Hear military vet turned fitness trainer and yoga enthusiast Ace Cauthen talk about growing up in Shreveport, Louisiana and why he split time between his parents and grandparents from an early age, how his grandparents instilled in him a tough work ethic that has stuck with him to this day, his path to join the military after high school and the ensuing 10 years spent serving (including some high-intensity situations overseas), a series of subsequent moves afterwards that eventually brought him to Portland, Oregon, his struggles with anger and how (reluctantly) seeing a therapist opened the doors to healing, becoming a trainer, and, later, to a very pivotal yoga retreat that broke him open emotionally and planted the seeds that would evolve into his newest life/career move: Free Space Co, and much more!
