The Guests
Our guests this week are Dan Witmer and Brandon Epstein, better known as the Zen Dudes. Dan and Brandon are two regular guys who travel around the world teaching people how to jump rope via videos on YouTube.
They created Zen Dude Fitness because they lost 130 pounds collectively after years of struggling to do so. They accomplished the feat with a jump rope and with the world as their gym.
The “Zen Dude” aspect of their company is centered on traveling, exploring, breaking through barriers, and living a more fulfilled life.
Brandon and Dan are on the conquest of finding the most pleasurable way to live life while being able to help as many people as possible.
The Episode
The Zen Dudes are fresh off their retreat to Costa Rica and are here to raise this planet’s collective consciousness.
These guys want you to have more fun and live the life you want. Lucky for you, they explain how to do it in this week’s episode of the Live Different Podcast.
Their tag line “do the thing” means that you have permission to ask yourself “what’s my vision for myself” and go out there and make it happen.
Brandon and Dan were former college football lineman who lost a ton of weight and along the way, optimized their mental and spiritual health to levels they never could have imagined.
