In this vulnerable episode the host shares a personal struggle he calls a "fat day"—a moment of body shame and insecurity amplified by challenging blood work and diagnoses of depression, anxiety, and ADHD. He explains how medication choices are complicated by high blood pressure and how perfectionism and shame derail progress.
Rather than seeking perfect solutions, he models the "clear enough" approach: small, concrete steps like deleting restaurant apps, setting alarms, and celebrating tiny wins. The episode emphasizes compassion over shame, progress over perfection, and using values—integrity, growth, thoughtfulness—to guide sustainable change.
