DJ Paden: Crashing Into Sobriety | The Hopeaholics PodcastJoin The Hopeaholics Podcast for an unforgettable episode featuring DJ Paden, a former 24 Hour Fitness general manager whose life was reshaped by addiction and redemption. Growing up in Huntington Beach amidst his father's alcoholism, DJ began drinking at 12, later battling opiate addiction after a workout injury. His struggles peaked with four DUIs, culminating in a harrowing 105-mph crash in 2015 that totaled his truck and led to eight months in county jail. There, DJ began his transformation, losing 40 pounds and finding glimmers of hope. After a brief relapse, a spiritual surrender in April 2016 marked his nine-year sobriety journey. Rising from rock bottom, he rebuilt his career, advancing from a UFC Gym sales rep to regional manager, now leading the Huntington Beach location. As a men's ministry director, DJ channels his faith to guide others, despite enduring the tragic loss of his father and two brothers to addiction in 2022-2023. His raw, vulnerable story of resilience, forgiveness, and purpose shines in this emotional episode, offering a beacon of hope for those battling mental health and addiction.

This week's guest spent years putting off her coaching business even though she was already giving away her coaching services for free. She pushed the business part of coaching to the back of her mind even though she had a line of potential customers asking her for her help. Patrons from her gym asked her for her advice because they knew they could trust her. Khay knew she needed to make a change, but she needed help taking courageous action. To start her personal growth journey, Khay needed to start trusting herself.    Coach Khay is a mom of 2, a wife, and an experienced group fitness instructor. Coach Khay has been training and teaching kickboxing since 2001. She specializes in both small and large group sessions, as well as personal training. Her extensive experience includes instructing students of all ages, from young children to seniors. In addition to her kickboxing expertise, Coach Khay became a certified group instructor for TurboKick, a Beachbody program, in 2009. After a brief hiatus, she returned to teaching kickboxing and boxing conditioning classes at UFC Gym in San Bruno during the 2021 pandemic. For the past two and a half years, she has been a dedicated instructor at iLoveKickboxing in Brentwood, where she continues to share her passion for martial arts and fitness.   In this week's episode, Khay shares how she kicked through her mindset barriers by completing her courage project. Before she joined Courage Driven Latina, she was working through a ton of limiting beliefs all on her own. She thought she needed more certifications and qualifications before she started her own coaching business. Meanwhile, she was already coaching her patrons as a kickboxing instructor. She didn't need any more certifications, she just needed to have courage. Listen to Khay's episode to hear all about her personal growth journey and what's next for her coaching business.  Connect with Khay Mandap:  Instagram: @ladykhay415fitness Follow Erika on: Instagram @‌theerikacruzTikTok @‌theerikacruzLinkedIn Website: http://www.theerikacruz.com How to work with Erika: Sign up for the How To Make 2025 Your Courage Year webinar Join the waitlist for Courage Driven Latina here!

Hey everybody! Episode 61 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with my friend Alex Ecklin. Alex and I met about a decade ago when we were both students of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under the great Vitor “Shaolin” Ribeiro in New York City. Alex went on to compete, medaling in world championships, teaching under Shaolin, and eventually opening his own school in Brooklyn, and now Manhattan, Masterskya. I have a lot of respect for Alex in how he carries himself, as a jiujitsu practitioner, as a teacher, and as a man. In this conversation, we talked about martial arts, jiujitsu, muay Thai, MMA, plant medicines, life, and the tao. I really enjoyed talking to Alex and I think and trust you all will also.

Together, they assembled a team of like-minded, passionate instructors to work alongside them to achieve their vision and dream of providing honest, highest level training possible that is accessible to anyone. They believe that the martial arts should be available for anyone, and the focus should be to help people achieve whatever goals they have through training.Alex and Van attained their Black Belts under BJJ + MMA legend Vitor “Shaolin” Ribeiro, and have been training together for over a decade. They taught at the Manhattan academy together for many years, and later individually when Alex taught in Coban's Muay Thai Camp and Van at UFC Gym in Soho.Alex medaled in the IBJJF World Championships, European Championships, No-Gi Pan American Championships and won the American Nationals, Chicago Open, several New York and Boston Opens as a Brown Belt.

