  • Stories That Sell Episode 28: Jarret Jones - Consistency and Longevity

    We all desire to achieve our goals. But what exactly does that imply, and how do we go about achieving it? There is no one-size-fits-all solution, but there are a few qualities that all successful people have in common: consistency and durability. 

    In this episode, Scott interviews Jarret Jones. Jarret has been in the fitness training and Martial Arts business for almost 20 years. Owner of Basin Crossfit, for 11 years now in Midland Tx. Jarret fought professional MMA for 7 years and is still active in BJJ competition regularly having earned a 1st degree Blackbelt. 

    Jarret has spent his whole life refining his teaching methods and workout routines. Football, baseball, cross-country, and track & field are among the sports in which he has competed throughout his life. After high school, he began training in martial arts and went on to have a seven-year professional MMA career. He is a self-motivated guy who is always looking for the next mental and physical challenge. As a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, he frequently competes at the highest level, runs ultra-marathons, and competes in local CrossFit events. His ambition to assist people through fitness, as well as his quest to learn more, fuels the good community and culture at Basin CrossFit.

    His struggle has always been in finding a way to blend his 2 favorite passions of martial arts and fitness. Which has led him to his current endeavor of fitness and nutrition online and virtual coaching program specifically for BJJ and martial arts athletes. 

    There's something to be said for maintaining a level of consistency. It might mean the difference between succeeding and failing. When it comes to your workout program, consistency is essential if you want to see results. But going to the gym every day isn't enough; you also need to make sure that your routine is sustainable so that you don't burn out. That's where longevity comes in: making sure your regimen can be followed for a long period without becoming too exhausting or stressful.


    So, if you want to do something amazing, start with this episode!

  • Stories That Sell Episode 24: Sarah Villalva - On the Other Side of Grief

    Sarah is a professional musician turned certified grief recovery specialist through The Grief Recovery Institute. After losing her father and stepfather to cancer, Sarah began a tumultuous grief journey. She fell into a deep depression, lost motivation to take care of her health, alienated herself from family and friends, and believed no one would ever understand the heaviness of her losses.


    She had not only lost two of the most influential people in her life but had also lost herself in the process. Her thoughts and beliefs had rolled into one single narrative: “I will never feel happiness again.” Desperate to find healing, she sought comfort in therapists and support groups all while continuing her research on why grief felt so incomprehensible. 


    It wasn’t until a dear friend had approached Sarah with an unorthodox grief recovery method, that that became the catalyst for her to start her journey to healing. It impacted her life in such a profound way that it birthed the desire to become trained and licensed as a grief recovery coach/specialist. Now, she helps people work through their personal struggles around grief while showing them how to speak more openly about their losses. 


    By teaching people how to embrace, confront and understand the challenging aspects within their grief journeys, allows them to find healing, peace, purpose, and happiness again.
