Today I have a really great conversation with my new friend, Johnny Weir. Johnny is a multi-talented individual with his hands in just about every industry you could think of. Many of you may recognize him as an Olympic skater; he competed in 2 Olympics and took home a Bronze medal for the US in 2008. Others might know him from his writing, singing, broadcasting, acting, or fashion career. Think Johnny has enough going on? Think again. Today he chats with me about what he’s involved in now and how he built the platform he has. Tune in for a really fun one, Johnny Weir.

In this episode, Doug Bopst shares his story of overcoming addiction and turning his life around through fitness.

Doug is an award-winning personal trainer, author, speaker and podcast host. Those credentials and accolades are a result of his own transformation. He is a former felon and drug addict, sentenced to months in jail due to being found guilty of “possession with intent to sell.” He chose to use his time locked in that small cell to beat his demons and reinvent himself thanks to a combination of faith, family and fitness.
