In this episode, we sit down with Jesse Elder—unschooled Austin native, former MMA fighter, martial arts empire builder, and self-described action philosopher—for an exploration of his unconventional path. From a childhood shaped by radical trust and self-directed learning, to building and selling multiple martial arts schools, navigating divorce, and reinventing himself as a strategic advisor, Jesse shares the pivotal experiences that shaped his worldview. We explore his philosophy of living without guilt or fear, the importance of curiosity and breaking patterns, and what it means to embody authenticity while blending deep thought with inspired action.
