The trainer/ client relationship is a delicate balance between providing guidance and accountability, and installing the framework for the client’s own self awareness and responsibility.
I see it all too often that a client relies so heavily on that one hour workout with their trainer, checking the box off their to-do list for their health investment, but then checking out mentally for the rest of the day, ignoring the multitude of opportunities they have to create a healthy and peaceful life.
I am so proud of this man. He has embodied the true definition of what it means to be a student. Which is more impressive when you know that he holds the most prestigious ranks in leadership of our country’s diplomatic security.
I was excited to post his feedback in the hopes of inspiring someone out there who may be on the precipice of taking a closer look in the mirror. The truth is not as daunting when you make the effort to befriend it.
