Bazzel Baz has emerged to be one of the most special men I have interacted with in a very long time. A true warrior of the physical and spiritual kind. Individuals like him are of the rarest breed in my opinion and experience and I can only hope that as I evolve and mature, one day I can join the ranks of these great men. Bazzel has lived the life of a warrior and has done everything from CIA spec...

I have always spoken of firearms as the ultimate equalizer. It doesn’t matter how strong, weak, big, or small, if you know how to use a gun, you have a say on the outcome of a situation with regards to humans. This is why I believe all females should really take a serious understanding of how to use multiple weapon systems but in this case Firearms specifically. Gina is a woman who has chosen to d...

With so much going on around the topic of COVID-19 I figured it would benefit all of us to hear from a very close friend of mine who is operating on the front lines, he works urgent care in Las Vegas where there’s quite a break out right now. His name is Kirk Robinson and he was my Corman back when I was in the Marine Corps, we fought in a war together and still talk on a weekly basis to this very...

In this episode, I talk about Life… Struggle… Purpose… Focus and the overall path to success.

Victor Marx is a very unique and amazing man and his story is one of restoration and metamorphic triumph on many levels. I actually met him at a marriage retreat years ago for the first time.

Nonetheless, when I first heard him speak, many of my perspectives were changed forever. He has...

He is a local rapper who grew up in the area, who has a deep understanding of the social a...

One of them embodies the cool, calm but aggressively calculated body language of a professional, wh...

This interview with Andrei was fantastic, he in some ways seems to be a very simple man but in other ways, he’s very sophisticated. He explains that he is a perfectionist while at the same time he has a funny European sense of humor. What I found most interesting and inspirational about this conversation is that it reinforces much of what should be known about the true warrior spirit. Real warrior...

Yousef Badou teaches what I think is simply the most important component of protection, situational awareness coupled with the ability to read and predict people through human behavior. As I try to spread the art of a protection like a virus I have found Yousef to be one of my greatest allies simply because spreading soft skills is easier than spreading hard skills and so we aim to spread situatio...
