IS YOUR EGO TOO BIG OR CAN YOU PARK IT AND FOLLOW?
This is Travis
I first met Trav around a year and a half ago
If you wanted a definition of ‘stuck’,
‘Travis’ would have been a pretty good answer

And was one of those guys that visibly carried the weight of the world on his shoulders.
He tried to start in Better Body Academy three times,
The fear kept pulling him back in.
𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲, 𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐦
His pain was so persistent
That his only option for living,
Was to kill his ‘𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧’
Fast forward to now,
This guy is probably the bravest MF I have ever met
𝐈 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧, 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝟏𝟐 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬
The bloke is 50kg down… FIFTY!
He is strong as an ox and consistently works out
And it turns out,
That behind the self-sabotage, condemnation and shitty facial hair,
Was one of the most handsome devils you’d ever see
His energy now lights the room,
His eyes and smile radiate warmth
And Travis is now a fully qualified Personal Trainer,
And on his way to becoming a BBA Coach
𝘚𝘰 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵?
Probably best to ask him…
But from my perspective, it’s simple…
Simple, BUT not easy…
He parked his ego,
𝐅𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨,
And went all in,
Like all of us, he’s still a work in progress.
But I sit now, next to a bloke I call a good friend
I am BEYOND proud of you brother,
