Eric Leija, also known as Primal Swoldier, is a personal trainer, coach, and online fitness influencer. He is recognized for his impressive physique and his viral workout videos, where he often performs kettlebell exercises shirtless. However, Eric is much more than the curated persona he presents online. And I am grateful that he felt comfortable around me to expose his vulnerabilities and open up to what drives him both as a fitness trainer and human being. We had an insightful conversation about the motivations behind creating content, the importance of growing for the right reasons, and how setting healthy, realistic expectations is the key to optimizing both your physical and mental health.
