In Loving Memory: Lessons from My Friend Chris O'Donnell

In Loving Memory of Chris O'Donnell: Lessons on Fitness, Mental Health, and Compassion

We're revisiting my very first podcast interview with the late Chris O'Donnell, a passionate fitness enthusiast and mental health advocate. Chris was one of the most supportive, loving, and encouraging people I've ever known, and his wisdom and warmth continue to inspire.

Together, we discuss Chris’s transformative journey with fitness and its therapeutic role in managing mental health and overcoming addiction. Chris shares candid insights about the stigma surrounding eating disorders, the importance of community in recovery, and the power of self-awareness in fostering a healthy relationship with food and fitness.

Alex and Chris explore the challenges of navigating social media’s influence on self-image, the value of small wins in combating depression, and the importance of cultivating self-love and accountability. Chris’s lessons remind us of the strength found in connection, compassion, and joy in the everyday.

This episode serves as a tribute to Chris’s legacy, offering timeless lessons to inspire growth, resilience, and kindness.

For anyone listening or reading this - I'm so happy you're here 💙
