EP 33: Eric Romo on Faith, Fitness & Mindset Transformation

In this episode, I sat down with Eric Romo, a personal trainer and content creator out of Houston, Texas, whose story is nothing short of inspiring. Eric opened up about his journey from making tough decisions as a teenager to rediscovering his passion for sports and fitness—and how faith in God completely shifted his mindset and future. We talked about the power of routine, the discipline it takes to stay consistent, and how fitness became a lifeline that helped him push through life’s toughest challenges. Eric also shared the raw truth about entrepreneurship in the personal training world, the lessons he’s learned from working with clients, and why keeping God first has been the anchor through it all. This conversation is packed with encouragement if you’re trying to overcome setbacks, build a stronger mindset, or just need that push to keep grinding with purpose. 🙏🏽 Subscribe for more faith-driven stories like this and don’t forget to connect with Eric below.
