Hey babe! Welcome back to another episode of the Boldly Courageous podcast! I am so excited about this episode, because my guest today is one of the most inspiring individuals I’ve ever met. His name is Doug Bopst, and he’s here to teach you how to own your story and share your authentic self with confidence. Doug and I talk about his journey from being a convicted felon to being the successful coach, podcast host, and storyteller he is today. It’s my honor just to acknowledge Doug’s authenticity and vulnerability. I know his story will inspire you, so let’s dive into this very special episode!

Who is Doug Bopst?
Doug Bopst is an award-winning personal trainer, author, speaker, and business owner. Those credentials and accolades are a result of his own transformation.
He is a former felon and drug addict, sentenced to months in jail due to being found guilty of “possession with intent to sell.” Thanks to a combination of faith, family, and fitness, he chose to use his time locked in that small cell to beat his demons and reinvent himself. He has helped hundreds of people improve their health and wellness.
Doug is the author of three books: The first, From Felony to Fitness to Free, is about how people can turn a negative into a positive and make the most of their second chance. His second book, Faith Family Fitness, encourages readers to cultivate their spirituality, believe in themselves, and stay mentally, physically, and spiritually fit. In his third and latest book, The Heart of Recovery, Doug interviews many of the most inspiring individuals in recovery from all walks of life to learn what they are doing to thrive in recovery from addiction.
Doug has been featured on national media outlets such as The Today Show, Men's Health, Goalcast, Cheddar, Greatist, Thrive Global, and others. He has also been featured as a guest on various podcasts including Impact Theory, Rise Together Podcast, Rich Roll Podcast, This Life with Dr. Drew, and One37pm. He has also been featured on local media outlets in his hometown such as WBAL 11, WJZ 13, and WMAR 2 and in the Baltimore Sun as one of Baltimore’s “12 Fitness Heroes” in 2015.
From Felony to Fitness to Free, a short documentary about his story, premiered at The Reel Recovery Film Festival in Los Angeles and New York City in 2018. He has spoken to and worked with many companies, organizations, and schools including McCormick and the Clemson football team.
