On this episode of the podcast, Chewy discusses why he doesn't set expectations for outcomes and how he learned this lesson through competing and rolling.

Chewy discusses how he was able to become distant from expectation and was able to put this idea into practice, using meditation to promote a mindset of no expectations while recognizing negative emotions, the importance of exposure, and focusing on what you can control.

Chewy and Eugene also break down the first Chewjitsu Open and the key takeaways and challenges. We also discuss what creates a good tournament environment, what Chewy would change about the tournament, one of the most important skills to develop as a competitor, and the value of working with a nutrition coach.
