    🥊 MEET FRANK R! When you’re the brother of Jess The Runner (EP 49), it’s hard to be anything BUT amazing! It’s clearly in the DNA! Tonight, hear from this very Rocky minded soul - both in word and in action! Doing what’s right and taking care of business when necessary, is how Frank lives his life everyday. (Who does this remind you of?) Protecting the innocent is hardwired into his heart which makes him another example of someone who “walks-the-Rocky-walk”! Body, Mind & Spirit, Frank truly covers all the bases! Thank you Frank for being such a wonderful guest. You're the real deal when it comes to living the Rocky Philosophy! __________________________________________________
