Fitness icon Natalie Jill shares her “FAT” framework—False Assumed Truths—and how a 2008 foreclosure, 60-lb pregnancy weight gain, and business collapse became the raw fuel for a heart-centered empire.

Key Takeaways

• FAT = False Assumed Truths: untested beliefs that run your life until you bust them.

• Radical transparency sells: Natalie hit “Record” on her worst days—and built her first 100 clients.
