Episode 2058 – On this Sunday School, Gina Grad and Vinnie Tortorich talk Mardi Gras, creating a life you can be proud of, intermittent fasting and metabolic flexibility, and more.
MARDI GRAS
- New Orleans during Mardi Gras is a lot of fun.
- Vinnie would close down his business.
- He knew people weren’t working out in the weeks leading up to Mardi Gras and during that week, so he’d go to Cozumel.
- Catching coconuts was a lot of fun.
- As a kid, Vinnie loved the parades.
- Once he got to Tulane, kids were amazed by carnival, but for him it was old news!
CREATING A LIFE
- James Reiss, who Vinnie knew, became the King Carnival.
- This kid lifted himself by his bootstraps and became someone.
- He got his stuff together in a difficult life, became a marine, and has since found success.
- His sister also opened the Blue Jean Bar which has since opened 12 locations and she has found success, too.
- Both kids have made the best for themselves despite the odds.
- What matters is determination and vision.
