Battle Harder
The Battle Harder Podcast is for high-performing professionals who are carrying more pressure than they can ignore.
Hosted by Coach Rob, the show explores what happens when discipline, responsibility, and ambition go unchecked — and how to regain clarity, structure, and control before burnout, identity loss, or family damage becomes irreversible.
Each episode features real conversations with leaders, veterans, entrepreneurs, and high performers who have been tested by pressure and understand the cost of staying in the fight too long without restructuring their life.
If you’re driven, exhausted, and know something has to change — this podcast is for you.

Mitch opens up about his time in the SEALs, the lessons that built his mental toughness, and how he turned his pain into purpose through business, fitness, and service. From losing millions to rebuilding his mission, this episode is a masterclass in discipline, truth, and self-leadership.
