Hey everyone, thanks for tuning to Power Athlete Radio.

Our guest this week, Laura Sanko, thinks that you should get punched in the face.

Okay, not that you should, but that everyone has the fortitude deep within them to physically fight.

This is something that she found in herself at a young age

and is carried with her throughout her MMA career and training.

Now she extends those same learning lessons into her work with novice athletes

with the program Wimp to Warrior.

Here it is, episode 545.

For the toll I'm smoking, going down the road.

The greatest moment of that whole thing was, uh, Rade as like the preseason ended, you know,

usually it's actually this week.

We have that week off and then, uh, you know, practice starts.

So they'd always give everybody a little bit of time off.

So Tony and all them, everybody, like, went home. I stayed and then the, you know, practice starts. So they'd always give everybody a little bit of time off. So Tony and all them, everybody like went home. I stayed and Kyle Turley hits me up and he's like, hey, the guys from Nickelback are finishing their tour. And I know the guy that does their pyrotechnics, do you want to go to dinner with them? So we went to this like big like thing that was in, God, what's the steakhouse right there on the plaza? Plaza three?

Yeah, Plaza three.

So it was downstairs in Plaza three. They had this huge thing. And so we were hanging out just like had a steakhouse. And then we ended up meeting the dudes from Nickelback, which is hilarious because they're, my mom's from Canada from Lethbridge, which is just across the border like Medicine Hatleth Bridge like South in Calgary

and those dudes

the my mom's from Canada from Lethbridge, which is just across the border, like Medicine Hat,
