After college, he made it far in the corporate world but ultimately had a calling to take on his desire to open a Gold Gym. After countless trials in both business and his personal life, he did whatever it took to move forward.

Grateful to have you share your story, John. I know I needed it. Until next time.

Today, we bring on my man Brian Hannaway. It’s important to note, this man has been one of the greatest supporters of Relentless Pursuit since day one. He believes in our message and does everything he can to not only show this but represent it.

-

One word that describes Brian, consistent. Through his training, career and so on. He stays at it, everyday. As he pursues his first natural bodybuilding show, his wife is also an Ironman athlete. Together, they push each other to raise the bar. Brian proves that there are no excuses and that you’re never too old to pursue excellence.

-

We appreciate Brian coming on to the podcast and sharing his journey in great detail. It was awesome to have you my friend. We’ve always got your back and thank you for all you do.

On todays episode, we switch things up a little bit. We introduce to you John Iaccheri of Murfreesboro.com and a few other projects he has going on.

-

This episode is featured on both this podcast and the one he hosts as well.

On this episode we bring in my friend Cassie Boyer! She made the effort to fly in from Jacksonville, FL to tell her story and I could not be more grateful. This story is powerful.

-

Cassie takes us on a journey through her upbringing and background in Memphis, TN. After college, she moves around a little bit over a few years and finds herself back at home. With a love for Harley’s, she eventually became a superstar at selling them. All seemed well but on the inside she battled heavily with anger and a lack of self-love.

-

One night, these feelings consumed Cassie and she pulled the trigger of a 9mm pistol aimed at her face. In detail, she describes this devastating scene.

-

From countless numbers of surgeries, recovering both physically and internally. Cassie shares her experience and how this has transformed her into the person she is today. Blessed with a second chance, she shares this in hopes to help anyone and everyone she can.

-

This is a story that very few gain the opportunity to put out into the world and we are extremely grateful to assist in making that happen. Stoked as hell to know you, Cassie and even more fired up for the impact your story will have.

Today introduce to you Aya Alkazzaz. First generation Iraqi immigrant and power lifter. This story offers an in depth view of her culture and background.

-

Aya takes us back to her early childhood in Iraq and teaches us about the culture there and what it was like. Shortly after 9/11, bombings began in her country and her family fled to Egypt. After some time there, they eventually landed in Tennessee.

-

She goes into detail what it was like moving to America as a first generation immigrant and the difficulties adjusting to an entirely new world. Being raised on her traditional families values was quite the path through childhood in the west but ultimately shaped her into the woman she is today. Breaking away from the faith she was raised on and following her own path along the way. Grateful for her experience, she’s now charging forward with success in her career and has taken all she’s learned to pursue the best version of herself.

-

This episode offers an entirely different view point and perspective into a world that is wildly misunderstood by many Americans today. Thank you so much for sharing your story and opening up about it all. Until next time.

Today, we bring to you a powerful story of overcoming brought to you by the hosts soon-to-wife, Lydia Foutch.

-

On this episode she takes us through her journey through childhood in Smitville, TN.

-

After her time at Tennessee Technical University, she found herself lost. Internally, she couldn’t find joy and self-love. On the outside, a great looking life but on the inside she was struggling resulting in some self harm and dark thoughts.

-

After sometime, she met her ex. Facing similar problems, this relationship became toxic quickly. She shares with us in detail the gut-wrenching mental abuse and physical violence done to her which was rough to listen to.

-

As she shares that heartbreaking journey that led to her overcoming such difficulty with amazing strength.

-

This story hits hard but also shows light and led to her now getting married to someone that is not only her best friend but a man that she is raising a beautiful daughter with.

-

She shares this in hopes to help others facing such situations with courage and knowing that they aren’t alone. Giving hope to those that long for something better on the other end. Allowing this situation to mold her into the woman she is now.

-

This story shows that no matter how things may look on the outside, you do not know what people are facing within and behind closed doors.

-

Check on those you love, check on others and always remember. You matter.

Last week we got the opportunity to record with my friend Ethan Buck of Iron Will PT while he was in town.

-

Today, he is a top notch coach, helping others reach their fitness/health goals. This is something that he has been passionate about for quite some time.

-

The story that brought him here will blow your mind. In his youth, he traveled all over Europe in punk bands. During that time he gained some wild experience and almost lost his life.

-

Eventually, he decided the chaos needed to settle and made some changes. Stoked that Ethan shared his story with us and cannot wait to see what lies ahead for him. Thank you.
