Welcome to the Renaissance Bodybuilder Podcast where I am coming to you with many different perspectives on many different topics. This podcast will follow the highs and lows of my mental health journey in hopes of everyone listening to begin the process of looking inward. Think of this podcast as your private insider look into my personal journal entries. With that said, you may or may not know this, but...journal entries can go anywhere! So sit back, relax, and enjoy this epic adventure into this decorated world we all call ”A Brain”.
Look, let's cherish our low-maintenance friendships for what they are and how they help eliminate unneeded stress.
