Nate's Path to Sobriety: From Chaos to CrossFit Coach
I always like to say too, on every episode, especially when we get into talking about a program as much as you and I are right now: the staying fit odot page, the podcast, the group- in no way, shape or form are we affiliated with it, endorsed by or any of that good stuff that you have to throw on it as a disclaimer, what you guys are listening to right now, what all the listeners are hearing, are just two people who have experience working a-step program that know that it works for us.
Imagine living a life filled with drunk fights, broken relationships, and run-ins with the law. That was Nate's reality until he decided to change his path. In this gripping episode of 'Staying Fit ODAAT', host Miguel Reyes sits down with Nate, who has been clean and sober for over a decade. Nate's story is a rollercoaster of near-misses with serious jail time and the eventual redemption that led him to become a successful business owner and CrossFit coach.
Nate doesn't just talk about the dark days; he dives into how fitness became his lifeline. Starting his own CrossFit gym wasn't just a business move—it was a crucial part of his recovery. He shares how the discipline and community in CrossFit helped him stay focused and motivated on his journey to sobriety. One of the standout moments in the episode is Nate's emphasis on staying present and taking life one day at a time.
He also highlights the importance of community support, both in his personal recovery and in the special program he's created to help others on their own journeys to sobriety. If you're looking for a story that combines raw honesty with inspiration, this episode is a must-listen. Nate's journey from chaos to CrossFit coach is a testament to the power of hard work, determination, and the transformative role of fitness in recovery.
