Description

Join us in this powerful episode of "Holy Alive" as we sit down with Athena Perez. Athena is the inspiring founder of Scaled Nation, a fitness and wellness company dedicated to educating and equipping coaches, gym owners, health professionals, and family members who love and work with individuals that have more than 100lbs to lose. Her journey from struggling with weight and health issues to becoming a beacon of hope and resilience for many is nothing short of remarkable.

You may recognize her name from the documentary Crossfit made about her called Famished, Force-Fed, 450 Pounds—and Finally Fit. Athena's personal transformation began with a profound commitment to her own well-being, driven by the desire to lead a healthier and more fulfilling life. Faced with numerous challenges, she found strength and guidance in her faith, which became a cornerstone of her journey. 

 

Beyond her work with Scaled Nation, Athena is a sought-after speaker and author, sharing her story and insights to inspire others. She continues to advocate for a holistic approach to wellness, and a holistic view of obesity.
