You’ve quit drinking. You’ve smashed tough workouts. You’ve nailed big life goals.
So why does your relationship with food still feel so… hard?

In this episode, I’m sharing what Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been teaching me—10 months in and still flailing—about why progress doesn’t always look how we expect it to.

I’ve trained in martial arts for over 30 years. I’ve coached, taught, and competed. And yet? BJJ still humbles me.
Just like weight loss humbles so many people who are more than capable in every other area of life.

We talk:

• Why mastery in one area doesn’t always transfer

• Why food feels like the final boss, even for high performers

• The truth about skill acquisition vs. just “wanting it”

• And what real progress actually looks like

If you’ve ever felt ashamed that this should be easier by now—this one’s for you.
