Customer Reviews
As inspirational as it is informational
The way Jans approaches life and mindset is absolutely the way we all should. His views and passion are obvious and he’s focused on making the world a better place and helping us all become better in the process.
I fully recommend this podcast if you are ready to explore a deeper relationship between yourself, your athletic pursuits and life in general.
Clean, to the point and actionable
Jans podcasts are addictive. They are incredibly insightful and an extension of who he is as a person. Vulnerable, raw and unapologetically authentic. I’m hooked
Love hearing the thoughts of athletes
