From Pro Fighter to Serial Entrepreneur | An Interview with Ed Clay
It’s not every day that I use “serial entrepreneur” and “MMA
fighter” in the same sentence. But it’s necessary to do that
because my guest today is Ed Clay. Way back when, Ed had a stint as
pro MMA fighter and went on to become a well-respected MMA
instructor. Along the way he founded the largest MMA training
school in the country.
But Ed has interests well beyond MMA. He’s an intense student of
alternative medicine and helped to reopen the original Gerson
Therapy hospital in Tijuana, Mexico, now called CHIPSA.
His other adventures include going on the road as a personal
trainer for professional musicians. He also established the East
Ivy Mansion in Nashville, a popular historic event venue.
Ed Clay is a true Renaissance man! More than that, this is a guy
who makes his dreams happen! Come along on a great conversation
with an extraordinary person!
In this episode you will . . .
• Go on a wild ride through the many stages of Ed Clay’s
professional life
• Hear about Ed’s experience with pain med addiction and the
success he had with ibogaine, a drug not yet legal in the
U.S.
• Discover an insider’s perspective on the world of alternative
medicine
• Learn about the challenges Big Pharma and the FDA present to
alternative medicine treatments in the U.S.
• Get a bonus self-defense tip from a former MMA fighter and
instructor
“My biggest goal in life is to help people.” – Ed
Clay
