Your Cart is Empty
These past couple of weeks, I’ve been taking a break from writing and really getting into speaking and being on video.
As a result, I’ve been posting quite a few videos daily on our Instagram, Tik Tok, and YouTube.
And we’ve been getting some eyes on the message and the movement we are trying to build surrounding mental health.
If you’ve not seen some of my stuff before, I write about using exercise as a way to battle depression and anxiety.
Because of this, my old childhood friend named Grant contacted me.
He told me he’s been watching my stuff, but only recently has he decided to contact me.
He wanted to meet with me because he moved back to Southern California, so I decided to meet up with him.
It led to a very deep and memorable conversation.
Grant’s Story
Grant decided to contact me because he needed some help and accountability on his journey.
In his younger years, he had a rough childhood of abuse and neglect, which was traumatic for him.
As a result, he used food as emotional comfort.
Grant started his mental health journey at nearly 600lbs.
As I write this, he is 2lbs away from losing 100lbs.
He came to me because he was listening to some of the stuff I talk about and I was really honored by it.
In our conversation we had, he said that his weight was not only JUST weight but the physical manifestation of the trauma he has dealt with in his life.
And that sent chills down my spine because it is one of the most real things I’ve ever heard.
After our conversation, I offered to coach him on his weight loss and a mental health journey for free.
You can watch our introductory call in the video below:
After the call, something very interesting happened.
This idea of some Avengers-esque team started to come to fruition… and this sprouted into something even bigger.
The Mood Lifters
He, myself, and my other client Chris (who I talked about in the past), have decided to come together and create a weekly live show and a Facebook Group.
I might just turn the audio into a podcast too.
We call it The Mood Lifters.
The first episode will be published on YouTube soon, and I’m excited to see some of you a part of it.
If you’re a guy that wants to lose weight while managing your mental health, we would love to have you here as well.
We are excited for what’s to come, and I can’t wait to see what these two gentlemen transform into.
Until then, join the group, and be a part of it.
We want to see you succeed.
Until next time!
