Episode Synopsis

Dan is a mentor of both mine & Jarreds, so to sit down with him to dive deep into his story was incredibly fascinating. Welcome to episode 25 of the Bridge The Gap Podcast with Dan Ballard.
Dan is a mentor & a re educator, who has filled the last 3 decades with a massive amount of questions, suffering, growth and intelligence, which is what makes this one of our longest, but deepest podcasts we’ve had so far.
Dan dives into his experiences growing up, finding an outlet in the gym and moving into the world of performance enhancing drugs. The insight into this world is something I’ve never heard before, and Dan doesn’t hold back. He takes us through his pain and suffering, and how it lead him into the man he is today.We talk on key relationships and transitions, the introduction of Yoga and how that impacted his reputation in the fitness industry. 
There are so many times where Dan has gone against the grain, and with his heart which showed true challenges, but immense growth. I strongly believe there is an opportunity in this episode for you. It’s an opportunity to challenge yourself by really listening to what’s being said, because there’s a huge part of our conversation that may trigger you, or may seem like too much. 
I want you to know that if you feel this way, I was exactly like you. I wasn’t interested in deep thinking and understanding myself, but as Dan explains so well throughout this episode, for us to really take control and understand ourselves, we must start on the inside, and there are so many incredible tools in this episode to begin to learn and develop that deeper.
