Summary
Jason Nicholls, a personal trainer and outdoor enthusiast joins Shaun to discuss his powerful story of overcoming adversity. Jason's traumatic childhood and experience with bullying led him down a destructive path that landed him in prison at just 18 years old. But in the midst of it all, he found inspiration in the most unlikely of places but one we know all too well: INSANITY infomercials.
Jason shares how his passion for fitness was born out of his time in prison, and how he developed his own fitness program using the principles he learned from those infomercials. He also discusses how he found peace and purpose in his life after years of self-hatred, and how he now uses his experiences to help others overcome their own limiting beliefs and live their best lives.
In this inspiring episode we delve into the power of positive thinking and the resilience of the human spirit. Whether you're facing your own challenges or just looking for some motivation to pursue your dreams, this episode will leave you feeling inspired and empowered!
