With It being National recovery month I found It important to invite one of my good friends on to share about his charity event in November. I have asked Faz for the last couple of years to come on and share his journey but he's esacped up until now. We were connected by a mutual friend and we stayed in touch ever since. Watching Anthony follow his dream for helping others in the recovery connected to his passion for helping those in the gym. He is the co-creator of Temperance Training here in South Florida which provides a weekly free workout to those looking to connect with other like minded people, get a sweat in and become a part of the community.
Temperance started as a small workout and has grown to several locations across Florida with other gyms adapting their off hours of 1-3pm to include a safe space for the sober community. Like most things It takes time to grow and understand how to best serve the community which he and his coaches have done in stride. With an amazing support group behind him, the generosity of Crossfit Hype in Boca and Delray, Anthony is continuing to show up every day and serve as best he can. Please listen in on how he approaches each day that he gets, his routines, rituals and what he finds most important in helping anyone. Grateful to have him share a bit of his story. If you or anyone you know is struggling please reach out and contact him and the Temperance organization @temperancetraining or @_coach_faz on instagram. Enjoy the show!
