On the 76th episode of the Jiu-Jitsu Outlet show, I talk to 3x US Open Champ Reece Humphrey - known as "Highlight Humphrey" on Instagram and Spotify.

In this episode, we talk about Reece's experience with wrestling and how competing at the highest levels - like the US Open - impacted his mental health.

Now, Reece is dedicating himself to helping adults and kids integrate wrestling into their lives.

With his new club, OG Wrestling club, Reece is making it easier for adults to practice wrestling and use it as an outlet for changing their lives and improving their mental health.

We also discuss how Reece's music career has impacted his life and how he views music and the martial arts as similar disciplines.
