If This Doesn’t Work…
He Had to Become Someone Else | Jeff “Chippy” Taylor Jr.
Jeff “Chippy” Taylor Jr. came in ready to talk about change and ended up telling a much bigger story.At his heaviest, Chippy was 465 pounds. He lost more than 100 pounds, found running, battled depression and anxiety, checked himself into a psychiatric hospital, went through broken relationships and family trauma, landed in jail after a fight in Federal Hill, and eventually found himself rebuilding his life while on house arrest.We talk about recognizing the worst parts of yourself in your parents, learning to set boundaries, losing relationships because you couldn't communicate, fatherhood, therapy, the night that changed everything, finding Islam while incarcerated, and why Chippy believes everything he's been through is finally pushing him toward the person he actually wants to be.This one gets heavy, but there's plenty of ridiculous shit in between.Follow Jeff “Chippy” Taylor Jr. and Chippy Run Club.If This Doesn't Work… the most mediocre podcast within a 3-mile radius.Subscribe for new episodes every Monday.
