Coach. Podcaster. COACHCASTER.

Fear. We all have felt it on some level. Rational or not, fear is one of our most primal sensations. Today's special guest Tony Blauer is here to teach us how to use fear to our advantage, to truly understand what it does to us but, more importantly, what it can do for us. His organization, Blauer Tactical Systems, has trained thousands of everyday individuals like us, actors prepping for demanding roles, celebrities, and even our nation's police forces and military special operations groups.

Tony has been in the martial art, self-defense, defensive tactics and combatives industry for almost four decades and is one of the only combatives experts who has successfully affected training across all the combat related communities: self-defense, combat sports and the military & law enforcement sector. His research on physiology and mindset as it relates to confrontation management has influenced over three decades of reality-based martial artists.

We are more than excited to share with you this very special conversation with our good friend Jason Phillips. Jason is a neighbor to us here in the DC/Northern Virginia area and welcomed Ever Forward Radio into his home for this very candid interview. We learn about his "Thanksgiving miracle" where he went from being overdrawn in his account to how he is now a multiple seven-figure business owner, his battle with anorexia and how transformed his body and mind to become a professional athlete and sought after source on all things nutrition and fitness.

Jason Phillips has been everywhere and done everything. From cover model to professional athlete, to founder of iN³ Nutrition. Jason has written for several publications including Men’s Fitness and his own book, Macros Explained. Jason has completely revolutionized nutrition coaching. His approach is rooted in the foundation that a proper prescription is based on each unique individual, not a template of information based on physical statistics. he has created an unprecedented level of access within the nutrition coaching relationship, whether your goal is performance based, improving aesthetics, or simply a healthier lifestyle.

It is with great excitement that I bring you episode one (of three) with the gentleman of Mind Pump. One of my favorite podcast discoveries of 2017 that has turned into some really incredible friendships. Adam Schafer is a men's IFBB pro competitor, co-host of Mind Pump and overall just real dude with so much insight and wisdom into the fitness industry. We talk mainly about how our success in life and the gym is so heavily dependent upon the quality of our relationships. Who we let in our life and, more importantly, who we let go of.
