The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

• 223. Leana Deeb: On Faith, Fitness, and Finding Purpose

  The fitness industry tells women that the more skin they show, the more they’ll grow; but what happens when a 24-year-old influencer proves that philosophy wrong? Leana Deeb shares her radical decision to transition from revealing fitness content to becoming GymShark’s first modest fitness ambassador. This raw conversation also opens up about chasing external validation and why women don’t feel safe in their own bodies, connecting the dots between constant appearance anxiety and physiological stress responses.  CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARYS VIP!: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg  Download the “Uplift You“ app here: https://bit.ly/4irZ6ZW Connect with Leana Deeb Website: https://bit.ly/48cBchK YouTube: https://bit.ly/4ajGlG4 Instagram: https://bit.ly/48AaO0i TikTok: https://bit.ly/4plsFP Facebook: https://bit.ly/4pM5UnP LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/48HyfWu Thank you to our partners H2TABS: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4hMNdgg BODYHEALTH: “ULTIMATE20” FOR 20% OFF: http://bit.ly/4e5IjsV BAJA GOLD: "ULTIMATE10" FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3WSBqUa COLD LIFE: THE ULTIMATE HUMAN PLUNGE: https://bit.ly/4eULUKp WHOOP: JOIN AND GET 1 FREE MONTH!: https://bit.ly/3VQ0nzW AION: “ULTIMATE10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4h6KHAD A-GAME: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: http://bit.ly/4kek1ij PEPTUAL: “TUH10” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/4mKxgcn CARAWAY: “ULTIMATE” FOR 10% OFF: https://bit.ly/3Q1VmkC HEALF: 10% OFF YOUR ORDER: https://bit.ly/41HJg6S RHO NUTRITION: “ULTIMATE15” FOR 15% OFF: https://bit.ly/44fFza0 GOPUFF: GET YOUR FAVORITE SNACK!: https://bit.ly/4obIFDC GENETIC METHYLATION TEST (UK ONLY): https://bit.ly/48QJJrk GENETIC TEST (USA ONLY): ⁠https://bit.ly/3Yg1Uk9 Watch  the “Ultimate Human Podcast” every Tuesday & Thursday at 9AM EST: YouTube: https://bit.ly/3RPQYX8 Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3RQftU0 Connect with Gary Brecka Instagram: https://bit.ly/3RPpnFs TikTok: https://bit.ly/4coJ8fo X: https://bit.ly/3Opc8tf Facebook: https://bit.ly/464VA1H LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/4hH7Ri2 Website: https://bit.ly/4eLDbdU Merch: https://bit.ly/4aBpOM1 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/47ejrws Ask Gary: https://bit.ly/3PEAJuG Timestamps 00:00 Intro of Show 03:35 Leana Deeb’s Health Journey 08:27 Understanding God’s Divine Purpose 14:25 Impact of Faith, Connection, and Community 18:10 Core Pillars of Islam 25:33 Stop Searching for External Validation 31:54 Typical Day for Leana Deeb 36:26 The Uplift You Community 40:59 Material Success Does Not Equate to Actual Success  42:37 Supplementation and Daily Routines 48:56 Intention of Journaling and Practicing Gratitude 53:48 Discipline vs. Motivation 1:05:32 Psychological Cost of Not Living Authentically 1:08:04 What does it mean to you to be an Ultimate Human?
