In this episode of The Front Porch Chronicles, Clinton Foshee sits down with NCAA All-American wrestler, Big 12 Champion, and West Virginia team captain Killian Cardinale for a raw conversation about discipline, resilience, and the moments that shape who we become. Killian shares the journey behind the accolades — from growing up with endless energy, to discovering purpose through wrestling, to the wake-up call that changed the direction of his life. After getting arrested in college, Killian realized the path he was on wasn’t sustainable. Instead of letting that moment define him, he used it as fuel — locking in on his goals and going on to have the four best seasons of his wrestling career. They also dive into the mindset required to compete at the highest level of NCAA wrestling, overcoming injuries, leadership, and what it really takes to become the best version of yourself.

On this episode of The Front Porch Chronicles, I sit down with my brother and teammate, Professor Kenny Tenny. Kenny’s journey is nothing short of powerful — growing up in a tough environment, running with gangs, and facing struggles most wouldn’t survive. But through Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu and his walk with God, he found redemption, brotherhood, and purpose. This is more than a story about martial arts… it’s about faith, resilience, and transformation.🎧 Tap in, because this conversation will remind you that no matter where you start, there’s always a way to fight your way forward.#FrontPorchChronicles #GracieBarra #FromGangsToGod #FaithAndFighting #Podcast Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-front-porch-chronicles--5999017/support.🎧 Front Porch Chronicles — real conversations on healing, growth, fatherhood, and fighting through it. ▶️ Full Episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thefrontporchchronicles🤝 Collabs / Booking: (949) 933-4349 • [email protected]🔔 Subscribe & drop a comment—tell us what hit home.

Amberlee Cuaresma’s story is one of survival, strength, and raw truth. She grew up in a world of violence and trauma, raised in a Hells Angel household where survival meant impossible choices no child should face. Despite everything, she rose above—becoming a certified victims advocate and self-defense instructor, using her pain to empower others. But life dealt her another devastating blow. Last year, Amberlee faced the unimaginable when she walked in to find her 22-year-old son had taken his own life. This conversation is about resilience, the weight of grief, and the fight to keep going when the world has tried to break you. It’s not just about Amberlee’s past—it’s about her courage to stand in the present and keep moving forward.
