Happy Tuesday! In this episode, I talk about the origin of thoughts, specifically limiting beliefs. Once you start becoming aware of your thoughts, you might find some unpleasant ones. I have found it helpful to track down the experience that led to that thought so that I can forgive and overcome that belief. You do not have to be confined by these beliefs and with a little work, you too can conquer your mind and get back to living the life you are destined to!

Happy Tuesday Yall! In this episode, I talk about mental rehearsal. What thoughts are going through your head on a daily basis? As an athlete, I used imagery and my thoughts as a tool to get better at the sport. Now that I am not competing, how can I take the same tool and use it to help me live a more fulfilled life? Lets work on having thoughts that serve us instead of bring us down!  Subscribe and Follow for more content! @RomanTheEmpire #RomanAround

If you have followed the podcast, you have unknowingly been with me through my journey growing out my hair. It has been almost 2 years with no hair cuts. During this time, I have experienced a lot of adversity, life changes, and personal growth, which I share here.  Last week, I decided to give it a cut and donate my luscious locks to Wigs4Kids, a local grassroots non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that provides wigs and support services at no charge to children and young adults experiencing hair loss due to cancer, alopecia, trichotillomania, burns, and other disorders. . I hope that my hair can help a young boy or girl have the confidence to show up and continue to battle whatever it is that they are facing.  Be sure to subscribe, share, and review the podcast.  Follow me @RomanTheEmpire #RomanAround

In this episode, I share the amazing experience I had with a fundraiser that our wrestling club, C2X Wrestling Academy, had this weekend. On November 7-8 from noon to noon, we had over 30 individuals participate in 24 hours of fitness. This was a different workout, every hour on the hour. We did this to raise money to grow the sport of wrestling in the Carolinas and support families that have children with life-altering diseases.  Listen to some of the challenges we hit, the things we learned, the special guests that stopped in, and the fun we had. It was an amazing time that we got to spend together for a cause that is greater than us.  If you would like to donate, you can do so at this link- https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/donateC2X?locale.x=en_US
