Life is tough for everyone, some more than others. It’s not a question of whether or not we have or will face adversity but a matter of how we bear it that counts. Whether you grew up in an abusive home, without a father or mother in your life, overcome depression, addiction, and/or suicidal thoughts, every single one of us struggles.
And, my guest today, world champion Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt, Tom DeBlass, is no exception to that. Today, Tom and I talk about his new book, How You Bear It. We also talk about the importance of doing things the right way versus chasing wins, how to keep yourself centered in the midst of chaos, why and how purpose can be found in service to others, how to keep ourselves from self-sabotaging, and so much more.

My guest today is a Brazilian Jiu-Jistu Black Belt World Champion, Tom DeBlass. He’s a No Gi World Champion, a Pan American Champion, a No Gi Pan American Champion…you get the point. He’s an absolute beast on the mats and someone I’ve respected for a very long time not only for his performance on the mats but his performance off of them.
He’s also happens to be a world-class coach as he heads dozens of academies and has coached some of the most elite level athletes in the world. Tom is someone who learned early how to take the self-healing powers of martial arts to improve himself and his students around the world.
Tom is a very fascinating person and his perspective of life and his experiences are something all of us can relate to some degree. Enjoy.
