Modify Your Life Podcast

In today’s episode of the Modify Life Podcast, I’m bringing back my good friend Garrett (Thick Skin Fitness) for another real and unfiltered conversation. This time, we’re talking about something a lot of people can relate to—how differently we were treated when we were overweight.

We dive into the effort it took just to get noticed, especially when it came to dating, and the struggles we faced trying to get girls while carrying extra weight. From the double standards to the straight-up wild experiences, we keep it real about what it was like back then versus now.

This is a serious conversation, but trust me—you’re gonna laugh. A lot. So sit back, tune in, and get ready for an episode that’s raw, relatable, and ridiculously entertaining! 🎙🔥
