From Nigeria to America, Ugo has achieved many accomplishments to include: a Bachelor's Degree, a Master's Degree, service in the Army, Air Force and a commission in the Navy which afforded him the opportunity to lead at a high level in the Marine Corps.  He is an accomplished athlete, podcast host and has many other titles he could place on his name.  However, his message of resilience resonates so powerfully as a human being - first and foremost.  We discuss so many important topics it is hard to list them all or focus on just one.  What I will say is that it was a truly amazing story but an even more inspirational message.

In this episode I discuss the importance of creating your own struggle in life so when challenges are thrown your way you can interpret, move through, and use them as a learning experience in your path going forward.

Human nature has many characteristics: ways of thinking, feeling, and acting.  All of these characteristics are said to happen naturally - innately - without mental effort.  In moments of crisis or extreme challenge it is amazing to see how training kicks in and humans perform great feats.  My friend Amaury Ponciano was a young Sailor that survived the bombing of the USS Cole (DDG-67) on October 12, 2000.  Not only will his story give you goosebumps; it will leave you with a new perspective on how you learn to move through traumatic experiences.  It is an absolute honor to bring you this story of resilience and overcoming adversity.  'Determined Warrior'
