Actionable Tips for Personal Trainers: Tackling Client Procrastination

Random Fit Powered by NASM

On this "Random Fit," hosts, and NASM Master Instructors, Wendy Batts, and Ken Miller, tackle a topic that hits close to home for many: procrastination and how it can stall our fitness journeys. Drawing from real-life experiences as personal trainers and everyday people, Wendy and Ken break down the various types of procrastinators—from the perfectionists who fear starting unless conditions are ideal, to the overwhelmed avoiders, crisis-makers who thrive under pressure, dreamy visionaries, and anxious worriers. Throughout the conversation, they reveal that procrastination isn't just about laziness. Instead, it stems from complex emotions, fears, and habits that often manifest as excuses or delayed action—whether it's waiting to get fit before calling a trainer, feeling paralyzed by too many choices, or holding off until the last minute to take action. Wendy and Ken share anecdotes from their own lives and training careers, highlighting how recognizing these procrastination patterns can be the key to overcoming them. Listeners will walk away with practical, actionable strategies specifically tailored to each procrastinator type. These include simplifying goals for the overwhelmed, focusing on effort and consistency for perfectionists, translating dreams into manageable steps, and providing a calming, supportive environment for the anxious. Plus, trainers will learn the importance of communication and empathy in helping clients move forward. Tune in for an honest, relatable conversation—packed with insights that can help you, your clients, or anyone struggling to get started, break through the cycle of putting things off, and finally act towards healthier habits.

In this episode of From the Crows' Nest, host Ken Miller is joined by returning guest Duncan McCrory from the Freeman Aerospace Institute at King's College London to unpack concerns of a Chinese escalation in the Pacific to reunification with Taiwan — and what this move could mean for the United States and alliances around the world.McCrory says that defense experts have focused on 2027, known as the “Davidson Window,” following reports from the U.S. Intelligence Community that Chinese President Xi Jinping has ordered its military to be ready to invade Taiwan in 2027. The People's Liberation Army (PLA) is the largest military force in the world with 2 million active-duty soldiers. McCrory says a successful invasion of Taiwan from China could weaken alliances and have devastating economic impacts on the United States… but a miscalculated intervention could introduce direct conflict with one of the biggest superpowers in the world.To learn more about today's topics or to stay updated on EMSO and EW developments, visit our homepage.We also invite you to share your thoughts, questions, or suggestions for future episodes by emailing host Ken Miller at host@fromthecrowsnest.org.

Send us a textWhat does it take to rebuild a life from absolute rock bottom? Ken Miller's journey from Ivy League halls to homeless addiction to entrepreneurial success provides a masterclass in transformation, forgiveness, and finding purpose through pain.Ken recounts his extraordinary life story with unflinching honesty. Born to a teenage runaway prostitute and a drug-dealing pimp, he spent years in foster care before being adopted at age seven. Despite starting life unable to read or write, his natural intelligence propelled him to Dartmouth College. But graduation led to a 20-year spiral into addiction, homelessness, and multiple prison sentences.The turning point came in 2007 when Ken was released from prison for the third time with "no marketable skills." What followed defies expectation - within a few years, he had launched successful businesses, established himself as a speaker and author, and dedicated himself to mentoring others facing similar struggles.At the heart of Ken's transformation is his revolutionary approach to forgiveness. He articulates a powerful framework addressing three dimensions we must heal: forgiving others, forgiving God (or our spiritual beliefs), and forgiving ourselves. "Forgiveness is accepting truth," he explains, detailing how this practice liberated him from decades of resentment and self-hatred.Ken's perspective on personal development challenges conventional wisdom. Rather than pursuing greatness, he intentionally seeks "goodness," explaining how the final 3-5% of mastery might require 20 years of effort better spent helping others. This philosophy extends to his work style - maintaining a minimalist desk with just one pen and one pad - and his approach to emotional wellbeing, giving himself permission to experience occasional down days without self-judgment.Perhaps most inspiring is Ken's capacity for gratitude despite his difficult past. "How do you manifest that gratitude?" he asks, suggesting that service to others represents his answer. Through mentorship, speaking, and writing upcoming books on respect, fundraising, and mentorship, Ken demonstrates how transforming personal pain into purpose creates lasting impact on others.Support the showhttps://bamboolab3.com/

She tells host Ken Miller that the modern debate over encryption and cybersecurity dates back to a cyber espionage operation run by Chinese hackers called “Salt Typhoon” that breached various parties and critical U.S. infrastructure, including wiretapping members of both the Trump and Harris presidential campaigns. Their ability to breach texts and voice messages and access databases highlighted inefficiencies in America's cybersecurity infrastructure – and the tension between protecting American citizens from cyberattacks while posing additional challenges to law enforcement agencies worldwide.To learn more about today's topics or to stay updated on EMSO and EW developments, visit our homepage.We also invite you to share your thoughts, questions, or suggestions for future episodes by emailing host Ken Miller at host@fromthecrowsnest.org.

