On this week’s episode of the Escape Your Limits Podcast, our guest today suffered from a traumatic brain injury in his early life which catapulted him into finding his passion in holistic health and fitness. At the start of Steve Jordan’s career, he became a personal trainer at the White House under the Clinton administration.
After his time at the White House, he became a celebrity trainer who helped coach and transform some of the world’s most influential people including A-list celebrities, professional athletes, titans of industries, and all those committed to improving their health and fitness. Recently, he released a book called “22 Ways to Optimal Health & Fitness.”
