He shares his journey with stem cell treatments, particularly from Colombia, which helped manage his injuries and improve his health. Dillashaw founded Wild Society Nutrition, focusing on high-protein, clean products, and functional drinks. He emphasizes the importance of mental toughness in both sports and entrepreneurship, noting the stress of business as more challenging than fighting.
