The Powerhouse Mentality
We all have a story. My mission in life and with this podcast is to help you stop tolerating your own bullshit to finally win in life. This podcast will teach you how to become the best version of yourself; mind, body and soul.
When you never stop learning, keep the commitments you make to yourself and intentionally seek discomfort; you are truly limitless.
I'm here to show you through my story and the story of others that anything is possible when you are willing to suffer a little bit more.
