And I was training at a really high level. And I was thinking about this, like I was getting ready to begin my surge toward black belt world championships in jiu-jitsu. And I ruptured my old 405 disc. And it was the first time I'd been moved away from an art Not on my own terms.

And it was a brutal injury that I ended up, as we do and we're madmen, coming back and training for a year and a half with the broken, busted up back. And then the doctors told me I had to let this one go or I'd be crippled for life. And around that period is where I started to go all in on the art of training others.

And I said, okay, if I can't be all in training as a competitor, as an athlete myself, I'd been training elite competitors in mental and physical performance for some time then. But I wanted to take on the challenge of loving training others with the same intensity that I love training myself. And I went all in on that art. And I'm still all in on that art.

But I never actually got to the place where I love not being in the arena myself as much as being in the arena myself. And then in this chapter of my life now, I fall in love with the ocean arts, initially surfing and now foiling. And for the last eight years, I've been living in the jungles of Costa Rica with my family. And I train three to five hours a day in foiling.

And so I'm in my really intense training lifestyle myself. And I train elite mental and physical competitors around the world in finance, in science, technology, and in sports. I've been doing some amazing work with the Boston Celtics for the last few years. So that's the journey in a nutshell. Happy to dig into any of it.
