Just attended Raj's Blackbelt Mindset Workshop. When I say it 'packed a punch,' it truly did—literally. The crossover between martial arts and running a business is astonishing. Discipline, consistency, mentorship, teachability—all these skills translate seamlessly. Raj’s focus on 'Giving Stress the Karate Chop' is invaluable. Can’t wait to read The Black Belt Mindset—a potential life-saver.
