Lift Free And Diet Hard with Andrew Coates
Dr Andy Fata-Chan is a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Andy joins me to share mindset and wisdom gleaned from his journey from an underachieving and unfocused student to an in-demand mentor dominating the fitness industry, including:
What “I need to dream bigger” means for Andy and for everyone
Is it easier to play small in life
Why changing can become a threat to the people in your life
Why people don’t truly know the real you, they just know the version they need you to be
Why drinking less made career accomplishment better
Why the average person would rather try to slow your progress under the guise of “fixing your life” than look inward and address their own problems and failures
Why Andy feels you may need to experience burnout early in your process
Understanding that success requires tradeoffs
What “The world can’t give you something that you haven’t given yourself” means to Andy
Why people trap themselves within the familiar
And a mountain of more insight into thriving in career and life
