A Winning Mindset for MMA: Jillian DeCoursey's Road to Becoming Invicta FC Champ

A Black Belt Way of Life

A mental health counselor by day and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, and MMA practitioner by night, former Invicta FC Atomweight Champion Jillian "The Lionheart" DeCoursey chats with Master Joe in the Black Belt Way of Life Studio. We learn how she balances her career as a business owner and professional mixed martial artist en route to becoming a world champion at the age of 38 and how her late start in martial arts did not deter her from beating Jessica Delboni to win the 105lb belt. DeCoursey breaks down what goes into a championship fight camp from proper dieting, nutrition, having a mental health coach, and, most importantly - the right team around you in a gym like Long Island MMA and Eric Ruiz from Ringsport Muay Thai. Plus, how she was able to use her own career as a mental health counselor to help herself and others in life to become a better person in and out of the cage. This is one episode you will not want to miss!
