The Impact of Giving Back Through Martial Arts with Leo Barahona
Manage episode 159995587 series 164453
Leo Barahona has a great story that is currently unfolding with an amazing new goal. A U.S. Veteran who owns a martial arts school in Texas, Leo’s teachings go far beyond just learning the physical skills. It’s also about creating a safe space, a community, and teaching the philosophy and wisdom of martial arts. Leo’s impact to the world is about helping people understand themselves and giving them the knowledge, skills and self-esteem to be successful and to make their own impact in the world. Now, Leo is transforming his for-profit business into a non-profit, which allows him to expand the options, to fund more students at no-charge to them, to create new specialized courses for various groups in need, and to grow the community beyond Texas. Leo’s passion is for helping people because that’s what people did for him in his youth, and without it, he wouldn’t be where he is today. In this conversation with Christopher Swan, Leo shares his experiences, how they connect to his ongoing mission, and how he’ll make a bigger impact.
