Be Brave #5 - Coach First, Friend Second: Embracing Change and Finding Clarity in 2025 Solosode

In this solo episode, I share insights on what it truly means to be a coach first before being a student’s friend—a balance that’s vital in building trust, respect, and growth within the jiu-jitsu community. I also unveil the transition of our podcast’s identity, as we evolve from The 2nd Floor to Be Brave. This rebrand marks a powerful new chapter, aligned with a vision of courage, authenticity, and growth. Lastly, I reflect on my journey of enlightenment while decluttering my life—letting go of items, habits, and beliefs that no longer serve me, and finding clarity in simplicity. Tune in for an episode filled with transformation, lessons in leadership, and inspiration to embrace change.
