Welcome back to Dial Emma! Each week, I'll be answering your dilemmas with honesty, empathy, and a few therapeutic truth bombs to help you make sense of life's stickiest moments. If you've ever wished you had a therapist in your back pocket, Dial Emma is here to help.It's World Mental Health Day this Friday 10th October, so I'm delighted to be joined by a special guest who knows the power of martial arts for mental health better than most: four-time black belt, double gold medal champion and founder of Graham's Academy of Martial Arts, Steve Graham.Our dilemma this week comes from a concerned mother, whose teenage son is struggling with anxiety, depression and a loss of confidence and spends much of his time in his room. She asks: how can I support my son and encourage him to try something new, without making him feel pressured?To help this lovely listener, Steve and I go back to grassroots mental health as it has shown up in our own lives. We discuss the challenges teenagers are facing, especially on social media, the importance of role models to help them navigate those challenges, and how martial arts can serve as a powerful tool for building confidence and providing support.Steve also tells us the benefits of martial arts for our mental wellbeing and the practical steps we can take to get involved in physical activities, encouraging both parents and teens to take action for better mental health.---Useful links:Dopamine Nation by Anna LembkeChimp Paradox by Steve Peters---If you have a dilemma for Emma, please fill out this form. ---Dial Emma is hosted by Emma Reed Turrell, produced by Lauren Brook.---Social media:Emma Reed Turrell @emmareedturrellDial Emma @dialemmapodcastEmail: contact@dial-emma.uk

In this power-packed episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Bogdan Rosu—martial artist, leadership coach, and host of the Stories from Your Future Self podcast. Bogdan shares how ancient martial arts principles fuel modern leadership breakthroughs without compromising freedom or well-being. From redefining resilience through Bruce Lee's philosophy of “being like water” to breaking down burnout myths, this conversation explores the mindset shifts needed for self-leadership, adaptability, and identity evolution. If you're a leader or entrepreneur seeking clarity, power, and sustainability in your growth—this is a must-listen. About the Guest:Bogdan Rosu is a leadership coach and martial arts expert based in Romania. He is the creator of the world's first personal development through martial arts program and the upcoming book Greatness and Mastery. Through live coaching on his podcast and powerful storytelling, Bogdan empowers leaders to break through internal limitations, avoid burnout, and redefine success on their terms. Key Takeaways: True resilience is adaptability, not overexertion—“Be like water” isn't just metaphorical, it's strategic. Your biggest weakness may become your greatest strength in the right environment. Burnout often comes from playing roles that no longer serve your evolution—identity shifts are part of growth. Leadership means empowering others, not over-parenting your team or business. You're never too old—or too successful—to keep learning and transforming.

In this raw and relatable episode of The Collective Perspective, Jeff and Travis get real about something most of us don't want to admit: we've got a self-control problem — and it's showing up everywhere.Whether it's flipping out in traffic, clapping back online, losing it with your kids, or snapping during a live gig when your gear starts acting up (yes, even the light in this episode gave us attitude), self-control is that hidden skill we know we should have… but rarely do.This isn't a TED Talk on mastering emotions — it's a grounded conversation about recognizing your breaking point, owning your triggers, and laughing at yourself along the way. From production malfunctions and tech stress to everyday moments where we let impulse win, this episode unpacks how faith, emotional awareness, and humility play into keeping your cool in a world that thrives on outrage.We're not offering a 10-step fix. We're handing you a mirror and saying, “Same, bro.”If you've ever yelled at a paper towel dispenser, snapped during soundcheck, or sent a text you immediately regretted, you're not alone — and this one's for you.#TheCollectivePerspective #SelfControl #MentalStrength #EmotionalDiscipline #TriggeredCulture #PauseBeforeYouReact #QuietStrength #FaithAndFocus #RespondDontReact #PeaceOverChaos Chapters (00:00:00) - Introduction to the Collective Perspective Podcast(00:00:35) - Diving into Self-Control(00:01:35) - Practical Examples of Self-Control(00:02:52) - Self-Control in Daily Life(00:09:30) - Self-Control in Relationships and Parenting(00:15:23) - Martial Arts and Self-Control(00:17:50) - Philosophical Insights on Self-Control(00:19:15) - Conclusion and Viewer Engagement

