In this compelling episode of *Rumbling Facts*, I sit down with Ron Holloway, former DSS Special Agent, author of *Antifragility: 10 Principles to Live by to Turn Crisis into Opportunity*, and CEO of Arrow Coaching LLC. Ron shares his incredible journey, starting from his upbringing and the challenges he faced in federal law enforcement to the life-altering incident that left him cognitively and physically impaired.

We dive deep into his remarkable recovery, where he rebuilt himself using antifragility principles and became the first social media influencer within the federal government. Ron explains how he turned personal and professional adversity into opportunities, offering listeners actionable insights on how to thrive in crisis situations.

From the mental resilience strategies he developed for 2,000 special agents and 50,000 personnel at the U.S. Department of State, to his experiences in coaching, Ron unpacks the key principles of antifragility and how they can be applied in everyday life.
