The Life of YOU: Javeno McLean on Movement, Mindset & Living Without Limits

Welcome to The Life of YOU! The bonus series where we tackle your dilemmas and share advice to navigate life’s trickier moments. This week, I’m joined by the incredible Javeno McLean—personal trainer, community champion, and author of You Are Not Your Limits. Known for his viral videos that show people with disabilities achieving extraordinary things, Javeno’s message is simple: movement is for everyone. Together, we answer your questions about motivation, illness, self-confidence, parenting teens, and how to stop caring what other people think. Javeno offers practical advice and powerful reframes to help you move your body, quiet your inner critic, and fall back in love with who you are—just as you are. Today: 💬 Ellie wants to move again after chronic illness—but keeps comparing herself to the person she used to be. 🎮 Naomi worries her teenage son has lost interest in physio—how can she support him without nagging? 🧠 Lucas is done with diet culture—but still battles gym anxiety. Can you learn to move for joy, not punishment? WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU 🗣 Got a question or a story to share?
