A master motivator and speaker, Steve has traveled the country telling his story and inspiring audiences. Steve’s childhood was layered with periods of instability. Bouncing back and forth between his father and his mother, Steve and his twin brother ultimately settled into the single parent lifestyle, being raised mostly by their mother. Steve has witnessed first hand the destruction that addiction, violence, and incarceration can do to a family…but the experiences weren’t all bad. He believes now that it was the storms in life that have ultimately brought him to a place of purpose, peace, and hope. Finding his way in life through sport and the guidance of a few key people, he ended up at the top public university in the nation, the University of Virginia, where he found himself wrestling for the national championship in front of 15,000 people and millions more watching on ESPN. Steve is now mentoring young men as the head wrestling coach at the University of Virginia. If you don’t have time to listen to the

Nate grew up in a sheltered lifestyle and did not participate in organized sports until age 24 when he first became exposed to MMA. After a period of self-discovery, he rejected his Jehovah's Witness upbringing, which he later characterized as a cult who control their members 24 hours a day. This led to expulsion from the Jehovah’s Witness faith and caused him to become alienated from his family and former friends. He began to associate with others outside of the church and along the way began to train in mixed martial arts fighting. He landed a spot on the Ultimate Fighter tv show and eventually made his way to Team Quest in Oregon. He fought 22 professional fights, winning 18. He’s now an entrepreneur with his hands in multiple businesses.

In the fall of 2014, I gave a TED Talk titled “Why I Teach My Children to Fail.” Instantly, I had people asking me to speak to their company, organization or team. “Failure” was the topic that resonated most. When I launched the podcast last year, I had intended on failure being a part of my message but I’ve come to realize that failure IS my message. We all experience it. It hurts. It leads to a lowering your goals, settling for less and letting go of your dreams. My mission is to help you normalize failure and use it to boost you to greater levels of success like it has for the great ones… Michael Jordan, Richard Branson, Steve Jobs . You, my audience, has told me that you enjoy learning not only the stories and habits of successful people but also how they were able to fail and still find success.   Because of this, I am changing the name of the podcast from Wrestling with Success to Success Through Failure. The name change will more clearly define to those who come across the show that the core message is

Anthony's clients refer to him as “Truckstop”. It was a nickname he earned while playing college and NFL football because he attacked people and hit them so hard they were stopped in their tracks…but he just kept moving. The name stuck because that’s now the way he attacks life. He attacks head on and just won’t stop. It’s ironic because he spent the first 14 years of his life being told he was worthless and would never amount to anything while experiencing hell in foster care. Anthony was the first and only one in his family to earn a college degree. He married his high school sweetheart, played in the NFL, built and run his own successful business, and has trained thousands of people ranging from professional athletes to stay at home moms to get healthy and strong. He’s now an author, a consultant for billion dollars a year companies, father of 3, and he speaks across the globe to help people change their lives.

Well, for years after I was done competing, I struggled to get clear on my goals again and even how to stay focused on them- day in, day out- with all the distractions that come with life. It was discouraging and I felt myself slipping into mediocrity. I knew I could outwork anyone but I didn't know what I was supposed to be outworking them on!

Learn more here: http://www.RevealYourPath.com You hear everyone these days talking about mindset and toughness and grit…  well guess what?  You and I are former athletes. We checked that box.  Now what? How do we apply our mindset to attack clearly defined goals- like we had when we were competing- to do the things we know we can do? You and I know we can outwork and outperform anyone but often times we don't. You’re a former athlete and you’re reading this email so I imagine you enjoy challenges…  but what are the right challenges? What are the right goals? What's the next step? The next goal? Not just an arbitrary goal but one that get you out of bed in the morning. You want a clear framework for setting goals-- the right goals for you-- and achieving them. If I were to guess, being average scares the crap out of you. You don't want to "play to the level of your competition." You want to be significant. Or MORE significant. You want to crush it in your job. You want to be an awesome dad
