Kendall Reusing is an 8-time world champion black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, founder of Jiu Jitsu Accelerator (JJA), and host of the Get a Grip Podcast. She’s also one of the most respected commentators and entrepreneurs in the BJJ world. In this conversation, we discuss her competitive journey, building a personal brand in Jiu-Jitsu, and her impact on women in the sport. We also talk about her entrepreneurial drive, how she carved out a commentary career at high-profile BJJ events, and the mindset required to overcome injuries, navigate identity challenges, and perform at the highest level — whether competing at ADCC, behind the mic, or beyond.Partners:JNGL ATHLETICO:  https://jnglathletico.com?sca_ref=5391573.ojJfvDfSXJ  Use code NICHOLSANDDIMEZ for 25% offHOSTAGE TAPE:  https://www.hostagetape.com/CHRIS28059 PURE HIMALAYAN SHILAJIT: https://www.purehimalayanshilajit.com/?ref=4021  Use code DIMEZ for 40% offChapters:00:00 – Introduction05:32 – Kendall Reusing’s Jiu-Jitsu Accelerator Program & Why It Was Created10:10 – Building a Personal Brand in Jiu-Jitsu & Social Media Growth16:00 – Impact on Women in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu; Personal Branding & Business Approach20:14 – Who Is Kendall’s Audience?24:39 – Kendall’s Childhood Background; Family; How She Got Into Wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu; Family BJJ Schools29:10 – Entrepreneurship in BJJ & MMA: Learning How to Sell & Launching BJJ Schools with Her Parents38:40 – BJJ Commentating Career & Most Memorable Moments46:50 – ADCC 2024 Experience & Kendall’s Next Big Goal in Competition52:55 – Overcoming Injuries & Identity Challenges in Elite BJJ56:31 – Preparing Mentally and Physically to Perform at Your Best Follow Kendall Reusing:Kendall Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kendallreusing/JJA IG: https://www.instagram.com/jiujitsuaccelerator/ Kendall Reusing website: https://kendallreusing.com/ Get a Grip Podcast on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-a-grip-with-kendall-reusing/id1657806916 https://www.youtube.com/@kendallreusingbjj Follow Chris Nichols:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicholsanddimez Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/builtforlegacypodcast Website: https://builtforlegacy.buzzsprout.com Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/built-for-legacy/id1667715105 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4MAr6sSCwiyU9G1JZgeZxq?si=a7da325d67a64a72 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@builtforlegacypodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/nicholsanddimezshow/100090067950005 Contact: [email protected]
