• What Jarrod learned from working with Charlie
• Biggest switch in his life
• Family history that inspired Jarrod to be a better dad
• Advice for anyone who is still hesitant in asking for help

Maintaining focus on your fitness goals when tragedy happens can be difficult. Some people lose passion and, in turn, do not lose any of the weight they intended to lose, or worse, gain all the weight back. But today’s guest used the passing of his brother as inspiration to get his life on track not only for himself, but for his kids.

Take a listen to one of CJ Coaching’s clients, Jarrod McKinney, as he shares with Charlie how he got into fitness and the impact it has done on his family. Jarrod also challenges anyone that if he can do it in his 50s, then anyone can do it in your 20s or 30s!

“Finding the rhythm of making it part of my weekly and daily routine has been the biggest switch for me and just accepting it as a lifestyle change.”

In this episode:

• Getting to know Frank Rich and Rebuilt Recovery
• What causes addiction?
• Why the woman should not be involved in the recovery process
• How commitment is a big factor in recovery

Whether you are a guy in your early 20s or your late 50s, you have definitely been immersed in the world of porn one way or another. But did you know that just like smoking or drinking, you can get addicted to porn as well? Joining Charlie in this episode is former body builder entrepreneur, the founder, and CEO of Rebuilt Recovery, Frank Rich.

They sit down to talk about everything surrounding porn addiction. Frank also discusses the steps on how you can start your recovery. As humans, when we are told that we can’t have something, we try to figure out a way to get it without anybody knowing. So stop telling yourself that you can’t have something – become the person that no longer wants that thing.

“Identify that there is a problem but actually take it a step deeper and identify how that problem is having a negative impact on you.”

• What foods to have in your diet
• Things to avoid when you are going through menopause

Menopause can happen in your 50s, 60s, or even in your early 20s or 30s. The timing is different for everyone, but it is bound to happen. As your body goes through different changes due to the shift in hormones, some may realize that they have a hard time losing belly fat, or some will see weight gain. In today’s episode, coach Jade Simmons is back to join Charlie and speaks about menopause, its misconceptions of it, and how to optimize fat loss while going through it.

Tune in to find out what aspects of your life you need to focus on and how to manage your body’s reaction as you go through perimenopause and menopause. Plus, learn how you can regulate your stress levels. If you can change the way you look at things, going through menopause isn’t a negative thing – it’s just that we can experience some negative side effects while we are having that change. Embrace what’s happening.

“If these changes happen too quickly and you don’t adapt to the changes, you will experience side effects.”
