Deon Abdullah: From Military Medic to Holistic Healer and Community Leader
#TheDayWithTrae - On today’s episode of “The Day With Trae,” Deon “The Bodimechanik” Abdullah, a licensed massage therapist at Londyn Rayne Therapy, joined guest host Deaunte Damper to talk about his partnerships with Fabletics, Beats & Bodywork, and his training at Ford Sports Performance. A military veteran, Abdullah shares insights into discovering his passion for holistic medical healing while a medic in the military, and how that led to Londyn Rayne Therapy.
Abdullah dove into his transition into civilian life and the motivation behind creating Londyn Rayne Therapy, explaining how corporate jobs left him unfulfilled, prompting him to return to his love for health and wellness. What started as a business venture quickly evolved into a deeper calling to serve the community, particularly focusing on the health disparities faced by Black people.
In a moment of vulnerability, Abdullah discussed the challenges of navigating identity as a young black man, husband, and father within the military, emphasizing the role of brotherhood and community in his personal development. Finally, Abdullah offered advice on resilience in business, emphasizing the importance of grace in overcoming setbacks and fostering growth. He also details the services offered by Londyn Rayne Therapy, including fitness training and manual therapy, and encourages the community to tap into their holistic health offerings.
