      About

      My name is Jonny Stofko and I was raised in northeast Ohio. I’ve lived all over the United States, from a little town called Youngstown, Ohio, to Las Vegas, Nevada. My life has taken me to cities such as Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Long Beach, California, and now currently Sydney, Australia. I was floating around all throughout my 20s, you know, just figuring things out. I ended up spending six years in my 20s in Long Beach, California, bartending in nightclubs, in and out of relationships. My late 20s brought me to Las Vegas.

      It is pretty much safe to say that I was the only guy ever to move to Las Vegas to find himself. I moved there with a few different addictions—alcoholism, gambling, a lot of girls, and cocaine, and that pattern of behavior was repeating itself. Then I got involved with a leadership company. That was a huge transitional point in my life in regards to personal development, leadership, and uncovering a deeper purpose for myself. Amongst all those years traveling, figuring life out, I ended up getting a bachelor’s degree in psychology as well as becoming a master graduate from Rapport Leadership International’s Leadership and Personal Development Program in Las Vegas, Nevada.

      When I was 30 years old, I was seeing a girl who was living in Australia. I visited Sydney for a few weeks and again, being an American boy, I went to Oz, fell in love with it, and ended up moving there. I’m still close friends with her and I always think about the opportunities that I’ve received due to that relationship. It’s actually an important basis of my current podcast and latest book I’m working on but I’ll get into that later. I can go on and on about me living in Australia and traveling but I really want to keep this about Ungoogleable—the book, personal development, self-development, leadership, owning your damn life, and holding yourself accountable. Taking responsibility. Searching and digging deeper.

      A year into me taking my personal training recommendations, requirements from Australia as I needed to coach there, I did all the certifications and started a personal training business under my name.

      Sports was always a big player in my life, I’ve always been conscious fitness-wise. The fitness industry really saved my life. Once again, I can do a whole book on that; maybe we will get to that on a later date. But right now, let’s get back to me working out at a health club in Sydney… Now, the business model at this health club they call them ‘sole traders,’ basically, I compare it to a tattoo artist running a chair or somebody doing hair at a cosmetology school, a salon, that sort of thing. One pays rent to the building owner and in turn runs a business through their doors. It’s a great business model for any fitness coach who has certain business and networking skills.

      So there are 35 other personal trainers in this health club, 5,000 members with overhead $25,000 a year—so you pay rent to run clients. I was new. I had never done this but my American hustle definitely shined through. My competitive side took over and after eight months of doing this, I was doing a lot of sessions; a lot more than most people and I still wasn’t happy, I felt like I had to do more. I just felt like I was not fulfilled, like something was missing. I remember very vividly waking up each morning, yearning for the answers. Wishing for a bigger opportunity to fall on my lap revolving around health and fitness. So, I wanted to start a podcast.

      Now, let’s back up a bit. UFC193. It was November 2015 and I was in Melbourne. It was the night Ronda Rousey got head-kick knocked out. Holly Holm shocked the world, all you MMA and UFC junkies know what I’m talking about. I was in
