July 27, 2022 Drain Your Brain
Overthinking can cloud your mind with things that can get in the way of your results. As Shaun trains, he has found mental fog happens to him as well and has found a way to “drain the brain” of the fog and achieve full mental clarity while pushing through his workouts to give it his all. His funnel system is the perfect way to eliminate negative thoughts and find success by draining out the heaviness.

July 20, 2022 Discussing Body Dysmorphia
It is such a struggle to look in the mirror and see someone else, a completely different person from your reality. As Shaun goes through his new fitness journey, he noticed that such an issue can get overlooked. Someone with BDD can obsess with their body image for three to eight hours a day, and although this is not a treatment, Shaun would love to help discuss the reality around it and help overcome some of those tough moments for those who do struggle. He has also asked for help from three people who have struggled with body dysmorphia to share their stories. Micky discusses her struggle through hearing she was not good enough as a competitor and finally finding self-love. Elias talks about the difficulties of comparing ourselves to others, and Carly gets into the negative talk that can be instillment at a very early age.

July 06, 2022 My Stance on Overturning Roe v. Wade
Shaun wanted to talk about this very important topic on his podcast because while it can be very to post and express emotions on social, he wants to get something off his chest. You may disagree with what he says and how he feels, but it would be great if you could take a moment to hear him out to understand his points.
