EE 059: One Violent Encounter Can Change Your Life with Aaron Westphal

For Episode 059 I drove to Kalispell Montana to record this episode with Aaron Westphal. Aaron is a deputy with the Flathead County Sheriff's Office and experienced a violent encounter many years ago that completely shifted his approach to training and capabilities needed for patrol. Since then, he has dedicated much of his life to training and recently received his black belt in jiu jitsu out of Straight Blast Gym Kalispell. I spent an evening there, training with the team and can’t say enough good things about that academy. If you’re local, definitely check it out! Andy Stumpf also let me use the Cleared Hot Studio for this episode, so I didn’t have to bring all my equipment on the road trip! If you’re watching on YouTube and it looks oddly familiar that is why! Thank you, Andy, for the generosity, and thank you Aaron for sharing invaluable information from your vast experience on the road as a law enforcement officer. Please enjoy Episode 059 of the Endless Endeavor Podcast. --- Connect with Aaron on: Instagram: @aaronwestphal734 Connect with me on: Instagram: @granderson33 Check out my linktr.ee: https://linktr.ee/Granderson33 Episode resources: LMNT drinklmnt.com/endlessendeavor for a free variety sample pack just pay $5 shipping here in the US.

Om Podcasten

What's up guys, my name is Greg Anderson, and after spending a decade in the Special Operations/Para-Military community and 14 overseas deployments, I pursued a new career in Law Enforcement with the interest in putting the deployment lifestyle behind me. In light of so many events in 2020 regarding law enforcement I decided to speak up on the behalf of the profession and it ultimately cost me my job, but because of this I’ve taken my life in a new direction and one of my pursuits is launching this podcast! The Endless Endeavor Podcasts was created with the understanding that life is a continuous and arduous journey. I’ve learned that the only way I can grow and develop as a human is maintaining an understanding that there is always a lot to learn and preserve a curiosity across a wide spectrum of interests. Through this journey of life I have had the honor to walk amongst giants and look forward to bringing our listeners quality content on a variety of topics. We will be delving into military operations, jiu jitsu and martial arts, liberty and freedom, tactical proficiency, health and wellness, overcoming depression and PTSD, leadership and team dynamics, parenting, law enforcement and so much more.
