Meet Dr. Phillip Morgan of PHIL MOR FIT

Today we’d like to introduce you to Dr. Phillip Morgan.

Hi Dr. Morgan, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
I graduated from Delaware State University in 2009 with my Bachelor’s Degree in Sports Medicine. I originally wanted to be a physical education teacher following in the footsteps of my grandfather and father.

I soon came to realize I was not mature enough to teach students close to the same age as myself. I went back to NJ where I a from hoping to find employment in my field, that did not work out. In New Jersey, I helped my cousin run our family landscaping business, also worked in a group teaching autistic residents health and wellness, and drove a taxi at night.

I ended up moving to Maryland because I have an aunt who lived in PG county, told her I wanted to come to visit for (2) weeks, and I just never came back to NJ. While in PG County, I worked inclusion for Maryland Parks and Recreation and I was also a special education paraprofessional in Washington, D.C. prior to me moving to Baltimore and starting my fitness career.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
I was homeless in NJ, Living house to house prior to moving to Maryland. I moved (4) of my family members here to MD, gave them employment, and housing so we could all be close.

I met my wife at planet fitness in 2013 and we have been married for (5) years with a son. Both of my parents and grandparents have passed away prior to me completing my doctorate. The pandemic was really rough for business but we always find a positive push to keep the lights on.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Elite health and wellness center that caters to body image, fat loss, clinical movement enhancement, posture, nutrition, and mental health. We also own our own clothing line and alkaline water. We do corporate wellness, in-home visits, wellness parties, domestic, and international travel for wellness.

Networking and finding a mentor can have such a positive impact on one’s life and career. Any advice?
Networking, never giving up and pushing on a daily basis.
