Sage Bender is one of the most impressive 23-year olds I have met to date. Here's just a few things he's done: • Became a black belt in Jiu Jitsu at 21 years old, a feat that typically takes 10-20 years to achieve. • Founded Nomad Jiu Jitsu Club, his very own jiu jitsu and MMA gym based in Florida. • Amassed over 1.2M followers across social media. This episode goes DEEP on the importance of discipline, avoiding excuses, and how he manages his time effectively. This is a must listen for any young entrepreneur looking to become a stud in every area of their life. -- Timestamps (00:24) Sage's Start on TikTok (04:07) Social Media Fame vs. Providing Value (28:59) Why Sage Started Jiu-Jitsu (34:32) How he won double gold at NOGI Worlds by 16 (35:12) How he trained through a severe arm injury (39:20) Sage's Jiu-Jitsu gym setup (47:47) Sage's Schedule: Gym management, training, and being the Creative Director @ Squid Haus (52:22) Challenges of competing at the black belt level (56:47) His past struggles with smoking (1:01:11) How energy and passion can lead to success. -- 🥋 Check out Sage on: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sxgebender ➤ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@sagebender ➤ Website: https://www.nomadjjclub.com/ 🦑 Check out SquidHaus on: ➤ Website: https://squidhaus.com/ ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/squidhausofficial/ ➤ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@squidhausofficial
