Today, we’ve got an interview with celebrity personal trainer Mark Jenkins

In the episode, we talk about what it was like for Mark growing up in the 1980s in Brooklyn, New York, in a drug-infested area, and how he overcame the challenges of being teased and bullied being overweight in high school.

He transformed his life and body after enrolling in the Navy, and he soon after got the opportunity to become a personal trainer to help others change their bodies, as well.

Mark then shares how he became the trainer to a number of A-list celebrities, including P. Diddy, LL Cool J and Beyonce.

In the second part of the episode, we have an important conversation about racism, and Mark shares many of the experiences he’s had with racism over the years.

From success to social justice, we discuss a wide range of topics, so you’re definitely going to want to tune into this episode.
