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.

*There are more than 2300 episodes of this podcast. Some of the older ones look different and have a different format.

AMXbooks 664 - Born a Crime 3 Jan 24, 2019

We dive into one of my favorite things today as we explore the history and culture of S. Africa: language. It was fascinating to learn the prominent and unique role language and communication plays in S. Africa. We also pay homage to one of John Wooden's principles in his Pyramid of Success and see how it relates to Trevor Noah's life.

AMXkids 30 - Wonder 1 Jan 22, 2019

Show notes

I sincerely hope you come along on this journey of Wonder. I believe developing empathy and understanding for others is crucial for a full and vibrant life, and Wonder does a tremendous job of bringing us inside the life, mind and family of Auggie Pullman, a young boy who was born with a facial difference. Read the book, watch the movie, and spread its wonderful message. Enjoy today's show!

AMXbooks 662 - Born a Crime 1 Jan 22, 2019

Show notes

For the first time on The Spaniard Show, I'll be AMX'ing a book that I listened to rather than read. I recently "read" Trevor Noah's "Born a Crime", an incredible book that includes so many important human experiences and covers a wide variety of important subjects. This is special for 2 reasons: 1. Trevor's book is awesome, and 2. By Audible'ing books, I can bring additional awesome learnings to The Spaniard Show.
