I met Justin when he was 13 years old. I was his off season baseball coach and trainer and became very close with his family. My wife Chelsea babysat his younger brother, his dad was a mentor to me as I was getting my life together and his mom brought me to one of my first Crossfit classes.\\xa0

Justin and I both lost our fathers at an extremely young age, mine due to a relatively long battle with cancer and Justins dad passed suddenly from a heart attack in his sleep. Either way you can never be prepared when something like that happens as it rocks the foundation of who you are and how you operate. I was grateful Justin came on the show and shared how that very moment changed the course of his life and how he approached the processing of grief and working with other to ease the pain.

He goes by using the self created MIT method which is most important tasks. These tasks are different for everyone but allow you to identify and set yourself up for success.\\xa0 Watching Justin explain all this was surreal to me because when you get to watch someone walk through life and fight through the ups/downs it connects more. It brought me back to when he stood up in front of hundreds of people at his dads funeral and deliver an amazing eulogy about the man that shaped and taught him how to live. Justin mentions that we are never alone and people go through life situations every single day. Reach out, share and remember to stop and breathe. "It helps to create a win".\\xa0

If you have lost a loved one and or are struggling with grief please do not hesistate to reach out to Justin @linkedin - Justin Weidenfeld or by email at Justin.weidenfeld@ironbridgewc.com. He is a firm believer that we are all in this together and can raise each other up in life. We hope you enjoy the show.
