Hollywood is all a buzz with the news of sexual harassment and abuses. It seems as though the world of jiu jitsu would not be touched with the splash back of me too campaigns – that is until Travis Newaza (real name Warren) fired up some intense allegations regarding his involvement in EBI.

Onnit is a company started by Joe Rogan and Aubrey Marcus. From Onnit website:

” Aubrey Marcus, CEO of Onnit, graduated from University of Richmond with a degree in philosophy and classical civilization… Aubrey launched Alpha BRAIN as Onnit’s flagship supplement in July of 2011. With help from his partner Joe Rogan, Aubrey guided Onnit to becoming a multimillion dollar company dedicated to the full range of improving human performance “

At first it seemed as though Travis might be joking but he was quick to clarify:

Eddie Bravo was quick to respond:

 Imagine the worst thing you’ve ever done to someone. Go ahead, think about it. Now connect to the pain you felt that led up to you doing whatever that thing was. The emotional turbulence, the insecurity, the anger, the delusion. Now imagine all of the times that you have punished yourself for doing that thing. All the times you felt bad, the happiness you pushed away because you didn’t feel worthy.
I had an opportunity to remind myself tonight that whenever someone lashes out against you they are in pain. And whenever they figure out what they have done, when all the justifications fade away, be it in this lifetime or not, there will be the unrelenting pain of guilt. The perpetrator suffers because he is compelled by a wound, and he punishes himself for the wound he inflicted.
When we realize this, that all victimization comes from pain, it leads to compassion. The ultimate act of compassion is forgiveness, whether you are perpetrator or victim. People will do things to you that you don’t deserve. You have the right to protect yourself, and you should. But we also have the ability to forgive, to resonate with compassion, which is the salve that heals all wounds.
