In this powerful episode of Beyond the Walled Garden, I chat with Julio Angel Rivera, a martial artist, writer, and mental health advocate. Rivera opens up about his journey with bipolar disorder and how martial arts became both his sanctuary and a way to help others.

From discussing the enforcer culture of jiu-jitsu academies to exploring the intersection of mental health and physical discipline, this conversation offers profound insights into healing trauma and finding purpose.
