Happily Misfit Podcast

If you've ever been interested in the meaning behind the belts in Martial Arts, this podcast is for you. In this episode, I speak with Cody Farmer - aspiring sensei and dojo owner. We scrape the surface of how Martial Arts is the world's oldest self-development process.

Towards the end of the interview for Episode #1, I asked Dave a few additional questions related specifically to racing - NASCAR vs. Indy Car. If you're a racing fan, or enjoyed my original discussion with Dave, this episode is for you. If this is the first episode you've listened to, I suggest going back and listening to Episode 1 where Dave and I discuss his life challenges and what happiness means to him.

Jase is the Owner, Head Coach and Affiliate at CrossFit Retaliation in Columbus, Indiana, CEO of Trionic Human Performance Inc, and Ironman Athlete. In this episode, Jase compares Base Jumping to making the jump into entrepreneurship - and it's a very compelling and colorful story. Jase has had many experiences in life that set him apart from most people…making him the epitome of being happily misfit.

Jacob is Co-Founder and CTO of Fresh Fry LLC, based out of Louisville, KY, which manufactures filtration pods for frying oil. Growing up in small-town Kentucky, Jacob never thought he would eventually make the jump into entrepreneurship. After graduating with an engineering degree and landing a comfortable 40 hr/week job, Jacob decided to forgo security for the search of something more: meaning.

Joann is the Executive Director of Leadership Development at Cummins Inc - a fortune 500 corporation that designs, manufactures, and distributes engines, filtration, and power generation products.

She has tremendous wisdom on leadership and life in general.

Nick courageously turned down an offer to attend Stanford's Graduate School of Business in order to pursue his dream of becoming an Entrepreneur. Things didn't always go as planned for Nick, but his optimistic perspective on life and his faith has kept him going.

Chad is Co-Founder, VP of Audience, Marketing Speaker & Author, Adjunct Professor, Top 20 CMO Influencer & Former Army Commander. He is a top thought leader in the content marketing space. I would consider him a mentor of mine - he's given me many ideas and the courage to pursue my dream.

He began at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway but they have experience in motorsports all around the world.
