Joe comes on the show and is our first competitive college fighter.  Joe spent over 20 years at the national and international competitive level for Judo.  When it finally came time to move on to what was going to happen after sports he realized that he needed to continue to dream big.

When you don't have the traditional skill set that employers are looking for what can you do set yourself apart?

Today we sit down with an amazing entrepreneur who saw a need and a niche and just went for it!

Maybe you're like me and remember a time when you were the most confident person on the floor and in your element. Most athletes need this type of inner confidence in order to become elite. But what happens when the shoes are put away? How do we continue to be that confident individual? How do we become the person we want to be outside of our sports? 

Your whole life you have had people working with you in your sport. From drills to perfecting skills you've had an expert that you paid for or wanted to see you succeed as bad as you did. How do we find these people after sports? We tackle the subject on this Monday episode.
