#137 | Lola - Live To Roll, Roll To Learn

Lola (@zoozitsu) is a Jiu-Jitsu purple belt and she works at Cageside MMA and Toro BJJ

Lola has spent years practicing Jiu-Jitsu, improving her technique, and competing against other Jiu-Jitsu players. It’s fascinating and inspiring to see someone get into Jiu-Jitsu as a parent and fall so deeply in love with the sport. Let’s zoom out and reflect on her growth beyond the scope of sports as an adult. Look at the example of somebody pursuing a passion for the love of it to the point that they work for a company that revolves around her recreation, traveling for her passion, investing in the community, etc. The recreation becomes a lens through which she experiences the world. I believe it’s a beautiful thing when you witness someone who has something to really live for in addition to their children and profession. Lola’s love for Jiu-Jitsu has taken her on a powerful path that is available in recreation if we see it.
