Wake Up Call

024: From Incarceration to Inspiration - Becoming Who You Were Meant to Be with Aaron Gooding


Listen Later

My guest today is Aaron Gooding, my friend and Personal Trainer whose story, mindset, and outlook on life will leave you feeling humbled and inspired. If you are in a life situation that feels dark, heavy, and never ending, this is the episode for you.

Aaron Gooding is the owner and founder of F.I.T CONCEPTS, a fitness company focusing on functional integrated training and nutritional support.  Aaron is passionate about helping others overcome the difficulties associated with health, fitness, and lifestyle change. Health and fitness have been Aaron’s personal saving grace.

In 2007 Aaron was involved in a horrific car accident, resulting in the death of an innocent individual. During Aaron’s incarceration he had to face many hard truths about his life.  He turned to education, immersing himself in many different areas, but mainly health, fitness, and personal development.

Aaron is deeply committed to being in service to others and is passionate about helping his clients fortify their bodies and minds.  He believes that when we become comfortable with being uncomfortable and have the mindset that nothing can slow you down, you can conquer anything in your path.

  • Just a few of the many key takeaways from Aaron in this episode:

    • Observe the qualities and traits of people you admire and figure out how to grow those qualities in yourself. Aaron found that educating himself and reading books - especially personal development - was the best way to accomplish this.
    • Everyone needs a driving purpose in their life. Aaron’s is being in service to others.
    • When you’re stuck and don’t know how you’re going to get through a situation, lean on positive affirmations to remind yourself that everything you need is inside of you already.
    • Welcome to the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins (that’s me!). I work in corporate sales by day and am a personal development guru and Life Coach by night. My goal in this podcast is to share valuable and actionable tips on what I call the “Core Four” - mindfulness, movement, habits, and growth - so you can build a life that feels true to you. I will be interviewing people who have had a “wake up call” that their good-on-paper life wasn’t lighting them up, and what they did to change that. Join us every week for a new episode of the Wake Up Call Podcast with Alicia Hopkins!
