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 238 - Solosode on Recording Changes & NEW BOOK Jul 04, 2019

Show notes

Let's use an up-to-the-minute term and call this a BizDev Ep: business development episode. Here come the latest behind-the-scenes details as The Spaniard and Dread shape a sustainable, profitable enterprise centered on this podcast. This discussion involves pivots (shifting operations due to new situations, desires, aims or understandings), experiments (trying stuff to better use resources) and products (creating things of value). Those three initials unintentionally spell P-E-P, and a business does kinda revolve around energy, so let's go with it! Spanny PEP-ily explains a pivot away from live streaming while recording, some experiments in marketing, and the twisty-turny path to producing his new book. This is juicy stuff for anyone trying to build anything. Please note the book-related bonuses you can grab when you join the mailing list at charliespaniard.com/email.

AMXbooks 776 - Hershey 1 Jul 01, 2019

Show notes

This promises to be the sweetest series I've done on AMXbooks! See what I did there??? This book is extra special to me for a variety of reasons: 1. My history with Hershey (home the the PIAA state wrestling championships), 2. The role Milton Hershey's example plays in the development of my own business and 3. I live ten minutes from Hershey, and it's a big part of my family's life. Enjoy today's intro episode in what is an extraordinary account of one man's utopian vision turned reality.

AMXbooks 775 - The Untethered Soul 10 Jun 28, 2019

Show notes

Death, "the way" and acceptance wrap up our journey with The Untethered Soul. What a tremendous read. On its cover is the quote, "Read this book carefully and you will get more than a glimpse of eternity." Well, I've read it carefully, and I highly recommend you do as well.

AMXbooks 774 - The Untethered Soul 9 Jun 27, 2019

Show notes

In my life, I've asked myself (and answered myself) a thousand times..."Do you want it?" The echoing answer "yes" never goes away, yet it's rarely without challenge. The work never stops. Today's show examines a variation of that question, as well as connect one of my favorite mentors, Mister Rogers, to our current book.

AMXtalks 237 - Marisa Zerby, Style Blogger/True Color Expert Jun 27, 2019

Show notes

Marisa Zerby knows—with SCIENCE—how to craft A Lovely Living. The science part is training that made her a True Color Expert able to make perfect recommendations for home decor. Her lifetstyle blog alovelyliving.com abounds with ideas for style, food, DIY projects and more. Does Marisa sound like a surprising guest for a podcast from a pro fighter? Not when that fighter is all about learning, any kind of learning, like The Spaniard! Not to mention that Marisa is married to Spanny's long-time friend (and guest on AMXtalks 85) Jack Zerby. Jack sits in on this conversation about following passions and simultaneously building a family and business. If only Marisa had been on hand to advise Spanny against a recent use of paint in his family's current apartment … (Listen for that)
