From Jeff Cisneros: Hard to believe 21 years ago today I became a full-time entrepreneur! My journey has been one of many ups & downs, to many heartbreaks to count, set back after set back, but ultimately I've been able to live life on my terms. Success for me has never been about how full my bank account is, but rather how full my heart is! Something I've learned from day one is believe in yourself, because most won't, love yourself, because nobody else can until you do, and most importantly, take risks without thinking, just jump off that cliff and build the plane on the way down because that my friends is entrepreneurship!  CEO at Spartan Labs CEO at Sparta Entertainment CEO at Sparta Media Group CEO at Sparta Sports and Entertainment

Christopher Wolff has an amazing story. Here is a summary in his words On September 11, 2001 I was in NYC where I missed my ferry which was supposed to take me across the harbor to have breakfast inside the windows of the world at the top of the World Trade Center. This day was reason I enlisted in the Air Force. During my 6th deployment, my aircraft that was flying over Afghanistan underwent an RPG attack that it shouldn’t have survived from. But it did and I returned home safely and intact. Upon returning home, the Air Force required us to receive our annual flu shot. The vaccine paralyzed me from the neck down. I was a C4 quadriplegic for 2 years. It has been 7 years since the beginning of my paralysis and I have worked tirelessly to overcome my obstacles and am now a T12 Paraplegic with enough motor function in my upper legs to be able to walk with forearm crutches.  I started working out at the Adaptive Training Foundation in January of 2016 and I have gained the ability to walk further distances. On October 29th, 2017 I competed with my Adaptive Training Foundation Team and we completed a Spartan Sprint in 4:30. That was the longest distance to date that I have walked (Which was over 1 mile).  I’m looking forward to many more obstacle courses and physical challenges. Chris just completed his Spartan Trifecta with The help of @Operation Enduring Warrior. It as an honor to have you on our show Chris
