Ep. 324: Breaking Social Contracts, feat. Josh "Kintanon" Wentworth

This week we're joined again by Josh "Kintanon" Wentworth from Apex MMA in Covington, Georgia! In this episode, Josh discusses "social contracts" in Jiu-Jitsu and how to break them. Social contracts are the unwritten rules we abide by, which often aren't actually rules. Social contracts can become invisible mental scripts and self-limiting habits that hold us back from our best performance in every roll.
