Alberto Crane: Modern-Day Renaissance Man: Entrepreneur, Athlete, Coach & Father
Alberto Crane is a 5th-degree Jiujitsu Blackbelt, UFC Vet, and Owner of Legacy Academy in LA. Alberto became obsessed with Jiujitsu and moved from New Mexico to Brazil, to pursue mastery in jiujitsu after clarifying his goals when he read “Think and Grow Rich”, by Napoleon Hill. “Millions of men go through life in misery and poverty because they do not possess the right plan.” (Napoleon Hill) Alberto didn’t let his early competition success deter him, losing many of his early tournaments before eventually winning the Mundials (Brazilian World Championships) under the mentorship of Jiujitsu legend “Draculino”, before testing his jiujitsu in MMA and winning the King of the Cage title in his third fight.  His life changed when he was diagnosed with MS and was led to believe he was going to spend the rest of his life on pharmaceutical drugs with massive limitations in the future.  While still competing in Jiujitsu, and refusing to quit, Alberto discovered Tac-Fit and has found ways to naturally heal his body, ease his pain, and even bring more mental clarity.   Alberto now spends time spreading the practices and benefits of Tac-fit, hosting the Alberto Crane Show Podcast, and teaching Jiu-Jitsu at his schools in California.  0.00: Intro 5.45: Influence of Napoleon Hills “Think and Grow Rich” (The science of success) 10.35: Early Days training in Brazil 18.01: Started teaching in New Mexico 23.47: Persevering through early losses competing. 31.14: Fighting MMA 45.57: How jiujitsu calms the fight or flight response for life 50.56: Finding out he had MS 55.36: Tac-Fit and how it helped overcome MS  Show Sponsor is the amazing Non for Profit, The Overwatch Foundation.

Kelly Feldkamp: Mom, Athlete & Passionate Health Advocate
My long-time friend, Kelly Feldkamp, is one of the smartest people I know when it comes to everything related to health and fitness. Former athletic trainer and Boston marathon qualifier, Kelly is the mother of 3 young boys, and has taken a huge interest in their health, specifically questioning the standard “vaccine programs” and increasing evidence of links between vaccine batteries and increase autism. Kelly shares a very educated approach on how she handles vaccines for her children and highlights the need to truly question everything, take sovereignty of our own health and how we treat our bodies. If there is one thing the last few years has shown it is that all parents should stop the blind faith in institutions that put their profits above health. And please watch “Pain Killer” on Netflix to understand the people running big Pharma and their lack of regard for ruined lives in pursuit of profits.   Until next time, love and good vibes.  Check out the latest episode here: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enter-the-lionheart/id1554904704 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4tD7VvMUvnOgChoNYShbcI

Rocco Jarman: Philosophy of Self-Leadership
It's always a pleasure when I get to talk to my good friend and inspirational polymath, Rocco Jarman. Today we will be exploring the philosophy of self-leadership, as well as Rocco's thoughts on the power of Psychedelics.  You are either riding the waves, being tossed by the waves or you are perhaps making the waves. Either way, there will be waves. Be relentless in your choosing. Make for shore. If you must be undone, be undone at the infinite shoreline, that is where tomorrow begins, that is the event horizon beyond this recurring moment, beyond the threat of new ordeals, where it is right to finally be undone so that we can become something more - at the place where new trials await. It is worth defying even the endless heaving of the entire ocean for this. A thousand times the waves will come and a thousand times you must say: “Not today. I am destined for tomorrow.” Rocco is also the host of the Eyes Wide Open Life Podcast: https://eyeswideopenlife.org Rocco’s substack: eyeswideopenlife.substack.com Until next time, love and good vibes.  Check out the latest episode here: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/enter-the-lionheart/id1554904704 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4tD7VvMUvnOgChoNYShbcI
