From Marine to Mind Master: Dr. Bob Choat on Integration and Potential

Dr. Bob Choat is currently an executive and peak performance coach who grew up labeled as a moron, clinically, due to a currently outdated label for a low IQ test at young age. He developed his body through years of various martials and his mind through his insatiable curiosity and study. He served in the Marine Corps and was later recognized by MENSA for his genius level IQ. His story includes time as an LAPD officer, marine, fifth degree blackbelt, and double PhD in clinical psychology and neuropsychology while he works towards a third in physics!

He was also a certified hypnotist who took to the stage as "Bobby Spade" to perform stage hypnosis. His studies include getting certified as a master trainer in NLP and through the EEG institute to read brain waves. Bob has his own podcast called The School of Transformation and began the Integrated Mind Institute while also writing a book called Mind Your Own Fitness and is soon to launch his new book, Develop the Champion Within.

There is SO much more that could be said about Bob without scratching the surface, which I love. Please enjoy listening to his story, his insights, and advice on several topics including embracing uncertainty, developing curiosity, chasing our passions, becoming our whole self, integrating our shadow, having a beginner's mind, being a lifelong student and more!
