In this episode I share a conversation I had for my previous podcast, about a year and a half ago. I spoke with Jamie Keeling, an exceptional individual and friend, on a variety of topics: from Stoic philosophy, to becoming a Tae Kwon Do world champion, to the entrepreneurial revolution.

Jamie is a successful entrepreneur, a former Tae Kwon Do world champion, and the founder of "Bulletproof" app. He is business coaching consultant, the host of "Optimise me now" podcast, he has 7 children, and he likes kicking people in the face!

This conversation is epic, and even more so because it's over 2 hours! This is the first part - the second half is on next episode #117.

 

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀:

* His gold medal in the Tae Kwon Do world championships - why he says it means nothing

* Why we can never "reach" success

* Stoic philosophy, "memento mori", and our own mortality

* People choose to be offended by swear words
