Description

My guest today is Julio Rivera — an author, mental health advocate, and lifelong martial artist.





With more than 25 years of training, Julio holds black belt rankings in three different martial arts styles. He once owned his own school and now shares his knowledge through private lessons and workshops.





Beyond the dojo, Julio is a passionate voice for mental health awareness. His first book, Brokedown Sensei: How I Fought Trauma and Bipolar Disorder from the Outside In, details his personal journey and is available on Amazon. His latest release, Internal Jiu Jitsu: Conquering Mind and Body Resistance by Giving Way, came out in May and explores the deeper connections between martial arts, resilience, and self-mastery.





Please join me in welcoming Julio Rivera to the show!
