Today I have the honour of talking with three time Canadian kickboxing champion Rick Joslin, who among other honours bestowed upon him, was awarded his 8th degree black belt in 1998. Rick and his son Jeff Joslin, are both champions and distinguished members of the Canadian Black Belt Hall of Fame.
We’re going to talk about a lot of things during our time together. We might even talk about martial arts a time or two.
But what we’re going to talk about mostly is the journey that Rick finds himself on now, which is the journey that all of us will take one day. That journey is towards the end of his life and the start of the next phase of his soul’s existence.
Cheryl Ilov is an author, dancer, martial artist, and physical therapist. She's also a former chronic pain patient who began a journey of self-healing after she was told by medical professionals that she would never recover.
Well recover she did. And more! Cheryl began training in the ancient martial art of the Ninja after she was sexually assaulted by her doctor. Cheryl was 47 at the time and became her sensei's only female black belt at the age of 57 when she attained her second degree black belt.
This is an amazing conversation with a fascinating person who does not quit!

What could possibly go wrong?
On Friday the 13th of July 2018 the unthinkable happened. Paul went missing while on a hike in Joshua Tree National Park in California.

The 100th episode of The Courage Wolf podcast is dedicated to a fallen hero: Police Service Dog Troy!
Join us for this replay of our 100th episode where we spoke with Paul Johnston and honoured the memory of his fallen police K9 Troy!
On the 25th of February 1992 Constable Paul Johnston was dispatched to a domestic violence call involving a firearm.
Another officer was in an adjoining yard with no cover. Troy saved the officer by engaging the gunman, but Troy paid the ultimate sacrifice that night.
Paul Johnston has worn Troy's police service badge around his neck ever since.
Join us on this podcast to pay tribute to Troy.