425 | Breaking Third Wall: How to Get Martial Arts Families Fully Committed Podcast Description In Episode 425 of School Owner Talk, Duane Brumitt and Allie Alberigo tackle one of the toughest challenges in the martial arts business: getting clients and families fully committed and dedicated to your program. They explore the concept of "breaking the third wall" - stepping beyond just teaching students to actively engaging parents and building a true martial arts community. From families who treat your school like a gym membership to parents who become spectators instead of participants, this episode reveals how to turn quick signups into lifelong raving fans. Learn why commitment has become rare in today's world and discover actionable strategies to build deeper connections that transform your martial arts school culture. Whether you're struggling with retention, dealing with uncommitted families, or looking to build a stronger community, this conversation provides real-world solutions for creating the kind of engagement that leads to long-term success. Key Takeaways Understanding the Third Wall Concept Breaking the Third Wall Definition: Just like Deadpool talking to the movie audience, breaking the third wall in martial arts means stepping beyond just teaching students to actively engaging parents and connecting lessons to real life. The Theater Analogy: Your martial arts students are the actors, you're orchestrating the performance, but parents are the paying audience who need to be entertained and engaged, not just watching from the sidelines. Beyond Technique Teaching: The difference between teaching a sidekick and teaching confidence is making the connection clear to parents so they understand it's not just physical technique. The Commitment Curve Challenge Modern Commitment Crisis: People will binge-watch eight seasons in a week but can't commit to showing up for a 45-minute class twice weekly. Commitment has become increasingly rare. The Honeymoon Phase Problem: Signing up is easy at the height of motivation, but getting past the quick honeymoon phase is where real work begins in building lasting commitment. Village Mentality: Success requires parents understanding they're part of the team and solution, not just paying the bill. If they want amazing results, they must put in effort too. Real-World Engagement Strategies Parent Code Implementation: Establish clear expectations through formal parent codes read at every belt ceremony, reinforcing that parents come alongside their children rather than just dropping them off. Periodic Check-ins: Schedule regular meetings (every 3-6 months) with students and parents to discuss progress, set goals, and maintain future-casting vision for continued growth. Video Communication: Replace traditional cards with personalized videos sent through text or email, creating deeper connections and showing parents specific moments of their child's progress. Action Steps for School Owners [H3] Start from Day One Trial Class Engagement: From the very first trial, communicate that success requires village mentality. Invite parents to be part of the solution, not just observers. Future Casting: Help parents see what their child can achieve in 6-12 months based on what they said they want. Make it tangible and visible, not philosophical. Build Systematic Engagement Create Parent Codes: Develop written expectations that parents commit to, emphasizing their role in their child's martial arts journey. Read these at every belt ceremony. Implement Check-in Systems: Schedule regular progress meetings (via Zoom or in-person) to discuss goals, celebrate achievements, and recommit to the next level. Use Technology for Connection Video Communication: Film 30-second personalized videos for new students, progress updates, or encouragement. Upload to YouTube (unlisted) and text the link through your management system. ...

