What happens when a full-time ICU nurse, deep in burnout, poor sleep, and feeling uncomfortable in his own body… decides enough is enough? In this powerful episode of the Breakthrough Series, we sit down with Nathaniel—a DNP in progress, critical care nurse, and now fitness success story. After gaining weight during the pandemic and feeling stuck in the cycle of exhaustion, Nathaniel joined our Metabolic Burn System and committed to a new standard for his health. What followed? → 15 lbs of fat gone. → Energy rebuilt. → Chronic back pain reduced. → And a 5K finish—without training. This isn't just about weight loss. It's about learning self-leadership, building habits that stick through life transitions (including moving states and working long shifts), and breaking free from the perfectionist mindset that keeps so many nurses from ever starting. Nathaniel shares: How he overcame inconsistency and self-doubt Why 80/20 nutrition helped him stop bingeing and enjoy food again How journaling, community, and small shifts created big wins And what he'd tell any nurse stuck in the "all or nothing" mindset 💬 If you're a healthcare professional tired of starting over, this episode will inspire your next move. If you're ready to stop burning out and start becoming the strongest version of yourself, book a free strategy call with our team. We'll build a custom game plan based on your lifestyle. → DM "METABOLISM" on Instagram or click the link in our bio to get started.
