What if you could find the perfect balance between a rigorous military career and a passion for martial arts? Join us for an eye-opening conversation with JP, the founder of Military BJJ Gees and an active-duty soldier.
As he shares his experiences from Fort Drum, New York, JP opens up about the unique challenges he and his wife face adjusting to their new environment. We'll explore JP's ROTC background at the University of Alabama and delve into the financial motivations behind his decision to join the military, while also discussing his plans for the future, both in service and as a family man.
Step into the world of combat sports with JP as he recounts his journey from third-grade football to the adrenaline-fueled arenas of boxing and jiu-jitsu. Learn about the physical and mental resilience needed to progress through the jiu-jitsu belts, and why competing early on is so crucial. We'll discuss the complexities of weight cuts, the discipline instilled by high school wrestling, and the transformative power of martial arts. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or just starting out, JP's insights offer valuable lessons on the determination required to excel in combat sports.
In a heartfelt segment, JP shares the poignant story that led to the creation of his jiu-jitsu gear company, aimed at veteran suicide prevention. Discover the hurdles he faced, from product issues to customer satisfaction, and how he turned a tragic event into a mission-driven business. We'll explore the importance of community support and the personal aspects of balancing entrepreneurship with family life. From the challenges of shipping costs to the joys of building customer loyalty, this episode provides a rich tapestry of stories and lessons for anyone interested in martial arts, military life, or starting a business.
