#37 - WAZ ASHAYER - Leading UK Fitness Trainer and Entrepreneur

In the two short years that Wassim (Waz) Ashayer (@wazashayer) has officially worked in the fitness industry his achievements are extensive. Co-Founder of boutique fitness business Raise LDN, Group Fitness Manager for global fitness brand Equinox, Trainer for leading on-demand fitness app FIIT, and a Brand Ambassador for Gymshark, to name but a few. 

Although a fully qualified Personal Trainer at just 17 years’ old, his successful modelling career with Select Model Management took precedent in his earlier years. Choosing sobriety in August 2016, fitness has become his driving passion, preferring to work with group fitness rather than on a one-to-one basis.

About the Podcast

Honestly Unbalanced
For curious minds who’d rather have real conversations than perfect answers.
Adam Husler cuts through the curated calm of wellness culture to explore what finding a grounded, balanced life really looks like — messy, moving, and unmistakably human, with clarity that’s always hard-earned.
Adam speaks with people who’ve dedicated their lives to helping others live better — yoga experts, founders, meditators, athletes, deep thinkers, and friends with great stories — uncovering the tools, lessons, and ideas that genuinely help us grow.
Each episode offers honest insight and practical takeaways to help you live with more awareness, integrity, and ease — even when life feels anything but balanced.
For the curious, the questioning, and anyone tired of surface-level self-help — welcome to the conversation.
