At the beginning of 2020, I was about 250 pounds. I was unhealthy. I was sitting at my desk, I was eating junk food. I was chugging a sugary soda and like three cans of red bull a day. And I was just not in a good place. Add onto that, starting a podcast and moving locations and, uh, taking on a new business venture, and then COVID hit.

And, uh, my business lost, like I said, I lost about 75% of that income. Uh, we had just moved to a place where our expenses were significantly higher. Uh, on top of that, I was processing trauma and things that I had experienced in my own life. I was dealing with the weight of this podcast, which deals with some very heavy topics.

So I was in a very bad spot. I lost about 20 pounds just from stress. And, uh, it was down to two 35. Um, and even though I was excited, I was losing the weight and looking better. Um, just I mentally was not healthy. I was not in a good place mentally, physically, emotionally and financially. And, uh, one of the things that I started to address was, you know, my mindset and so.

I was able to get connected with a program called 75 hard. Uh, it's a totally free program. It's just a, basically a fitness challenge. I did it with a buddy of mine, Travis Chappell, who hosts the build your network podcast. And, uh, it was just a really, really great opportunity to get to sit down and, um, you know, really plan out how it's gonna improve my body.

So 75 hard challenge before I get into the app, uh, basically means you work out twice a day. You do 45 minutes. Um, Yeah, inside 45 minutes outside, you do a gallon of water a day, 15 minutes of reading a day, and you do a no cheat meals and you have to maintain a diet and no alcohol. Um, and so I did that for 75 days, uh, lost down to 205 pounds.

So I've really lost about 45 pounds in the spring of this year. 25 of that was healthy. 25 of that was unhealthy. And, um, it's just been a really awesome thing. And. Coming into, uh, the end of 75 hard. I really was wondering how I was going to stay focused on my fitness, my finances, my health, my mental health, um, how I was going to improve those areas of my life and not, not just improve them, but just keep this consistency and these good positive habits.

And, uh, in my conversations with therapists and with people who are experts that have come on the show, I've really understood the importance of kind of really healthy patterns in my life. And that's where shape and foster really came in clutch for me, uh, basically. Uh, shape and foster is like a social media platform or mastermind where you get to connect with other people who are focused on mental, physical, and, uh, just healthy lifestyle choices.

And, uh, there's five experts involved with the program who have created 12 months. Programs inside of shape and foster, uh, or courses, if you want to call it that. And, uh, they lean into having a healthy heart, mind, lifestyle, financial planning, all of that good stuff. And there's like two to three hours of video content every single month that you get to go through.

And on top of that, I meant, I said there were five experts. There's actually six, there's a yoga instructor who provides online classes through zoom. So it's really, really cool. And it's just a really, really cool program. I was able to post in there right at the tail end of my 75 Hard about my achievement.

And it was amazing. Like they, it's not like a like on Facebook it's – they call it a cheer – but I had all these people that I didn't know who were in the same kind of area in the same place of personal development that were literally cheering me on, uh, it's called the cheer when someone likes one of your posts.

It was just really, really encouraging, getting to read articles, getting to see stuff from the founder of the company and kind of his goals. I just have really appreciated the opportunity to use this app. And I've encouraged you guys to try it out. They have a 14-day trial that you can kind of test drive, uh, this program and see if it's a good fit for you conquering your 2021 fitness goals.

Again, I think with so many of you who are connected with this podcast or in the group, or subscribe to the YouTube channel, wherever you're consuming this content, this program would probably be great for you. Uh, I, I think there's so many of us that, that just get so focused on surviving that we forget to do things that will help us to thrive.

And, uh, she'd been foster will do just that for you. It's going to help you thrive. It's going to help you really pick up momentum, get connected with like-minded people who are really focused on positive, good energy. And, uh, I think it's going to be just totally awesome. And I really encourage you just head over to the link in the description of this video and take it for a test drive it yourself.
