Brad Jensen: From Addiction to a Thriving Nutrition Empire
I feel like it's trying to spread out and I'm appreciative for a platform where I can talk about and just say god, because sometimes I don't want to brush off any listeners or anything, especially if it's not a recovery podcast, like I've been on a lot of fitness podcasts telling my story and I try to not go there.
Brad Jensen, better known as 'The Sober BodyBuilder' on Instagram, has a story that's nothing short of remarkable. In this episode of 'The Super Human Life', host Frank Rich dives into Brad's journey from a young bodybuilder struggling with anxiety and confidence issues to the founder and CEO of Key Nutrition, a highly successful nutrition coaching business.
Brad's early passion for fitness couldn't shield him from the allure of drugs and alcohol, leading him down a path of heroin addiction and even homelessness. However, his lowest point became the turning moment in his life. Locked in solitary confinement, Brad found solace and strength in his faith, setting the stage for his recovery. Now, seven years sober, Brad shares how his faith and spirituality played crucial roles in his journey back to health and success.
He discusses the creation of Key Nutrition, which uses a unique four-pillar approach to help thousands of clients regain control over their nutrition and lives. Throughout the episode, Brad provides valuable insights into maintaining sobriety, staying motivated, and the transformative power of taking control of one's life. His story is a testament to the incredible resilience of the human spirit and the profound impact that faith and fitness can have on recovery and personal growth.
