This episode of GITT Up with Adam Larkin features Harry Hunsucker, UFC veteran, entrepreneur, and owner of Hurricane MMA in Berea, Kentucky, for a powerful conversation on discipline, mindset, and building success after elite competition.

Harry competed on Dana White’s Contender Series and went on to have a three-fight stint in the UFC, gaining experience at the highest level of mixed martial arts. After stepping away from professional fighting, he transitioned into entrepreneurship and coaching, using the same discipline and mental toughness required in the Octagon to build and lead a successful MMA gym.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Life inside the UFC and elite competition

• Mental toughness, discipline, and mindset

• Transitioning from athlete to entrepreneur

• Building and running Hurricane MMA

• Leadership lessons from combat sports

• Coaching, communication, and consistency

Harry is also a graduate of Eastern Kentucky University with a degree in Communication Studies, and he shares how effective communication plays a key role in coaching, leadership, and business.

This episode is a must-listen for athletes, entrepreneurs, coaches, and anyone focused on discipline, performance, and building something meaningful after competition.

In this episode of the GITT Up Podcast, I sit down with Gene Detherage, a man whose story reflects the heart of recovery, resilience, and choosing purpose one day at a time.

Gene opens up about his personal journey through addiction, the consequences that came with it, and the hard truth moments that forced him to take responsibility for his life. We talk honestly about what recovery really looks like beyond the surface — the daily work, accountability, humility, and the mindset required to stay clean and sober.

This conversation isn’t about overnight success or quick fixes. It’s about rebuilding from the inside out, learning to show up consistently, and finding purpose through service, growth, and doing the next right thing even when it’s uncomfortable.

We also discuss the importance of community, faith, discipline, and surrounding yourself with people who tell you the truth — not what you want to hear. Gene’s story is a reminder that no matter how far you’ve fallen, change is possible when you commit to the process.

If you’re in recovery, supporting someone who is, or rebuilding your life after addiction, this episode will speak directly to you.
