In this episode, Ash is joined by Tyler Nixon - a Physique Academy coach known for his human-first, no-BS approach to online coaching.
From starting his fitness journey at 17 with low confidence and no clear direction, to becoming a trusted transformation coach, Tyler has built his career on empathy, high standards, and telling clients what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear. This conversation uncovers the dark side of online coaching no one talks about - fake results, surface-level plans, and why so many coaches burn out or fail to deliver.
Tyler pulls back the curtain on what actually drives client success, the uncomfortable conversations that separate average from elite, and how to navigate an industry full of noise and false promises.
