Level Up! With Shay

Everyone has struggles – whether it’s with drugs and alcohol, self-esteem, family issues; I could go on and on. But as we’ve all probably heard before, “It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” (Epictetus). We have the choice to sulk in our shortages or our insecurities, but we also have the choice to fight for ourselves and make ourselves better human beings. Day in and day out. 

Yancy Berry is the latter of those human beings. After growing up in a single mother household, started drinking at 17, and losing the closest person to him – his brother – at 20, he could have given a lot of reasons to live the rest of his life in struggle and chaos. But he didn’t. Instead, he took a deep dive into personal development books (even while he was still drinking and doing drugs), he gained confidence while working at a teddy bear company doing data entry, and he had an awesome 4-year career as a financial advisor, but did not feel the passion for it, so he left. 

This is only part of his amazing story. 

He now is KILLING IT in Los Angeles as a Personal Trainer and a Certified Life Coach. You can feel his energy anytime you’re around him and it really shows, even in a podcast! Thanks to Yancy for always BRINGING IT and thank you to YOU for showing up! It’s time to Level Up!
