To be Empathetic, Put Yourself In Their Shoes | Drew Manning

Today we welcome Drew Manning, the man behind the Fit2Fat2Fit story.  You have likely heard Drew's crazy story, but if not, let me give you a little teaser.  Drew was a personal trainer who was struggling to relate to and empathize with his clients since he had always been fit, healthy, and never overweight.  In an attempt to glean a bit of empathy for the people he was working with, he intentionally put on 75 pounds of fat by eating a diet that was highly processed, convenient, affordable and hyper-palatable (AKA - The Standard American Diet).  BUT, Drew didn't stop there.  He then went through the arduous task of losing those 75 pounds so that he could truly understand what weight loss was like for his clients.  Talk about a client-centered approach! Drew is now an author and sought-after speaker who shares what he learned during his experiment and the years following.  To say that Drew's transformation went beyond the physical transformation that he saw would be a massive understatement.  We know that you will love listening to this conversation!
