In this episode of the Brothers of Purpose Podcast, we sit down with Gaz Crosby — performance coach, bodybuilder, and founder of Formula Coaching.

Gaz opens up about what it really took to build his coaching brand from the ground up — with no handouts, no support, and no belief from those closest to him. From being told by his own dad that he'd "fall flat on his face" to becoming a go-to expert in bloodwork, biohacking, and body transformation, Gaz shares the raw truth behind his discipline, setbacks, and vision.

We unpack the mental cost of chasing potential when no one else can see it, the silent war between performance and self-destruction, and the identity shift needed to go from weekend benders to relentless graft. Gaz talks openly about addiction, why most people fail with fat loss, and the real reason motivation isn’t enough.

Whether you’re trying to reinvent yourself, start something from scratch, or block out the noise and double down on your future — this episode pulls no punches. It’s about mindset, resilience, and what happens when you stop waiting for support… and start building without it.
