The Sisu Way  show

Summary:  <br>  Val Voboril is the everyday woman with super-powered fitness.  She is a mother, 4th Grade teacher, and a 6-time CrossFit Games Athlete.  But these titles do not define her. The quality of her character is shown through her resilient spirit, her unconquerable soul, and her commitment to teaching kids that they have the power to choose strength.<br> Val’s successes has not come without a dip, a trial of “failure.” Despite her almost super-human powers, in 2015 at the CrossFit Games California Regional, Val doubted herself and felt the fear of disappointing others by failing to meet certain standards. This is a place we have all been. We have all been knocked down, but that’s not where we have to stay.  She thought about the kind of message she wanted to send to her daughter, her students, fans, and the community.<br> Her dad asked her:<br> What do you want the story to be to tell your daughter? That you pulled through, gave up, or persevered when it was hard?<br> When faced with adversity, we have a choice. Val found strength in having fun and connecting to the community. She used strength and love to conquer. Val remembered to smile. Through this simple act, Val showed the power of having fun. That Health is Wealth. In turn, through her unconquerable spirit she prevailed in competition and triumphed over her own adversity.<br> Val is not only a role model to the CrossFit community, she leads the way by teaching her students the importance of a positive attitude and how to get themselves out of a dip. This mindset and indomitable spirit is why we at The Sisu Way are proud to welcome Val as our first guest.<br> Vals website: <a href="http://justval.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Just Val</a><br> Instagrams to follow: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/valvoboril/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@valvoboril</a>  <a href="https://www.instagram.com/1scottmcgee/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@1scottmcgee</a>  <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thesisuway/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@thesisuway</a><br> Books: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Art-Living-Classical-Happiness-Effectiveness/dp/0061286052" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Art of Living</a><br> <a href="https://dailystoic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daily Stoic</a><br> Temet Nosce – Know Thyself<br>
