#08 Power of Language in Coaching w. Mike Bledsoe and Mark England Jun 29, 2019

Show notes

Mark England is a TEDx speaker and co-founder of Procabulary and Enlifted. He has a Masters degree in International Education and has been researching, presenting and coaching on the power of words for over a decade. In his free time he loves to travel, dance and practice Martial Arts.

Empowering the body-mind connection is an absolute must in Mike Bledsoe's world.

A lifetime of athletics and training, along with being a coach and entrepreneur for the last decade, he has tapped into parts of himself that were once unknown. Simultaneously competing in the sport of weightlifting, coaching national caliber athletes, running a 7 figure business with 20+ employees, and hosting the #1 rated Fitness & Nutrition podcast on iTunes (Barbell Shrugged) took a lot personal growth just to keep up. After hitting the ceiling of capacity many times over he discovered and distilled the processes that create the greatest expansion for capacity and growth. In the last year Mike launched The Strong Coach, a program for personal professional development for coaches, which has already begun transforming the way coaches interact with their clients and build their businesses. He is also in the process of building a new brand called Enlifted, a program to that teaches athletes a dynamic system of thinking to take on any challenge with style and courage. Mike is a US Navy veteran, holds a degree in Health & Human Performance, and has accumulated numerous health & fitness certifications. He spent the last 7 years traveling the world interviewing the top athletes, coaches, scientists, and researchers to find what creates a successful athlete and entrepreneur. Through the journey of studying what they do, to the underlying principles their actions are based upon, to digging deeper to find what is actually creating success, he has found clear distinctions and practices that separate those who live an optimized lifestyle from the rest of the crowd.
