In this episode, we talk about some of the training that Elijah did to prepare for the East Coast trials and he reveals that there are no secrets to success... It is all about surrounding yourself with the right mentors and putting in the work to make your goals a reality. Now a black belt in BJJ, Elijah shares about his journey of training with Lloyd Irvin at his academy since Elijah was a young kid. He talks about his greatest lessons learned from Lloyd and how this has impacted his life. In this episode, Elijah outlines how anyone can be successful in achieving their goals - whether it's winning the ADCC championships or starting a business. At the end of the day, it is all about the reps that you put in. This is an episode you do NOT want to miss.
