Life’s a Fight — Health
Life’s a Fight

Life’s a Fight is a metaphor for life. It’s a mindset and philosophy that shapes how you approach the challenges in front of you.

This is a low-key, down-to-earth podcast about the ups and downs of life. We’re talking everyday challenges and the big ones, too.

Using my life and experiences as the backbone—Spanish teacher turned UFC fighter, now a professional speaker with a wife and kids—you’ll hear stories, lessons and strategies to help you keep going when you don’t think you can.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and could use some help fighting your fight, this is for you.

Hosted by former UFC fighter and teacher Charlie “The Spaniard” Brenneman.

AMXtalks 252 - General Vincent Brooks, Mayor Adrian Perkins - Strong Leaders at West Point & Beyond Oct 10, 2019

Show notes

Two conversations this time! At West Point's Diversity and Inclusion Leadership Conference, The Spaniard got to know two graduates who made history as cadets and proceeded to admirable careers of service. Each was the first African-American to hold his prestigious cadet position. General Vincent Brooks (U.S. Army, Ret.) became Cadet First Captain (joining the likes of Robert E. Lee and Douglas MacArthur) on his way to earning four stars and spending time in 80 different countries over a 38-year military career, with his final command United States Forces Korea. The Honorable Adrian Perkins (Captain, U.S. Army, Ret.) became class president as a cadet, received a Bronze Star while serving in the middle east, graduated Harvard Law and ran for his current position as mayor of his hometown, Shreveport, Louisiana. Both men emphasize the power of embracing differences to help reach big group goals. General Brooks comes first. Mayor Perkins begins at 33:10.

Today, we're talking all about learning environments, and which ones make specialization a good course of action. We also take a look at humans vs. machines whereas it relates to the cognitive assets of both (though technically, I'm not sure that word relates to machines).

Show notes

Boy, there's a great dichotomy that exist between listening to/NOT listening to experts. And sometimes it's because the experts are "experts." Do the work. Learn. Become an expert, or at least well-versed enough to have the conversation. Ask away, but also learn away.
