Welcome to the second episode of Season 3! I had to bring it back to one of my previous guests from season 2, MattWahlstrom Owner o Epic Roll BJJ and Black Belt under Silverback BJJ. Matt and I go back a couple of years and it's always fun catching up with him and talking nothing but BJJ and Business. 

Since I last spoke to Matt, his company has sky rocketed into a different world. From sponsorships to athletes to producing his "Yankee" fitted team on PGF Worlds, its been an amazing ride for him and I couldn't wait to start this interview. Along with this, we also talked about Copa Elite 3 and him finally competing as a Black Belt. He had an interesting aspect of why he is competing now and why he truly wants to succeed in everything he does. Outside of BJJ, we talked about his rising Real Estate business and how he manages that along with his BJJ goals. 

Peace. Love. Bye
