On this episode we chop it up with Professor Joel Heinen of Gracie Barra Research Forest. Joel has been a long time friend and training partner of mine at GB The Woodlands. It was obvious to me that his love for the art mixed in with his business sense would some day birth his own Brazilian Jiu Jitsu studio. Fast forward to 2023 and now he stands at the precipice of this vision come to life. We discuss all ends of becoming a business owner and what he hopes to provide for the people here in The Woodlands Texas. On the back half we have a fun chat about the direction or lack of direction from our favorite sports team the Houston Rockets. We play make believe general manager and try to solve their 3yr skid. Hope you enjoy this episode of the podcast and as always go out and be that someone.
