Fitness coach Jason Smith reveals what it takes to transform your physical and mental health as he did in midlife.
Jason is a former corporate executive who hit a turning point in his late 40s after years of stress, poor habits, high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
At 50, he made the decision to change course — focusing on smarter training, sustainable lifestyle changes and long-term health rather than short-term fixes. In this episode, he shares how.
