EP. 439: Finding Your Rhythm | A Journey Of Growth | Johnny Utah
Manage episode 481064391 series 1084973
Hey everyone, welcome back to the Truth From The Stand podcast. In today’s episode, I’m catching up with my buddy Johnny to talk about life’s evolution—balancing family, chasing whitetails, and pursuing personal passions like jiu-jitsu. We dive into how parenting and the pressures of the hunting industry shift your perspective, and why finding community and staying true to your pursuits matters more now than ever.
We also dig into the parallels between hunting and jiu-jitsu—how real growth usually comes from leaning into discomfort, and how being intentional, whether you're in the woods or on the mats, makes all the difference. Johnny and I talk about confidence, the struggle with promotions, and how competition (in any area of life) sharpens you if you let it.
We also dive into Iowa whitetails, lessons learned from missed opportunities, and how planning—whether for a big hunt or the next tournament—is what really sets you up for success. It's a conversation about preparation, grit, and why shared experiences in the outdoors always seem to bring it all full circle.
- Life changes force you to reset your priorities and rethink how you spend your time
- Growth comes from leaning into discomfort and showing up when it’s hard.
- Real progress demands discipline over motivation.
- Community and vulnerability are the real engines behind growth.
- The worst training days and the biggest hunting misses usually teach you the most.
- Planning and intentionality in both hunting and training lead to better, more consistent outcomes.
