He truly hated this reality and battled it daily.&amp;nbsp; He had two options to choose from: 1) Make excuses &amp;amp; let this diagnosis ruin his life or&amp;nbsp;2) Take control of his health &amp;amp; rule over negativity. Through faith, prayer,&amp;nbsp; and support from his village, he was able to adopt a more positive outlook on his condition. Based on his journey, he decided to pursue nutrition as a career to help communities of people, especially men of color who also struggle with chronic diseases of many sorts. Gregory is the owner and operator of &amp;nbsp;Clocked in Wellness, LLC., an organization that is designed to transform healthcare by providing services that are male-centered &amp;amp; improve chronic disease rates in different populations.&amp;nbsp; Gregory, earned my B.S. at Georgia State University in 2016 and his M.S. in Nutrition &amp;amp; Human Performance at Logan University in 2020. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Black Men Speak Podcast http://blackmenspeak.libsyn.com/website <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/31469252/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/172481152
