The Follow Through Podcast
Follow‑Through is a podcast hosted by Erika Reid and John Schessler Jr. about breaking expectations and showing up after motivation fades.
Erika brings her perspective as a mother, fitness advocate, and longtime voice in health, nutrition, and macros. John brings his background in behavior intervention, sports psychology, mental performance, and men’s health.
Together, they explore strength, mental health, identity, and consistency through honest conversations from both women’s and men’s perspectives.
This isn’t about hype or perfection. It’s about building resilience, sustainable systems, and showing up through real phases of life.
Breaking expectations. Showing up anyway.
Built for real life. Not perfect conditions.
