Life's Issues with Lauren Jawno with special guest Karlton Meadows & Mary A. Perez:

Karlton Meadows - Once a sickly, scrawny, last picked, bench-riding kid with little to no athleticism, Karlton dreamed of being a champion athlete & fitness model. Against seemingly unbeatable odds he not only became a sponsored athlete, an international Fitness Authority, published author and fitness model; he packaged his experience and specialized education into a method called Body Engineered which has helped him lead his clients from frustration to fruition regarding their health, fitness, wellness and quality of life goals. He uses the techniques himself as he prepares to Win the Gold at the 2016 Summer Olympic in Rio as the Best 800 meter runner of all time. Sounds impossible? Good, he has made the impossible possible for himself as well as for many of his clients.

Mary A. Perez - I am a noted writer, author and blogger born in the Bronx to Puerto Rican parents. I grew up running the streets of Miami until my late teens. My award-winning essays have been featured in The Latino Author, La Respuesta Magazine and Sofrito for Your Soul. My debut memoir, Running in Heels: A Memoir of Grit and Grace (Chart House Press, 2015) has received rave reviews and the fans keep multiplying. I now reside in Houston, Texas where I am blessed to be the mother of four grown children, "Mimi" to a couple of gorgeous grandchildren, and happily married (the second time around) to a phenomenal man for twenty-one years.