Watch the full episode on YouTube – https://youtu.be/UmMS7--wxws Adam started out in a summer job straight out of college with Family Fitness that was later acquired by 24 Hour Fitness.

Through this loyalty and dedication, Adam benefitted from mentorship opportunities under the likes of Mark Mastrov and Jim Rowley to become a better version of himself within the industry.

Between those walls and in the Octagon, it's all about integrity, character, discipline and dedication. UFC GYM's signature model has a core of classes that make each location offering great, including boxing, Brazilian jiu jitsu, conditioning, and daily ultimate training (DUT) to teach a safe way for members to become functionally fit. This approach with the right content and UFC DNA enables franchisees to better execute what UFC GYM is all about. On top of this, a boutique model within the gyms allow consistency in brand communication across the business, whether for employees or franchisees.    Episode Highlights -  How to stay humble with great success and continual achievement. Circle of association – how to use influence and mentorship to better yourself and your business. How to look at your industry in different ways by working with different people, and making the most of relocation to boost your career. In Adam's case, he's moved 20 times with 24 Hour Fitness. That's loyalty and dedication. Discover the differences between corporate business compared with a franchise opportunity. What are the challenges and how can you overcome them?

With a pro fight career of 19 wins including 11 KO/TKO victories, Rob McCullough, senior MMA director at UFC GYM, is no stranger to overcoming a challenge. Hear how he made a career of punching people in the face to win a championship before going for gold in business, too. Watch the full episode on YouTube – https://youtu.be/2RkwvZdGeAM The dedication of making weight and facing a different competitive challenge with every fight is something Rob was born for. Youngest of seven children, with his dad in the military, Rob was destined to a life in service to follow in his father's footsteps. However, his parents' divorce and a move to Alaska changed his outcome, resulting in Rob struggling to keep up with classes and not graduating high school. In his early teens, Rob travelled back to Huntingdon Beach and met UFC Hall of Famer Tito Ortiz – a relationship that would eventually lead to a further UFC link through President Dana White. It didn't take long for Rob to discover gym life and try kickboxing at LA Boxing, before progressing to Brazilian jiu jitsu. The passion for the fight game had been born and only bigger things were to come. Working with his BJJ instructor, Rob progressed a career teaching combat classes from basic burpees, jumping jacks and bag work to the robust programming hub he implements in UFC GYMs today. From sparring unknowingly with a kickboxing champion, Rob's second ever pro am fight was at the Four Queens on Freemont Street in Las Vegas. His first found stoppage of his opponent preceded a night of celebration and a desire to fight as a career. Early on, Rob received advice from Bill Goldberg of WWE and WCW wrestling fame. He said: “Just remember… Potential. It means you haven't done shit yet.” What followed was Rob's championship win in World Extreme Cagefighting, before returning to his roots. After getting a job at LA Boxing – Rob's first fight gym – as director of instructor training, the chain was acquired by Mark Mastrov and UFC GYMs. Today, UFC GYM is the result of a partnership between the Ultimate Fighting Championship and New Evolution Ventures, in an expanding initiative urging people to TRAIN DIFFERENT. Episode Highlights:  Positive thoughts and clear mind through perfect preparation. Laughed at early in his career when he filled out his boxing license, hear how Rob silences the doubters through dedication and hard work. How mindset affects people in business, whether commercial or the fight game. How does family affect your killer-instinct and how you can use personal developments to evolve your motivation and inspiration. Hear why it's important to get a different perspective through research and collaboration with peers, even if you're not a studious person at heart.   Join Matthew Januszek in conversation with Rob McCullough of UFC GYM…   Please like and subscribe.
