Acknowledging imperfections with compassion and purpose with Jonathan McLernon

Strong Business Stronger Marriage

There’s beauty in imperfections and too few realize this!

On the surface, social standards would make people think twice about showing imperfections.

However, when the focus is on the true purpose for these so-called imperfections, you start to see the beauty.

For Jonathan McLernon, it took a traumatic experience of being attacked and nearly beaten to death, back when he and his wife were nomadic English teachers, to really appreciate his imperfections.

As a result of that trauma, Jonathan turned to binge eating to address his emotional distress, and became morbidly obese.

He started hating his body, garnered all sorts of insecurities, and he blamed his big heart for feeling so many confusing and painful emotions, which led to pushing his wife away.

Despite his attempts to create distance, his wife decided to close any gaps by becoming even more committed to their marriage. When Jonathan learned to open up, they were able to have compassionate conversations that brought their marriage to the next level.

At the same time, Jonathan continued to improve his life by addressing his obesity.

After many failed attempts at losing weight through different programs, he finally met someone who understood him. Jonathan was shown compassion and was taught self-compassion, through which he worked on healing his relationship with himself and his body.

Currently, Jonathan owns a nutrition supplements store, is an online nutrition coach who focuses on “brain-driven weight loss”, and he mentors other coaches on how to build sustainable businesses.

Jonathan leverages the marks left by obesity to remind himself of his potential, and he has learned to embrace his empathic nature, allowing him to deliver powerful and authentic messages that resonate and build strong relationships with his clients.