Almost all martial arts school owners are disappointed with their agencies or have a horror story to share. Here's how I see both sides of the storyIN THIS EPISODE:The flawed martial arts agency model of overpromising.The unrealistic "microwave expectations" about martial arts marketing.The power of the marketing-to-mats feedback loop.The strategic mindset shift from focusing on cost to focusing on return.The advantage of an "open book" martial arts marketing approach.And more.TRANSCRIPTIONI want to talk about everything that, in my opinion, is wrong with martial arts marketing.This is coming from two sides, from both sides: the agency model, the delivery, the expectations that get promised in the market space, and then on the flip side, how it's perceived and the expectations from martial arts school owners of what it is and what it's not.And then there's the inevitable hamster wheel of disappointment that it just never seems to escape.So, who has not had a bad experience with an agency?Everybody talks about how their agency sucks and they're terrible.Is this true?Yes and no.I feel it's on both sides.Now, in my last videos and a few things that I've distributed, I've mentioned my dislike for the traditional agency model.And I'll tell you a little story.Here's where this started.This is now going back. Oh, it's got to be at least five or six years ago.I always feel like I get timelines wrong.

If you are a high achiever and driven by the benefits of team dynamics, join the Balanced Warriors as they provide you with must-haves for building and growing a goal-driven team. Michael Mertens and Chris Berlow share their unique perspective on building a successful business team. Drawing on their decades of experience as martial arts experts and multi-location business owners, they discuss how to cultivate leadership and teamwork. The principles they share extend beyond the martial arts world and apply to any business owner seeking to cultivate a thriving, mission-driven team. Do you want your team to be better every day? Join us now! Key Takeaways & Actionable Advice Look Inward for Talent: Don't just hire externally. The best team members can often be developed from within your existing student or client base. Cultivate relationships with people who already believe in your mission. Establish a Progressive Training System: Create a clear path for growth. Just like a "farm team" in baseball, your business should have different levels of responsibility and training to progressively develop future leaders. Be a Mentor, Not a Boss: Maintain a relationship with your team that goes beyond a simple employee/employer dynamic. Continue to be their teacher and mentor, providing ongoing training and guidance. This fosters loyalty and mutual respect. Prioritize Mission over Money: Ensure your team is driven by a shared mission and a love for what they do. While fair compensation is essential, a deeper sense of purpose will inspire them to take ownership and go the extra mile. Lead by Example: Your actions speak volumes. Your team will reflect your passion, work ethic, and commitment to the company's mission. Be the "chief culture officer" and a role model for the behavior you want to see. Cultivate Team Cohesion: Create opportunities for your staff to bond outside of their daily tasks, like shared training sessions or team outings. This builds camaraderie and mutual respect, which is crucial for a strong team. Be Better Every Day!

Water Mirror Echo is Dr. Jeff Chang's ambitous and deeply empathetic cultural biography of Bruce Lee that goes beyond myth, revealing the man behind the legend while tracing how Lee's life helped shape the emergence of Asian America. Chang's storytelling deftly intertwines Lee's personal narrative with broader social currents--highlighting Asian American student activism, racial solidarity, and cultural resistance. By drawing from in-depth interviews, newly released personal papaers, and rare family photographs, Chang is able to pierce the iconography and reveal Lee's complexity--his vulnerabilities, perseverance, and influence. And by humanizing Lee, Chang reframes him as a creator of cultural identity, not just an action hero. Chang delivers more than a portrait of Bruce Lee--he offers a meditation on identity, visibility, and the shaping of Asian American culture. Lee's life becomes a lens to explore how individuals and symbols can birth movements, challenge stereotypes, and redefine belonging. His book will be available for purchase on September 23, 2025.

SUMMARY In this episode of Whistlekick Martial Arts Radio, hosts Jeremy Lesniak and Andrew Adams discuss the pros and cons of various types of martial arts training equipment, including kicking shields, focus mitts, paddles, and more.   The conversation also touches on the significance of safety, technique, and the psychological aspects of training with different equipment. The hosts conclude by suggesting future discussions on innovative training tools and techniques. TAKEAWAYS Training tools are common for martial arts practice. Using a variety of equipment can benefit students' training. Kicking shields allow for powerful strikes but can be cumbersome. Board breaking can boost confidence but carries injury risks. Focus mitts enhance accuracy and technique during drills. Heavy bags provide a realistic striking experience. Upright bags offer maneuverability for dynamic training.
