In this powerful episode of "Grow or Die", I sit down with fitness coach and mental health advocate Jaime Filer. Jaime shares her personal story of overcoming significant trauma, including the loss of her father, and how these experiences have shaped her approach to coaching and personal development. We dive deep into the power of emotional healing, the importance of behavioral changes in coaching, and how to harness trauma as a transformative tool for growth. Jaime also reflects on building strong relationships, cultivating self-awareness, and integrating biohacking techniques to manage anxiety and stress.
