  • Episode 39: Daryl Perry (@yourlevelfitness)

    On this episode, this week’s guest is Daryl Perry (@yourlevelfitness).

    Mr. Two Phones Perry is back on the podcast because like Crystal, I realized that I never actually interviewed him. Daryl is one of my inner circle people that I go to for advice in general and he's also my coach for Precision Nutrition. I've been friends with Daryl since last year and the guy has taught me a lot just from having random conversations in DMs and in texts. He's also kinda funny (but don't tell him).

    Daryl is a coach, personal trainer, podcaster (with his own "podcast network"), podcast pusher, marketer and a very great friend. Enjoy our conversation.

  • Episode 38: Amy (@gemofthegym)

    On this episode, this week’s guest is Amy (@gemofthegym).

    Amy is one of my closest friends that I've met on Instagram but never have spoken on a call until this episode. We recorded this episode and then talked for an additional hour afterwards. She's funny, smart, opinionated and tells it like it is.

    We talk a lot about Amy's background then the conversation goes all over the place from there. I had a lot of fun just talking about anything and everything with Amy and I'm sure it won't be the last conversation we have.

  • Episode 36: Crystal (@reducedfatmomma)
    On this episode, this week’s guest is Crystal (@reducedfatmomma).
    Crystal came into my life during a bad time. After losing weight years ago then subsequently regaining, I felt like a failure and Crystal was that shining beacon of hope that told me I was wrong. Since that day, she's become like family to me.
    I describe her as my annoying little sister but she's more than that. She's a mom, wife, and just an amazing human being. I can't see my life without her in it. And in this episode, you learn more about her upbringing, why she cries so much, and what it takes to be a mom of two special needs kids.
    I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as i did.

    I've been friends with Jess on Instagram for years and this is the first time we've actually had a phone conversation. Jess has had one hell of a year. From being in and out of the hospital for blood clots and other health ailments to caring for her aging relatives, she's been through hell and back and still manages to have a smile on her face through it all.

    Jess loves weight lifting and she also currently on a path to live a healthier life in whatever capacity she can. She's funny and she doesn't let life get her down and I appreciate her for sharing her journey through it all.
