In this episode of Coffeez for Closers, Joe sits down with husband-and-wife duo Ryron and Victoria Gracie—leaders in the legendary Gracie Jiu-Jitsu family.

We talk about what it’s really like to grow up Gracie, how jiu-jitsu goes beyond fighting into lessons about emotional control, patience, and resilience—and why those lessons carry into marriage, parenting, and everyday life.

Ryron opens up about the pressure (and freedom) of being a Gracie, while Victoria shares what it’s like to marry into a legacy—and how they balance tradition with growth in their own family. From the mats to marriage, from raising kids to running Gracie University, their story is as much about love and values as it is about martial arts.

That's how your information lands in the hands of scammers, spammers, even stalkers. It's why you get endless robocalls and why ads seem to follow you everywhere. That's where Aura comes in. Aura actively removes your data from broker sites and keeps it off. They also instantly alert you if your information shows up in a breach or on the dark web. But Aura goes beyond data protection. With one app, you get a VPN, antivirus, password manager, spam call protection, dark web monitoring, and even up to $5 million in identity theft insurance, all backed by 24/7 US-based fraud support.

That's just, it's a shocking thing to be sitting amongst such greatness, but I just want to see what it feels like. Yeah, people often ask if there's a lot of pressure for being a Gracie. Gracie family, thank you so much for joining us today. I got a couple quick questions before we dive into it, and this is what I ask every single person who comes on the show. What's your guys' morning routine? What's your morning routine, Victoria? Three egg whites and a piece of toast with a mix of a protein milk with coffee, and then I go straight to the gym. So I don't do coffee, but I do cold plunge, so I jump in, I don't know, it's probably 43 degrees, and I do that a few times a week for like 90 seconds, and then I go do whatever the kids need, which is usually making them breakfast and kid stuff while she works out. Nice. And then you go, you still train after Jiu Jitsu after you work out. No. Depends on the day. Depends. I start the day though. At 6.30 in the morning, it's always up, it has to start the gym. So before I even handle the kids or see anybody, I wake up and I'm out in the house before anyone wakes up. And she's a full time mom, as well as doing other jobs, dancing, and teaching Jiu Jitsu.
