Brad Jarryd
Brad was born in South Africa, but grew up as a shy and overweight only child in Tampa, Florida. His desire to fit in with his classmates drove him to undertake a weight loss journey that ultimately led him to a 10+ year career in male modeling across the country. Finding a deep love for personal development and seeing how money was treated by Americans versus his immigrant parents, Brad got certified as a Finance Coach in 2019 to help fellow models, creatives, and professionals with their money. Upon realizing the strong correlation between physical health and financial wellbeing, Brad combined his passion and experience for both to co-found Empower Men, a 90 day transformation and community created to help the everyday busy professional husband and father achieve and afford optimal health while also allowing men to feel a sense of camaraderie and brotherhood that have been missing since their teens and 20's. Brad’s mission with Empower Men is to help create a country filled with fitter fathers, financially wiser husbands, and greater contributors to their family and community.
