joe de sena

Joe De Sena is one of my true heroes. I've been doing obstacle course races for years now and I love the Spartan brand.

Unlike in other industries, where a business is selling solutions to make life easier or more fun. Joe built his business around doing the opposite -- trying to get people to do HARD, uncomfortable things.

Starting out, most people thought he was crazy to try to do such a thing. But today over 100 million people around the world have participated in a Spartan Race.

It was a dream and an honor to have Joe on the Liberty Ventures podcast. I invite you to listen to this one all the way through for his very unique approach to life and business.

Plus you won't want to miss out on us doing burpees!

The Episode I absolutely had to have when I first gave birth to The CLS Experience. I manifested this conversation the day I finished Joe’s book, Spartan Up. I read that book at a time in my life when I was searching for purpose and an outlet to deploy my energy and passions. Joe provided the idea, I turned it into 4 Marathons in 1 year. Thanks Joe. Without further ado.
