Greg Jankowski is the creator and host of IMAGiNE FiTTiNG IN™, a podcast born from personal loss and a powerful mission: to inspire mental health awareness, addiction recovery, and the life-changing impact of mentorship. Fueled by the memory of his late nephew, Greg shares stories of transformation, resilience, and belonging—offering a space where guests of all ages explore what it truly means to “fit in” while staying authentic to their own vision.
With over 30 years of experience as a wellness coach, fitness trainer, and motivational speaker, Greg is also a certified personal trainer and core balance educator recognized by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM). He developed the BACE program—a practical, movement-based framework used in addiction centers to promote healthy living and team connection—and invented the “ON IT” BEAMWORK Balance device, also NASM-recognized.
Beyond his work in fitness and education, Greg is a multidisciplinary artist who expresses himself through acrylic painting, illustration, music, writing, photography, and audio production. His creative and wellness philosophies converge in his work as The Balance Professor™, where he delivers powerful “edutainment” experiences that blend humor, insight, and heart.
At the core of all his work is one goal: to help others discover balance, purpose, and belonging in their lives.
