47. Jonathan Ronzio | A Life of Adventure: Building Trainual While Conquering Mountains - a podcast by Arman Assadi

As a professional adventurer, mountain athlete, storyteller, and entrepreneur, Jonathan Ronzio has been making the world his playground for over a decade building an 8-figure business while achieving a work-life balance in all areas of his life.
He is the co-founder & CMO of Trainual, an award-winning filmmaker, mountaineer, and the host of Stokecast Podcast.
He’s led expeditions on 6 continents, navigated teams through whiteouts over exposed terrain up some of the world’s tallest mountains, produced and directed documentaries, competed on season 1 of NBC’s Spartan Race, launched outdoor brand campaigns for global businesses, and works passionately with nonprofits and international animal rescues.
Whether through high-impact TED-style talks or longer-form storied narratives, Jonathan is able to connect with audiences on a unique level, translating his wildest experiences with people, places, climbs, cultures, businesses, and causes, into learning opportunities with actionable insights for each specific audience.
