In this episode of I Love Your Stories, host Hava Gurevich sits down with author, martial arts master, and mindset coach Nick Suino. With decades of experience training in Japan and teaching martial arts in the U.S., Nick shares how the dojo became a foundation for not just physical discipline, but for living a more intentional life.
They talk about the subtle yet powerful shift that happens when we choose to show up fully—whether it’s in martial arts, writing, or daily habits—and how the tools of focus, consistency, and presence can help anyone improve their mindset and find meaning in effort.
Nick also opens up about his creative process as a writer, the difference between practising a skill and “rehearsing mediocrity,” and why the best kind of discipline is one rooted in self-respect, not shame.
