To sign up for my coaching: https://ob-health.com/Another raw one, no notes, just woke up. The least impressive thing fitness ever gave me is my body. The real gift was who I became: a better partner, a better business owner, and someone who actually wanted to be here. In this one I get honest about where I started, failed trainer, 60K in debt, rock bottom, and how rebuilding my health rebuilt everything else.I get into why your identity is like a thermostat and how limiting beliefs keep you stuck, why the same traits that build a body build a business, why it's okay to want to look good and want more for yourself, and the part nobody talks about on a fitness journey: how changing yourself changes who you can be around. Big credit to Kelly Poole (@kellykpoole) for the "least impressive thing is my body" framing, go watch our full conversation.CHAPTERS0:00 The least impressive thing fitness gave me is my body0:27 Your identity is your thermostat (limiting beliefs)1:02 The same traits build a body and a business3:57 My story: failed, broke, and rock bottom8:30 Why being fit makes everything else better13:47 How to handle people who shame your fitness15:33 You are the product of your environment19:18 It's okay to want moreWant to change more than your body?
