Adam Wiśniewski. Mężczyźni stracili instynkt walki | Mentallista #013

In the thirteenth episode of The Mentallist, Emil Dąbrowski's guest is Adam Wiśniewski. An athlete, coach, martial arts competitor, husband, and father. A man who has been testing himself for years in training, work, and life, but his most important battle isn't on the mat, but for his people. This is a conversation about men who find it increasingly difficult to take the first step. About the couch that kills a warrior. About discipline that builds character, but can also turn into self-torture. Adam speaks directly about training, ego, violence, depression, working on platforms, separation from family, and why true strength isn't always about striking. This conversation is full of harsh words, but beneath them lies a very simple focus: family. His daughters, for whom he wants to be present. His wife, who was there when an injury robbed him of his mobility. Home, which isn't an address, but rather people to whom he longs to return. This episode is about the fighting instinct. Not only on the mat. But also in life, work, and family. Prefer to listen? The Mentallist is now on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1z5aofP...
