What's up guys, last week got away from me with work, family life, and jiu jitsu, so I forgot to post my episode with my homie Jake!  So you get to enjoy it this week instead.  Jake is one of our big (mean) blue belts. He has a very trappy game, punishes your mistakes, and always teaches you something about yourself.  We cover a number of topics, from using Jiu Jitsu to rekindle the beginner's mindset and ability to have fun in life, to ideas for new white belts to think about their game (in order to progress a little more efficiently). He doesn't sugar coat anything and is obsessed with the game, which makes him a very valuable teammate. 

Enjoy the episode - and do your homie a favor and subscribe or auto-download the pod episodes if you enjoy it! If all 3 of my listeners do this we might reach more earholes! ;-)  Also I've had a few people hit me up on instagram (@downstairsdanny) to offer recommendations for episode topics they want to hear more about – please don't hesitate to reach out! I love having more ideas to work with.
