Joel Relampagos is an Emmy-nominated executive producer for hit TV shows such as The Biggest Loser, Recipe For Change, and the student debt show Going From Broke alongside Ashton Kutcher. Joel has also worked on other TV shows such as Hell’s Kitchen with Gordon Ramsey, Going From Broke, and Pimp My Ride.
Some of his stories include hiding food from contestants on The Big Loser, everyone being HANGRY on the set, and what it’s like to produce a show with Ashton Kutcher.
Joel also shares his very personal story of what it was like to check himself into rehab after struggling with alcohol addiction. For the five years prior to seeking help, Joel would drink two bottles of wine each night by himself at home. How did he hide his alcohol abuse from family and co-workers? When did he know he needed help?
That experience in rehab led Joel to start a mental wellness program called Change Your Algorithm that offers free 1-hour mental health classes online and in person in the Los Angeles area. Classes are led by certified mental health therapists who provide you with the tools needed to take care of your mind…for free!