Send us a text"Hope is a picture of a better future." These profound words frame Ken Miller's extraordinary journey from academic prodigy to rock bottom and back again. Born to a teenage runaway and a drug dealer, Ken's early life in foster care gave way to academic excellence—National Merit Scholar, Harvard acceptance, and ultimately a Dartmouth degree. But beneath this achievement lurked a devastating alcohol addiction that would derail his promising future.The stark contrast between Ken's potential and his reality becomes breathtaking as he recounts his twenty-year descent—from corporate success to homeless shelters, from intellectual promise to crack addiction, from respectable graduate to three-time convicted felon. With unflinching honesty, Ken describes how his addiction led to increasingly desperate criminal activity, including robbery, burglary, and drug dealing, each offense pushing him further from redemption and closer to a life sentence under Nevada's habitual criminal statute.What makes Ken's story so powerful is the pivot moment that changed everything. After being arrested for selling crack cocaine, Ken experienced an unexpected emotion: relief. Rather than despair, he felt hope—that mustard seed of possibility that prison might save him from certain death on the streets. This moment of clarity began a transformation as Ken committed to leave prison fundamentally different than he entered, working systematically on his mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health.Today, Ken Miller stands as living proof that our darkest moments don't define us. He's built Denali FSP, a seven-figure consulting company, authored multiple books, mentors young Black men, and maintains a beautiful family life that once seemed impossible. His journey illuminates essential truths about forgiveness, releasing shame, and finding purpose through service to others.Ready to transform your own story? Ken's message is clear: regardless of where you've been or what you've done, you are extraordinary, unique, and valuable. The journey from brokenness to wholeness begins with that first mustard seed of hope.To Learn more about Ken: Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kenmiller84/ To Reach Jordan:Email: Jordan@Edwards.Consulting Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ejFXH1_BjdnxG4J8u93Zw Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jordan.edwards.7503 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jordanfedwards/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanedwards5/ Hope you find value in this.

On this episode, I sit down for an inspiring conversation with Ken Miller, whose story is both moving and full of hope. Ken is an author, speaker, and resilience coach who has faced just about every challenge life can throw at a person. Growing up in foster care and later experiencing a turbulent family life, Ken went from being a promising Ivy League student to living on the streets and spending years behind bars. His journey through addiction and life on the streets is not something he hides. Instead, Ken shares it openly because he believes owning your story is the first step in moving forward.Throughout the episode, Ken talks about how he found his way out of that dark place by getting real with himself. He shares that telling yourself the truth is essential, even when it's painful. Ken also shares how big a role forgiveness played in his healing process. Ken makes it clear that forgiveness isn't just for the people who have hurt you, but also for yourself. We reflect on the idea that everyone's journey is different, and that there's no set timetable for feeling better after hitting rock bottom. Ken reveals that for him, becoming whole again took years, but it started with a little step, including getting outside his pain, finding supportive people to talk to, and learning to quiet the negative self-talk.We also highlight how important it is not to compare your pain or struggles to someone else's. No matter what you've gone through, your feelings are real and valid. Ken's message is simple: you have value and are worthy of a better future. Even if you're carrying a lot of pain or regret, you can begin again, and sometimes helping others or reaching out for support is what helps you most. Ken's book, Becoming Ken, weaves these lessons together, offering hope that, with honesty, a willingness to face the truth, and the courage to keep going, it is possible to transform your life one step at a time.About the Guest:Ken Miller is a powerful speaker, author, and resilience coach who helps people overcome adversity by embracing truth, courage, and self-worth. After battling addiction and hitting rock bottom, Ken rebuilt his life with honesty and purpose—and now shares that hard-won wisdom to inspire others.

His story is raw, real, and deeply human, resonating with audiences who are ready to face their own struggles and rise stronger.

From an Ivy League graduate to homeless addict, and ultimately a respected keynote speaker and mentor, Ken Miller has lived every side of the human experience. Now, he shares his journey to inspire others to rise above their past, embrace their true identity, and build lives of purpose. Ken believes it's never too late to rise, rebuild, and thrive. Ken Miller's journey is a testament to the power of resilience, redemption, and choice. Born into challenging circumstances, Ken rose to become a National Merit Scholar and an Ivy League graduate, but a spiral of addiction and poor decisions led him to the streets, homelessness, and incarceration. After years in a cycle of regret and hardship, Ken faced a turning point: he made the decision to rebuild his life. Released from prison with nothing but a small box of belongings and $28, Ken committed to a path of positive choices, resilience, and authenticity. Today, he is a successful consultant, speaker, and mentor, dedicated to inspiring others to embrace their true identity and make choices that lead to a fulfilling life. Through his story, Ken empowers audiences to rise above their past and create lives of purpose, proving that no matter how far one has fallen, it is always possible to rise, rebuild, and thrive.
