“Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be and embracing who we are.” – Brené Brown
Have you reflected on the question I’ve been asking you lately…
How high can you fly? 🦅

It’s wild how the negative voice in our heads—what I call the dark passenger—often doesn’t even allow us to dream big. The moment you think about stepping into a new challenge, that voice shows up with doubts, excuses, and fear.

You’ve got to stand up to that mental bully and commit to pursuing your authenticity—that’s the keyword for me.

In my book Inner Discovery for Outer Success: 10 Rules to Integrate Authenticity and Performance in Jiu-Jitsu and Beyond, Rule #1 is all about discovering your Why.
Why do you want to fly high? What are your intrinsic and extrinsic motivations?

For me, my strongest intrinsic motivation is the pursuit of authenticity.
And one of my extrinsic motivations? Inspiring YOU to live a more authentic life—on and off the mats.

🎥 The Diary of a Master – Season 2, Episode 2 is now live on The BJJ Mental Coach YouTube channel, where I share insights from my journey to the Pan Championship.

Now it’s your turn:
What’s calling you?
What challenge have you been afraid to say yes to—but deep down, you want it?

Ask yourself again…
How high can YOU fly? 🚀

It’s wild how the negative voice in our heads—what I call the dark passenger—often doesn’t even allow us to dream big. The moment you think about stepping into a new challenge, that voice shows up with excuses, doubts, and fear.

You must stand up to that mental bully living in your head and pursue your authenticity—that’s the key word for me.

In my book “Inner Discovery for Outer Success: 10 Rules to Integrate Authenticity and Performance in Jiu-Jitsu and Beyond”, Rule #1 is about discovering your Why.
Why do you want to fly high? What are your intrinsic and extrinsic motivations?

For me, my strongest intrinsic motivation is pursuing my authenticity.
And one of my extrinsic motivations is to inspire you to live an even more authentic life—on and off the mats.
