In this episode, Chris and Albert begin the new format of the Warrior Soul Podcast, discussing mental and physical health, and delivering tools and tactics for becoming a better version of you. 

Chris discusses his recent trip to Europe and the dark thoughts he had while traveling alone. Albert discusses his struggle dealing with his own negative thoughts and how he's picked up hobbies like music and drawing to fill the void. Additionally, the guys talk about their latest fitness journies and what they're doing to stay in great shape. 

In this episode, Chris and Albert discuss the importance of living like you're dying. Far too many people go through life believing that they actually have something to lose. This holds them back from being their true selves. 

This week, Chris and Albert continue to address the question of understanding when we need to make a change. Albert delivers his insights on the major question that everyone should be asking themselves before they undertake anything. 

Contrary to popular belief, there's times in our lives when we should quit. There's also times when we should push through. There's also a time when you can restart something you haven't finished. 

In this episode, Chris takes you through the logic he's used through his life in determining these situations. Big thank you to the listener who emailed this question!

Chris Albert Palmitessa and Albert Carrasco discuss measures they've taken to deal with past trauma, raise their self confidence, and present their authentic selves to those around them. 

This is more of a rant than anything. We all face obstacles no matter who we are, and they only get more difficult the more we accomplish. 

I haven't done an episode in a bit, so I thought I'd update you guys on where I'm at. I recently purchased a second property, which is a big deal for me because just a few short years ago, I thought owning any property would never happen for me. 

Ernest Hemingway is both an icon of American literature and widely considered to be the epitome of a man's man. On top of being an accomplished hunter and fisherman, Hemingway was a boxer. He served in World War I as an ambulance driver, and was present at Normandy on D-Day during World War II as a war correspondent. 

Hemingway is also known for his alcoholism and the tragedy of his life. He was married five times, and he died by his own hand. 

What many people don't know, is that Hemingway suffered from 9 concussions throughout his life. This is in addition to being hit in the head countless times as a boxer, and being in proximity to numerous explosions during his service in World War I. 

This created a downward spiral that eventually left Hemingway unable to write a sentence.

With obvious parallels between the life of Hemingway and those of so many Veterans, I thought it important to discuss this Hemingway's TBI's on this podcast. 

A lot of us are stuck where we don't want to be because we have never taken the first step toward getting to be somewhere better. 

Rob Hyde is a US Marine Corps Veteran and business owner from Connecticut. He is currently running for US Senate. 

In this episdoe, we discuss Rob's service in the Marine Corps, his volunteer work to help Veterans, and why he's choosing to run for Senate.
