJJ, modern vs traditional jiu-jitsu, and the process of bringing a new book into the world. Check out the book here: https://www.meerkatsu.com/product/brazilian-jiu-jitsu-the-ultimate-illustrated-guidebook/ Cheers, Stephan P.S. And while we're on the topic of books check out Perseverance, Life and Death in the Subarctic.  While this isn't a BJJ book specifically, it does contain many of the lessons I learned about endurance, perseverance, and grit on the toughest expedition of my life.   Available on Amazon or wherever books are sold: https://www.amazon.com/Perseverance-Death-Subarctic-Stephan-Kesting/dp/1639368612/

Pastor Mark emphasizes the need to confront and "kill" the sin in our lives by examining, deciding, implementing, and tracking our spiritual journey, using Zacchaeus's story as a model for transformation. The key takeaway is the importance of commitment and continuous effort in countering sinful tendencies, likening this process to advancing through levels in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Pastor Mark encourages everyone to recognize their pivotal moments of decision and embrace a relationship with Jesus, who seeks and saves the lost.

#12WeeksToPeak #negotiation #SelfImprovement #LifeLessons In this conversation, I sit down with Andres Lares, a negotiation expert, to discuss the intricacies of negotiation, leadership, and sales training. Believe it or not, we get into the importance of goodwill in business relationships. (I always leave a little meat on the bone so my prospects and business partners want to come back to work with me.)As The Sales Whisperer®, of course, we discuss the value of training.As a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, I discuss being adaptable as a key component of a negotiation training program.As an Air Force veteran, we get into the role of leadership in employee retention. (Unfortunately, leadership is sparse in the military, the private sector, schools, churches, HOAs, PTAs, Little League, and everywhere in between...But I digress.)As usual, balance is key in business and in life, so we look at the need for creating a balance between structure and flexibility in sales processes, as well as the significance of self-reflection and feedback for personal growth."The worst-case scenario is not a no."We agree on the philosophy of incremental improvement and the necessity of practice and preparation in negotiation and in life.We also agree on the intricacies of negotiation and the importance of tailored training for effective communication. You must understand the buyer's perspective and maintain integrity in your business: prospecting, selling, and fulfillment roles.As we say in the military, the more you bleed in training, the less you bleed in battle, so we dive into the significance of preparation, emotional intelligence, and the role of negotiation training in building confidence and credibility.Finally, Lares shares insights on the challenges of hiring skilled facilitators and the value of asking the right questions to uncover the truth in negotiations."Nothing convinces like conviction."GUEST INFO:Guest Site: https://www.shapironegotiations.com/resources/books/Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreslares/Guest X: https://x.com/sninegotiationsGuest Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shapiro_negotiations_institute/00:00 Introduction to Negotiation and Leadership02:49 The Power of Nice in Negotiation06:08 Value-Based Negotiation Strategies09:05 The Importance of Training and Adaptability11:59 Balancing Structure and Flexibility in Sales14:55 The Role of Leadership in Employee Retention18:10 Investing in People for Long-Term Success20:56 The Incremental Improvement Philosophy24:04 The Role of Feedback and Self-Reflection27:11 The Importance of Practice and Preparation30:48 The Art of Negotiation and Training39:41 Understanding the Buyer's Perspective42:15 The Importance of Integrity in Sales46:43 Tailored Training for Effective Negotiation53:19 Books and Resources for Negotiation SkillsNot for the mediocre majority: Learn how I get more done in a quarter than most achieve in a decade in 12 Weeks To Peak™ https://wesschaeffer.com/12wConnect with me:X -- https://X.com/saleswhispererInstagram -- https://instagram.com/saleswhispererLinkedIn -- http://www.linkedin.com/in/thesaleswhisperer/#12WeeksToPeak #SalesTraining #GoalSetting #PersonalDevelopment

In this week's mini-episode we discuss controlling the distance, a key lesson in most martial arts, including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. As general advice, many instructors  will coach you to close the distance when attacking and make space when defending. While this is often true, in this mini-episode we'll explore the exceptions to that rule and settle on a more general guideline for controlling the distance: find the distance where you can control them but they can't control you.Get our Intro to Mechanics audio course, normally $79, FREE:https://bjjmentalmodels.com/freeintroDon't forget to check out BJJ Mental Models Premium!If you love the podcast, you'll definitely love our premium membership offerings.

This week's guests on the special edition Bruce Lee Foundation takeover of the Bruce Lee Podcast for the month of May are The Twinjas—Ollie and Jonny Ho—and professional MMA fighter, stunt performer, and coach Austin Liu. Shannon has known Ollie and Jonny Ho, known as The Twinjas, their whole lives. Their father, Steven Ho (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Conan O'Brien), has been a previous guest on the podcast and is a longtime friend. Identical twins and martial arts prodigies, the boys are making waves across entertainment, athletics, and fashion.  They've trained since the age of four and have competed across multiple martial disciplines including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, boxing, Muay Thai, and more. Their infectious energy and talent have earned them roles on a number of series, and they are regular contributors to the official Bruce Lee social media accounts. Joining them is professional fighter, stunt performer and coach, Austin Liu. Austin is also one of the martial arts instructors for both the Camp Bruce Lee and Warrior Academy programs at the BLF,  where he shares his passion for working with youth by bringing Bruce's philosophies of personal growth and confidence to the next generation. Join Shannon as they discuss how all three guests first found martial arts, how Bruce Lee's legacy has influenced their journeys, and what it means to grow into your power—both physically and mentally. Hear directly from two youths as they drop some real gems about how their lives have been positively affected and enriched by training in martial arts. Scroll down for more information about all our guests and listen to today's episode as all of them express how they embody Bruce Lee's spirit of self-actualization, adaptability, and service!  Show notes and more episodes at Brucelee.com/Podcast  Connect with Ollie and Jonny Ho aka The Twinjas...
