The Turning Point | Fitness, Mindset & Health Conversations
The Turning Point
This isn’t just another self-improvement podcast.
This is about decisions. Action. Ownership.
Hosted by Tim Guest — a man who reached his own turning point after brain surgery, depression, and a hard reckoning with alcohol and prescription drugs — this podcast is for men in their 40s and 50s who feel stuck, out of shape, or quietly wondering if their best days are behind them.
Each episode brings raw, no-BS conversations with people who found themselves at a crossroads — in fitness, mindset, career, or life — and chose a different path. Real challenges. Real turning points. Real strategies you can use to take back control.
No hype. No excuses. No waiting for the “right time.”
This is The Turning Point.
