I met Scott when I was in college and marveled at how we bet on himself at such a young age when he started his business. He made very little in his first year and worked out of his closet. Today, he continues to run a successful business but his best accomplishment is his marriage with his wife and successfully raising three boys.

When I met Mauro Stara, I told him I wanted to get back in shape after receiving stem cell treatment for my back. His response? “I want to help you change your life.” I didn’t fully understand what he meant—or if I even believed him—but I decided to move forward. Since then, I’ve felt better and looked better than I have in a decade.

Mauro’s journey is unique. He’s lived the corporate life, but chose a path of greater meaning. In this conversation, we explore what led him to dedicate his life to health—not just physical fitness, but full-spectrum well-being.

This isn’t an infomercial. It’s a look behind the curtain of a man on a mission to live better—and help others do the same.

The Oracle Of Athens

I’ve known of Greg Garcia since college. We never interacted before the podcast but I would continue to hear stories about him and how he did things and conducted himself and always wanted to pick his brain. He has lived a very full life and doesn’t plan to slow down anytime soon. Describing him as a lawyer or CPA would be a disservice. When you listen you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. He’s a one of one. He’s Greg Garcia.

Beyond the Gridiron

We discuss his journey through the ranks of football, the challenges he faced, and what kept him motivated. Rashaan also shares his post-career efforts to heal his body from the toll of years on the field and his exciting new venture into soccer (the other football).

Tune in to hear Rashaan's incredible story of determination, adaptability, and his ongoing pursuit of new goals. This episode offers a unique glimpse into the life of an athlete who refuses to be defined solely by his past achievements and is always striving for more.
