In this episode, I had a conversation with Luke Barnatt, a mixed martial artist and former UFC fighter. We talked about his journey in the UFC, his podcast business, and his move to Marbella. Luke opens up about his motivations, from why he started his podcast business to what drew him to Marbella a decade ago, and the lessons learned from life inside and outside the octagon.

Luke discusses the power of money in providing 'options' and what it feels like to knock out an opponent in the UFC arena.
