Sunshine Junkie with Lionel James: The Man Behind the Muscle – Stories Beyond the Sea

In this episode of Sunshine Junkie, Chad and Katie sit down with Captain & Entrepreneur Lionel James—a father, fisherman, and fitness fanatic with biceps as big as his boat and a story deeper than the Gulf he calls home. Known for reeling in monsters off the coast of Destin and lifting heavy in the gym, Lionel brings more than muscle to the mic. He opens up about being raised by a single dad, the lessons that shaped him, and the hustle it took to turn his passion into a profession. From fishing to fatherhood to fitness, this one’s about grit, growth, and chasing big things—in and out of the water.
