Ever heard of a ceremony where men pierce their chests and pull themselves free to honor childbirth?

What does it take to be a modern-day warrior?

Have you ever wondered how deep the connection between pain and progress can go?

Join me on this episode of “Success for the Athletic-Minded Man” podcast as I sit down with D.J. Vanas.

D.J. is not only a bestselling author and keynote speaker, but also an enrolled member of the Ottawa tribe and a former U.S. Air Force officer. His unique journey from overcoming the hardships of a troubled childhood to delivering programs for NASA, Disney, and the U.S. military is nothing short of inspiring.

In this episode, D.J. shares the profound lessons from his book, "The Warrior Within," mental toughness, and tribal traditions— particularly a powerful and intense ceremony that made my jaw drop! Curious? You’ll have to listen in to hear how this ritual pushes the boundaries of physical and mental endurance.

D.J.’s story is a testament to harnessing inner resilience, much like how athletes push through physical limits. His insights will also challenge you to reflect on your own journey, urging you to push beyond your comfort zones and strive for excellence in every aspect of your life.

Tune in to discover how you can adopt a warrior spirit to achieve clarity, focus, and consistency in business and life. Don’t miss out. Listen now!
