Summary
This week I am chatting with Joe Yoon, better known to his 1.3 million Instagram followers @JoeTherapy. He’s a certified personal trainer and licensed massage therapist, and his client roster includes everyone from Olympic gold medalists and NFL Pro Bowl players to championship bodybuilders. In episode 102, we chat about how getting kicked out of his major in college inspired him to become a fitness professional. We also touch on exactly how he managed to turn that #hurdlemoment into motivation for a major career shift. He talks to me about his newest chapter as an author (check out Better Stretching on Amazon), and the important strategies he uses to combat impostor syndrome and negativity.
