"I hated who I saw in the mirror" - Fit in Midlife's Jason Smith

Jason Smith is a fitness coach, cover model and the founder of Fit in Midlife.At 49, Jason was drinking 2 to 3 bottles of wine a night, struggling with his health, and convinced his best years were behind him. He felt stuck, isolated, and like life had quietly passed him by.Then something unexpected happened.A simple post online triggered a complete shift in how he saw himself… and what was possible.Within months, he lost over 20kg, reversed serious health issues, and rebuilt his life from the ground up. He's since been on men's fitness magazines as a cover star, and continues to inspire hundreds of thousands of his followers on social media. In this conversation, we talk about loneliness in midlife, alcohol as a crutch, identity loss, and why so many people feel it’s “too late” to change. Jason explains what actually works when it comes to getting back in shape, why most fitness advice is overcomplicated, and how small daily actions can lead to massive transformation.This episode isn’t really even about fitness. It’s about starting again, when you think you it's too late.If you enjoy this conversation, please subscribe wherever you watched or listened.=====Interviews that might just change your life.
