Ever been stuck in a rut, wondering how to progress in your personal journey, whether it's in jujitsu or life? Together, we're going to tackle that. Using the lens of jujitsu, we explore how the lessons we learn on the mat can be extrapolated to our daily lives, helping us overcome hurdles like panic, doubt and self-shaming. We celebrate the recent blue belt achievement of our fellow jujitsu practitioner, Billy, and draw inspiration from his journey. We also embark on a deep-dive into my own jujitsu journey, discussing the challenges I've faced particularly when combating skilled opponents and my inner struggle with hesitation and uncertainty.

Jujitsu is more than just a martial art; it's a mirror reflecting our inner strengths and weaknesses. This episode digs into the concept of progress in jujitsu, which extends beyond belt colors and technical mastery. We're going to talk about the importance of regulating emotions, avoiding self-shaming, and the role of doubt in our growth. In fact, we argue that doubt isn’t always the enemy – it can be your ally, a messenger reminding you to recommit to your path and seek new information. Grab your gi and join us as we celebrate progress, illuminate the path to growth, and learn how to harness the power of doubt.
