Brad Womack: Broke, Hungry, and Desperate: The Cheeseburger That Changed Everything | MMP #359

The Meat Mafia Podcast

Today we chatted with Brad Womack on the power of grit and resilience in achieving success across entrepreneurship, fitness, and personal growth. We discuss the importance of grit and blue-collar work ethic, building a business from scratch, overcoming adversity and financial struggles, the role of fitness and mental health in his life, the impact of mentorship and leading by example, personal stories of early struggles and success, the decision to participate in the bachelor and its effects, his approach to fitness including training and contrast therapy, transparency about using TRT (testosterone replacement therapy).

Brad Womack is a self-made entrepreneur & fitness enthusiast who transitioned from a decade in the oil fields to owning and managing the highest grossing bar in Texas, the Dogwood. Currently, he is building a fitness brand aimed at inspiring men and women over 50 in their fitness goals. His journey is marked by relentless grit, a blue-collar work ethic, and a commitment to personal growth.

CarnivoreCrowd - CrowdHealth

The CarnivoreCrowd over at CrowdHealth is bringing together metabolically healthy people to share in medical expenses. It's incredible. They're providing an alternative to health care coverage in the form of a community-based approach. It's pretty simple - you pay a monthly fee and then when your medical expenses come up you simply cover them with cash (which is often times 50% less) and then the crowd bands together and splits those costs through a crowdfunding model. We've both used this service for the last two years and love it.

Check out their new CarnivoreCrowd and if you sign up be sure to use code MEATMAFIA for a discount on your first 3 months!

We Feed Raw

I've been a dog owner for the last two years and I can confidently say that nothing has made a bigger difference than feeding my dog, Sunny, raw food. I've been feeding her We Feed Raw for the last 18 months and Sunny has transformed into the healthiest dog I've possibly ever seen (I am biased though).

If you're a dog owner who's tired of feeding their dog kibble, check out We Feed Raw and use code MEAT to get 30% off.
