Episode 512: Anxiety, Healthy Coping Mechanisms, and Recovery with Brad Jensen

The Sober Body Builder Brad Jensen is on the show this week! Brad is a former client of mine who has a tremendous redemption story. He is the founder of Key Nutrition, where he works with his clients to help them live healthy lives and understand how food and fitness can change your life for the better. In this episode, Brad shares his journey of overcoming addiction and finding wellness through fitness, nutrition, and personal development. 

Some of the topics we discussed include:

• Brad shares his downward spiral into addiction and later recovery, which spanned  six treatment centers between 2005 and 2012 and 17 bookings in the county jail (5:37)

• “The gift of desperation often offers a moment of clarity. The gift is to be desperate enough to do something different.” (31”08)

• How Brad handles triggers today and employs better coping mechanisms following his recovery (34:57)
