In this episode I touch on two things that may seem unrelated but are more unified than you would think. 

We discuss authenticity, when it makes sense to create characters, why you should always double down on you, and how to talk to your audience. 

We also talk about race. I tell a funny story involving me finding out I was part black in middle school, I talk about the troubles minorities face in this world, and the excuses that go hand-in-hand with them.

In this episode we are talking about health, fitness, and fad diets. Most importantly the overarching themes behind getting started on the path to health, and destroying the excuses that plague our minds.

Thank you so much for an incredible first season at Brown Sound Podcast. I couldn't have done any of this without your support. It's been a crazy ride, so I went all the way back to the rambling beginnings of the show and tossed in a couple minutes from each episode that got my sides hurting, or made me think about life.
