It's not just about sport. For me, it's about legacy. How does Gracie Jiu-Jitsu keep growing, and how does the mission spread? Like everything I've done, it’s about sharing this art.

The comic book needs finishing. The mixtape needs completing. There's always some kind of work to do. To-do lists keep me going, with boxes to be filled every day.

Learning to fight shouldn't mean suffering. One man's journey from brutal training to a better way. He breaks down how to evade, stay comfortable in terrible situations, and use it to your advantage. It's all about learning the levels.

Being alone is okay because I've been alone for so long. Then I was in a relationship where I had to take care of someone who was never there. Now, I'm privileged to have people who care. It formed a softer version of me.

Getting closer to the Gracie Well revealed some uncomfortable truths. Why are some secrets only taught to a select few? Is just being a 'badass' enough? Some claim Jiu-Jitsu has evolved, but is it really that simple?

Trying to serve my community, which is different from the world at large. I feed the hungry, not the bloated. As Chris Howder said, it's about teaching those who want to learn, even when it's challenging.

Forget fancy moves. This is about real-world defense: escaping headlocks, guillotines, and haymakers. Practical, common-sense answers to survive a real fight. Learn how to protect yourself now.

Navigating social media feels like a necessary evil. Endless content, posts about posts... But connecting with interesting people and having real conversations? That's the part worth fighting for. It's all about finding the balance.

I have to genuinely believe in something before I endorse it. If I recommend an album, you know it's good. I'm not going to put my name on just anything. I'm not a billboard.

The Crow's music didn't quite hit the mark for him, but Repo Man? He thinks they absolutely nailed the soundtrack. A difference of opinion on what makes a truly great movie soundtrack.

Your legs are way stronger than your arms. Even if someone picks you up, locking their leg with yours gives you control. You can stop slams and tighten chokes. It's a game-changer in jiu-jitsu.

I'm speaking my mind, and I don't care if you like it. Scroll past me if you disagree. There's no version of me that needs your approval.
