Hi!

My name is Justin, I'm a father, coach, practitioner, athlete, teammate, friend, and student. Each of those has their own flavor and way of completing who I am. I love to explore, travel new places, meet new people, and experience NEW things. It drives energy into my life and that energy drives right back to those around me!

I'm a metabolic practitioner by trade, I run a coaching business that aids in natural hormone optimization. I use strength training, nutrition, lab testing , therapeutic supplementation, and coaching to optimize the systems that influence and affect hormones.

I personally love finding the root cause to things and finding ways to optimize them, creating the "domino effect" if you're familiar with that; It's finding the one thing that will make everything easier to achieve or negate having to address the thing at all.

I take that approach with anything I'm passionate about: Fatherhood / relationships, health, wealth, performance; Everything lol.

I'm certainly what I would consider passionate about what I do. It's really my life and have gone all in on life optimization. I love geeking out on it.

Travel is a huge part of that puzzle. It literally can reduce inflammation and stress hormones! How cool is that!?

I aim to help anyone I come across so whether you're staying with me, or me with you, you'll have a friend in me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet great people, help others to explore, and to get some exploration in myself.
